This song was the peak of my middle school band back in 8th grade, pretty much everyone was required to join band at 6th grade, at the beginning we were just trash and were just messing around, but after playing together for some time we became a great band, and for our middle school graduation, Fire Dance was our final piece and we delivered it

[@owsl2468]

I was a trombone player btw, it was quite fascinating cuz everyone knew each other in the band and our conductor was a pro trombone player

[@gavinlozeau9793]

I’m a trombone player and my conductor is/was a pro trombone player

[@redfangtherainwing122]

We played this in LGPE our 8th grade year

[@thraxmystica]

In 7th grade, one of the band teachers personally taught me and one other person the trumpet and the saxophone. I went from not being able to read sheet to playing this song perfectly before the end of the year. Bless that man's soul because I had so much fun playing this piece, although the head band director was pretty harsh on us. Still had fun tho

My band started playing this in 7th grade. Due to covid, We never got to perform it. Now, in 9th grade, My teacher took the liberty to re-teach it so we could perform it. I’ll always love this song, No matter how much of a pain it is sometimes.
