This is nuts for a high school orchestra. The concert band at my school did not sound like this!

[@Kønssygdomssamleren]

No... ITS JUST NUTS!!

[@ronnic.3746]

I gotta say this high school orchestra is exceptional, as is the saxophonist!!!
I'm also practicing mendelssohn rn :) To make it sound this good on a saxophone ... this has definitely humbled me

サックスの音はヴァイオリンの音とチェンジしてもいい音楽になるね。しかし技術的にとても難しい、しかもコンチェルトのソリストパートはヴァイオリンでもとてもとても難しい。あなたのテクニックは素晴らしい。テンポが多少遅くなっても音もリズムもきれいなので音楽の完成度は損なわれていない。指揮者もオーケストラもあなたの演奏を引き立たせるように一生懸命サポートしている。特にクライマックスは素晴らしい。いい演奏聞かせてくれてありがとう！

[@rifonaraft8826]

that cadenza was 🤯🤯

[@bruhlmaoo]

imagine being concertmaster in this thinking “hey, that’s my song!”

[@shestewa6581]

Jesus Christ that cadenza. Utter finger warrior.

[@niklashelm]

That was incredibly enjoyable!

[@brandonszczech6516]

Amazing!
You deserve more recognition

[@ediojunio7709]

Bravíssimo!

This made me speechless at 2 am..

extremely well performed ! great compliment -- also very well would sound, if one would play the solo part with an altsaxophone, 1 octave lower ... -- p.s.: in my opitnion, in particular the 1st and 2nd movement (not the 3rd, a pity) are, anyway, two of the most beautiful compositions for solo instrument and orchestra which ever have been written)

Why Do You Hate The 3rd Movement ?
