We gonna talk about the guy doing the wooden blocks in the back lol 😂 He looks so excited every times he jumps and slaps them Edit: Sorry, the slapstick’s. Our band director calls them wooden blocks.
Us horns are so freaking underrated eg in my concert band I had a WHOLE piece of just f’s OH and how can I forget 1 bloody A 😢like whyyyyyy WE DESERVE MORE!!!!!
Good job. I will be playing third horn part in a concert in a couple of weeks. That will be my first concert playing horn since high school back in the 1960s.
@@Stephie6645 damn dude in my orchestra (and the whole school actually) i’m the only student french horn but i’ve got a teacher who plays with me. keep it up 👍
When I was in high school I played alto sax. One small problem-so did about 6 other kids. My teacher put me on this part because we have no horns and he knew I could transpose. The next year I was sax section leader and played alto 1, then I took up clarinet and have played clarinet 1 on sleigh ride every year since
Do any horn players have advice on dealing with the fatigue of sleigh ride? I’ve been playing for years but my face is still absolutely dead by the end of this one, I need the stamina for playing this plus the rest of the concert lol. You made it look easy and sound super clean!!
Keeping tight corners and playing low on the mouthpiece. Let air control notes not pinching them out with your lips. Changing notes should be as simple as a slight mouth shape change and more or less air speed. If you’re adding or decreasing pressure for each note then your probably building bad habits and would explain the fatigue. Playing with your air will help your tone too as the pure tone of the horn is made by letting the instrument manipulate the air not the players lips
Vary your embochure, get into rhytmic movement where you nearly lift off the mouthpiece from your lips between notes, so you never build up too much permanent pressure.
What an amazing performance. I just wish the kid playing the horn would get out way and quit playing so loud so I could enjoy the slap stick performance.
I would have to commend you on not paying attention to the conductor (even though you always should) the fact you never lost feel of the beat proves that you take band seriously enough to actually practice at home😂😂😂😂
That’s funny. While I do take band seriously, I don’t practice at home as much as I should. I do have a really really good sense of pulse but I also look at the director religiously, mostly intros and cutoffs, but when I’m going, I’m going!
hi,I have been playing frenchhorn for three years on and off,but I find myself not liking this instrument as I often go too sharp on concert Bb note and there seems to be no excitement for me in band,do you have any tips to get better in frenchhorn?
I would say to set your lips lower on the mouthpiece. Work on consistency hitting notes. Use air speed to change notes and lips shape. Don’t build the bad habit on pushing Harder on the mouthpiece in order to get higher.
this guy has such a pretty sound! but anyway I don't like this song simply because of the "ands" or the upbeats. I wish I could play something different 😭
Add me @caseogden on insta!
I'll never get tired of this trend
Bro no one in my entire schools music program looks as good as this guy.
FR
test me as a trombone player reading french horn notes
Frrr
Bro its sum abt guys that play horn
you know how to transpose? we're not just in a diff key, we're pitched entirely different :)

Impressive nostril syncopation beginning at 0:35
true talent, i gotta say

I love his eyebrows
I saw that as well

As a tuba player, we live that downbeat life 😎

better than downbeats 🙄🤭

frr!
exactly
Exactly! One piece we played was called Colliding Visions and a good 90% of it was F with like 2 A’s and a C
This is the fastest sleigh ride I've heard! Very good playing though!
It’s about 120 bpm
@@caseogden Which I believe is the CORRECT tempo. At least that is what I have on my score. :)
as a fellow horn player, i feel your pain also you are v fine ❤
Thanks I appreciate it
bro i love when his nostrils flame when he plays a note
I love that you can hear the saxophones nearby!
Good job. I will be playing third horn part in a concert in a couple of weeks. That will be my first concert playing horn since high school back in the 1960s.
Good luck!! Let me know how it goes
aw the guy in the back is just the cutest !!
i didnt know harry potter played the french horn
good sound btw
I absolutely love this trend, I’m really glad to have gotten recommended a French horn part! Nice job dude!!!!
that was amazing playing i need to work a lot on my horn my mello and trumpet and tuba are sounding fine
WOW THEM TRUMPETS I CAN ACTUALLY HERE THE 3rd PART!!
That’s some clean slapstick playing
i love the french horn! sometimes i wish i could switch to french horn tbh
Which instrument do you play?
I play French Horn, it’s fun
Yeah but it’s super temperamental, not a pick up once a month and slowly learn kinda instrument. Either all in or not
@@caseogden as a horn player this is facts. It takes wayyy to long to get good at 😭
No you don’t.
Don’t you just love those after beats?!
Super clean!
From a horn player-you sound great! How many are in your band it sounds amazing
6 horns in my band
@@caseogden dang there’s only one in my band and it’s me

You did a great job playing this. Outstanding tone
Great job!
Great job...happy holidays
I've been seeing these 'sleigh ride ______ part' all over my TH-cam. first trumpet then oboe now this...
Well done!!!!
THE TRUMPETS HORSE SOUND HAHAHA I LOVE ITT
have played that part many times. also while playing the wip part. lots of fun.
1:20 Key signature man!!
Nah that’s my own personal flavor. Artist interpretation if you will 😏
as a horn player you did amazing
I love french horn,
and i play it
Damn fine job … pitch is excellent
remember me when ur famous
i personally love my switch to horn but i still play tenor and alto sax trumpet mello trombone baritone and tuba:,)
I should be switching to French horn it’s so cool
I play French Horn, definitely recommend but it can be a lot harder for some people

When you also play 1st Horn Part in Sleighride by Leroy Anderson lol 😎😎
yesss its that time of year again!!
I wanna do the wood blocks now! Forget the 1000’s of upbeats 🤣🤣🤣
My School just played this like the same time this was released
He do be a band kid😂👍🏼
Very handsome young man
Case so famous
Very nicely done. Listen also to Anderson's Suite of Carols for Brass Choir.
I’ll check it out, thanks for sharing!

The horn doesn’t have to be hard, it’s just requires the time to get muscle memory and lips shape for notes and air speed .
I’m a swimmer and also a trumpet, and saxophone player so my switch to horn was very smooth and I picked it up quick
@@edwardvargas342 aww hey what do you know, I’m a swimmer too!
Vary your embochure, get into rhytmic movement where you nearly lift off the mouthpiece from your lips between notes, so you never build up too much permanent pressure.
What kind of horn do you have, also do you use the bflat or f fingerings?
I have a Conn 8D. It’s a double horn and I switch to trigger starting at A and up. Open from G down
ah...such is life on the horn...on a daily basis....good job dude (even that errant b natural is ok....) :)
That B natural was my own personal flavor. Gotta keep it interesting somehow;)
@@caseogden Dude...great job!!! I've done worse.....stay strong!!!
He looks like Noah Schnapp
nah he look like my ex 💀💀💀💀💀

He looks more like Anthpo if he did music
1:30 alto sax sounded beutiful
I saw the sheet music for this piece. Unbelievably redundant. But it sounds great.
My band director decided to pick this song for our Christmas concert this next winter, not really looking forward to all those offbeats 😂
Great job. Will you be applying to Julliard?
Not planning on it lol
What an amazing performance. I just wish the kid playing the horn would get out way and quit playing so loud so I could enjoy the slap stick performance.
Was the slapstick guy also playing the bell part?
the fact that I imeadiately noticed the upbeats without even keeping tempo-
I wish horn also had the melody
from a 7th grade (or second year) horn player, i aspire to be as good as you are.
You’ll get there! It’s a challenging instrument and even the best players make mistake. Keep pushing and you’ll achieve your dreams
@@caseogden ty ur so sweet!! 🩷
Was that located at pshs
I GOT THE HORN
the guy jumping in the back 😭
🎅🎉
That’s weird how close you guys are to the altos were opposite side of French horns in front of trumpets and behind clarinets
I believe that is a standard for band seating
#watchPeopleDieInside
yeeee the upbeats😍😍😍 my favorties😘😘 (i hate them)
YESS, I play french horn but not this good I started maybe 3 months ago and is in 6th grade
Keep up the hard work, it gets fun in high school
You mean 1st *pain* part, right?
Choose your instrument, choose your fate
I know this sounds weird but every single french horn player's hands I've ever met has been stubby like that.... But how and why? What are the odds?
My hands aren’t really stubby lol
he just has really short nails which people who play instruments tend to have
@@cheerio4000 in which I've played the saxophone for a pretty long while yet I don't have those.
I have skinny fingers and I play horn

is this at kennedy?!?!
Unfortunately not
As a french horn player we had to take shifts with the off beats
as a fellow horn player I don't use those fingers when I play sleigh ride
His nose gose up every time he blows 😂 for the whole video. Of you look closely.
I watched his nostrils the entire time
who would've known the horn is the most boring instrument in this piece
(just joking, amazing job)

@@caseogden how do memorize the full chromatic scale?
@@jarrethan8105Using a fingering chart helps a bunch. Start off slow and keep speeding up until you reach the desired tempo.
We played this every year in high school. I ended up playing trombone senior year cause that horn part is unbearably boring lol
As a horn player I was disappointed to find out we are just metronomes.
te te te te te te te te te te te
my band teacher said he's too tired of sleigh ride :(
Guess not all of our band directors can be cool
as a clarinet, please respectfully be my friend
i can help you get into state bands… its pretty cool 😗😗
Ok sure
thats some nice nose breathing
Thanks partner
I do it too 😂
I was taught to keep the beat with my foot, this guy uses his nostrils
Why his nose movin like that?!?
What type of f horn mis that
Conn 8D
The nostrils.
Is bro Harry Potter?
this man is so fine
Smash
Bro your nose is the perfect metronome
