At the end of this whole performance.. this was the finale. i cried after leaving. this was my first and only year (i was in as a senior) and i had such a great time with everyone and it was such a wonderful experience. i miss this so much! It wouldnt have been what it was without all of those who were apart of it. NJ ALL STATE CHOIR 2010 is the best!!!
Right, I forget NJ All state has a full-orchestra instead of a chamber orchestra, sorry I came from Washington where the ensembles are about half this size.
Though it's freakin' awesone, altogether, the guys in the percussuioin section make this piece happen, no matter who's doing it. Kudos to you all, though.
@levi99levi Man, the oboe makes the whole thing. It's sinister and dancing around as if gathering support and then the whole thing just explodes. You're totally off about the oboe, dude.
I think he means because the choir is singing what the oboe is playing, the choir should have been more prominent. Even in NJPAC with 360+ high school students, we just couldn't quite overpower the two oboe players who were justbellowing through their instruments.
@levi99levi yeah i agree.. the oboe could have been quieter... but hey i was in the choir so i really didnt hear the oboe that much when i performed it... especially cuzz i was surrounded by all of the other bass 2s in the choir
Too bad Mz. Buchanan had to leave. Shoutout from Tenor 131. why couldn't we have fixed "po-TES-ta-tem"? Either way, woot NJ All-State. Let's pester the NJMEA people about a reunion concert. If at least a hundred-fifty of us ask, they won't have a reason to say no.

Fantastic, it gave me chills. Thanks for posting. :D
@zfoxxy15 That is the constant problem when you have the orchestra directly in front of the choir... balance.
@Icyveins906 definitely
Holy Crap that's awesome. It's like apocalypse music.

This song reminds me of In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins

i think its crazy. I have to do this for the chorus corale.
it was actually four oboes on that part, some of it was unison.
