We were so good! I really loved it, and I could tell, that everyone put they're best effort into it. percussion added so much to this piece, and we were cooking so hard! This was by far my favorite moment, cause of the rhythms, tunes, and overall sync that we were in! nI don't even think I have that much bad stuff to right about it, but we could've been better in sync during the first melodic part with first violins! THE END 🔥🔥🎻🎻👍

At the start of Carol of the Bells, we were all pumping with adrenaline, & it sounded soooo good. We were all smiling because it was the best song ever & we have been waiting for this moment since forever.

My favorite part was when the harps played their solos. I thought it sounded really good, and I enjoyed getting ice cream with my family after.

Something that went well -

The ending was very good , it sounded powerful and strong.

We also did awesome at measures 48-64

Something we can improve -

The dynamics mostly and the transitions between piano to forte

My favorite musial moment was -

Watching the Aunt Rhodie's Play :)

Carol of The Bells:

Things that went well:

1. The start was amazing and everyone was playing with good intonation and staying on beat.

2. Percussion was amazing (shout out to Adhvay).

3. Our dynamics were played well.

4. Decrescendo was amazing from fortissimo to piano.

5. Basses were cooking at 77.

6. We were together for the whole song.

7. This was our best played piece in the whole concert in my opinion as we stayed together and it sounded nice.

8. Sudden piano at 123 was played greatly by everyone.

9. Each instrument including percussion was heard at every part of the music.

Things to improve upon:

1. Look up at the conductor especially at measure 61. However, we picked up very quickly.

Favorite Moment:

Something I liked from the entire concert was that we got to play with percussion for Carol of the Bells. It made it sound much better and I was really looking forward to playing that song after I got to know that we had a percussionist (Adhvay) playing with us. I also liked when Chamber was playing because they played amazing but also seeing Kavish's hat being straight up and being "unique" in a way while Medhun was "Aura Farming" in a way.

+Great dynamics

+Not much rushing in the beginning

-intonation was...meehhhhh (61-94, 103-114, 131-138, ending 3 notes)

-1sts from 61-77, rushing and dragging and out of tune

+high notes were good (127)

-articulation in the second page (yes the second page)

+lower notes were good

-mid-high notes were awkward

# data[].attributes.body
What we can improve:

- we sped up in measures of 77-89

# data[].attributes.body
The cellos were good. The forte's at the starting were amazing.

Rhythm was good

115 was weak though. In some places, we were out of tune.

Things that went well:

The dynamics were SPOT ON. OMG. Chefs kiss. Our intonation was insanely good, and our tone was amazing, we used a bunch of a vibrato. At 94, our piano to forte was amazing. i got goosebumps. 123 was very articulate, just like we wanted! Props to the basses for their glissando, it was insane!!! (Basses need more recognition real)

Things to improve on:

Some notes were out of tune, but it wasn't that noticable. at 77, some people rushed and it sounded weird, so we need to stay together. that's all! :)

My favorite moment:

My favorite moment was listening to the whole concert and making the beginner concert sleigh.

Things we did well:

This piece had the best intonation overall and the drums and the transitions from piano to forte went REALLY good, we all stayed together when we had those parts, and we especially did good at the beginning and at the end. Carol of the bells was REALLY good when it came to us playing this piece and performing it (despite how we feel apart during rehearsals during advisory).

Things we need to improve:

The first violins needed to stay more together from 61 to 77, and the second violin to probably improve their intonation, but overall, nothing bad was happening and it wasn't anything we needed to improve.

# data[].attributes.body
Things that went well:

-We had a incredible start as we kept our tempo together and we also had great intonation.

-Our crescendo from measure 59-60 was really hearable, and we were piano at measure 61.

-Our intonation from measure 123 to measure 131 was really good, and we kept our tempo together.

-Our dynamic shift at measure 123 was really fast and good.

Things that we can improve upon:

-Our intonation in measure 61 to 76 was a little bit off. To improve this, we can practice our finger patterns.

-Our intonation and tempo from measure 37 to measure 45 was a little bit off. To improve this, we can practice finger patterns, look at the conductor more, and practice with a metronome.

Something that was good-WOW! THAT WAS SOOO GOOD! We stayed together, the drums in the background makes it pleasant, we did good in measures 48-61, the violins were really good afterwards and basses gliss made it really good, we stayed together, and overall this was the best piece we have ever performed.

Something that we could improve on-we could've stayed together more, but really that was it.

I loved playing the nates at 115

# data[].attributes.body
Good: we had great dynamics It was loud and we stayed together and it was exciting, The beginning was amazing.

Improvement: Sometimes we could be a little louder at some spots and our finger need to be in tune.

Favorite part: Everyone cooked and seeing my brother because he was one of the high school helpers.

Things that didn't go well was the beginning was the cellos parts because they didn't do the accents well. The violins were really confused on their solo in 69 and should work on playing the right rhythms.

Things that went well was the 112 to the end of the song because the drums added a nice kick to the music. The cellos also played their tremolo well at the end. We stayed together a lot too and the basses glissando was good too.

My favorite part was the harps and drums playing along. My least favorite was when someone stole my binder from under my chair and Aanya Ranjan kept laughing at me whining.
