Does anyone else think that the steel tongue drums and the vibraphone just sound so calming and almost like a lullaby? Especially with those particular songs?
I think the steel tongue drum is now my favorite thing Jupiter has been played on, and that’s coming after I’ve played it with clarinets while I’m on the contralto clarinet. It’s just so pretty on the drum
I wonder if you could design some sort of contraption with a pair of gloves or some sort of finger attachments, so you have a drum stick on the end of all ten fingers so you could play things like the vibraphone or the xylophone like a piano. Maybe you still wouldn't be able to do all the same chords you can do on a piano because the keys are to big, with to much space in between them, but you'd still be able to do a lot more. Have you ever thought about trying to make something like that?
Hearing some of these melodies brought back some long ago memories of watching Little Einsteins in the 2000’s. Dang, that took me back, and I’m almost eighteen.
can you do more cool percussion sounds, really liked that vid and would like to see more of what people used to make noises in movies/tv! Anyways, great vid as always, and have a safe year!!
Claire de lune gave me Shivers cause I used to watch/listen to this Disc I had that helped me sleep and that was one of the songs- all my childhood memories I didn't remember are flooding back-!
Fun fact: When designing the music for the first Zelda game, Koji Kondo was originally going to use Bolero (the third piece played here). They changed it to the theme we all know and love because in Japan, a tune becomes available to use by the public at least 50 years after the composer passes away. How many years has it been in 1986? 49. Here is the video that explains it more: th-cam.com/video/sFS-cfPipj8/w-d-xo.html In the video is a recreation of what the overworld theme could have sounded like: 15:26
Joe, I enjoy your percussion videos with the cool instruments. Have you heard of Spike Jones? He was a percussionist back in the 1940's and 50's who played novelty music. He played a set of cowbells set up and tuned like a xylophone, and played it extensively on his recordings.You should check him out and try building a cowbell set up like his.
@1:44 Im kind of high right now... married man age 39, two kids and a wife... work a steady job.... and listening to this little part for the third time right now... smiling like an idiot... i dont know why... i cant really understand this feeling, i think im going to cry.
The Clair de lune by Debussy always made me sad I don't know why I think it's the tone, pitch, tempo and the notes that it plays and how they are played always made a atmosphere that made me sad idk why it just does
Great work Joe. I mean, ya, a gimmick of running between the instruments... But you also pull it off flawlessly. I love that rendition of the Bolero. :) Well, it's all great!
Jupiter on the tongue drum sounds so mystical, I love it. Nachtmusik on the steel pan though, gave me flashbacks to when I was a child; my family's landline had some preset ringtones, one of them was a chip tune version of Nachtmusik. We assigned that one to either Dad or Grandma, I forget who. But it was someone who called on the reg, so I heard it a lot and it was goddamn obnoxious.
1:01 how tf do you play that fast I wouldn't be able to even if I practiced for a month Edit: I have been playing percussion since I was 4 years old (9 years now) and you are a big inspiration
I would love to hear all Claire de Lune on the vibraphone. It sounds so pretty!
Second
1:37
I would love to hear Chopin's Grande Valse Brilliante on vibraphone, too.
This song gives me nightmare from band class 5th grade
I'm afraid it's not big enough for the rest of clair de lune ;-;
Playing the snare drum one-handed and somehow still playing the melody with the other hand is a whole nother level of talent
@@NZsaltz agreed, especially the doubling
@@NZsaltz this excerpt has sextuplets in the right hand and sixteenth note melody in the left. It’s very tricky!
How can the flairdrum sound so good, it's criminal 😂
🤣 the magic of plastic bottles filled with air!
@@JoePorterPercussion lmao
yae!
@@JoePorterPercussion discovered this instrument on your channel.... Now I want to build one🤣
@@JoePorterPercussion I would still arrange it 6-6 though.
I'm not one for Classical Music, but that Clair De Lune actually suits the Vibraphone!
i thought so to!
@Ett i Alex elaborate
But the persons name who composed it-
*DEBUSSY*
@@Grandmeemaw very funny.
The practice to achieve this level of playing must be insane. Huge respect to you, completely changed my outlook on the marimba and vibraphone
0:14 Mozart when he was born in a tropical island :
I would pay to hear a full cover of Clair de Lune on vibraphone. Sweet sound!
Marimba
Steel Pan
Snare Drums Flairdrums
Xylophone
Steel Tongue
Vibraphone
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for making this happen! Also, I was not expecting you to play Gustav Holst. He's my most favorite composer.
😀 Holst’s music is amazing!
@@JoePorterPercussion Can you please do BTS songs.
@@JoePorterPercussion is it ever! my favourite of the planets is mars
@@chickenface3163 who *doesn't* Iike holst's mars? it's incredible!
@@curple3 it's so compelling!
Very impressive. Keep doing such a great job!🥁
Thanks and have a nice day!

Congratulations, you figured out the intention of those instruments.

0:46 I love this song here!
Piece
Claire De Lune sounded so amazing, I felt so relaxed. Please, I beg you, play the whole thing.
clair de lune has to be my favorite classical song, its so calm
Jupiter Bringer of Jollity is just so good
Beautiful sounds of this instruments and you're talented man. Keep it up!!! 😀
i apologize for these bots
The instruments are good
that ending was actually really chilling
As a percussionist myself I think you are amazing and how do you play with multiple sticks on marimba xylophone and vibraphone like that it’s amazing
Surprising that I know the tunes to all of those songs but not the names….. so much classical music in popular culture 🙌👍😁
Well the names sound like a 3 year old was texting.
Moonlight sonata

You HAVE to do a full video of Clair de Lune with the vibraphone !
I love how he plays the nice slow part of Jupiter
0:19 The k in “kleine Nachtmusik” has to be written as a small one, because it is an adjective, not a noun
What a grand finale! 👏 Any classical song sounds amazing performed in any instrument (specially a vibraphone)
1:03. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT MUSIC FOR YEARS TYSM!
1:39 clair de lune sounds so relaxing
Hearing some of these melodies brought back some long ago memories of watching Little Einsteins in the 2000’s. Dang, that took me back, and I’m almost eighteen.
Thank you for featuring 🇹🇹 our national instrument, the steelpan 🇹🇹, and its versatility longer this time.
Me, a former orchestra kid: "Not Canon in D not Canon in D not Canon in D.... phew."
🤣🤣🤣
1:01 and 1:18 - Bluey music (Magic Xylophone and Sleepytime)
I love your content and your music is unbelievable
@Elizabetz 💞 go away >:[
🙏 Have a great day!
how long have you been doing percussion for? i’ve been doing it for 4 years, you inspire me and it’s very impressive!
It's been awhile, glad to see you back
And you did more with the steel tongue drums, this makes me happy.
🙂 I moved to a new house and that was a big process! All setup now!
@@JoePorterPercussion glad to hear it.
:)
1. Beethoven Fur Elise 🎵
2. Mozart Eilne kleine nachtmusik 🎵
3. Ravel Bolero 🎵
4. Mozart Rondo alla turca 🎵
5. Holst jupiter the bringer of jollity from planets 🎵
6. debussy Clair de lune 🎵
Wow you played Rondo Alla Turca really well!! You’re a genius in your craft!
I really love how he approaches these videos
Nachtmusic on the steel pan is just delightful.
I like how he does it like it’s no problem
0:30 I love how Joe just casually throws the sticks
That is soo amazing!! Just loved it!! Great video!! Amazing work!!
🙏 Have a nice day!
Clair de Lune: *plays*
*sighs in danganronpa fan* Kaede would have loved this
As someone who plays the Turkish March, I am very proud of this masterpiece 👏🏼
We played Planets for my freshman marching band season and Jupiter was my all time favorite from that set
I love the way deeper notes on the marimba kind of remind me of the rain
can you do more cool percussion sounds, really liked that vid and would like to see more of what people used to make noises in movies/tv! Anyways, great vid as always, and have a safe year!!
1:42 clair of moom by Debussy Vibraphone
Claire de lune gave me Shivers cause I used to watch/listen to this Disc I had that helped me sleep and that was one of the songs- all my childhood memories I didn't remember are flooding back-!
vibraphone, xylophone, marimba, kalimba, that plastic bottle thing and steel tongue drum are my favourite 😍
Good ‘ol fur Elise never hurt anybody!
I didn’t get much sleep last night, and when Clair De Lune played, I felt my eyes drooping 😆 Amazing video!
When my sister was in marching band, she had a clarinet solo and played the motif from Clair de Lune so anytime I hear it, I get nostalgic
Fun fact: When designing the music for the first Zelda game, Koji Kondo was originally going to use Bolero (the third piece played here). They changed it to the theme we all know and love because in Japan, a tune becomes available to use by the public at least 50 years after the composer passes away.

I dunno why but Clare de lune is one of my most favorite classical pieces. I just like the notes pitches and everything.
I think Movement 4 from Eine Kleine Nachtmusik would also sound cool on a steel pan.
I REALLY LOVOE HOLTS, AND JUPITER IN THAT TONGUE DRUMS ARE SO COOOL💕
im bout to shed a tear from that last song, brings back memories
Those last two were very calming!
WHOA that vibraphone is amazing! It’s so beautiful!
Your skill is INSANE
00:15 Look what kind of music we Germans make🤣👍
(And yes,im out of germany!)
if you want i can translate all song titles in english for you!
1. For Elise
2. A little night music

0:54: that the same music in a game called "cell to singularity" when your in the Mesozoic era level🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Great work Joe.
I mean, ya, a gimmick of running between the instruments...
But you also pull it off flawlessly.
I love that rendition of the Bolero. :)
Well, it's all great!
I'm Japanese, but music is very attractive because I can enjoy it regardless of language. This video shows that. very good!!
1:40 is just...❤️❤️❤️❤️
Clair de lune on the vibraphone gave me chills. Beautiful
I was amazed at the Mozart part he's so fast! And the others are amazing too!

Man that last one was so relaxing, I almost fell asleep peacefully lol.
The classical music played on the Marimba, Xylophone, and Vibraphone sounded like something out of Baby Einstein and that’s a compliment.
Oh yes, just play the snare part and melody to Bolero simultaneously... no big deal.
Wow bro, you play the instruments so nice, keep uploading this types of videos!!
This man appreciates all music wow
Hats off
Jupiter was very chill sounding compared to the orchestral version, but they were all lovely ^_^
I can feel the vibration on my chest it feels cool but calming
God that last one almost put me to sleep 😅
so glad you included Jupiter! It's actually my school song and it reminds me of when we play at football games :)
WOW..... awesome choices of music and well played too 👍
Bruh that last one puts the great army of all the nations combined to sleep. So peaceful
1:34 nice puma socks lol
The amount of talent...unbelievable❤️
God, everything else I can recognize immediate, but I did not expect to be hit with this wave of nolstagia at 1:20
It reminds me of the song "I vow to thee country"
Steel Tongue Drums are so relaxing.
those old songs always did need a change
Very beautiful and lovely in the sound 💗💗🤩 and vary vary fantastic
I think you should do a video similar to this but with instruments from your favorite country.
I love the content! Keep it up!
🙏 Have a nice day!
@Elizabetz 💞 wtf
🧁🍦🍨🛼
1:02 GIVE ME THAT MAGIC XYLOPHONE!
1 Marimba
2 Steel Pan
3 Snaredrum & Flairdrum
4 Xylophone
5 Steel Tongue Drums
6 Vibraphone
Wow.. This is just wonderful I'm not really into instruments but this is really cool, keep up the good work.
1:39 Now that was beautiful.
This is so calming and I love it
Oooooh! These are so wonderful to hear!
And you were in the correct key for Jupiter! (I performed it in October)
1:37 AHH ITS THE SONG THAT PLAYS IN DANDYS WORLD
Debussy is from the impressionist period, but I love your work, keep it up!
1:01 how tf do you play that fast I wouldn't be able to even if I practiced for a month
Edit: I have been playing percussion since I was 4 years old (9 years now) and you are a big inspiration
Imagine playing the snare part of the Bolero one-handed throughout the full piece
