It is great to be able to hear the trombones, the only reason it is important to me is because I am a trombone player and will be playing this around Christmas

Currently learning this in 7th as a flute and it sounds nothing like this Edit: Just got back from the concert it was good for a middle school band, the one mess up that happened is when I was introducing a song I said the wrong song but I don't think anyone noticed
