it is! I lov eit so much... the songs we're doing from it are...at the end of the day, I dreamed a dream, master of the house, on my own and do you hear the people sing?

Master of the house is by far my favourite though...it's a fun song for the bassoon...(we play it a little bit faster than normal, and I tend to dance along a bit)

we did Work Song/At the End of the Day, I Dreamed a Dream (so purdy :3), Attack on Rue Plummet, and One Day More. Work Song/At the End of the Day is definitely my favorite, and our drill for Attack on Rue Plummet was so much fun xd

Our band just started Blue Shades, by Tichieli
and we should be getting music for Star Wars, arranged by Donald Hunsberger soon.

We just had two concerts, during which we played
~Concerto for Marimba by David Maslanka
~Morning Star by David Maslanka
~Lincolnshire Posy (all 6 movements) by Percy Grainger
(that was a hard program to put together)

Garrison's Commander
Rush
On The Mall March
Dance 1 (something my Shostakovich)

I'm not too excited about this line-up here personally. The first two we already did last semester. On The Mall is a march. (I'm a bassoonist, enough said.) Dance 1 is a very, very, simple piece for the bassoon.

So there isn't much exciting. sad

But I'll be okay... We had some good pieces earlier this semester.
