Sounds just like my 6th grade band. Brings tears to my eyes hearing this. It reminds me of the good 'old days when I was a clarinet player. Now I do clarinet, trombone, trumpet, tuba, piano, ukulele, violin, cello, saxophone, guitar, French horn, and baritone/euphonium
I played this is 6th grade. I'm a high school freshman at the time I type this. Dragon Slayer and Celtic Air and Dance will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart. Edit: 4/21/2022 Jesus Christ 5 years is a long time. If anyone is reading this and wonders if change is in their future, lemme tell you. In 5 years: - I met the love of my life, and get to see him this June. - I found out I’m transgender. - We got grand champions my senior year. - I made it into college and am now working on my associates project. - I have a job and am almost into an apartment. Change will come, dear reader
person; this is hard **laughs in percussion** edit: hello, everyone replying! i played snare for this song and it's honestly one of the most fun songs i've gotten to learn. it was a bit stressful because i was the only percussionist at the time but i practice a lot so i managed to get the hang of it fast :)
As someone who is playing this in their band class (as a clarinet) I can say for me, it is hard learning this piece 😅 however the end is always worth it!! (Our 3rd concert is in March!)
I remember when me and my 6th grade band thought this was so difficult and this song still gives me chills, i miss ya Mrs. Hopkins 😭i think imma ask our band teacher this year (9th grade) if we can play this again😭
God, I played this my first year, first band concert ever in 6th grade. Played it again as a farewell for 8th grade and to say goodbye to the band teacher because she brought so many memories to the classroom, I’m a junior in Highschool now waiting until our final year to get in contact with her again and have us play this one more time as a final send off. I cannot wait
this was the first piece i ever played in band as a percussionist. last year, i was in 9th grade and had never been in band before. in middle school, we were given a choice between band or art. i chose art, and did that for 3 years while the band students were building skill. when we were choosing our electives for 9th grade, i had a feeling i wanted to do band, so i did. during the summer, i made a friend that told me that i should play percussion. so, i did. although i was going to play clarinet, but im so glad i chose percussion instead. i cant picture me doing anything else. i dont have that friend anymore bc we dated and it tainted everything but hes still not a good person. anyways, thats the only thing i can thank him for. since covid happened and nobody had picked up their instruments for close to 2 years, we did this song to kinda get us back into band. it was the perfect way to introduce me. i was lucky bc i had been in dance lessons for the past 6 years, so i already had a good concept of rhythm and time. that helped a lot, and i got the hang of it. i did struggle with the bells, though. i found it hard to learn the notes, but i eventually got the hang of it with the help of my awesome band teacher and older percussionists in my school. i thoroughly loved this piece. i played the brake drum and the sleigh bells. we played it for our 2021 winter concert and i was so sad when we switched music. the first year of band carries so many fond memories, and i cant wait to make music for many years to come. i now am at pretty much the same level as my classmates, and im just so thankful that my 8th grade self decided to take band. this piece makes me tear up bc it just reminds me of that time.
6th grade band I play drums!!! We are performing soon! Edit I'm almost at the end of 7th and I came back cuz I missed this song and saw my old comment 🤣🤣 (btw it went great)
I played this on trumpet in 6th grade band… that was almost ten years ago and when I found the music sheet the biggest grin appeared on my face, I LOVED playing this piece and it was my favorite for that concert… where has the time gone… Thank you Mr.Walder of Pouslbo Washington for sharing this piece of music with us
i’m playing this song this year in 6th grade, our concert is on may 16th and i’m super excited! along with this song, we’re playing tadpoles and a song called march across the seas in the tradition of excellence book 1
Having last played my viola so many years ago, this really gives me a sense of nostalgia from when I played this at one of my first orchestra concerts in elementary
we played this for our district concert, it sounded so cool cuz in my elementary we didn’t have perc. we appreciate you percussion folk even though you slow down our songs, miss your entrances, and not watch the conductor.
i’ve played this 6th grade at all star band, 7th grade with all of our middle school band combined and this year with the new 7th graders. No joke can’t get this song out my head
I played this in band. It is positively my favorite band song.i am also learning to play it on the piano so when and if this song is not on RUclips anymore, I will have it with me forever. in band, I played the trumpet in 6thgrade. Anybody else with me?
Richard Navarro SAME! But In May. And I Also Play The Clarinet. The Only One I Have The Sheet For Is Let's Go Band, But This One Is My Favorite. And Yes I Know That Comment Is Ten Months Old
I remember playing this in 7th grade man 😢 since there was no bari saxophones I volunteered to play it since I was playing alto sax I could pick it up very easily mannn the flashbacksss
Im a sixth grader (Im 12) and am a Saxophone in Van Buren band and this is one of he songs we are playing for our first concert on Thursday. First time I heard this I was like "Impossible" But its pretty easy. Love this song.
In 6th grade at our concert me and my best friend heard the 7th grade play this, the look on our faces when we heard we would play this next year. Fast forward to this year, my friends face was hilarious when i told him i was playing this and he heard it 😂 that was a good time
Basically, when everyone does this song in 6th grade, the low brass doesn’t play, the clarinets are at 200% volume and the saxes are two measures ahead of everyone else. Who can relate.
how many people play in a band, looked this song up and listened to it

Played this song today at a concert. It was a lotta fun. This is one of my favorite songs after Prestige March
As someone who is playing this in their band class (as a clarinet) I can say for me, it is hard learning this piece 😅 however the end is always worth it!! (Our 3rd concert is in March!)
I just played this as a clarinet too, just a couple months ago in fact
i played this as a trombone, and the majority of the song is just D quarter notes
I'm a base clarinet and I love how the clarinets sound in dragon slayer❤️😄😇😊😌
*Bass. Because It's The Musical Kind, Not The Fish
You can stop that right now with your emoji blasphemey

That is exactly what I was thinking! :)
Yea. I have Orchestra and I am playing it. I play the cello. It Sounds different but SOO COOL! I could listen to it all day! Lol.
Aureate ™ I don't play it in the orchestra, I play in the band
MomoMario that's cool, my second choice instrument would've been percussion
I'm in band and I play all the woodwinds
I remember when me and my 6th grade band thought this was so difficult and this song still gives me chills, i miss ya Mrs. Hopkins 😭i think imma ask our band teacher this year (9th grade) if we can play this again😭

Thanks for your whole life story 😅
In high school as typing this. This song for me on the clarinet was easy. Just notes E, F, open G, and A
It sounds very complex, but very simple. It only has the first notes clarinet players learn to play.
ya exactly
Played this in 5th trombone first chair and after 4 years this is still one of my favorites
6th grade band I play drums!!! We are performing soon!
Edit I'm almost at the end of 7th and I came back cuz I missed this song and saw my old comment 🤣🤣 (btw it went great)

Smiggleflobben my friend gets to play the gong and they have been out of school lately so I tell her that the gong is lonely
Cant wait to play this at my band concert TROMBONE GANG

Scrolling through the comments...
No trombones? rip
Nah, I'm here dude, Trombones for the win.
I’m a clarinet but I like the trombones a lot for some reason. I like how they sound but the trombone players at my school are very immature.
I play trombone. I have since I first started band.
nah im here
Isn't there a kind of trombone that has valves like a trumpet?
Sometimes, as I got through each year of high school, I like to listen to my middle school favorites.
I played this in sixth grade, sounded very cool, always one brass instrument still playing in the rest
I play 4th trumpet and I just now got that piece of music from band teacher I love it

I play the trumpet and this is like my FAV band song ever. It sounds super cool
1:11 my music teacher always tells the flutes to count the beats, first it's 4 beats, then 7 beats then the flutes play.
I played this in elementary school. Brings back many memories.
We also did this song at a football game against the Johnston Dragons. (Dragon Slayer just felt right)
Same
