I love this piece. …
I love this piece. My high school band is playing it. We played before we first went to the Rose bowl, so our band director thought it would be nice to resurrect it. It’s a tough piece to play if you don’t have an orchestra, though we pulled it off last time, I think we can do it again.
And I think the camera was placed in one of the worst places, so the sound is really off. When ‘Deck the Halls’ started, the oboe and clarinets sounded off.

while looking at the music for this piece and knowing that there are tenor saxes in an orchestra i swear that i heard some at about 1.30 – 1.50 the timing was off and i love the oboe sound and i am going to blame it on the camera placement for the lack of balance. i am sure that from the audience the piece would have sounded better but from that spot it didn’t sound good.
