Good tempo. So many people take this too fast (and also rush) forgetting it is a processional and people would be walking in to it.

I'm soo glad to hear that exact cmment! After recording this I listened to other recordings and I was a bit worried because everyone play faster. It lacks excitement in our recording maybe. :)

@@itchy2345 Not to me. I like the steady calm tempo. It depicts the regal Queen of Sheba and her entourage's arrival bearing the gifts of gold and jewels as she meets King Solomon. Taking it so fast just seems like an exercise in virtuosity, but it's not really what the piece was meant for. To me the excitement is in the stoicism and the feeling that someone really important has just arrived. Were she made to walk at such a fast clip, I believe the Queen would not be pleased. : ) This Orchestra has a good tempo. You can hear the deliberate pace of the bass line and her and her people proceeding toward the King. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4WqfH1vgsx2hbM
