Real reactions from the players, directors & students who love Contempo.
I am a French horn player and we played this in middle school, it was really fun. If you are in a band, then you should recommend this to your director.
my band is playing this for UIL in a few weeks (I'm 1st flute) wish us luck 🤞 update: we got all 1s on stage!
This was my favorite piece we ever played in middle school 8 years ago now. I played the snare drum.
We played this in 2009 and I will forever remember it! <3 1st Trumpet, M.B. Lamar Middle School in Laredo, TX, USA
I played this as a Tuba in 8th grade and to this day it is still my favorite piece.
The amount of people who've played this piece for UIL is insane. (I also played this piece for UIL last year and we got all 1s)
French horn here!! I really like this piece, gets me excited. Our band is performing this along with SEVEN other songs TWICE this week! I can't wait to present this song to my school, family, and community :)))
Honestly a masterpiece, I am playing this currently and I absolutely adore it, I really hope we continue to play it and don't cut it!
as a trumpet, we played this at our music festival yesterday and got superior! the acoustics made us sound literally better than this video it was nuts. every 3 seconds in rehearsal we would get yelled at because our melody was "too long" "too short" "not punchy enough" "too staccato" "not strong enough" "too quiet" LIKE UHM. but we mastered the accents and it sounds so good 🥹
