I love hearing this song, hate playing it. This song was written for my school and dedicated to us. In 2011 it was played at the Michigan Music Conference by the high school orchestra, from what I was told, they did amazing.

[@teganastani5776]

omg I played at interlochen for a summer with that conductor terrance or whatever 😩

[@lizzieprewett]

I’m playing it now, it is not fun to play 😅

[@MrCat-yl9dz]

Lol I am playing it Rn And I am only in 7th grade

[@mayam4636]

That’s so cool!

My friend and I are arranging this song as a small group of 9-10 people to perform at our last orchestra concert of the year! We are the two first violins and it’s absolutely beautiful! We’re having so much fun with it!

[@scoutandy9805]

The bass part in this is ridiculously hard. Can't wait to play this for assessments this year!

[@janiemamidi9053]

It's actually not, I'm in 7th grade it's actually really easy and SO much fun!!!

[@violaisreallycool]

What if it's hard and easy at the same time? Like relativity of time, to someone traveling at a much faster speed time moves more slowly in relative relation to someone moving slower.

[@EIizabethMarie]

The timing is really fun and challenging for this piece, definitely one of the most enjoyable pieces I’ve played in a while

[@mothRequiem]

as a bass player, I'd rather play something challenging than overly easy, it's not often that we get to play intricate parts

[@masonfuller6007]

Ik I play bass I fell the pain

[@ajyur9921]

We played this at our assessments this year, and our conductor asked us who wanted to conduct this by ourself.... I couldn’t jump on that offer any quicker😂😂 best 7 minutes of orchestra in my whole life

[@Мэтью-ъ3л]

Okay but can we talk about the second violins in 2:21 for a second?

[@GabrielaMendez]

This was my FIRST piece when I was a BEGINNER cello and I didn't know most of the notes 😂 freshman year, oof.

[@tavit.6036]

omega oof

[@nameless3544dwb]

after four years, how do you feel about this piece now? or have you given up on orchestra- in which case do you still listen to orchestral compositions? right now I am a sophomore in symphonette, and this piece is indeed challenging to play but extremely fun to be expressive with at times.

[@GabrielaMendez]

@nameless3544dwb I still play cello today! I graduated high school 5 years ago and Vanishing Pointe is my fave!

[@nameless3544dwb]

@GabrielaMendez oh I see that's good to hear well I hope you're having a good day and ty for your time

[@ClassicalHD]

Lemondade requested this one. I wonder how much more I can upload of Richard Meyer's work before I get a copyright notice.

[@lemondade]

ClassicalHD This is much more convenient than opening up JWPepper every time. Thanks!

[@starsun6363]

Dunno........

[@jesseiguess1319]

ClassicalHD you won't get in trouble if you give credit right?

[@ClassicalHD]

Not necessarily. I don't think they care about the recordings, as long as I don't make money of them or give sheet music away for free. Which I do neither of, hence the ad free channel.

[@Snake-oh6mg]

ClassicalHD I love having no ads it makes my day happy and keep up the great work and uploading better quality versions of song!

[@williamhiegel2756]

Everyone in my high school’s Orchestra are Richard Meyer fans, we’ve been playing his music since probably 5th or 6th grade!

[@sequoiadraws2965]

Playing this with my orchestra for a competition next year. Hope we win!

[@williamhiegel2756]

good luck!

[@sequoiadraws2965]

Update: we WON!

[@zyaichee6573]

My friend is in Phillarmonia at our middle school and she was the solo part (aka the concert master) and I was like YASSSS QWEEEENNNN

[@janiemamidi9053]

@Meagan Rose Yeah!!! This is middle school work...but then again my orchestra's playing at nationals, nearly everybody's in a youth symphony...so who am I to talk???

[@graciejoy4777]

Janie Mamidi it’s simple I just wish I would’ve learned cello earlier bc our school orchestras move very slowly

[@calebcarlson297]

1:28 this is my bookmark for my audition

[@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fan]

THIS PIECE IS SOO ADDICTING LITERALLY I REMEMBER HEARING THIS IN A HIGH SCHOOL CONCERT WHEN I WAS YOUNG NOW I really hope I play this. Because now I think I’m that level

[@darshandesai7225]

This song is quite hard for bass!

[@darshandesai7225]

I am saying that being in middle school

[@judekioney1128]

Damn right bass buddie. And I’m saying that in year 11!

[@darshandesai7225]

WOW, you must be really good, I just got the sheet music to play for fun and the part that I found hard were measures 39 - 43!

[@samuelzhu3073]

*piece

[@carterdarrington5994]

at measure 131 basses FINALLY HAVE THE MELODY!!!!!!!!!!!! I think measure 37 is the hardest with the high b that we have.

[@adelozano]

Bro my conductor wants us to play this song and as a cello part is almost not possible. Like bro we in high school what do u want from us 😭😭 don’t get me wrong I love the song, reminds me of a video game

[@osgoodbacon9286]

Viola part at 66 is so fun

[@samuelzhu3073]

i know where u live

[@tavit.6036]

I haven't played it, but also a violist, for 6 years now

[@tavit.6036]

ayyyyyyyyyyyyy, viola gang

[@ronaldlontoc1690]

It really is tho-

[@kateg7910]

ah yes, the same chord over and over with nothing but dynamic changes

[@williamhiegel2756]

The people who disliked are the people who couldn’t play it

[@RussianToLane]

I love hearing the 5/4 caste

[@ellascott9401]

such a great songggg!!!!

[@WhyLychee]

At first I didn't like this much but now I love it.. It's easier so much when you understand it and both of the melodies are so pretty... I'm Violin 2

[@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fan]

I heard this at a high school and i wanna play this!! SO GOOD!!

[@adelozano]

It’s a fun song sometimes to play, but looooord the timing is so hard

[@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fan]

@@adelozanowait you played this before?! Cuz I haven’t and I’m afraid that if I Introduce it to my orchestra teacher she’ll say it’s too hard. Yes the timing definitely sounds VERY FAST

[@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fan]

@@adelozanobtw sorry I’m soo late lol

[@BoeJiden5]

​@@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fandid you get to play it?

[@Minnie_the_Shinobu_fan]

@@BoeJiden5 Sadly no. I really want to thoo it sounds amazing. Hopefully in the future I get to.

[@kcnotcasey5758]
