I remember playing this way back in seventh grade. I was a trumpet and played the solo. It was my very first solo ever. Brings back memories now looking back on it.

[Nope-ldcanymore]

I’m playing this for a concert soon, love the clarinet part

Edit: I came back to wish everyone in the comment section good luck with their concerts!! (2022)

wow that adventure was so dark, i was spooked the whole time

Playing this soon, beginning band flute!

[zultra]

Honestly, this song has remained one of my favorites. I play flute, and being able to play most of the song and some of my favorite parts keeps it in my top 10 or so band songs. I remember this song being really hard to learn to play fast, but it was really fun to learn!

That clarinet and base Clarinet in the beginning 👌

[agpstupd]

I played this song at my band's winter concert. I'm a percussionist, and I confess that when I received the sheet music for this song, I was stunned. Although! This song has become my favorite.

I am in beginning band and I play the clarinet. At my concert, when intermediate played, they played this song. It sounded cool, so I learned it. Really fun song!

[cozyy]

It’s sad how it takes so long for the songs to come out.But when they do there amazing

[sorrowfulxsoul]

Loved playing this as a kid! Can still hear the clarinet parts I played. :)

[baseballa]

Played this last year and it was amazing. Any percussion players🥱

[tapdancingfish]

I played French horn on this piece in all star band, it was honestly an honour 🙏

[FollowerofChrist]

Love this song!! I am doing this in a concert soon. I play the flute. Pretty scared to be only flutes and clarinet in one part. The whole crowd is going to here us!! Well wish me luck!!! 10/17/22

I’m a tenor sax and am playing this right now I love it!!!

[oofkid]

Listened to this for the first time! This definitely does feel like a Dark Adventure. I put in the story as I listened

[supermangj]

I played this in 7th grade. I was a solo snare. This piece was tough but I pulled through. Good luck to everyone who has to play this soon!

[OzymandiasMC]

whoa nostalgia! I played this a few years ago in seventh grade and it was one of my favorites to play on my trumpet, especially the solo (without realizing it was a solo so when i got my first explicitly stated solo the next year i was terrified lol), but over time i had forgotten this piece even existed! So when it randomly showed up in my recommended i was just hit with a huge wave of nostalgia.

[dddazail]

Playing this for a concert as a bass clarinet player! love the song(also playing arabian dances aswell as black forest overture)

[riversideelementary]

I do alto sax, and this is really cool. I love the story behind it, and the beats. Very well made.

[slothman]

I remember playing this in 7th grade. I took it seriously. I played this with trombone and tuba
