When I used to be in choir we sung silent night with sign language and the last part is just the sign language and no one knew when to clap and we waited 30 seconds until the audience was like "oh"
i like how this comment section is literally just like a time capsule, people from 7-10 years ago commenting that they're playing this when now they could be in college/high school. and I'm here remembering that I played this two years ago for my 7th grade performance lol
Oh man I played this 15(!) years ago, now I feel super old haha Edit: I’m at the last variation and somehow I still remember like 90% of the viola part lol
I'm scrolling through the comments and I see comments from 7 and 8 years ago and they're in like 8th grade then and I'm barely in 8th grade. I'm playing this as concertmaster and I love it. Like it just hits me seeing people say that they're in 8th grade and it was 8 years ago and I'm just like DANG man. Just hits me in a good way.
Ah, nice. This was one of my favorite pieces we played in high school - twice, I think, as we played it early on and demanded to play it again when I was a senior. I played 2nd violin the first time, and 1st violin the last time. So fun to play, and this rendition does it some justice. :)
We're playing it right now... I'm a viola in 7th grade! I'm gonna be honest, it's a little difficult to get the notes in variation 4. The triplets in Variation 2 are also a bit difficult.
I played this in orchestra when I was in high school! Man it seems like ages ago, I graduated in 06. It was one of my favorites, such fun, especially the very ending :)
I vividly remember playing this back in 7th grade, I played 2nd. I have to day it was my favourite piece that year. Then I played it in class in high school on 1st.
When I was in grade 10, 8 years ago, we were doing this song in class at school. I played 1st violin, and was practicing it in my room when my brother, who was in grade 7 at the time, came home from his snowboard trip to Quebec; I remember it very well! Three years before that, when I was in grade 7, the string orchestra I was in at the time played it that year, and I was on 2nd violin. It was my favourite song to play both years!
We're playing this piece this year. Our orchestra teacher is awesome. We're only in eighth grade but he has me and the other cellist playing up in seventh position somtimes. We do go up to third and fourth quite often.
Haha, sphere. That's cool. The CHS I know is in Grand Junction and it's stands for Central High School. But it sucks, because in our class there's only 5-6 violas players. And there's really only two good players. My friend and me(not trying to boast myself). Because the other players can't be in intonation, they can't count or they don't anything at all...
We are playing this song in orchestra. We are going to play it for our district festival and I’m so excited because we made state this year and are also playing this song there two!!! Our orchestra ranges from 6th to 8th graders but I’m in 7th. I also play first violin!GO HONEY BADGERS!!!
you guys sound nice at Variation 4, sometime around 1:45 ish. For us, our director tells us we are good, but we all know we suck. =P Everything we play is a hot mess.... xD
We are playing this in my school orchestra (which only has 14 people and im the only cellist) And a pirate of the carribean song so we are going to all order eye patches!
For a little background ive dabbled with guitar my whole life but i played double bass for 8 years and have been playing bass guitar around middle school and i play that every now and then, ive been playing it more often now than i did last year or the year prior, I was first bass chair for all 7 years I played in a symphonic ensemble. Im 22 now I never persued my music career but I also realize its not too late so I plan to buy a double bass in the near future, hoping the ensemble or group i join doesnt have restrictions regarding instrument colors
Haha we are playing this for fun in our orchestra for the rest of the year since all the concerts are done and I conducted it today. You guys sound really good, its just that my interpretation is different on certain parts. Btw my orchestra did dance of the tumblers for a festival as symphonic. We are an MS orchestra btw, and we got gold rating we beat the HS there that played this really awsome concerto.
@MelancholyWhisper One day, our cellos screwed up soo bad on that harmonic, it sounded like a dying goat watching a horse die. That's how bad it was. But other than that, you could say they are " 'ight ".
I heard the cellos being out of tune too. Maybe it's because the orchestra I play with is playing this and I know how the harmonics could and/or should sound. I don't know but I definitely heard it.
It's very hard to hit it JUST right. We had to play this as well and I played the cello. Very seldom did we all hit the exact harmonic. It get's tricky that high.
Love this song! But it's soo hard to play it!!!! Btw violin player and we are plaqying this song for honor orchestra plus two celtic dances and dragon hunter :D
I can just imagine the audience..."oh! They're done!... wait never mind.... Now? Oh... No......now? Yes! Yes, clap now!"
When I used to be in choir we sung silent night with sign language and the last part is just the sign language and no one knew when to clap and we waited 30 seconds until the audience was like "oh"
That happened at my concert lol
Lmao yeah.
Playing this tomorrow and our conductor instructed us to throw the music before variation 5 hhehhehe
Lmao literally happen to us at a concert when we were playing Eclipse
I love this song, but it kills my arms omg.
Same here
Bro same
When our orchestra played this I had only been playing bass for like a month. The shifting- 😔
My daughter is playing this in school for a competition and she said FACTS it does kill her arms.
i like how this comment section is literally just like a time capsule, people from 7-10 years ago commenting that they're playing this when now they could be in college/high school. and I'm here remembering that I played this two years ago for my 7th grade performance lol

Edit: I’m at the last variation and somehow I still remember like 90% of the viola part lol
I'm not gonna lie, the super cool sixteenth notes trip me up sometimes .__. using third and first fingers all over the damn place.
Awesome! I'm playing this piece in my orchestra at school :)
Same here. I'm in eighth grade.
Me 3 lol, I'm in 8th grade too.
Cassilyn Campbell Wow, were ya'll good at it? lol
Yeah. At festival, we got straight ones
Same dude
I played viola to this also in our district Honor Orchestra ^^ It's always fun to play on these days and this was a very fun piece!
Honors? Which district? I believe that's where I played it also

Does anyone have that old school spongebob vibe?
Dexter Gonzales Yes very much, when I first listened in class i was like wtf this is spongebob.
YES LOL
Ah, nice. This was one of my favorite pieces we played in high school - twice, I think, as we played it early on and demanded to play it again when I was a senior. I played 2nd violin the first time, and 1st violin the last time. So fun to play, and this rendition does it some justice. :)
Bro the viola piece was kinda hard as a freshman ngl
I never liked that harmonic string the Cellos had to play. It sounds better when you hear it in person.
Playing this song for our end of year 7th grade concert!! Love it >.
How'd the concert go lol
When I played this song in 7th I loved it and we took it to festival too. My favorite part was variation 4 :)
TheDreadfulDoor boi I'm practicing it in my orchestra class rn
TheDreadfulDoor my favorite is the ending.
We're playing it right now... I'm a viola in 7th grade! I'm gonna be honest, it's a little difficult to get the notes in variation 4. The triplets in Variation 2 are also a bit difficult.
It was so fastt
@@LaneyAJ I'm playing this a freshman and most of the orchestra is struggling Lamo

Tune Ferret That is my FaVoRiTe part!!!

Playing this in orchestra 8th grade. Violin. I love it :D
We're playing this too! 7th grade viola. Variation 4 is soooo stressful!!
Man y'all are advanced! I didn't play this until high school I think.
This kills your whole upper torso
I played this in 7th grade still one of my favorites
Played this shit in 7th grade, I’m in 12th now. This song still goes so hard 🔥
Go violas :)
Fav orchestra piece when I was in HS. Thinking of playing again ❤️

+The Middle Child Same here except I'm a violin and I'm a second. :( being a first violin is so much easier and you get the melody
+The Middle Child I'm also in 7th grade
+Silvia Winters ya the first violins have a easy part.
+The Middle Child I know right
+Silvia Winters ya
WHO LIVES IN A PINEAPPLE UNDER THE SEA?!?!?!? SPONGEBOB SQUARE PANTS!!!!!!!!

You all absolutely killed this!
My favorite part is measure 100, especially what the basses have to play🥰🥰🥰👌 2:14 - 3:15
You can hear it well if you listen closely
My middle school orchestra is playing this piece at a festival (competition,)
I wish we sounded like you guys, seriously,
I remember playing this like 5 years ago in 7th grade. Very fond summer orchestra memories
I played this in 8th grade. Variation 4 was always super hard but sooo fun
Measures 201 to the end give me chills ugh I love that part. I hope my school can play this that well.
ive been playing for a year and a half almost. i just got this song and i must say the speed is the kill factor.
I played this in orchestra when I was in high school! Man it seems like ages ago, I graduated in 06. It was one of my favorites, such fun, especially the very ending :)
I'm playing this piece in my school orchestra, it was really fun to listen to this and hum along with the cello parts!
Damn I remember playing this 6 years ago.....one of my favorite pieces. Especially the viration after the harmonics
Luv this. My daughter is playing this and she on the first row of seconds. *smiles*
I vividly remember playing this back in 7th grade, I played 2nd. I have to day it was my favourite piece that year. Then I played it in class in high school on 1st.

I have a concert net thursday and i play the viola to this music
I'm 5 years late... but I hope it went well! I'm a viola in 7th grade and we're learning it now. Variation 4 is gonna kill me >.
@@LaneyAJ I know I'm 2 years late but I'm a viola in 8th grade and learning it I agree it is fun.
@@Muscle_Monke I’m a year late but in the same spot as you! Hope I do well for the concert, and hope you did as well!
@@Equa11ysurl hahaha good luck
I played this in 8th grade and again in 9th!!!! I love this! 🎻
now that's how it should sound! I remember playing this
We're playing this piece this year. Our orchestra teacher is awesome. We're only in eighth grade but he has me and the other cellist playing up in seventh position somtimes. We do go up to third and fourth quite often.
Being a second violinist in Middle School means that people still don't understand the concept of flats, naturals, and sharps :D
Love the song but it makes my arms so tired🥲
Frr
fun fun peace great job i play violin im working on speeding it all up but by far my alltime favorite
Play in this for 4 seasons (Viola)
Played the second violin part in my high school orchestra. I
I LISTEN TO THIS SONG ALMOST EVERYDAY
I played this two hours ago. i luv it
No way, my school is CHS and we are
Learning this song for contest, what a coincidence
We're learning this song for BMS. And it's festival/competition...is the directer Ms.Campbell?
no, I think i go to a different CHS
Corinnarine Which one then?
It's probably the one in ND. CHS there stands for Century High School. btw, I'm playing this song at HMS and I'm in 8th grade too xD
Haha, sphere. That's cool. The CHS I know is in Grand Junction and it's stands for Central High School. But it sucks, because in our class there's only 5-6 violas players.

My orchestra is playing this.. Omg. This sounds better then we do.
im a seventh grader and my school orchestra is playing this. But this high school did a fantastic job!!!
how do i play this fast jesus christ my hands hurt
We are playing this in my school orchestra (which only has 14 people and im the only cellist) And a pirate of the carribean song so we are going to all order eye patches!
My highschool group didnt have enough dedication and couldnt subdivide notes properly
For a little background ive dabbled with guitar my whole life but i played double bass for 8 years and have been playing bass guitar around middle school and i play that every now and then, ive been playing it more often now than i did last year or the year prior, I was first bass chair for all 7 years I played in a symphonic ensemble.

We are an MS orchestra btw, and we got gold rating we beat the HS there that played this really awsome concerto.
Our middle-school orchestra is playing this at Busch Gardens, we could take alot of pointers from you guys
this is really good..haha i played two years ago at my old high school, but it didn't sound like this..this sounds a lot better
@MelancholyWhisper One day, our cellos screwed up soo bad on that harmonic, it sounded like a dying goat watching a horse die. That's how bad it was. But other than that, you could say they are " 'ight ".
1:51
screaming whiney bitch that’s my FaVoRiTe part!!!
Listening to this as an adult the key change kinda comes out of nowhere lol
How was I being cocky, I complimented your orchestra!?!
Soooo good!
Got to give the credits to the cellos they had a hard part with those harmonics good job cellos :)
I love this!!!
1:43 for my own reference 😅😅
1:52
It kills the arms thought
i love this song!! i just got it today, being the 13th or December. i already know a 4th of it... i feel so accomplished XD
I remember in 6th grade we played this in chamber orchestra, went to nyssma and got a gold rating
Random brass player here.
This song is so amazing. Strings or not, I'll find some way to play it.
I heard the cellos being out of tune too. Maybe it's because the orchestra I play with is playing this and I know how the harmonics could and/or should sound. I don't know but I definitely heard it.
It's very hard to hit it JUST right. We had to play this as well and I played the cello. Very seldom did we all hit the exact harmonic. It get's tricky that high.
BEST SONG EVER!!!!
haha, this sounds awsome.... my orchestra teacher jus handed out the sheet music for this song.
the bass part is fun in this peice, and the shifting is easy
I played this and I was a bass and damn did my fingers hurt after, especially the part at 1:25 and I was the only bass which made it worse
That's the worse scenario to be in 😃😃😃
Sounds great! My school is playing this too~XD
We're playing this in our orchestra...it's the only song I like that we've played all year -_-;
I played this tonight :)
Playing this as first violin in school. I wish i had half the skill of this group!
