I play trumpet. I dream to be a drummer. When I saw this, I knew I wouldn't be able to hit the high notes. I'm a second year player in senior band at my school (I started in grade 8. I'm in grade 9 now).

I am playing this for jazz band rn, baritone on trombone 4 part is always fun

[@mikydees]

I played a big band Christmas in middle school

[@thejackofarts]

I remember playing this in my middle school jazz band and we (the trombones) had to stand up in the three quick measures before auld Lang syne. Fun times! 😂 Also the pianist (who had perfect pitch but awful rhythm skills) screwed up the end so much, but he got it the last practice of the song and we all cheered.

[@dutchmilk4158]

I play tenor and I'm nervous about the tenor solo because I have to stand. The trombones at our school dont stand.

[@elzaanil452]

Pianist here, my school’s winter band concert is tonight and I’m literally practicing just there last part because it’s also being a pain for me 😂 I kept effing up that part in rehearsals too 🥲

[@elzaanil452]

Thanks

[@ursoxuntyd8805]

The auld lang syne part is so easy to lose track of where you are!

[@RoseCadenza]

Listening is a good key to staying on track. It comes in handy when I'm lost in 20 bars of rest.

[@hackenbeckproductions2683]

I had to count in 2/2 because it went so fast!!

[@amijanae8727]

yea i play bass and i was sooo lost lmao

[@Stardust_RamlethalPM]

Omg same I’m always thinking it’s still the end of Have Yourself a merry little Christmas with how fast the tempo changes
