      @@TheBryceholden i think it's because they're not bracketed in the music sheet i got, but i felt like they were important places in the piece so i put them in there just in case others felt the same. it's been like, 4 years since i played this piece so i'm not 100% sure lol

    This was the funnest percussion thing to play ever. We had everyone doing something. Bass, snare, timpani, sizzle cymbal, crash cymbal, hi-hat, xylophone, marimba, (I had the bells part). All sorts of little accessories. It was incredibly epic.

    I remember playing this song in high school. Gary Gilroy actually directed this with us and the way he moved with the music was just so fun and amazing. Incredible guy and incredible music. Can't wait to work with him again.

    I was a Bass Clarinetist in High School, we played this in 2010 iirc, 1:40 was my solo and HOT DAMN if I didn't love every second of that funky bassline, it stuck with me forever and I had to go down one heck of a rabbit hole to find this when it got stuck in my head earlier today, lol
