Oh man, that was unbelievable!!
Great song and great orchestra!!

For a change something REALLY great.

For a change, something REALLY great.

What a great song to play! Its hard to believe that its a student orchestra! (in a good way) That was awesome!

I'm at work and someone took my speakers so it sounded pretty lame to me,and I cant lip read..

Talent!

It reminds of the the time the London Philarmonic played Oasis, which I think is a great thing for a student orchestra to be compared to.

The bass is fantastic although the strings may need jsut a little more practice. Personally I've got some quite big PC speakers, but I think on CD on a decent stereo, that would just blow you away!

Now, where do I get the CD?!

Just great.

that sounded like crap! not a thing like the origional!!!

Very good job, so nice to hear an orchestra play something halfway current instead of old slow crap songs that nobody enjoys except grandma and grandpa. Kudos to the orchestra and whoever approved this. Hope to see more like this!!

Overall, pretty cool, but there are some parts that are off.

I had no idea you could do that with those instruments.

that was incredible and to trman it didn't sound like the original? It's not supposed to sound exactley like the original. Orchestra and grunge are different kinds of music do i need to spell it out for you

There are some really great parts, but a lot of parts where the drummer just ruins it. I'd like to hear it without the drummer, just strings, as they do a pretty good job of laying the rhythm down.

Awesome clip!

hey jackass
how about I drum on yer head punk....I'm reading sheet music and do as I'm told.....and I still have my pick of a bunch of band hunnies.....

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring

Meh, This is a really crappy orchestral arrangement. would have been better if a symphonic band did it. I dont really like this all that much, the great britian ukulele orchestra does a FAR better job of it. Good material, decent performance, arrangement sucks.

Definitely a great concept, but it was rough. The arco has no character. The cellos were horrific, but the bass was solid. Coulb de amazing with more work, but a great start.

that was amazing. I will talk about this on our daily video podcast. www.thenewwrinkle.com

it is a great effort, i like it sounds good. and zack, you are not allowed to post comments here any more!!!

So, um, pretty cool, but the orchestra could use more practice. And admittedly, not so great an arrangement. Good effort, and kudos to the person who picked the music, but not spectacular.

look, i play drums, sheet music isn't that hard to read, and you (the drummer) botched up the whole peice. also, i don't see what's supposed to be so great. a beggining orchestra could play this. it isn't that hard.

Just Wonderful!! Wish I had better sound on this computer -what a talented group & I agree Kudos to their conductor for approving this selection!

I'd love to hear a higher quality recording of this :0)

Great Job!

How did I botch up the whole peice you moron?We were playing for a whole bunch of parents on a school night.This was shot with someone's hand cam with out any mixing of sound.If this had been properly mixed it would have sounded much better,but thats not the point.Any crap can be made to sound good if properly mixed.These were our parents and it was for them.Maybe you the different drummer might have spent a little more time in english class instead of sleeping.The person shooting this was sitting near a group of speakers,that was primarily being fed off of a mike near my drum set.Anyways,it was a fantastic night and I scored with one of the cello players,who is quite hot.

Violins > Electric Guitars

this is really original.. great thing

the arrangement is mediocre as is this band. you can just hear how they aren't all playing in time. as for the comments about mixing, the point of concert band is to play music so that it sounds good live,... not through a sound board. i hope this isn't this school's top band.

Eh ... it sounded like a few of the violins were a bit squeaky in some of the higher parts, and they didnt sound as in sync as they should have been. Still, it's commendable that a student orchestra has such high participation -- they cancelled orchestra at my high school when we got down to one cello, one viola, and one violin.

To everybody that said it sucked why dont you try playing that with a bunch of other students I thought it was great kudos to all of those guys great job keep it up!

is everybody a god-damn retard? a COVER is an arrangement that is a group's(in this case a highschool orchestra's) own composition of someone elses song.
i agree with everyone that liked it in that it was creative.
i also agree with those who didnt however. the drum part was to stereotypically dull and the overlap between the songs melody and harmony was unsupported.

Creative..? I'm not sure. Unbelievable....? I totally disagree. Really great...? I beg to differ. Great...? Maybe. Pretty sure any trained orchestra can match the performance. I'm probably just not getting the vibe. I suggest everyone listens to Metallica and symphony, that does a lot more for me....

we knoe other orchesters can do that, but they did it first :S

hey you dork farchi..wake up moron do u think this is the first lame school band to do a cover.they sucked but thats not the point,as in how your head must be pointed to say something that stupid derrrrrrrrrrrrrr!@!!!

well to all of you downers: piss off!
i still think 'good for them!' it's f*ucking hard for a whole group to stay that in sync with eachother(not perfect but pretty damn good for a school band)

very nice to hear clean music for a change

The orchestra did a great job, but it would have been nice to hear a little variation on the percussive side of things. The original has a lot of really great drum work in it, and it was lost in the transition. Aside from that, it was great

Come on you guys, they were pretty darn good!!! And for all of you so called "music critics" who have nothing good to say about them...Just SHUT THE HELL UP!!! At least they are trying and thats probably more than any of you can say. How many of you even played an instrument in High School? I rest my case!!

Loved it!That was awesome.
Great idea,great job.Sent it
to all my friends.

voll gut

that was awsome!! for a student band ( and im not knockinh them ) that was pretty amazing, any ideas if they have done any more covers? wouldnt mind hearing them!!1 well done guys!

That was great! It's did have some parts where the strings and/or drums got off beat, but it's a student orchestra! It was totally awesome and if a big name orchestra ( like the San Francisco one ) did it I would SO want a CD of it!

Absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who are they???? Should be in a movie or music video!!!!! It brought tears to my eyes they were so good.

Listen with headphones to get the full effect!!

What school IS this??? Where are they?

I forwarded it to a million people. Fantastic.

I think this is the best orchestra ever! I love it!

Yea, the drums did get a little out of hand in a couple of spots, but for a school arrangement... bravo!! - True, professionals would nail it down, but I give them props for even attempting something outside of the box

Cheers

that waz alsome i am going to show this to my band teacher he is going to love it

K, it was good for a school band, great even, but the retards on here who are comparing it to a world class orchestral band, go to hell. It was GREAT! By the way brandi, your a fag!

Please post on this site, e-mail address for student orchestral. Great work, and I have hear the best.

Apocalyptica are three classical cellists who do Metallica covers among other things if anyone is interested.

Isn't it amazing how the ones who are the most critical of the performance are the ones who don't know the difference between a band and an orchestra and who play nothing more challenging than a CD player.

It was a marvelous performance, especially for a freshman orchestra. Has the arrangement ever been published?

I enjoyed every note. Amazing unification amongst musicians! Excellent!

Spectacular!!

that sounds like a song from nirvana.....
