Opening our balcony door and waking up to the halo trio brought our entire room to tears. We all had goosebumps and stood stunned on our little overlook. Thank you to everyone who put this amazing concert on, you're all amazing and so talented.
this is by far my favorite concert that i've ever performed in - EVER. i've wanted to play the chrono trigger main theme and snake eater in a concert setting since high school (i would play the snake eater stinger fanfare on trumpet as an in-joke with my friends in band class), and to get both songs in one set alongside others like Halo felt like a fever dream. shoutouts to everyone else that participated in this, y'all killed it!! super pumped for the next one :)
Hiya Papaya! I was the Yunaka cosplayer and one of the Galdera soloists. I'm so, so, so overwhelmingly grateful for this experience. I was classicly trained in college but haven't sung in a setting like this in over ten years, so this was simultaneously rewarding and validating for me. Can't wait to perform with all of you beautiful people all over again next year, because there's no way I'm not making this a staple of my magfest experience after this :)
I don't even know this song (and given the google search, I didn't finish the first octopath yet lol) but MAAAAAAAAAAAN, you absolutely KILLED that part!
You folks did SO well! I absolutely love that this lets so many people share in the fun of making music at MAGFest, and what an exciting and ambitious set to put together so quickly! Your soloists especially were fantastic, but it's just a solid performance all round. Well done to everybody!
So glad my arrangement of Black Knight 2000 got to be performed as part of this! Sad I couldn't be playing with y'all this round (since I arrived after the last rehearsal) but hopefully I'll be in that choir in January 2025.
I'm the Keqing in the choir! I've been telling everyone I know about this concert for so long, and wouldn't miss it for the world! I quite literally can't wait for the next one! It was an honor to perform with all of you ♥️♥️♥️
I was the red engie on trumpet 🎺! This was an incredible time and sparked me picking my horn back up. Thank you to all the organizers, conductors, composers, camera people, sound and A/V and of course the players. You all are incredible 🥲
Let it be known that five tubas..... is still not enough! Thrilled to have been a part of this ensemble again, and this will be a thing for me every single year. Can't find me? See all those sousaphones? Not those, but the random gold bell sticking up in front of them? That's me. Can't wait to do it again in January!
There’s always room for more tubas! :3c REALLY hoping I can make it out next year and join y’all in the low end! (I’ll almost certainly need to borrow a horn though… >.
@@FayelinaTubaGirlI don’t have a tuba, but I have a euphonium that can be borrowed, if that could work for you 🙂 I drive to the con and stay nearby. I’d be happy to bring it if it would get used!
Man on man, hecking thank you for posting this, I can now throw this at my friends! But seriously, it was a pleasure watching this live and now to see it full at my own pleasure is a godsend
I'm in the trumpet section! I don't think you see me that much because I'm short lol but the red hair is kinda hard to miss. Thank you MAGfest Community Orchestra for getting me to fall back in love with playing after being out of practice for so long
I completely missed this as we did not stay in rhe Gaylord this year and i was definitely dead sleep this time on Saturday lol. But i did not even know this was a thing! I would love to be apart of it next Mag. Would someone please tell me what I need to do to join?

This is so fantastic to read ♥️ glad we could make your morning a little more majestic!
this was wonderful to participate in! great job everyone!
Hey, that's me on the podium in the thumbnail!
Seriously, what a fun experience. Happy to be a part of it!

You should join or form a video game orchestra near you! :)
@@StetchnikU been considering BGSO lately...
@@Meepston BGSO is great, join us!!!
I can’t not say this, Finny did a fabulous job with this mix! It sounds so good!
Thank you! I appreciate those words!
Agreed. It's wonderful.

YAAAAAAASSSS

I didn't even know this was a thing! I would love to join next year. How do you join the community orchestra??
I was saddened that a work trip prevented me from attending, but I am so thrilled that you and Kat absolutely crushed my arrangement! 🤩
@@UltimaKeyMaster heheh thank you! oh yeah, i never finished the first octopath 🙈but when auditions went up for this piece I knew I HAD to audition :3
I had an atrium room and this was absolutely incredible to wake up to. Unforgettable
Was an honor having my arrangement played by this wonderful group of humans :)
The Sakura Wars orchestral is what brought me here!

gosh thank you for arranging it, it was my first exposure to the music from that machine and I was immediately obsessed hahaha
This piece was thrilling to play in a group and still gets my blood pumping listening back to it! You did a great job with the arrangement 💕

There's one thing I never would've expected.
Suddenly bawling my eyes out at Hoenn music.
Amazing work, everybody! What an unforgettable experience this was.
That Prime arrangement was AMAZING! Always love when composers and arrangers show love to the low brass.
@@PurpleLink33 I'm a trombonist myself so always happy to highlight my low colleagues :-)
what an honor to play with these amazing musicians ❤️ cant wait to be in the viola section again next year!!!!
AHHHHH it sounds so good!!! I’m so happy to relive some of my memories by watching this. It was so much fun playing in the viola section for this ❤❤❤
Glad I got to sit in and play some violin with y’all!
I look forward to this concert every MAGFest, thanks for posting the recording so we can share with folks!
This was great to see, in person. Thank you for posting this. Now, I get to re-experience this wonderful concert.

Oh hey thats me on the BIGGEST CLARINET.
This was S O O O O O O much fun. Just an experience i am looking forward to this again each and every year.
Dang, sad I missed this year. This must of been so cool to listen to live! Thanks for the upload!

Hearing the Halo theme live is always such a joy ❤️🔥
41:30 hiya papaya
Yup that was me lol
HUGE sound! Looks so quaint and peaceful, but it sounds epic!
it was actually over 200 musicians ;)
We can blame the Guidebook entry.
This is really beautiful! Amazing job to all!
What a joy this concert was to play! Can't wait to rejoin the horn section next year!
The way every song ends and rings out into the atrium is the best 👌
Amazing , this is world class :)
So beautiful! The Chrono Trigger Medley brought tears to my eyes.
Congratulations to all involved!
HAH THEY GOT MY BRUSHES IN THE FINAL MIX FOR SNAKE EATER
all in all one of the best performances as musician period! looking forward to next year!
the goddamn goosebumps as I was sitting there eating breakfast not knowing this was on the schedule and going "hang on, is that chrono trigger?"
It was so awesome to get to perform in this group and conduct the Chrono Trigger Medley! Thanks for uploading!
I completely missed this as we did not stay in rhe Gaylord this year and i was definitely dead sleep this time on Saturday lol. But i did not even know this was a thing! I would love to be apart of it next Mag. Would someone please tell me what I need to do to join?
The Community Orchestra puts out a sign up / interest form at some point prior, so keep an eye out for that.
@@magfest great thank you! Where do they usually put the sign ups? In the discord?
It is such a privilege to be a part of this. Thank you to everybody involved!
