วีดีโอ

I quit band early this year. It wasn’t that I didn’t enjoy it or that I didn’t like playing, it was just too stressful. And as much as I absolutely adore my band director, she could act like it wasn’t band but the army lol. It just ended up not being for me, and I was so nervous to talk to her because she sometimes would take it….personally. But she was nice about it and I don’t think there are any hard feelings and I still support the band as much as I can, so happy ending I guess lol.

I HAVEN’T HEARD THIS SENSE 2019 OH MY GO-

This is literally me every year when we play sleigh ride lol. I get so excited whenever we play our old show music and Christmas tunes😂😂

As long as you have a jazzy guitar it’s fine in a band or a classical

my school choir with tenors

In my highschool junior band we have a single oboe and he sits in between clarinets (me) and flutes so whenever the teacher wants to address only us she refers to us as Floboenets (flutes, oboe, clarinets) or if it's just flutes and oboe then Floboe :D

There are a couple of ways I like to think about it: Flat means you are lower than you should be, Sharp means you are higher than you should be, note how the teeny-tiny piccolo is much higher pitched than the big 'ol tuba? If you want to sound higher pitched (sharper) make your instrument smaller/shorter, if you want your sound to be lower pitched (flatter) make your instrument bigger/longer! Another one is mentioning how soundwaves lose energy (lowers the frequency)the further they have to travel, making them lower pitched, so making your instrument longer=lower! (Feel free to correct me if im wrong).

Wait a bass clarinet an alto clarinet or are they different

No but my school band dose

Percussionist just straight up segregation

That really cool sound reminds me of dinosaurs.

Education failing in America while teachers fuck around on TH-cam

This is content?

Totally 9

As a clarinet player, I felt so cool playing an alto clarinet for the first time, despite the awkward size, strap, tuning, and reed (I had to go back to wooden after using synthetic for 2 years)

in high school we had so many clarinet players the director decided he needed 2 alto clarinets, 2 bass clarinets and one contra base clarinet to round out the over all sound/harmonics

This is actually true tho! ❤😂

Ive been playing sax for almost 4 years now and that reed taste is just 😫 And i remember the first time i made a sound on my neck that was one of my best memories in band on sax 🎷🎷🎷🎷

I think I might've just invented a new instrument- ÆÆÆÆ"

In my opinion. Trumpets. No Offence. You aint got MUCH to complain about (instrument malfunctions font count) like.. You're too loud? Then just, dont 😬 (this is all a joke. I olay the trombone i cant say shit except for slide positions. And thats like something i finished learned year 1 🤣)

as a clarinetist, asking my teacher for a new reed is the definition of awkward so i just buy my own

I use to do that then my teacher said not like then I force my self

Lol this is how it feels having played the same music every year at football games, winter parade, and graduation. As a senior it feel like I barely had to look at the music when we were memorizing. It's great.

My band is right after lunch so I can't relate

That kid is going places if they stick with it! I didn't learn transposition until high school music theory, which was specifically for the students in the highest level auditioned groups. Your young student learned something on their own that most of us have to be taught after a whole lot of previous theory.

I do the French horn!

The real trouble being in low brass is bring in front of percussion during practice and performances

This is true but as i am s percussionist and with 1 or 2 more people with me in the back we look like we dont have to try but we do more work then them normally because we need to move around switch instruments and then go back all while staying so quiet no one can tell

I always wanted to try the French horn. I’m a trumpet and have always been interested in playing the French horn. Hopefully I will get the chance one day!

Those are meant to protect the reads, not join them!

Great tone! But if you were a native euphonium/baritone player you'd have hit that 4th valve instead of 1 & 3... Fun channel!

My name is Isabella and I want to play the clarinet ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Yall lotion or valve oil works grate one of the fluter in my babd class got threr finger stuck we had to use valve oil and then the tuba player droped ther mouth pice in there horn and thats a whole other story

i did this in middle school too between flute, clarinet, and saxophone. all in different keys. just realized they were different scales on the different instruments which helped me learn new scales on each one and now damn i’m in a masters program for music and realizing i was made for this lol

Once my friend had a sticker of jesus inside her saxophone!

Bro in my class there’s one French horn (not me)😭

percussionist are elitists. if I had a nickel for all the crap they gave us woodwind dorks, i would have a lot of nickels. HOLD ON!!! Saxophones are not easy to play!!!??? are they?

49???? My band is currently the biggest it’s ever been, 33 people. We have 4 people quitting soon too. Last year in 7th grade we had 28 people, but we got new students

Bari sax has the big problem the long problem the strap problem/ harness I use one and it’s wild the reed problem also are music is to boring

"When I practice at home all my mom wants me to play is careless whisper" that is exactly what my parents do

fun fact: us Saxophones (bass clarinets included) only have neckstraps because it's impossible to play without one. The reason why is due to the way we hold our instruments outward with arms in a vertical orientation. All the other instruments have gravity as a "counterweight", but Saxophone players naturally don't, due to the way we hold the Saxophone, so we rely on a neckstrap to do "gravity's work. The right arm still has to hold the instrument up though, and sometimes it starts to hurt, especially when the right arm can't rest on your body, so we still have the same problems as both Clarinets and Flutes. I only speak for myself and my band's playing position.

When u said sax it sounds like u said sex

I think keeping them out keeps them from getting so messes up

As a trumpet player, the Bb and B natural gets flipped because in out music we play Bb so much more than B so it kinda just got imprinted in my mind that B natural is 1st valve, now I need to get it out of my head 😭

Realistically people end up making reasons to get certain spots --> if you are older "I am better", if you are younger "Im older" "I got here first"

Someone made this comparison once and as a tuba player I glared into her soul until she apologized trombones look nothing like a tuba
