Ugh my band teacher chose this as our opening piece in junior band and I play trumpet and i was like.... excuse me wut. But now it's one of my favourite pieces. Took so much work to get down but Def worth it
Woah, this brings me back. My school used to make us play this every year. I played bells in this song. Haven't played since I graduated 13 years ago. Very nostalgic!
Kind of. I’m playing it for a seventh grade concert and the only hard part about it is the fact that it has so many friggin’ accidentals. (Alto Saxophonist). If you play the same one as we do, for saxophone and clarinet the hardest part is at measure 37+101. It’s fast and there are a butt ton of accidentals and the key signature. It’s a fun piece though. The concert is actually pretty soon, December 17th, 2019. Oh wow I didn’t realize how old your comment was 🤦🏻♀️. You didn’t write it recently so there was absolutely no point to this, you’ve already moved on. I should read before typing.
Person who arranged this song: and there we go Random person: beatiful so where do they breath Person who arranged this song: there's no such thing in band Random person: ummm ok (walks away slowly Oh yeah breathing at bar lines means death in band
@@paulk.221 I find the song fairly easy to play (1st Clarinet) for the most part but I still find it a nightmare for the entire high woodwind section at some points.
Actually sitting farther back can cut off air supply. You need to sit away from the back of the chair and keep your back straight to get as much air as possible.
All the comments about breathing make me wonder if they don't teach staggered breathing in bands anymore. If you can't do circular breathing, that's the next best thing. Just breathe where everyone else in your section doesn't.
Band students: can we breathe?
This song: Haha that's illegal
for real🤣
More like afterburn
Except the drums
@@trombonevr percussion* there’s more then drums
Real😭
You literally get no chance to breathe anywhere in this piece
Most people have different parts so the abundance of instruments makes it so you have more rests
That Oboe I would probably almost die as a flute
Psh. That's why percussion is superior :3
What is this piece called?
@@icydamianc3337 carol of the bells...?

I also play trumpet and it is so fun!
Lol I play clarinet and this piece was also chosen for our opening piece in junior band. I was annoyed then but it’s also one of my favorites now 😉
@@tanyaboston6365 I play the clarinet too! I’m learning this piece 💪
I play trumpet to but our part is really easy it’s just 4 notes the whole time

Its harder than it looks

I remember playing this when I was in 8th grade but played in the High School Concert Band because I was in Marching Band.

Noone:
Absolutly Noone:
The song: Breath and see what happens
Person who arranged this song: and there we go
Random person: beatiful so where do they breath
Person who arranged this song: there's no such thing in band
Random person: ummm ok (walks away slowly
Oh yeah breathing at bar lines means death in band
I’ve played this and it’s really hard on the French horn.
It is very hard
On clarinet I found it very easy, but yeah for other Christmas songs we feel the same struggle.

@@thank.you.rupert hey do you know the song of this arrangement
Playing it for Christmas concert this year, i dont find it to be very hard at all except for like 4 measures abt half way through. 2nd part horn btw
Playing in 7th
me too
same
7th grade has 2nd clarinet and the 8th graders get 1st clarinet
Same anyone 2021?
Same
@@deeznutttss Me lol
My band only played this song once at a competition and I somehow accurately played the French Horn solo perfectly. Both of them 😅
wow i’m an 8th grader french horn and i’m trying to be just like you
@@x3skys heck yeah that's awesome! How did it end up going
Totally awesome. I've listened 5 times!!
My top band played this song and it was beautiful I wish I got to play it❤❤❤❤❤
My favorite part is when the clarinets have a little spot to themselves I played this in 7th I’m in 8th honors now
i still remember how to play the clarinet part from 7th grade
so beautiful and great clarity
Kinda wondering why they sit so far back in their chair
Actually sitting farther back can cut off air supply. You need to sit away from the back of the chair and keep your back straight to get as much air as possible.
@@isabellageiser5120 That's the opposite answer to her question.
@@isabellageiser5120 that's not what they're asking but okay.
There are special chairs made so you have to sit back for correct posture. My band uses them
@@zenpinfloops2813 even with those chairs it's still better to sit close to the front.
I remember playing this in 8th grade. I miss it so much
Okay this is a masterpiece are they professional?
This is beautiful 🤩
This band is butiful
thats concert band the lowest band but imagine honors (top band)
I’m hearing this for a assignment a listening response 😂 2020 anyone?
Merry Christmas to all the soldiers out there
I played this piece last night for a concert, we did so good it sounded really similar to this
I’m playing this for my 8th grade Christmas concert
Chills
I played this in my sixth grade band
same, what instrument you played, i was trumpet
I wanted my band to play this but we didn’t
I’m playing this in 8th grade band and omg it is hard
DanandPhilStan me to
I wish I could play this lol
i have the piece for Bb clarinet🤭🤭
i remeber playing this in band lol
i was trumpet
As a trumpet player with the lead part of the song you almost pass out during this song. Especially if it’s a simpler version than this
Me, a French horn player : hey can I have some rests?
Band class : *NO >:(*
Hebron killing it again
i played this for my sympathy
i played this for my 8th grade band but there’s way less drum than i expected- i played a lot more snare than i hear in this video
Exactly, there is a lot less drums than we are playing rn
We play this in 7th grade
For some reason last year I wanted to play this, I guess I just liked the beat
I’m playing this year in 8th grade Christmas concert I play the clarinet
French horn player, it makes me so happy to hear French horns
arrangement for?
That song is hard
I do this in band and I do tambarine
What school do u go to
@@human510 why?
Which arrangement is this?
Lol we had to play this in seventh hrade and I’m a flute
Can we get an F in the chat?
We played this in 6th grade advanced band too. I am also a flute :)
When you are in.second year band and you are a percussionist like me and always in the back like 😀😕😔😏
