In Response To: Earth City Performance (TraitorJoe (formerly Poop Scoop))

: A little less than a month ago, my orchestra performed Earth City from the
: Halo 2 soundtrack Volume 1. I transcribed it about a year ago now, but it
: wasn't until this year, my Senior year in High School, that we got around
: to play it. It wasn't a perfect performance, and our replacement Freshman
: French Horn player did a valiant job for his experience and grade level. I
: ended up making some changes from the version available at rampancy.net, I
: fixed the horn part, and turned the vocals into wind insturments.
: Unfortunately, we wern't able to perform the introduction (no harp) nor
: were we able to use percussion. Well, I'll leave you with the link and I
: hope you enjoy the performance.

You have an excellent talent with music if you were able to transcribe Earth City. That is a very complex piece.

I play the trumpet in my high school band and being a brass player, know that the french horn player gave it all he had but alas just couldn't keep up.

Some of the bass runs sounded a little out of place, but I make much ado about nothing. You've done something few people can, and that is write a piece of music that can be performed well. I congratulate you and salute you.
