| A few points on this one:
1. No doubt it is amazing that they could be so disciplined and trained at such a young age.
2. I wonder if they have time to do their homework in other studies.
3. I wonder if they have time to be "kids".
4. An 8 member trumpet section maybe does well to spell off the others for maintaining the section.
5. Keeping time with the trumpet bobbing up and down may be good for the conductor to know if the beat is being kept; however, IMO one may as well be "marching" as he is playing…..not great for the chops.
6. Lastly, my only real criticism is that it left me cold…………..no feeling of what they were playing…..only a feeling of "exercising" in music but what does one expect from Kids.
