Excellent performance. From experience I know how tricky this movement of Hoedown is, the notes being tricky to get under the fingers but this ensemble make it look simple.
Okay so im in the highest orch of my junior high and we tried to sight read this piece today AND IT SOUNDED TERRIBLE im here to hear what this piece actually sounds like
In my opinion this performance, as well done as it is, still makes me yearn for the complete orchestra. The brass in particular is just not replaced by strings.
Gosh I played this song my junior year of highschool and I learned it as a second violin. I was so proud and then felt so defeated when I got bumped up to first violin my second year and had to learn it all over again;; and it was even harder to play that time :'D
@Tiny Hawk64 oh man, you'll get it for sure. If not in your junior year, definitely senior. That's how I got it. All the seniors graduated and my teacher just moved me up to first violin. I think your teacher will see that you really put in the effort so I have no doubt you'll be first pick to be moved up. I'm rooting for you!
@Random One for Stuff for context, I went to a performing arts school specifically for orchestra. Despite that it was still a pretty small orchestra?? Idk if that has any effect on the decision for positions.
@@oliviaudon7821 Wow, I didn't know such a school existed. Anyhow, my school's orchestra is very low-key (there aren't even chair auditions). I don't know what you consider small, but we have about 10 violins in total, 3 violas, and 5 cellos.
Wow this is beautiful, the first time i every heard this was watching a logging video from the early ‘80s, at end of the video the participants cut down the “spar poles” that were 110’ tall, with only an axe, 2 man crosscut saw, and wedges as this piece was played in the background, both spar poles, were just long logs. The sawyers fell the logs right on the little flags - right where they were aiming. Thank you for posting and sharing.
What is a bit interesting, in my junior year before covid hit I actually played this piece I think it took us like probably a maximum of a week or so to practice this piece and then put it in a concert, it's so crazy!!!!
Eliza's Reel. This is what the brief answering (dueling) solo of the first violin and the third viola (?) is known as. A tune within a tune. The Quintessence of a dance at day's end, on the trail, or on the river, when camp has been made, and you are settling in for an evening. In the West. In the 19th century. Or maybe at a corn shuckin.
God loves you nothing can separate you from the love that God has for you Jesus came down on this world so we could be born again and be forgiven of our sins be thankful for that
@@leogavinho4579 yes! I was at a concert called "Fiddler's Feast" featuring a sampling of Appalachian, Scottish, and Catskill fiddle music. They played the specific tune that inspired this. I cannot for the life of me recall the name, though I have played it in my little Celtic band often.
This is the fantastical musical arrangement chosen by The Topless Showgirl Orchestra in the world's first Sexual Theme Park doing Aaron Copland's masterpiece Hoedown as their first number. Musical prodigies from around the world chosen for their skill, beauty & seductive dance steps make up the unique orchestra performing both music and erotic dance.
What the hell is the conductor doing. He isnt even keeping up with the musicians. He looks like a drunk just walked in and started waving a baton around
