We're playing:

A Lincoln Portrait
The January February March
Chester
The Cowboy (that was John William's 1st movie score)
And a piece that has a retarded name. All you need to know is its a trumpet piece with the band accompanying.

LP is moderately hard to hard due to the narration.
JFM is medium to moderately hard.
Chester is very hard.
Cowboy is very very hard (it's a direct string transcription-- a b***h for clarinets, esp bass clarinet)
Trumpet solo is moderately hard to hard.


Cowboys!
Somehow, they think that in a full band arrangement, the bass clarinets should get not only the viola parts, but the harp part, too.

So far, we think we are playing "Festivity", "Old Comrades" and.."Salvation is created"...We think. Our BD is really bad about changing his mind though.


Yep, those are definitly the pieces we are playing, and we go in less than a week! I like the songs we have.

Our band dosen't do contests...don't ask why.

Anyway, these are the songs we have so far:

The Typewriter
American Civil War Fantasy
Stars and Stripes Forever
Superman(It's a medley. We got it today.)

We had to try out on Stars and Stripes. I got last chair. X.X

EDIT: Added Superman to the list.

ZOMG SO!!
This weekend I have a festival.
It's at UNLV at 11:00
Why I tell you, I don't know.
It's very nice.
Oh yes.
We are doing three pieces.
October, Goddess of Fire, and March Grandioso.
I hate the march...it's so lame.
I did it back in sophomore year.
Lameness.
We got a 1 on it back then, we're getting a 2 most likely.
I hate this band sometimes.
If they would fricken PRACTICE!!
Grrness...

We're sight-reading now, but I think that we're going to play An American Elegy and Variations on a Korean Folk Song out of the ones we have.
