I've jumped around a lot of instruments but I'm currently doing percussion and marching drumline

Cool! 

Here's a cake I made for my school's music night, which is tomorrow. We're doing a cake auction to raise money for our trip.

We can all agree that movie score is the most fun music to play in concert right?

Yeah definitely.

We did the music from HTTYD last year and it was epic.

[Harmonys_Lune_Masque he/him]

That's pretty good. I did as well 2 years ago.

[Calamity_Engine he/him]

World of Warcraft was also pretty epic.

@Canada Lover and I had a band concert last night. In my opinion, it wasn't terrible.

I think so but my band director disagrees. He says they work best as the background to stuff actually happening.

I feel like that may be true, but most soundtracks still have epic parts where the music does become a point of focus. And if the audience has seen the movie, then they will usually have strong emotions associated with certain moments, and that can be really great. Playing HTTYD in front of a bunch of teenagers was awesome because they'd all seen the movies as kids and got really into it.

[The Clarinetist he/him]

I play clarinet for marching and concert and trumpet for jazz.

That was fun. Unfortunately, I got 2nd part for both.

I really enjoy it, as long as there is some fun parts to it, an currently we are playing 'Pass the hot sauce'. I'm not joking

I've played 'Burritos to Go'. Again, not joking.

Marching and concert flute, our jazz band is all guys and I’m not about to be the only girl, I had to do that in xc and am not in a hurry to do it again

Another xc band nerd? Nobody runs cross!

We're playing Bohemian Rhapsody and so far it's going really well! The tricky part is that super fast guitar bit because I have to play it with the first clarinet and he's amazing so it's very clear every time that I'm the one messing it up. It is an awesome song though. You can really feel everyone putting all their energy into it because we all love playing it.
