HAHA whenever we play at games, like football games, there are school photographers and they take pictures of the cheerleaders, the athletes, but NEVER THE MARCHING BAND. we are RIGHT BESIDE the cheerleaders but they just decide to ignore us ig 😔 we never get recognition when we're the ones making the game hype asf
While keeping proper posture, technique, and correct styles of playing for the show.... and also remembering where all your dots are and trying to catch a breath because youre like quadruple tasking💀💀🤣🤣🤣 good times tho
honestly as a clarinet player my full respect goes to Lindsay, its hard first learning the clarinet and she made such good progress, not only playing the song, but memorizing it for her first time playing the clarinet, AND LEARNING THE CLARINET IN A WEEK. like, what?!?! Lindsay's mom for sure gave her some musical genes, she learned quick! and hey, we all squeak
My needs were so fulfilled when they said that band was a sport omg. No one ever agrees with us band kids when we say its a sport and our football team thinks we're a joke so. :/
Literally this one football player said band wasn’t a sport and the entire band went off on him😭 even the science teacher did! He was like “Yeah you shouldn’t mess with the band people” Oh he did not know the power of us🤐
Everyone's talking bout clarinets stuff and I'm here thrown off by the fact that Jazzmyne gave a three beat for a 2/4 song it should've been either two beats or four beats
@@sharppatriciam Somehow it provides no shelter from the heat in August, and yet no warmth in November, and someone always ends up passing out or getting pneumonia.
I think if Lindsay thinks regular band is a sport, they need to take what they learned and try some marching. Even one day of band camp would suffice lol
i played clarinet and drum worst thing in the world is when your reed breaks or splits...(i also started in 5th grade and our go to song was the starwars theme, i got so sick of hearing it lol)
As a clarinetist a future music educator, I appreciate this video. So many people don't understand music classes unless you're in one. Also, Lindsay, you should be very proud of yourself that you picked up clarinet that quickly.
I wish this pandemic wasn’t happening because I would love to see you with a real HS marching band. The whole nine yards of learning the instrument, learning drill, the technique.... it’s harder than it looks. Edit: I was in the colorguard, band camp was rough.
Me, a percussionist, looking at Jasmine when she’s playing sitting down: NOOOOOO Me, a percussionist watching her grip the sticks right: YESSSSSSSSSS They did well? But their tempo was always a little weird, and the drum was WAYYYYYYY too low for her, the drum should make your arms just over 90 degrees, not 180. Also clarinetist should most likely play with a metronome or a backing track of what Jasmine is playing. I love that this video gave band kids recognition, and the fact that they said that band was hard was RELEAVING to show to a large audience. I’m still a sophomore, I’ve been playing percussion for just about 5 years, I have spent song after song being Tracey or having 300 parts I need to keep track of, and I wish they had pent more time giving Jasmine not just snare but things like guiro, marimba, vibe, block, xylo, quads, marching snare (it’s always good to experience the weight of the snare of the shoulders), cowbell, triangle, etc. (watch EMC productions to see all the percussion instruments (there’s over 100)). Playing instruments are not only hard, but dedication, sporty, memorization, and just overwhelming sometimes. The fact that they helped show that to other people, especially in a widespread TH-cam channel, made me feel respected and happy, although I wish they had spent more time working on things like describing the strokes (she was downstroaking a little) showing how high the drum should be, so one so forth (the worst part about playing a mallet instrument is when you grow or another person gets your instrument and you have to adjust the height of the board which requires you to hold the board up-mind u this thing is over 100 pounds-until it’s the fight height). So thanks, you guys.
And Lindsay honey- that was condensation inside your instrument it wasn’t spit- your instrument is cold and while blowing hot hair into it makes it fill with condensation, the flutes and my school we shake our hand back and fourth with our head joints and our condensation comes out 😆
@@xxnelliexx brass uses spit valves, they open up the valve and then blow into the instrument, this pushes condensation and spit out of the instrument.
I have to disagree with the "condensation" thing. I've been playing clarinet for decades. It's slobber. Seriously. The moisture that condenses in there is from your mouth and lungs, which is exactly where spit comes from. All I can say is if you're a wind player, you get used to it.
I’m a freshman and played clarinet all thru middle school, and I was going to play it in high school, but then color guard was my interest. Either way I’m a part of the marching band show (which I’ve anted to do since fourth grade when my sis was a freshman) and I love it!!!
Band is honestly the best thing that happened to me. Ive been playing in band since about 4th grade im a junior now and i play the entire brass section.
Lindsey as a clarinetist I want you to know that I appreciate you and all the work you put in!! Learning the clarinet in such a short amount of time is a crazy goal and you did great for the time you had! I've been playing for DECADES and I still squeak from time to time! Be proud of your accomplishments!!! 💕💕
Thank you so much for shining a light on us band nerds. I personally played in band for 12 years and now I have taught music for 2 years and band for 1 and I am teaching for the 4th year this year. I am and always will be a band nerd and I love it when I see appreciation for it. And as a fellow clarinet player, Lindsey you did great! It is so hard but for never ever playing I say its a success
The band teacher at my high school is scary. He was in the military so he is very strict and you better get marching right. Have to memorize 3 pages of music in only a couple of days. And as a 4c school they compete against 5c schools and won state, nationals and world competitions
@@Aubrey07412 Same One day he told my class he would give his credit card number. Told us it fast. He loves anime, coffee,cats, music and runs a video game club on Fridays
Lindsey: "How am I supposed to practice, clarinets are pretty loud"? Me: *Laughs in saxophonist and sometimes having to match Trumpet or French horn volume*
@Ella Rogers I play the trumpet and it is also loud and my parents used to make me practice outside when I played but now they let me practice inside😂I get spit globs on me all the time and it’s nasty
12:30 is so relatable I can't EVEN!! I play flute and it makes you really light-headed and dizzy after you play. as Lindsey said, it is really fun when you do the music right and really miserable when you do it wrong.
Love that band is getting some attention! I spent all of high school and college in marching band and 4 total years as the “leader person” (aka drum major). You guys are doing great!
Imagining that stress plus marching. Linsey is me in band. I play French horn and we have to play a mellophones for marching band and it switches fingerings and hands. And Jazz with the uniform is 50% of the band on game days.
I am a percussionist in band for my school so i know how snares/drums go together and I think it’s funny that no one noticed that she completely put it upside down lol
I've played the piccolo but mine was typically sharp. I preferred my baritone sax over the piccolo any day. (But I was better at the flute and piccolo since it was my main instrument)
As a player of both percussion and the clarinet I can appreciate the effort and I can 100% understand the frustration and difficulty that comes with music
As someone who did orchestra from 4th grade to high-school any type of ability to understand what your suppose to play is what's important. We had an autistic girl who couldn't play so we turned her bow around and we never let her play alone . She thought she helped with the beautiful harmony and she did bc she inspired us to make her and anyone who came like her after her sound just as beautiful after 4 years of consistency from the same orchestra plus who followed and who graduated she was able to play the pink panther by they time she herself graduated
I played clarinet 6th-12th grades and honestly you killed it. It takes a lot to learn an instrument so good job! I ended up doing colorguard for marching band 10th-12th grades but still played for concert band. The fundamentals are definitely toughest, (like you learned how to read music and play the song!!) and you learned it virtually. 👏🏻👏🏻
i played clarinet in middle school. my band teacher was *SO MEAN* 1. threatened to break someone’s phone because it rang. 2. would slam stuff and stomp over to you if you got a note wrong. 3. yell at you if you forget your instrument. 4. make you clean / organize the instrument room. 5. made me scrub ink off the floor in front of the whole class.
When she doots the doot snoot and the captions say *flute squeaks* Me, a clarinetist: *stares into the middle distance, slowly eating a single cheeto* EDIT: Jazz: I had to hold down my family name with the clarinets. Photo: *is of her playing a recorder*
The clarinet high note aka controlled squeal. I played clarinet and could hear my fellow clarinetist praying the high note came out and not an ear shattering squawk
@@sharppatriciam I know what you mean omg. I live in fear of the squeak. But, no, I was more snarking at them calling the clarinet a flute. ㅠ^ㅠ This is clarinet erasure and I will not stand for it!
As a clarinetist, this is both painful to hear and painfully accurate. Some tips for Lindsay: -Watch the flying fingers. Keep your fingers relaxed and close to the instrument so that it doesn't take so long to get to the next note -You can practice making sound through the mouthpiece and barrel alone (top two pieces, no keys) -Don't blow down into the instrument, blow straight towards the back of the mouthpiece and it'll direct the airflow (that's what the slant is for) - Keep your chin at an almost 90° angle with your neck. If you imagine someone pushing the clarinet through your head, it should come out (bear with me here) in the center of the top but also farthest back spot of your head. Think of the only spot Phineas has hair on his head.
I’ve been playing clarinet for about a year, so it was super cool to see Lindsey play it! I don’t see many people who play clarinet online (that I watch) so it was great to see her play it. I say she didn’t do too bad 😂
This video gave me the idea to break out my clarinet I haven’t touched in 3.5 years...I probably just was using a crappy 4 year old reed but it was not pretty😂
I play most woodwind instruments and Lindsay, might I say, you’re a trooper for choosing clarinet. That is a difficult one and you did really well for only playing for a week, good job!!
Us band kids really appreciate you calling it a sport. With marching band you get a whole different experience. Imagine playing music while either walking a few miles of parade route or running all over a football field. The fact that you guys did that in a week is pretty impressive though. Shout out to the mellophones 🎺!!!
I was in band and I played a stand up bass which is huge for me as a 5’1 girl. If we were playing at football games, we would drag an amp and a electric bass. Marching band for my city’s rose parade I had to learn trumpet in a week. Thankfully I didn’t play cause the day of the parade it was raining so bad we cancelled on playing in the parade.
@recoil53 honestly it is really funny. It made a lot of the band parents when I carried it on tours since I have to hunch my back like a turtle so it wouldn’t hit the back of my legs lol
Y'all did great! And Lindsay you took on a DIFFICULT instrument and you did great! That feeling of loving it when it works and hating it when you struggle is so hard and we all go through it but good job sweetie!!!!!
Aww I love this! I am one of the drum majors for my band and it means a lot for someone to say that it is hard and it is a sport, because it is very hard. Not a lot of people realize that so thank you❤️🎵
With the flutes, my teacher said that it requires the most air, I play the clarinet but thought I wanted to play the flute. I tried the instruments out and decided on clarinet.
My primary in college is French horn in college my first wind instrument was clarinet when I was 6 I am now 21 and I play 13 instruments 😂 this video reminds me of all the years of hard work and practice that I and many others have put into this craft and this video truly gives us band kids the recognition we deserve thank you ❤️
I’ve played clarinet in 6th grade till 7th and I understand how Lindsay is feeling. I moved to saxophone and my teachers allow me to experiment with a lot of the instruments! I’m doing marching band this high school summer
At 2:58 did they not give her cork grease 😭 ? Her mom watched her struggle to put on the bell for probably 20 seconds and didn’t say “ Hey did you know that the chapstick looking thing in your case is lube ? “
I ive been playing clarinet for over 4 years and on my first few days I was exactly like Lindsey and I didn’t understand what I did wrong but it’s played off over the years lol
At least you don’t have to March. I play clarinet and had to learn to March,play a flip book work of music, attend a football game and memorize March music in ONE WEEK. Because I missed band camp 😢. That was the WORST WEEK OF MY LIFE
14:40 ok now do that but with you band director yelling and screaming at you section to stay on beat and yelling at low brass “PLAY THE B FLAT!!!!!!!!!!!!” “KEEP THE NOTES SEPARATED!!!!”
we practice for a few months before a concert, the fact that they learned an instrument, memorized a song, and played in infront of people in only a week is amazing.
“So much saliva” imagine if y’all attempted brass hahaha it’s a fun time! Also loved this video bc band is so freaking fun and a great hobby to play music :) tuba and trumpet player here (and hella short at 5’1!) great job!
Thank you for saying band is an athletic skill. The breath control you need for a wind instrument is insane & then when marching there’s miles of walking & carrying your instrument (which is a huge change for drums). I actually got multiple letters for my time in band in high school & proudly wore my “non athletic” letterman jacket. Once quarantine is over I want you guys to try playing while marching. First as a parade (use your feet to keep time while trying not to trip on road bop dots & horse leavings), & 2nd as a football halftime show where you need to memorize the song, memorize the choreography, & still play correctly to the beat!
I wouldve gladly went into highschool band but the director is ex military and NO ONE likes him at all (i have an uncle that ex military and hes terrible)
Lindsey: Clarinets are quite loud.
Trumpet enters the chat
Ikr, clarinets are quiet 🤐
Trombone players enter the chat...😂
Piccolos enter the chat
I play flute 🤭
The instrument isn't as loud as their ego. Woodwinds ftw!
“weve been performing all day... no one’s paid us” GURL I- THE MOST RELATABLE SENTENCE FOR MARCHING BAND

When you get a text from your friends saying that all of our Middle School band teacher is in this video. Mr. T is and was the best band teacher ever!
Right?! A fantastic surprise XD
He's good at finding a positive and being enthusiastic.
My band and choir teacher is literally the best. we are making a music video and I am so happy
Wow he seemed like he would be a favorite teacher among the students.
If I’m going to be completely honest, clarinet and flute are the hardest
After corona, they should join marching band practice full force.
They would die
@@saracat76 that's hilarious 🤣
So, they will have chosen... death?
Wait wait? Competitive marching band or regular marching band? Because I would pay big money to watch them in a competitive marching band😂😂
seems like there'll be two melted women later in the future
Now imagine having to play those instruments while also having to put on a whole marching show or marching in a parade
While wearing the marching band uniform
While keeping proper posture, technique, and correct styles of playing for the show.... and also remembering where all your dots are and trying to catch a breath because youre like quadruple tasking💀💀🤣🤣🤣 good times tho
Along with dancing, remembering field commands for formations, etc.
Ah yes but somehow it’s not a f-ing sport. Ok suuuuuuuure it isn’t. I hate people who say that, it aggravates me for some reason😂😂

Part of the reason u are having a hard time with the clarinet is that u have a very bad clarinet. 😂
I saw the brand then CRINGED
Wait what brand was it? I personally play a buffet capron e 13
Yeahhh lol! I was also curious what strength reed she was using bc that’ll make a difference for a newby too lol
@@maureenk2625 it's a gLoRy
Should've used a yamaha
As someone who did orchestra from 4th grade to high-school any type of ability to understand what your suppose to play is what's important. We had an autistic girl who couldn't play so we turned her bow around and we never let her play alone . She thought she helped with the beautiful harmony and she did bc she inspired us to make her and anyone who came like her after her sound just as beautiful after 4 years of consistency from the same orchestra plus who followed and who graduated she was able to play the pink panther by they time she herself graduated
I played clarinet 6th-12th grades and honestly you killed it. It takes a lot to learn an instrument so good job!
I ended up doing colorguard for marching band 10th-12th grades but still played for concert band. The fundamentals are definitely toughest, (like you learned how to read music and play the song!!) and you learned it virtually. 👏🏻👏🏻
lindsay and jazz make buzzfeed don’t fight me
i played clarinet in middle school. my band teacher was *SO MEAN*
1. threatened to break someone’s phone because it rang.
2. would slam stuff and stomp over to you if you got a note wrong.
3. yell at you if you forget your instrument.
4. make you clean / organize the instrument room.
5. made me scrub ink off the floor in front of the whole class.
What a horrible teacher. Sorry u had the experience
When she doots the doot snoot and the captions say *flute squeaks*
Me, a clarinetist: *stares into the middle distance, slowly eating a single cheeto*
EDIT:
Jazz: I had to hold down my family name with the clarinets.
Photo: *is of her playing a recorder*
The clarinet high note aka controlled squeal. I played clarinet and could hear my fellow clarinetist praying the high note came out and not an ear shattering squawk
@@sharppatriciam I know what you mean omg. I live in fear of the squeak. But, no, I was more snarking at them calling the clarinet a flute. ㅠ^ㅠ This is clarinet erasure and I will not stand for it!
Okay, now we need the choir version of this. Including all of the (sometimes embarrassing) warm-ups
As a clarinetist, this is both painful to hear and painfully accurate.
Some tips for Lindsay:
-Watch the flying fingers. Keep your fingers relaxed and close to the instrument so that it doesn't take so long to get to the next note
-You can practice making sound through the mouthpiece and barrel alone (top two pieces, no keys)
-Don't blow down into the instrument, blow straight towards the back of the mouthpiece and it'll direct the airflow (that's what the slant is for)
- Keep your chin at an almost 90° angle with your neck. If you imagine someone pushing the clarinet through your head, it should come out (bear with me here) in the center of the top but also farthest back spot of your head. Think of the only spot Phineas has hair on his head.
I’ve been playing clarinet for about a year, so it was super cool to see Lindsey play it! I don’t see many people who play clarinet online (that I watch) so it was great to see her play it. I say she didn’t do too bad 😂
0:02 - clarinet squeaks
captions: FLUTE BEEPS
smh
Kate is such a great teacher! They have been so helpful with Jazz and Lindsey re-dos!
This video gave me the idea to break out my clarinet I haven’t touched in 3.5 years...I probably just was using a crappy 4 year old reed but it was not pretty😂
I play most woodwind instruments and Lindsay, might I say, you’re a trooper for choosing clarinet. That is a difficult one and you did really well for only playing for a week, good job!!
Lindsey: Help.
Her mother: *Laughs in first chair*
Us band kids really appreciate you calling it a sport. With marching band you get a whole different experience. Imagine playing music while either walking a few miles of parade route or running all over a football field. The fact that you guys did that in a week is pretty impressive though.
Shout out to the mellophones 🎺!!!
I was in band and I played a stand up bass which is huge for me as a 5’1 girl. If we were playing at football games, we would drag an amp and a electric bass. Marching band for my city’s rose parade I had to learn trumpet in a week. Thankfully I didn’t play cause the day of the parade it was raining so bad we cancelled on playing in the parade.
At 5'1"? Sorry, but that picture must be hilarious.
@recoil53 honestly it is really funny. It made a lot of the band parents when I carried it on tours since I have to hunch my back like a turtle so it wouldn’t hit the back of my legs lol
Y'all did great! And Lindsay you took on a DIFFICULT instrument and you did great! That feeling of loving it when it works and hating it when you struggle is so hard and we all go through it but good job sweetie!!!!!
I think Lindsay did a better job than I did when I first started playing the clarinet
I’ve been playing clarinet for years and Lindsay still did it better than I ever could
When she put her drum together it was upside down I am a percussionist (drummer) cringe
Aww I love this! I am one of the drum majors for my band and it means a lot for someone to say that it is hard and it is a sport, because it is very hard. Not a lot of people realize that so thank you❤️🎵
Dude I play the flute that’s one of the hardest instruments
i play the oboe and flute i can relate
i wanted to play the clairanet but my teacher wouldnt let me
With the flutes, my teacher said that it requires the most air, I play the clarinet but thought I wanted to play the flute. I tried the instruments out and decided on clarinet.
My primary in college is French horn in college my first wind instrument was clarinet when I was 6 I am now 21 and I play 13 instruments 😂 this video reminds me of all the years of hard work and practice that I and many others have put into this craft and this video truly gives us band kids the recognition we deserve thank you ❤️
I feel like everyones mom played clarinet in high school lmao
I have my first marching band performance as a freshman next week on the 24th! I play clarinet!! So I really enjoyed watching this 😭
Where da clarinets at? (Every kind of clarinet) (I play the bass)
Like if you are one

I play bass clarinet and regular!
I played bass clarinet last year, and I’m hoping that I get the opportunity to do it again this year!!!
Clarinet music major here!
@@amberrivera4620 I hope so too! Good luck! :)
@@rachellanders2580 aye
When you play a woodwind instrument and understand the pain Lindsay is going through 😂😂 also drum majors are pretty rad
TH-cam: Comments: 3
Me: wait a second... There is more than 3 comments... mmmh...
I’ve played clarinet in 6th grade till 7th and I understand how Lindsay is feeling. I moved to saxophone and my teachers allow me to experiment with a lot of the instruments! I’m doing marching band this high school summer
I miss band when I was in high school good times 😔👌🏻
Bless you both for taking this on. It's not easy to learn any new instrument! Love that you did it!
The whole time I was wondering what reed Lindsay was using. I mean the reed can break or make you. For everyone a Rico Royal 3.0 works best for me.
Rico reeds!? VanDorin reeds are where its at!
The use 2.5 from rico
My BF is a Middle school band teacher I’m gonna send this to him I know he’s gonna love it 💛💛💛 Great job you guys!!!
At 2:58 did they not give her cork grease 😭 ? Her mom watched her struggle to put on the bell for probably 20 seconds and didn’t say “ Hey did you know that the chapstick looking thing in your case is lube ? “
I’m a music major and this made me feel so happy and appreciated ❤️
I ive been playing clarinet for over 4 years and on my first few days I was exactly like Lindsey and I didn’t understand what I did wrong but it’s played off over the years lol
At least you don’t have to March. I play clarinet and had to learn to March,play a flip book work of music, attend a football game and memorize March music in ONE WEEK. Because I missed band camp 😢. That was the WORST WEEK OF MY LIFE
Lindsey thinks blowing air into the clarinet is hard well try playing tuba or trombone
14:40 ok now do that but with you band director yelling and screaming at you section to stay on beat and yelling at low brass “PLAY THE B FLAT!!!!!!!!!!!!” “KEEP THE NOTES SEPARATED!!!!”
Nobody:
Me: twerking every time the music comes on
we practice for a few months before a concert, the fact that they learned an instrument, memorized a song, and played in infront of people in only a week is amazing.
I was just telling my bf that band isn’t as easy as some people think it is😭
“So much saliva” imagine if y’all attempted brass hahaha it’s a fun time! Also loved this video bc band is so freaking fun and a great hobby to play music :) tuba and trumpet player here (and hella short at 5’1!) great job!
Hi yes the high school band one of the most terrifying and stressful things in high school🙃
@Hamilton Trash05 True and This year I don’t have choice to but to take the class
Thank you for saying band is an athletic skill. The breath control you need for a wind instrument is insane & then when marching there’s miles of walking & carrying your instrument (which is a huge change for drums). I actually got multiple letters for my time in band in high school & proudly wore my “non athletic” letterman jacket. Once quarantine is over I want you guys to try playing while marching. First as a parade (use your feet to keep time while trying not to trip on road bop dots & horse leavings), & 2nd as a football halftime show where you need to memorize the song, memorize the choreography, & still play correctly to the beat!
Next they join the high school wrestling team
As a band teacher this makes me SO happy! You guys did great!
I wouldve gladly went into highschool band but the director is ex military and NO ONE likes him at all (i have an uncle that ex military and hes terrible)
Lindsey looks a lot like her Mom. I was laughing the whole time.
Jazz: "We love the support" lol 😂🤣🤣😂
Did the instructor tell lindsay to lift her tongue while playing? That's probably why she sounds real bad.
