Inagakuen Wind Orchestra

Sorry for updating again, rules for my contest found here: stargate4ever23.deviantart.com…

So the Inagakuen Wind Orchestra came to my college, IRSC, and performed....it was outstanding. These kids are only high school students of 10th and 11th grades (the 12th graders couldn't come this year). They were directed bt Mr. Tomoki Ubata, a small guy with the friendliest smile in the world, he got so animated directing them.   They were really a joy to watch. The played so many different songs, including Stars and Stripes forever in which the whole audiance started clapping in time to. ^.^ It was fun. They also played a song written by Yo Goto written just for Florida, it was about the Everglades. Beautiful piece. ^.^ Apparently the Japanese love Florida.

Here's a pretty good vid of them: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj5-p0… If you watch it turn your speakers up real loud, hook it up to an amplifier. XD anything, because its really hard to get the same feel watching it on vid that you would have gotten watching them in person, it was so powerful and loud and beyond awesome. ^.^ They really are a proffessional orchestra and should be playing in theaters all around the world and getting paid for it. they were amazing.

It was also funny, they put alot of humor in, especially the Japanese guy dressed like a mexican mambo dancer, and when they tried to dance thriller. So cute. They also sang a song with Japanese lyrics, kind of hymn like...it was so beautiful.
