I still don’t know how to train my dragon. Also jk guys the dragon is still alive 😎💪
Enjoy and thanks for watching,
Rohanna 🍓
Sounds like you’re the only person who practiced 💀
Lol, totally
What about those Altos?? I played this 2 years ago and lemme tell you that part can get hard lol
Played this last year as an alto and it can be very challenging
Fr thooo😂😂
The bass clarinets sounded fine
THE TRUMPETS ARE OUT OF TUNE IM GONNA CRYYY AAAAAAAAAA
You’re out of tune
Everything is
Clarinets...😭😭😭
Trumpets out of tune. Horns missing partials. Basically all woodwinds out of tune. Yep. Sounds like high school middle band
Yeah fr
My school concert band played this piece last year, and my conductor let me play it with them (im in wind ensemble, which is more advanced) because i had requested it. Nearly cried on stage. HTTYD has been my favorite orchestral work for years, and I’d been waiting to play it since I was in 6th grade. Last year in 11th I fulfilled my dream. He even put together string parts for it so the younger strings could make it a full orchestra. I’m so happy to see other people playing this arrangement, or even just these scores. They’re breathtaking all these years later just the same as when I first watched the movie and fell in love. Awesome playing ❤
Awww I love this
we had to play this in symphonic band in 8th grade last school year and this is one of the songs that gets played over and over. I get it, it sounds pretty good, but it gets annoying
Im in 7th and I’m in wind assemble cause of our program and I’ve been requesting this song for so long, also because I love this song and reminds me of the movie that as a kid I loved so much, this song give me goosebumps.
AWEEE I WANT TO LEARN IT NOE
My band doesn’t get to play movie pieces/ famous pieces
Wow! You guys really killed it! The dragon, I mean.
LOL! Deserves a like.
LOL
Best. comment. ever.
I think it didn't sound TOO bad I mean wonderful flute playing the solo was filled with good tone and great musicality but you can tell somebody didn't practice over in the brass
OMG IKR, and as a horn player, all those horn solos made me cry, because they're really not hard if you just PRACTICE
as an non-musician i died
@@jingkai7133that’s when you know it’s bad 💀
@@jingkai7133 oh god even the NON MUSICIANS can tell 😭😭
Same is happening in my band if your not gonna practice at least sound good 😒
I loved that you included the sheet music on the bottom of the screen, made it really neat and easy to follow. Truly a wonderful piece, one of my favourites to play👍
Glad you liked it!
Percussion was spot on loved it
my schools percussion was so bad, they made me (a tuba player) fill in some parts, and now im doing mallets :)
As percussionist, I have found no one wants to do the mallet parts
@@baileycarter5141Nah, everyone be fighting for that 4 mallet sight reading, frfr
@@baileycarter5141That’s too bad. As a percussionist, I’ve found my favorite parts are when I get to play mallets.
The timpani were out of tune tho 😭
Whenever I'm in band I'm the ONLY one who picks up my pencil and takes notes on my sheet and it makes me feel so embarrassed. Thank you for showing your own music; love to see that some other people actually do too!!
dont be embarrassed, I am personally embarrassed that I'm to lazy to pull it out.
@@Caff-pv8fg Thanks 😂
don't be embarrassed! my audition music was half pencil and half actual notes. writing on your music is good!
people who write on music sheets are usually the ones who improve, write and circle anything if it helps prevent mistakes
i’d much prefer that people take notes when they know they don’t know a part than play the wrong notes loudly
As a trumpet player, I find it interesting to see what other instruments plzy. Not once have I heard the flutes play all these little arpeggios. Maybe bc we play too loud lol idk. But anyways it's fascinating
Sadly you don't hear us play it because it's too difficult to play confidently 😭
@@noahhomyak9477 Aww:((
As a flute we do play oddly fast arpeggios A LOT
real shit, the trumpet section and the flute section are on COMPLETE OPPOSITE sides of our set and i sit in the seat thats furthest away, so the only time i can really hear them is when we arent playing, and even then its a struggle bc theres a whole army of clarinets. 😭😭😭
As a horn player, 2:05 hurt me physically and spiritually. 😭💀
I died inside
same bro
real
bro fr
goofy ahh horns
You killed that solo!
i too am a flute and we tried to play this at my school towards the end of 8th grade year, as something fun to do until the year ended, but no one wanted to play it except for the front row (I'm a flute) so my band directors gave up. However, the entire front row proceeded to learn their parts anyway and now we all still know it to this day, and play it during band before warm ups
I played the full orchestra version of this arrangement a little over a year ago. I also had the melody at 0:43 on cello and it nearly killed me every time we played it lol
YES !!
As a bass clarinetist, they did very well! It's hard to articulate down low. Awesome job on the flute solo!
However, as a Oboe, I died.
I know! But I believe that the higher notes where even more challenging
Glad to see people are still playing this music. Makes me feel old. I remember playing this piece in seventh grade band on the flute - that was about 9 years ago now. Y’all rocked it, and you especially have a lot of potential on that flute!
I’d like to apologise on behalf of all oboes for the really squeaky oboe/ slightly sharp I can hear lol. there’s always one in every high school orchestra. Also the horns sound pretty good :]
Literally it sucks because people don’t really know how pretty oboe can be be because of the goose sound bad players make😭
That horn duet part was painful 😢 they were NOT in sync
The HORNS werent in sync
bro the percussion went so hard, as a percussionist i am so proud
Got this in my recommendations and upon hearing the first note I paused to grab my own flute to sight read along
As someone playing this song right now in band at school I feel this helped. Great work on the flute
thank youuu, hope you have fun with it :)
As a flute player hearing the flute out of tune is making my head hurt 😭 (ontop of the other instruments being out of tune too)
My band played this last year and it was a hot mess until the night of the concert. We couldn’t decide on a saxophone soloist so that was a fun 10 minutes of arguing
You are really good at flute.
This is probably the best level my concert band can get to if we ever played this piece
HTTYD has always been my favorite movie series. Seeing the the things I love most together makes want to cry😭😭
knew from the first chord it'd be straight fire
Oh God that's messy (beginning atleast) Later on: Dang those horns are struggling
the "no the main character" is so real
The descending triplet thing at the beginning is absolutely awful for the first violins lmao
Violins? This is not an orchestra playing..
heh? this aint an orchestra
If it's identical to how it's written here, just do 1st position with extended 4 to hit the Cnat.
@@aLitttleLoloBirdyou do realize this person probably plays in an orchestra and is playing this song, right? In the original score violin and flute most likely had the same part(and then when it was arranged for concert band violin got taken out) or flutes had something different but whoever arranged this piece for concert band decided that the violin part was more important and gave it to the flutes. Either way this person is talking about the same song, just different arrangements lol
It’s the same thing but for about three measures of it instead of it going to other instruments
We’re playing this piece to right now. As a oboe player and a HTTYD fan, I love it!
I love this piece and am also an oboist but can't find the oboe part. Do you happen to have a link to it? P.S the oboe in this recording is... interesting...
The last year I was in concert band, we started playing this and getting it ready for the concert. I had the solo, and then like a week before the concert our band director took it out because he thought we didn’t work on it enough (to be fair 2/3rds of the class didn’t) but I worked on that solo so hard :(
Tuning. Your band director needs to tune y’all and teach y’all to tune
"how many times have you seen this?" me: "yes."
I'm a cellist in a youth symphony that's playing this exact piece right now, it's so cool to hear from a flutes perspective!! :)
As something who also played this song, the flute was the best (I am clarinet so she was next to me and was amazing at it)
My school concert band played this for their first concert and it’s safe to say that their dragons went extinct bc out of three trumpets only one was playin 😭😭
my band played this and i swear every time i played the music my flute went from perfectly in tune to unbelievably out of tune
why am i seeing this rn, its been 7 months, ur so good at flute better than our flutes in my school😎💪
I did this song in band, and after not playing the flute for most of a year, me playing along (just after going for a run and therefore having sweaty hands) really did sound like the dragon died 😂😂
As a flute player myself I feel you
you are so freaking good! and the low brass at the start? STUNNING!!!
the clarinets squeaking every 3 seconds was killing me the entire time 😭
Where were they squeaking
@@yoonies3dollarchains447I don’t really notice it either
I miss playing the flute so much, ever since I became homeschool I can't do band or choir anymore and this is making me sad. Also you were lovely, ore confidence than I could ever have. Good job!!
Best flute solo!!! Lowbrass still sounds very good thay have about 2-5 solos...
gave me hella deja vu. literally just played this this year in band - although we did play it a couple years ago too - and i was flute solo too lol. good job!
Niceee. We played this 2 years ago for my school’s “Pops Concert”. I was the Bari sax. Super fun piece.
As a bass clarinet player, those mfs in the beginning were so out of tune lmao
YOU’RE SO GOOD, OMG YOU PLAYING THE MELODY JUST GAVE ME NOSTALGIA LIKE THIS SHOW WAS MY CHILDHOOD 😭😭🤌❤️❤️
Our middle school symphonic played this today, they honestly played as good as the original recording for this
You playing amazing! I couldn’t keep up with how fast and great you were playing! I’m a flute player and I haft to say I could never do that. You did amazing! Keep up the good work! ❤
Hi Ate Rohanna, I’m a band student from Burlingame and we also played this in our concert! I also play Flute, so watched your video a lot of times to help me practice. Thanks for sharing your talent!
That is so sweet! I really appreciate kind comments like these. Thank YOU
U sound amazing girl. Keep it up. The rest of the band i cant say the same for
You look so happy when play which is amazing!
I can’t stop watching this your so good! I’ve watched this like everyday for the past month and it still amazes me
She plays fine but not that good lol
We never played this in concert band when I was in high school, but I can easily imagine doing it. I am tempted to take out my flute and play along instead of air fingering on an imaginary flute. This is very nicely put together with the sheet music, and beautifully played. Thank you!
I played this when I was in 8th grade but I had to suffer because they lost the part for my instrument… So me, a baritone saxophone player had to read a E-flat bass clarinet part that I couldn’t even get low enough for some of the notes. (I was very sad and disappointed, I was looking forward to playing it) :(
I just checked the instrument, it’s actually an e-flat alto clarinet
Very Nice! You played so well! I just played this piece with my school's wind ensemble (I played the snare drum part) and this brought back awesome memories. Thank you!
I dont know how to explain it, but this is my favorite video on youtube by far and idk why🙏
Wow I remember playing this same arrangement in high school, on clarinet. Just looking at the sheet music brought back the fun memories
I LOVE THIS IS BERK ITS AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU FOR POSTING THIS ❤❤❤
as a trombonist who has played this piece in concert band in both year 4 and year 8, this is so cool!! i barely hear the flutes where i sit in the band so it's really interesting to hear all the parts i never noticed before. you play it really well! :D
Thanks for reminding me how much I love this piece of music. ❤
Oh my gosh we played this piece last year in the spring! I got the flute solo too, it was really fun :DD!
Those french horns/mellow brass sound so pretty matches your energy so well
The music is so different. I only have bump bump with my music. Occasionally I’ll get an epic low brass theme.
the clarinets sqeaking made me die inside lol
Brings back memories. Used to play flute in high school orchestra, too.
I’ve played this twice in my band now, once with four of us (freshmen year) and second with six of us (junior year) so I loved listening to this and what it’s supposed to sound like 😭
i played this my senior year and it was so beautiful 😭🙏🏼 i played the flute part too and lemme tell you it was pretty hard
we’re playing this in my 8th grade band! i love the contrast between flutes and clarinets at measure 115 - you have incredible air control btw :)
As a fellow Flute player this was beautiful. Sadly even though I'm in Wind Ensemble I can't play thrills as I should be able to at my level getting my 3rd superiors this year.
I did it I got my superior my 3rd superior
my school did this and we all love it even though we're not super great at it. seriously, every time we get a spare second we all start playing this piece
The sigh of relief at the end of the solo is too real
I have watched this video multiple times I litterally love the whole grid franchise thank you ☺️
Thanks for watching :), I'm glad you enjoy
My uni band voted to play thi this semester and this just crossed my feed I’m so freaking excited! The flute part is so fun
my school band just started playing this and i REALLY felt that long note where it suddenly switch to the octave under 😭
Omg wow so talenteddd
i played this last december for full orchestra in high school, and it was so fun. (horn). made sure to play the test drive part very loud too because there were only two of us :)
I'm just gonna put this in my piano playlist, because you've inspired me!
you’re really skilled!!!
My school's orchestra has been playing this piece and exact same arrangement since 2017/2018, and I joined in 2019. It's only recently that I'm now able to play the fl solo (haven't performed it yet though) and arpeggios thanks to my teacher showing me the alternate Bb fingering lmao. I went through grades 4 to 6/7 before this epiphany moment😅
alternate Bb changed my life
Fancy bumping into you on the internet 👋
@@ibbybibby GO AWAY ARCHIEEE
@@fizz8912 Flute pov of the 🦡 httyd dropping when 🤔
@@ibbybibby when we finally get to perform it maybe
AAAHHH I played this on flute two years ago and. Wow that brings back memories
I've been watching this video a lot. The song is so good that I watched all the movies. Please film a lot of videos like this😍
something i haven't seen anyone mention is the brass, esp. the trumpets, need to open the backs of their mouths for a warmer tone
Im playing this as a bari sax in an orchestra where the trombones just SCREAM, and i say, this hole shabang has a deficit of BASSari SOUND, if i cant hear THE BOOM of the bari it aint good! in the first staccato, i heard only either the basson or the bass clarinet so im dissapointed in the lack of the best sax
We are playing this at my music showcase!! It’s such a great song!! ( i’m alto saxophone eb )
The intonation in the clarinets killed me 😭😭😭
We got to play this and we had attempted to play it in 8th grade before covid hit. I was the only who remembered how to play it the first time we did it. Definitely shocked the other flutes... Go muscle memory. 😂
This was an interesting experience lol. Keep it up!
played this arrangement in 8th grade and the amount of practice for the 3 bar trumpet solo and the amount of stupid listening required to remember the main triplet melody
Extremely touched🙏🏽
Good job on the flute I love lay flute too it was lovely
i played this version in september it was so fun
i played this my freshman year as a tenor sax (now i play bari sax) and we had no horns so i basically had a solo with the triplet part and i rushed them 💀💀 then my conductor made me stand up at the end of the concert after he didn't tell me i had to before the concert 💀 see a spring concert with the GLHS combined comet and concert bands 5-17-2022 on the grand ledge bands youtube if you wanna see how we played
Fellow flutists here. You really carried the section with that quality! You guys just needed a bit tuning, otherwise it would be almost perfect (for the flutes)!
I really hope i get the chance to play this some time, sounds great
THIS ATE
The dragon is still very much alive! I played this last year and let me tell you, I did not practice as much as you did 🫡
I feel so proud of you as a fellow flutist. You sounded great
Where i live, every single band that goes into a marching competition uses how to train your dragons.
