This humorous nod to the "B" monster movies of the 1950s is sure to be the hit of your next concert! The blood-curdling scream in the introduction sets the mood for the wild ride ahead. A great way to introduce your students to a variety of modern techniques and effects, including glissandos, Bartók pizzicatos, ponticello and more. . . . all clearly explained and notated. The only trouble you'll have with this piece is getting your students to stop playing it! (3:58) This title is available in SmartMusic.

My teacher told us to scream for our lives when we perform this. But during class, we all sound socially awkward when scream

[@shaynemunn]

So like how the scream in the recording sounds? LOLLL

[@fake00ut]

Shayne Munn no, like a scream of pure terror and dread, that’s blood curdling, not like that fake scream, like a you’re getting murdered scream

[@libbykelly2809]

My class just screams the most monotone scream

[@fake00ut]

[@ladyviola2685]

We're not even screaming for this, my orchestra. My teacher just has the cellos playing the bit in between the bridge and tailpiece, and good Lord is it scarier than any scream out there-

[@shwoom]

My orchestra teacher had us listen to this song in class. Afterwards she just said, "Don't worry, we'll do the scream better." She motioned at a girl and this gal just screams a loud, ear murdering scream. It was great and 100% gonna terrify people in the audience when we play it.

We played this our 7-8th grade year? I was going to be the screamer. I thought it was kind of amusing because I was the only cello to try out. Unfortunately that concert got cancelled because of the snow and for the next four years the spring concerts sucker punched me in the gut because I was always under the impression we didnt have one lol.

[@Alixiie_Animates]

Im playing this in combined 7/8th grade orchestra (advanced orchestra 3 ig) and while we were listening to this, the scream caught us all so off guard (we didn't have the score in front of us at the time). When we were discussing it and seeing if we would want to play it, some of the kids in my class were speculating wether to hire some of the band kids to scream for us 😂 We also discussed hiring the "precious pumpkins/the littles" (Beginner orchestra 1, consisting of mostly 6th grade) but our teacher decided on either the choir kids (because they can do the right note) or the drama kids (because they can scream the loudest). We only got this piece a week ago so the decision is yet to be made. Tis the funnest (and funniest) piece I've played ever in orchestra. BUT. While we were sightreading the piece, some of my classmates decided to scream, and this one guy had the deepest scream ever heard and I could barley play for laughing. I love my orchestra.

[@JacksonHollo]

Yeah, middle school orchestra is pretty rough, especially 6th grade, because it’s just random people who want to do a thing, yet fail miserably, that’s why sixth grade concerts are awful, I’m going into eight grade, and I’m pretty excited for when I get to do high school orchestra, because all the bad playing people will quit and it’ll be fun (I hope).
