He's an awesome horse, and he also looks pretty good in pictures (save for a few that were taken in his run, with like zero light), so I figured he'd be a good subject for a slideshow. :) The music is "I Get Around" by the Beach Boys (arranged by Michael Sweeny), performed by Concert Band '07 - '08 in their 2008 spring concert. Sorry about some of the not-so-great stuff, it's mostly high notes that don't sound too good. Credit music is "Between Wind and Water" (arranged by Michael Story), performed by Beginning Band '07 - '08 in the 2008 spring concert. http://www.freewebs.com/apps/videos/view/593868-bony-i-get-around Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:42:15 -0400 Yes, the horse's name is Bony.

Horse Contest Entry - Quarter Horse http://www.freewebs.com/apps/videos/view/593808-eye-of-the-tiger-piano Eye of the Tiger... I am totally aware that it doesn't sound much like the real song. It's not supposed to. I actually put this together myself based on Gerald Sebesky's arrangement of the song for concert band, by using the clarinet, alto sax, and trumpet parts. It's not great, and the sound quality is kind of blah, but I did my best. Anyway, the good news is, even though it doesn't sound like much on here, I got a keyboard! This is a Casio WK110, on the 002 (Grand Piano) setting... this song sounds better on other ones, but I decided not to be too weird. http://www.freewebs.com/apps/videos/view/593808-eye-of-the-tiger-piano Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:34:15 -0400 Eye of the Tiger...

Eye of the Tiger - Piano http://www.freewebs.com/apps/videos/view/593795-memory-cats-full-clarinet The full version of Memory from CATS -- I recorded this earlier right after I had gotten the music, and the last part looked impossible to play, but then I remembered with a clarinet it's two fewer flats instead of two more... anyway, so I can play it now. Grant it, there are mess ups, and I know the tempo is off... For the record, the break where the keychange is was intentional. I recorded this in chunks (since I couldn't play the whole thing through without messing up :P), and since that part is supposed to come after this long instrumental thing, I figured at least a little break was probably a good idea. http://www.freewebs.com/apps/videos/view/593795-memory-cats-full-clarinet Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:32:44 -0400 The full version of Memory from CATS -- I recorded this earlier right after I had gotten the music, and the last part looked impossible to play, but then I remembered with a clarinet it's two fewer flats instead of two more... anyway, so I can play it now.
