aww oboes and bassons have such a nice sound it's so cool to see all this community on tiktok! I kind of regret, as an accordion player, that we don't really have that thing, among the accordion community
Most of these people come from American Band Classes, they have been taught their instruments through school and all by the same method in the same place, which can be quite unifying due to relatability. It also means once you've met one you've met them all and it gets really old after a while, never met an accordionist who isn't a cool person however
@@sunnysbrokenv1olinIn the first few years after I started playing, I’ve accidentally swung my bassoon at my colleague a few times before and got close to hitting them. 😂
@@artemiosandoval2032 Uhm it actually doesn’t hurt that much so I don’t think your colleague would have been hurt if it did end up hitting them it is surprising when it happens though XD, I’ve been hit with a basson 1 to many times to count😅
8:59 I agree with that guy. People when they see me carrying my oboe case, they think its a flute. The, I say its an oboe and they reply back "what's an oboe?"
@@13_cmi on the oboe you have to like pulse your breathe into the reed so the vibrato comes from your air and not by moving your lips or anything. it's rlly weird but once you get the hang of it, it gets easier and easier
Seeing these vids make me want to cry bc almost everyone forgets what they r. I’m a bassoon myself and I love playing. Theses vids show how fun it can be being a double reed player. I’m forever going to be a double reed fan
Double reed instrumentalists don't get enough credit. The reed itself was pretty difficult for me to use (I was a clarinetist/bass clarinetist before trying bassoon). The oboe and bassoon are also heavily underrated.
My older sister was a real pig, she was a flute player and would never let me practice the oboe, saying the oboe was ugly and only she had a right to practice because flutes are soft and "pretty" and would scream whenever I tried to practice, smacking my bedroom door with the broom handle yelling at me to shut up. Needless to say, I immediately dislike all flute players at first glance because of her and honestly hate the sound of a flute.
Pro tip: if you play the oboe like I do, get yourself a bff who plays bassoon so you can grumble about reeds together and confuse all your other friends
I remember my first band concert in 6th grade when all the clarinets squeaked and me being the o n l y oboe player somehow caused the squeak of 20 people and got blamed for it
Don’t let that other dude scare you go for bassoon it’s more rare and gets more scholarships btw and it’s already in bass clef so you can read the music it’s definitely not easy but give it a try!!
@@AdamMathews I play bassoon and trombone lol bassoon isn’t too terribly bad especially if he already can read bass clef I’ve been playing bassoon for 5 ish years trombone for 2 and have a few years experience with tenor saxophone and clarinet both bass and Eb
Ok so I play alto sax in band at school but I have a bunch of other band friends. •Tea time• So I Have a friend in oboe class and they're pretty small, just three oboe players. But there is one bassoon player there. Just one. There was only one, and they couldn't make a whole bassoon class with one person. Had to put him in the oboe class. That's how you know it's one of the neglected instruments.
I'm not a bassoonist or an Oboe player, but the video on here describing a lawnmower running over a shoe, had me literally laughing out loud to the point I got my girlfriend's attention away from her video game. I'm a Tuba player and an electric bass player.
Warning before you start (it's a small warning but this gets on my nerves): you will ALWAYS feel very lightheaded after you play (even a sharp pain in your head like a migraine but worse for a few seconds), even a few measure will make you feel dizzy because it's so much fast air in such a tiny hole. 8/10 rating as an oboe player, if you sound good it's easy to play, but if you sound bad (lol me) then your going to not really like it. Go for it though!!
my school's oboes: *At each other's necks* Meanwhile me and the other bassoon: *Ayyyy* idk if this factors in but the oboes are all girls and the other bassoon is a boy, I'm a girl edit: I am very annoyed at other bassoon, and am very much not a girl (genderfluid)
Double reeds are amazing, but I’m just not willing to learn reedmaking. Started violin and said goodbye to reeds several years ago. Wish I’d started with violin as a kid. Still adore the oboe though.
anyone else rent an oboe from your school and then have the case look lowkey moldy? and then you meet another oboist w/ the same director whos case is lowkey perfect or talk really fast so when you say the oboe they think you play the elbow? no? just me? oh
