- My amazing students requested a sequel to A Day in the Life of a Middle School Orchestra Teacher (see link below), and helped me brainstorm a list of things that happen in rehearsal. I hope you enjoy A Day in the Life of a Middle School Orchestra STUDENT!

Also, anytime you walk with a cello case, people immediately think it's a guitar. One time someone came into the orchestra room and came up to me to ask why my "guitar" was so thick. I responded by saying that I feed it well.
I can't handle this
Same hahaha my Cello thicc
Yes!!! That's exactly what happens to me. It gets so annoying because you have to keep reminding them, No, it's not a guitar!
Niiiiiiiiice response. I sometimes wished I play cello. Right now, I'm sticking to woodwind instruments.
Samantha VanWart OMG SAAAMME I PLAY THE CELLO AND PEOPLE SAY YOU PLAY THE GUITAR
Alternative title: woman goes slowly insane and starts offering rosin to imaginary people
Jack Ruffner exactly lol
No actually, I forgot it at home. Can I borrow yours?
Jack Ruffner u are missing the point
@@Carterm1965 how so? it's just a flippin' joke, nothing to be mad about
In middle school, you are supposed to use fine tuners.
*USES PEGS*
Unless you are a frigging bass
Clout Cloud you should peg tune to get the note itself and then fine tune
yep my middle school orchestra teacher doesn't teach how to tune with pegs so idk how to...
Clout Cloud not all middle schools my teacher lets me use pegs
@@madisonl.607 not really something that needs to be taught, turn the pegs until you have the note.
If a middle schooler used pegs, there wouldn’t be strings left
Your mom I tuned with pegs all the time in middle school
Central Intelligence Agency samee never broke
I remember the first time everyone was learning to tune, one fourth of the orchestra had popped a string from an instrument.
i just learned to tune and i do it better than my orchestra teacher...
I used pegs since primary...
*When you are rosining your bow and the teacher signals for the song to start*
Omg I do that all the time! (I'm a cello player)
Omg ikr
A C me every friking day
That's me everyday
I'm always the last to rosin my bow
A C Really......
I’m a violin player
Violins: *Tuning their E*
Cellos: *Quietly play high E as means of revenge*
Elle Nivens when I was a beginner I played fourth finger E while violins tuned because I was jealous, then I learned shifting 🙂 (violist)
I always do that in my orchestra class😂
Elle Nivens YES OMG
In my class us Violas teamed up with the cellos and started the C string Revolution to make the violins jealous and we would play 4th finger E sometimes lol but they could never play a low C like us lol
Some Person On The Internet lol we can if we tried though
You forgot the part where everyone asks violist if they play the violin
I Love Tacos Or they call Cello or Bass Giant Violin
I Love Tacos so true 😂😂
Yess!
Or when people assume you play the guitar because you are carrying around a violin case. True story.
We dont associate with violas 🤦♀️
Me: *carries violin*
Entitled kid: LET ME USE YOUR GUITAR
Plumet YT that is me
I have orchestra for the second to last class
So I take my violin to my last class
So I’m in my last class,and this kid goes.HEY U GOT A GUITAR,GIVE IT,and I’m like for one.its orchestra class nor is it a guitar and they go”oh well I don’t like violinist” and right there I was like so mad.
Violinist are da best
Bold of you to assume that middle schoolers actually practice
GUYS I AM BEGGING THIS WAS A JOKE PLEASE CAN ALL YALL CHILDREN STOP GETTING SO PRESSED OVER A MEME - a cellist who was once a middle school orchestra member
The Basses do
I actually practice
I don't usually 😂
I never do 💀💀💀
We do all the time sooo ur just assuming ur prob not even in orchestra
"Violins play your E string please"
*50 shades of E*
*Hyde's variations of the note E*
100th like
@Savannah Christian same
“Ok violins play your e string”
Violas cello bass: AaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaAaA MY EARSSS
LOLKILLERMAN123 exactly that’s how i feel...its just ew
My friends are all violinists and when they play their E string just to annoy I’m like, “AAAAAAAA MY EARS”
I'm a violinist and this is also a mood for me.😅
As a violinist I can say all the kids that don’t play violin isn’t used to the e sting 😭
Viola can play E as well on the A string so.
I play the cello and I have honestly lost count of how many times I’ve heard: *”oh my gosh that things as big as you!”*
Same oh my god-
my bass is a foot taller than me and it isn't even a full size
Hah imagine playing bass. I play bass and people are kinda getting annoying telling me that the instrument is bigger.
ur local roach I play trombone (the cello of the band) and cello so imagine double those comments. Yes. It gets that bad.
As a bass player, I assure it's worse
People : " OMG HOW DO YOU CARRY THAT THING?"
My middle school orchestra:
Violins: wacking eachother with the bows, and squeak on E on purpose and I'm the only one who is waiting for the teacher to start class
Violas: pays attention and makes it sound very nice and sweet when we play, and stays calm
Cellos: all the players are tiny, so they try to see over the cello and keep leaning forward
Bass: *HI WE EXIST*
Lol
My friends and I made a cult and climbed into the ceiling a few times
I’m the
*HI WE EXIST*
Then the cellos need either a smaller size or they need to lower their end pin. (Coming from a celloist)
@@edwins8865 friggin auto correct
No one mentioned it but
lets put the jokes aside
The women can play Violin, Cello, and double bass
Yasemin Fatou Sönmez well basically if you’re a orchestra director you have to learn all the instruments :/
@@hopelesshaddy3332 mine can't lol. she knows basics of course and how to read each clef but she only knows how to play cello properly
brianna Welp OOF
Some kinda learn better than others
Lol my orchestra teacher has to learn all the orchestra instruments to tune them
@AshiTAKE
Same here
That moment when the teacher moves me to the front row during a concert and you forgot the notes
Me: well shit...
LMAO CAN RELATE YET I'M ALWAYS AT THE FRONT (rip)
Lucky I’m always ALWAYS in the back. Like no one sees the basses
Even worse when you're the one making the seat plan 😂 Been there before and then you're like "shit, why did I sit in the front again? oh yes, it was because I'm the one in my section that has played the longest. stupid me"
If ya get first chair, consider it an achievement despite the watchful eyes and keen ears of the conductor.
Moral of the story: Don't teach strings students. We are always a pain for you teachers. You don't get paid enough.
They get paid more than the students and get to teach things they love. Hush.
Ikr?!
Tod Kupstas you just don’t realize how bad you are yet
Tod Kupstas I don’t care about anything you just said.
Tod Kupstas stop telling your whole life please and just ignore the comment
I need a shirt that says got rosin?
Arcticphantom 9 omg I need that
YES ME TOO! I love that idea!
Arcticphantom 9 I have that 😂

Blue Springflower lamooo IMA GET THIS THANK YOU VERY MUCH
*Cellos have left the chat*
I’m still here..
Oml
Im still here. Ill be gone in a minute😂
Hi
hi. im still here. i will wai
You forgot people giving each other their instruments while the teacher looks on in dismay while they try to play it and go “omg how do you even play this?!”
"I want you to imagine you are sea cucumber and your best friend is a blue flamingo and you are eating cheetos while watching reruns of old black and white tv shows. How does that make you feel? now play measure 9 like that." LOL
YOU GET TO TOUCH THE FORBIDDEN PEGS????? LUCKY!!!
*_I Can 2_*
My teacher doesn't want us to but i do it anyway and i'm pretty good at it
At my school we are allowed to "touch" them, but I'm to scared to because I feel like I will mess it up
The second semester of 6th grade I was introduced to tuning, therefor I am allowed to tOuCh EmM pEgs.
Same but the momment I tried it at home and my string broke.... -_-
Yeah the e string doesn’t sound beautiful unless it’s part of a song
It never sounds good period...
sir/ma'am u ain't mean the open E right
That’s why I don’t use open E 😂
@@formalthread479-minecraft5 yes it does....if your plucking it sounds pretty good
Its still ear rape tho
As a middle school orchestra student I relate to this so much 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Me too 😂
Me too. One thing else is that when you get put where everyone can see you in the concert and you don't know the song
As a JH student, I relate even more. Especially when there are *male* cellists that never do anyyyythingggg
When your band teacher or orchestra teacher be like
Teacher:again
Teacher:again...
Teacher:AGAIN
teacher:AGAIN!
teacher:WHY ARE YOU ALL SO BAD AGAIN!!!!!!
Why...? Why do they do this to us...?
Sparkleverse 1101 my orchestra teacher is always like this ;-;
This happens mostly with the second violins
i’m in gt orchestra 😎
Mine isn’t like that but ok 👌
When the end pin starts slipping mid-concert.
edit: thanks for 1k likes!
Shit shit shit shit shiiiiiiiiiii
i put it under my foot if i have to. the show must go on
It's called a Rockstop
Every year at my school we have a veterans day assembly. Our orchestra was going to play two songs, a medley of patriotic songs and God Bless America. We were supposed to play God Bless America during a slideshow of pictures of veterans from our community. Each veteran was supposed to submit their own picture, and my orchestra teacher timed the slideshow THE NIGHT BEFORE the assembly. According to her calculations, we would only have to repeat 2-3 times.
That was not the case.
Apparently, a lot of veterans had submitted their photos SUPER last minute, and the size of the slideshow had doubled. We had to repeat God Bless America. Six. Times. Every time after that, on the last measure, we watched as our conductor/orchestra teacher gave us the signal to repeat. My school cello's (Which I was using) end pin's favorite thing to do is slip down. Its end pin isn't like the other cellos, and it always slips. My orchestra teacher had had countless repairs on it, (Including one this year, the end pin was stuck and we couldn't even get it unstuck with pliers. Turns out the thing you turn to tighten and loosen the end pin (I forgot what it was called) was broken. I had to use a 3/4 cello for 2 weeks because there were no other available ones.) I was nervous for the assembly, as I have to fix the end pin several times during class everyday. Thankfully, all went well.
Until the sixth time we had to repeat God Bless America.
Towards the end, the end pin began to slip. I looked up, and thankfully we didn't have to repeat it again. If we did, I would've been doomed. The entire school, veterans, and others from the community were watching. The question still haunts me to this day:
What would've happened if my end pin slipped?
Okay this is just too true. I use rock stops and mine doesn’t slip but it goes in because it won’t stop sliding in no matter how hard I tighten the end pin.
you don't even mention cellos on a tile floor or wood floor, stoppers just don't work lmao
Fr
u gotta get the good ones that attach to the chair leg 👌🏻
Spit on it
I know right
ROCKSTOPS IF THEY ARE OLD DONT WORK AND I HATE IT! sooooooo annoying! especially when the endpin slips! NOPE!
Who hasn’t played their violin as a cello at least once?I mean we all do it!
Nothing But Random mhm it’s just so entertaining though lmao
I play cello so I can’t relate but I definitely tried to play my cello as a violin before lol
I used to always play my Violin as a cello whenever we weren’t practicing a song
YESSS
1:05 WE ARE DOING GAUNTLET TOO AND THAT IS A VERY ACCURATE DESCRIPTION OF THE CELLO PLAYERs
LMFOAO I REMEMBER DOING IT IN 8TH GRADE
The 8th grade in my school is also doing this
Yeah the 7th grade class is doing it, I was going to do it but then I got moved to advanced class with the 8th graders
(I play the cello)
y’all did in in 8th? i did gaunlet in 6th
Ellianna Del Fierro me too
I play a viola and all of this is so true, the cellos can never keep track of rosin and the violins E’s are always sooooo loud. No one except for orchestra students know what a VIOLA is. 😑.
Edit : Yes, I’m aware that other people know what a viola is, I’m not stupid
Natalie Miller ikr it’s so annoying
I know man, everybody's always asking if I play the violin, like NO stop forgetting the beautiful viola!!!
Natalie Miller couldn't have said it better
I play the Violin people ALWAYS asks if it’s a Viola I Literally Got in an argument saying it not):
Natalie Miller everyone that sees a viola at my school: “wow that’s a big violin”
Legit my class:
1st violins: super loud and bold
2nd violins: wimpy but still good
Violas: good but trouble staying together
Cellos: loud af, sometimes overpowering the violins
Bass (me): I HAVE A BROKEN FOOT AND THIS IS HOW YOU LEAVE ME
Edit: I didn’t expect this was gonna get a thousand likes. Thanks for the likes, I guess. Even though I’m not funny at all.
Kashvi almost everyone in my cello section is really shy and has no arm strength lmao. We also have less people than the bases
What do you mean I am loud...........😭
My orchestra
1st violins: Really good n loud but there are 20 of them
2nd violins: They have trouble keeping up
Violas: Amazing, my favorite section because theyre bold and there is only 6 of em
Cellos (Me): I'm not bragging I'm more complaining, I'm the best player there. The other two are ex violin players and my last partners dropped out of orchestra. I'm the only one who's played the full 2 years.
Basses: They're good but not enough arm strength when arco
Lol my class:
1st violins: super loud and bold
2nd violins: where are they?
Viola: OW MY EARS
Cello: Loud af, but can't be heard over violins
Bass: Loud af, but can't be heard over violins
My orchestra was practising O Tannebaum with the choir and when it reached time for them to sing my group, the cellists, was overpowering them and i was like are you sure we should be playing this loud
and don't forget the constant playing of meme music
*all star intensifies*
Amythyst this hit harder than anything in the entire video 😔
*baby shark intensifies*
everyone always asks me to play meme music because I'm the only kid that will take the 5 minutes to learn the songs lol
pls I play kpop songs, movie intros, oh and cant forget the among us sus theme song😩
I would always play "I Want It That Way" or the "Avengers" theme. I'd also take the time before class actually started to figure out "We Will Rock You", "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid", the solo from "Bohemian Rhapsody", or work on what we were actually playing, which was the theme from "Harry Potter". Soooo many accidentals. Jeez, John Williams!😅
Can you imagine some women chilling in a middle school class with a bunch of instruments talking to herself? Lmao
My middle school orchestra:
1st violins: great players but WAY TOO QUIET LIKE WHAT
2nd violins: they are actually louder than the first violins and they are pretty average except this one kid that keeps MESSING THE F SHARP UP
Violas: Usually never mess up, probably surprisingly the largest section, A on the G string is usually flat
Cellos: very good attitude but playing could be a bit better and together
Basses: they are as loud as heck when we tune but they are very good players
I am actually pretty proud of my beginning orchestra
•russet leaf•For me it’s
1st violinist: louder than everyone else
2nd and viola: don’t play
Cellos: huge ego
Bassist: don’t even exist
Me is
1 violins are the worst except the two ppl in the front
2nd violins KEEP ON MESSING UP AND THE WHOLE OF THEM IS BAD
Violas are like basically non existent and I'm the only decent one and the rest are trouble makers
All the cellos are new so they suck .-.
And bass is non existent
THIS IS SO WRONG FOR ME
1st Violins: Super loud but are really squeaky
2nd Violin: Also super squeaky but really quiet and have the best players
Violas: The best section, smallest section, quietest section
Cellos: Super good, Too loud, 2 super annoying people that don’t even do anything
well...um...6th grade orchestra has 3 violas
I still have yet to meet anyone whose shoulder rest flies off more than mine does. My stand partner even named it and said me getting mad at it is the best part of her day.
Aria H B T S. V
Aria H I play the bass so idk 😂
Haha, now you have me curious: what's it's name?
@@streetofdreams4538 She named it Benji
Poor Benji! :)
Everyone else: Omg! i am so good
Me: - cello screech -
My school orchestra:
1st violins: Only two people who really know how to play the others play really quietly and keeps on messing up on the easiest parts.
2nd violins: plays really quiet as a mouse and messes up on open notes.
Violas: Only three people who play the viola and barley plays any sound
Cellos: can’t keep the tempo and forgets there rock stop.
Basses: Only two people who play the bass but sounds like an earthquake.
My life as a kid musician😂
WHY IS THIS THE SAME FOR MEEEE
OH MY GOD, EVERYTHING YOU SAID APPLIES TO MY ORCHESTRA WHAT
There are like 55 violins 4 violas in total 8 bass players and 5 cellos
my SYMPHONIC class:
1st violins: loud, and proud. CONSTANTLY forgetting about low f
2nd violins: wimpy, somewhat good?
violas: somewhat good, probably one of my teacher's favorite section
cellos: kind of good, has two like really good players
bass: usually in tune, and probably my teacher's favorite section
Annie Mendes Are in Wilson High School? 😂
Ayyyy I’m in sinfonia too.
I’m first chair second and we are constantly being yelled at to play louder. So that’s a thing that’s with all seconds I guess. We aren’t used to not being able to piggy back off of the firsts.
Annie Mendes in my orchestra the basses are completely the opposite even though there is only two basses they always find a way to mess something up they ether don’t play at all start playing from measure one when we are already at measure four or just play the wrong notes but one of the basses is kinda good the other one doesn’t even pay attention
Oboes: Just randomly found this video and have no idea what's going on
I was a second violin last year and I was the loudest, also funny not related at all story, when I was in grade five someone thought my violin case was a gun case and I just kept playing on with it but then they saw me in orchestra one morning and the joke was ruined
As a lonely potatoe, also know as a bass player, I feel for the violas. I mean we are like the only two instruments no one seems to care about. Oh, and we are also ALWAYS called something else. “You play violin?” “You play cello?” I mean seriously! I had a friend who played viola, so we would always talk about this.
Also when people are intimidated because your bow is so big and thick.
Elemental lol i was going to play the bass but it was too expensive :/
Yeah, It’s apparently the most expensive string instrument at our school
*sobs and hugs viola*
@Merushiki
Lol I do that with my bass
Bass > viola
I’m a cello, and that thing about the different Es’ pitches between violins and Double Basses is so true. And that thing about the bows moving while playing was funny and true. I liked this video.
It’s bothersome when you have to use your fourth finger and no one in your section can do it except for you. :/
righttt
Yes!!
@Sparkle Tiger
I am a middle schooler
:3
Facts, all the other cellos cant reach their fourth finger but i can so i start to stretch my fingers too much due to other cellos :(
THIS^^^
Hi can I use your rosin
*Proceeds to give rosin to the air*
*_The air is talking_*
😂😂
2:03 the struggles of getting a brand new bow exept, the fact- THE OBVIOUS fact that it was never rosined and you forget
I get two things while carrying my cello
"Oh I thought there was a person behind you"
And
*ThAt'S a BiG ViOlIN*
Aryllix ghost same
When you're band and orchestra and ur teachers fight over u
yea we get it nobody keeps track of rosin
ThisIs MyName exactly mine broke and I use a lot of my class mates ....
I got mine back in shards, three separate times
My orchestra teacher had a lot of rosin but everyone broke it
Everybody asks me for some lol
Hi I don’t take orchestra, I play the flute and keyboard and piccolo in band. I was just wondering, what is rosin?
we don't even have any bases because everybody joins band
Gaming With Vlada and they don’t even know how easy it is for them compared to us
All of our basses quit........
Sadness....
Yeah mine has to get 7th grade bass players for pieces that have bass parts
unicorno123 aj same im literally playing electric bass except for cello at the concert.
Gaming With Vlada our band calls us the orch dorks.
Our cellos nearly fought them because they stole all the rock stops as a joke. It was not funny. You had a bunch of orchestra people scrambling around trying to find the damn rock stops.
YOOOO HOWD U KNOW WE WAS PLAYING GAUNTLET THIS IS REALLY A DAY IN MY LIFE 10/10 😭
*when everyone in the comment section is in orchestra and you’re in band*
Edit: I love reading the replies lol, and btw I play flute.
Me too!!
Begone band go away I’m a girl of orchestra Ahhhhhhh
Nah, clarinet player in band here too!
*when there is no orchestra, OR band in your school*
I’m in a Jazz Band!!
I play clarinet
As a double-bassist, I can confirm all the ones for bass 😅
Jennifer Dawn yes
Jennifer Dawn me too
Yes
Is it hard carrying it around? Cuz there is a girl I know that plays it also and I see her struggle to carry it around
Same
2:51 lol that’s me during class
The Chicken Industries PUSSY SO GOOD IT GOT MY NAME ON UHH
The Chicken Industries same honeslty
Same
oml and with my tosin, tuner, and german bow, and music, its impossible to fit that all on a stand 😂😂
Same.
2:45 * rosin promptly shatters completely, leaving a sticky residue everywhere *
1st violin is described by one word: *rushing*
The one with the either way too much Rosen or not enough Rosen on the bottom of the bow is so relatable. It will NEVER EVER stick!!!!
*rosin
Thank you you including bass!
Teacher: "Alright Violins play your E"
Violin's: *Plays E*
Cello's: *Faints*
Bass': *Screams*
Viola's (me): *Ears bleed* "STOP THIS MADNESS!!"
YESS EVERYONE COVERS THEIR EARS WHEN THEY TELL US TO PLAY E (violinist)
So in my school the orchestra and band have seperate rooms and they are both on top of each other so when band plays it's like an actuall earthquake
Middle school cello player here. Very accurate except there'd probably be a bunch of kids yelling in the back and my teacher would be screaming. And this one kid would be playing meme music Seriously, I'm so sick of the people there that I'd quit if there wasn't only one other cello player.
I'm the one playing meme music💯👌
Alissa Abercrombie
Same
I it's me and another in mine
I'm the one playing meme music
I can play suite number one on violin
I swear cellos are the worst at keeping track of rosin lmao. (This is coming from a cello student)
CitrusMew (also coming from a cellist) this is true
I’m the seventh chair cellist in my orchestra and the principal asks me for my rosin sometimes lmao
MoragaMaverick26 Huh?
I'm a freaking beginner in playing the Cello and everyone asks for mine 😭
ashton my section leader, the first chair cellist. Sorry if I was unclear lol
my 6th grade orchestra-
violins- snack eachother with stands and bows
cellos- pretty much the backbone of our orchestra and the only one who apply themselves
basses- hit eachother with the german bows
violas- sound horrible and waste the whole period slowing the rest of the people down (im a viola😂)
anna k sounds just like mine lol
lol nothing like my current or old orchestra except back in middle school, our viola section sucked until it was just one girl. she just didn't play loud. now we have two violas and they're our best section even if they're lazy
I'm a cello, the violins (2/3) of the orchestra slack around and the 5 other violas and cellos hold up the orchestra.
Jocelyn Olis same
When someone touches the hair on the bow *starts screaming like I'm being boiled alive* Noooooooooo!!!!!!!
I love how all the jokes are from all us orchestra nerds, I’m an orchestra nerd too. We had a March madness but it was orchestra and I won the whole thing!! 😂
Why was this on my recommended..?
I’m in band......
Fox Girl Same lol I play flute
Alexa it’s a sign you should join orchestra.
It was in my recommended too but I’m a Cellist in Orchestra so it all works out.
well not everyone’s perfect
Lol u are a loser
Lmao I’m a middle schooler and one time I forgot to close my case, and as I went down the stairs, my rosin flew out and broke down the stairs, I was screaming at people to go around, and mourned my rosin, kneeling on the ground and scooping up the rosin, in denial of its demise, it was traumatic, that’s why I always double check to close it
Clod be glad it wasn’t your instrument XD that would be traumatizing
Lin Tram
Yeah xD
@SW33TJAM
Update: I have lost passion in playing.
I’m switching to Theatre next year.
Violins: *good for no reason*

Violas: all the smart kids -plays fast and likes all the fast pieces
Awkward Emo ONLY 4 FIRST VIOLINS WTH
WHY THE HELL are there only 4 first violins?
In my class they aren’t all smart, this one kid keeps fucking playing two notes on a quarter note and it pisses me off so bad to the point I have to remind him to stop but that shit does not stop

Everyone: what?

Where are my bass players at?
Here
YeeYee.
Ayyy
hiya
Which one?
when your friend whacks your shin with a bow and you yell and you have to sit at the back of the classroom for "being disruptive"
I hate when my shoulder rest falls off
kill me same I get a mini panic attack
Me too
your user name certainly describes it
It happened to me in a concert and I dropped my violin, music and it went about 2 tones out of tune. It has a giant crack in the back. 😂
I think that means it's too loose....
Who else here is from twoset?
Zicarx TheGreat • me.
Me heheh
Me lol
Ling Ling wannabe right here
JuSt A ReGulAr AcToR me too
The shoulder rest is so relatable, as well as the rosin
When you’re in high school and you still relate to this 😂
I don’t know of any middle school orchestra that lets their kids even touch their instruments pegs😂😂 -EDIT- ok so some of y’all are saying “we get to tune” and “we learned how to tune in 6th grade” My orchestra did too and we only used our fine tuners. We couldn’t use our pegs because most of us would try at home and break a string haha😂 and it’s usually unnecessary, our instruments don’t get that out of tune and the fine timers can fix the little differences.
Honestly 😂
I was just thinking that 😂😂😂😂
we did a bit w/ pegs in 8th grade I think
At my school, 7th graders learn how to tune (even with the fine tuners)
In my middle school, we have to learn how to tune on our own starting at the beginning of sixth grade. Then, in around January of that year, we learned to do pegs. It's not hard at all, and during the process of learning pegs we only had one string break (A violinist).
Bass- barely can hear
1st violin- So FREAKING GOOD
2nd violins(me)- I am literally the only one playing because no one else listens
Cello- can't hit the right notes fast enough
Violas- the ones who listen, criticized, and make it sound good except this one girl who doesn't play at all
Thats my life right there
Well you don’t play a instrument that’s almost the size of you

It's mostly my class my dude. But Ima be true and say everyone else is so freaking good!!! Except 2nds, I had rehearsal today and guess what? I was the only second playing as always, idk why my teacher puts up with them!!! We have the concert in 2 WEEKS!!!!! 2!!! THESE SUCKERS WON'T EVEN TRY TO MOVE THE BOW!!! Ugh sorry I am really mad after today. Have a nice day!!!
Bass- can barely hear
1st violins (me)- SO FREAKING GOOD (because our teacher puts all the good players here)
2nd violins- Bad, but better than violas
Violas: Don’t use shoulder rests, flat hand, literally cannot play a D major scale (the joke of the orchestra)
Cellos: As good as the 2nd violins
My orchestra setup
Slightly wrong but pretty funny and accurate.
When People come up to me
Person: H-
Me:What do you need
Yes I play the cello and the waiting is soo boring and if you just lightly graze the string the teacher said that they heard you 😂😂😂😂
Ya my last concert my cello was so out of tune I barely played
The struggles of us basses 😂😂😭
We had a concert last week.I’m first chair for 7th/8th. I almost dropped my bow during my solo....yeah I’ve been playing for 5 years. You could call me successful. 👍👍👍
As a cellist, the three questions I’m always asked are:
OMG I nEeD uR rOssIn cAn I bOrRoW iT?
Bruh, why are you holding a bass like that?
And,
Oh cool, that’s a big guitar, where’d you get it?
My class:
First violins: really good, I’m the concert master
2nd: trash
Viola’s: okay
Cello’s: amazing
YOU DON'T USE APOSTROPHES TO MAKE WORDS PLURAL! YOU ONLY DO THAT FOR POSSESSIVES!
_The Grammar Nazi has spoken._
And I’m the concert master for he second violins and let me tell you, the seconds are sometimes better than the firsts. It depends on your level of orchestra.
The seconds have a different part than the firsts remember, we have to try and figure out if we are playing with the firsts, violas, our just by ourselves. The seconds also play lower which can make it more difficult to sound good. Lower notes=less pretty=less good sounding
aren’t you forgetting contrabasses?
H E Y WHO YOU CALLING TRASH
Day Dream Same thought tho. We aren’t trash we’re just unappreciated and always looked at as trash.
this video was fake from the beginning, practice? who practices in middle school orchestra lol
Uh me. I literally practiced 2 days ago for my concert next Tuesday.
I do! My teacher makes us practice at least 75 minutes a week 😐
I practice violin literally every day but sometimes not on Saturday or Friday. :) I’m in 2nd violin and in first chairrrrr :)))
a lot of schools. including me
does no one understand this is a joke lmao
When one of her bow hairs fell off i felt that 🤘😔
Lol I love the “No parkour zone” sign 😂
1:05 is accurate though-
(Edit)Also as a middle school orchestra student, I can fully relate to this.
I'm in band but can relate to some of these, like tuning and the instrument sliding out of ur lap. And with rauzen or however u spell it, every always asks for my valve oil
Ours is rosin :)
Rosin really sucks tho just in generally. You have to much on your bow, the bow doesn’t work. You don’t have enough, the boy doesn’t work.
And if you get it on your fingers it never comes off no matter how much you scrub. Your fingers just stay sticky. (Rosin is alcohol)
how does one completely butcher the word “rosin”
@@amarismilano845 sorry im not a string player
Rosin. I get how you feel. I was in band and switched to orchestra
or something like " what measure are we on" or "what line we on."
The wait was the music teacher done with her class and decided to make a TH-cam video
Ahh the bow pokes
3:39 LITERALLY THIS IS ALL WE DO AS BASSES pLS I want melody :::(
The bass ones were so accurate.
I should know, I play the bass
And the one with “violins play ur e”
*EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
"When you get to measure 9, I want you to imagine you are a sea cucumber and your best friend is a blue flamingo and you are eating Cheetos while watching reruns of old black and white TV shows. How does that make you feel?"
I'M WHEEZING
Ohhhh my god when her cello started going down I felt that. That happens to me often and I’m in high school welp
😂 soo true I play violin and my stand partner is always asking for me to let her use my rosen
I am a middle school orchestra student and I can confirm this
7:20 I felt that but instead of dodging a bow I dodge the butt of a flute😪
0:51 THAT IS FREAKIN ME IN ORCHESTRA CLASS AND I ACTUALLY PLAY THE CELLO I SWEAR THE VIOLINS ARE SOMETIMES SO ANNOYING
Ok that’s a little rude just saying you could say it in a nicer way
It’s been 3 years
1:11 that kid that sits right next to you who just cant put a shoulder rest on right
1:00 Gauntlet!! I remember that one. Viola player here, flashing back 15 years! This was all true 😃🤣
0:53 I couldn’t help but laugh because it’s so relatable lmaooo
