Are there sections of our current Winter / Spring playlist that you find challenging? Are you wondering if you're getting a rhythm correct or why you never know where to come in after a long passage or two of rests?
Or are you simply curious about how fast we'll ultimately be playing a piece we're practicing (say, Holsinger's "American Faces")?
Here's a YouTube collection [please click the link] of the various arrangements we are now working on, performed by other community, college, high school, and middle school bands across the country (there are also a few extra, like "Amazing Grace" and "Nimrod" thrown into the mix). It's a lot of fun to play along with these recordings at home, both providing insight into how other groups interpret these works as well as helping to sense how your own part should sound.
[WARNING: Don't be frightened by "American Faces" (the video shared below). We all know Frank wouldn't really do that to us. Right? Right?]
