@@faclonx6275 I'm never letting a brass player get lost in the woodwind sea... Being a horn is a like spiritual connection btwn all french horn players ever... Woodwinds would never understand
I am genuinely surprised that Keith didn't make a single tromBONER joke in the entire video. Guess it shows how seriously passionate about music he is.
I think it was also so this video was a little more kid friendly? It seemed a little more targeted towards students learning music than usual. Especially towards the end
Just wanted to clarify I meant no hate coming from this. I'm sure Becky is used to it with all the instruments Kieth plays plus she has a life outside the try guys
As a band teacher, Keith PLEASE make this a series, it was so much fun! Learn all the instruments! I will definitely be showing my kids this video to inspire them!
Keith learns all the instruments is something I would get behind 110%. Plenty of other TH-camrs to collab with as well too (EMC productions for Drums/percussion, Daniel Thrasher or Kyle Landry for Piano/Keyboard, and those are just from my subscriptions !)
Bro as a trombonist, I’m shocked at how quick he got vibrato- and all those notes learned. Essential elements is a different breed. I recommend using the trigger, life is much much easier with it. I’m impressed!
Keith may have only gotten to middle schooler trombonist, but he was 100% that middle schooler trombonist who everyone knew was the best and was going to keep playing the trombone forever.
We had a saxophone who was like that. I live in a very small and shitty town where our school "band" consists of about 35 kids at max and 4 at minimum none of which wanna be there, and this kid came from California with at least half his life dedicated to instruments. He quit our band a year after he joined and apparently he does gigs lol
You are an amazing person! You have such a warm and kind enthusiasm and seem so genuinely kind and positive. What Keith did was incredible, but I was admiring your gifts and skill as well. I’ve taught elementary music for over a decade, and was so impressed by your talents as a teacher. I hope you can make teaching your full time profession, in whatever capacity; you have a marvellous gift that would only benefit the children around you.
Dude can’t believe you got make a video with them. His chops really failed him a bit, my band teacher makes me play a couple of low notes so that blood comes back to my lips. I did not expect for him to play sooooooo sooooo good.
Everyone is saying how similar Keith and Chris look so similar, but can we just talk about how hard Keith worked on this? And how WELL he pulled it off? I have so much respect for brass players already, because the weight of the instrument would already be something I’d struggle with, let alone standing there for hours to practice. But now? It’s just increased tenfold. He went from knowing nothing to being able to serenade us with a beautiful piece in 30 days, which just goes to show that NOTHING is stopping you from achieving your own personal goals. If you wanna learn how to play the guitar, do it! If you wanna learn how to speak Spanish, do it! Learning is how we all come together as people, and the end result is magical ❤️
Knowing nothing? He was a horn player all through university. Switching between brass instruments is like switching between guitar and bass; the basics and feel are nearly identical
@@andreigolovik3047 Actually at the beginning of the video he expressed that this is the only bass instrument he’s struggled with because it’s differed compared to what he’s played, and it’s why he chose it, because he knew it wouldn’t be easy. It’s not nearly identical, as I’m sure a trombone player wouldn’t be able to just pick up and play a French horn solo in a blink of an eye. Also, please remember it took him 30 days of practice to be able to do what he did, and i really doubt he only practiced for thirty minutes a day. He put in a lot of effort and time to get where he was at the end of the video, so no, it’s not easy. He started from knowing nothing about that specific instrument, and even stated that, and grew to be able to play a beautiful piece in thirty days, and that is a very daunting task. Edit; at 0:59 he even states “I have no idea how to play that thing, it’s got no valves”
fun fact, the trombone actually is one of the *lighter* brass instruments since it's essentially just one big hollow tube. Instruments like the tuba or baritone tend to be heavier bc a) there's more pipe to them and b) the valves (in my experience) tend to add on extra weight. also if you're lazy (although it's poor posture to do so and it's bad for your airflow if you're practicing big sound) you can sort of cross your legs and rest the bell on your knee when practicing to improve endurance
As a music education major who plays trombone: my entire degree path is focused on finding ways to explain this stuff without sounding vaguely sexual and the truth is it cannot be done ✅
Music stands are the WORST. Like- who invented them and why are they not sturdy??? At that point, just memorize the music. A music stand puts you through so much more PAIN
@@i_dont_really_know_anymore In over 40 years of playing piano, I have never managed to memorise a single piece. I can't play by ear either, so if I don't have sheet music in front of me, I'm basically back to beginner status.
@@stitchgroover and that's my argument for why sheet music reading isn't as great as it's cracked up to be. I think a truly great musician should be able to read music and play without it. (Not that I have the right to judge, between not having the opportunities and my impatience, the only musicality I have is my voice, so honestly anyone who can play an instrument has done a good job.)
@@stitchgroover I can’t blame you I guess. I have awful memory. In fact, as time goes on and as you start to play harder pieces, it starts to become so much harder to memorize. Especially with 40 years of piano playing and not being able to memorize. But once you can FORCE yourself to memorize, you start to get the hang of it!
As a musician, him learning this in a month is really impressive. His tone, range, and pitch was incredible for only 30 days. The vibrato as well blew me away. I too play the trombone. Not my primary instrument, but a beautiful one to play nevertheless. Bravo!
His starting point was from playing french horn already but it is incredibly impressive nonetheless, just some of the things he knows from already playing brass. Still wouldn’t be easy at all but it’d feel impossible doing it in 30 days but having had no experience with any brass instruments
I don't play and instrument but that's because I didn't have the resolve Keith does, so it's definitely impressive! Albeit, Keith can play other instruments unlike me...
keith playing the trombone almost perfectly after only 30 days is amazing hes literally better than the only 2 trombonists in my highschool band who have been playing for months to years
@@roguelites5225 Well that explains it. Trombone is so much easier than horn when it comes to embouchure (not so much picking and moving to notes in multiple positions).
I think this is what the Try Guys are all about! Trying to do something, learning and showing progress. I'm very proud of Keith admitting that the first piece was too ambitious for now, but didn't give up entirely. He did so well!
@@lost_in_here248 I think so, but he switched to a degree in “Theatre and Dance” if I recall. I only remember what degree he does have thanks to their ballet video from 4 years ago 🤣
You found the best person in the world to teach and support your trombone journey. Great job Keith. @classicaltrombone, stop stealing French horn players.
I thought this was going to be a typical humorous try guys video but this was a lovely change of pace. I love that it was taken seriously mad respect to Keith. I went to school for music so it’s nice to see music being appreciated. Keith did WAY better than the average high schooler 😧
Hi, Keith! We would have been happy to be in your video at Bertrand's Music if you had said what you were doing! We were being super cautious about masking and capacity in our tiny store when you came in! Congratulations on achieving your goal--you are an inspiration!
I think it’s adorable that Keith and Hughie seemed so nervous for the recital considering they are both professional musicians. It reminded me of my recitals, except I didn’t like doing them and wasn’t as good.
Is there any update as to the progress on this series? I'm sure many band kids are dying to see Keith trying to learn their instruments. If this continued, it would get lots of love from the music community.
The moment Keith mentioned the “Essential Elements” book my brain whipped me back to being in my high school orchestra and the music room being littered with these books.
I remember it too when I studied jazz as an elective but fuck I was so horrible in that class & I’m so thankful they had like 2-3 other clarinetists who were incredibly skilled and I just played really quietly except for like two or three songs that I actually knew 😂 luckily I was fine when we did theory and when we did improv which was mainly what we were graded on but I felt so fkn inadequate then lol aside from one girl, everyone else in my class were each in multiple bands/orchestras and i never showed up lol and then her and I would spend time together but then she started skipping that class so I was left to be shite on my own 😩
There's this expectation that any content Keith puts out has to be funny but this is straight up beautiful... the dedication, the ambition, the effort and the emotion?? Aptly named beautiful Keith
Fully agreed...I think his former days in “show biz” outside of the internet show here, because the constant need for “perfection” is a very real thing for live performance artists.
As a 6 year Tubist in high school, I’m very impressed on how he did, his notes were on point and that goes on to show that he did a lot of progress throughout the 30 days
okay but literally his tone and pitch accuracy is so surprisingly good, and the vibrato on the sustained notes was even and not erratic…. He successfully played through phrases with genuinely decent dynamics. I am INCREDIBLY impressed
the Try Office members literally looked like they were all tearing up/very moved by Keith's recital & I have to say I was right there with them - you did fantastic Keith!!! now go ice your lips
I was so nervous for his recital but hearing that first phrase I was like OH MY GOD. he did so well, and if Keith can learn the trombone in 30 days, anything is possible.
As a flutist, I hope he tries the flute so bad and every woodwind instrument actually since those will probably be more challenging given that he already has brass instrument experience. I’m so impressed with this though and excited for the prospect of this being a new series for him!
If he needs percussion lessons I can help. Got a BA in it from a conservatory. While at school they had classes to teach you the other instruments (if you wanted to be a teacher). I wanted to take all of them but only got the winds class as an elective. I had a surprisingly hard time with clarinet but was ok with flute, sax, & surprisingly oboe & bassoon. The only way I got a noise out of the clarinet was if I did the double armbushure (I can’t spell) like the oboe instead of the normal single one.
Keith is the instruments as Eugene is to dance. I hope Keith keeps learning instruments to showcase. Also it might be fun to do a video where Keith try’s to teach instruments to the guys.
In case you don't understand: This was really, really good! The dynamics, the vibrato, the overall control and the colour of your notes .... It was sooo good!
Right? I was so surprised. I didn't know what to expect but vibrato was not one of them, and neither were those subtle dynamics. That was _really_ good for a piece he crammed in a few days.
I sang serenade through the leaves (actually Schubert's Schwanengesang) for my final jury in college and it made me tear up. The piece's lyrics are so beautiful sung in German
As a musician this is damn impressive. As a violinist I don't think I could learn cello this this good in 30 days (which might be apples and oranges to compare but still). Keith you have astounding musicality and expression in your playing. I wasn't familiar with your musical background at all until now, but bravooooo another reason to stan Keith
i was a cellist and switched to viola (freshman year of high school) and didn’t make as much progress as he did here in 3 months of viola. this was crazy 🤯
i'm an oboist and i had to learn mellophone (marching french horn) so i could do marching band and i agree that it's really impressive! learning a new instrument is HARD. i think it definitely helped a lot that he already knew a brass instrument but i was still really surprised at how well he played!
@@eliaspratt8690 I play viola! *Learning double bass* "Eh not insanely difficult" *Learning cello* "So wait.. I like sit down now?" *Confused leg straddling* "how come my elbow is backwards?" *Bear noises* They may all look more or less the same but I swear 😅 learning new string instruments is just.. ah. Even with violin, like.. I'm not allowed to play with my pinky because I always over reach as a violist 🤣 Keith is a legend.
I know. I’ve been playing violin for three years myself and I don’t know if it’s because I’m learning through a public school curriculum or if I’m just bad, but I can barely do vibrato.
@@adeviantsponge7328 No you're not bad, you're learning! I didn't start learning vibrato for a few years myself and it took another few years to perfect, and I was in private lessons. It will come if you persist, I promise! Sometimes it can be harder or take longer to hone technique in group settings. Private lessons, if you can afford it, can really give that one on one coaching, but if you keep trying and practicing regardless, you'll get there, I promise. It's worth it. Best of luck. ❤
I hope Keith knows how inspirational he is to young kids in band and theater. Arts programs are always less popular than athletics and scholarly programs in academics, so they often get looked over and sometimes completely crumble all together. Keith showing his love for music like this just makes me really hopeful for the younger people watching 💖
Rather than less popular I think it's important to consider what's needed to get started. Outside of a school setting, athletics are often cheap to get involved with (though some require more equipment than others), whereas with music there's the cost of the instrument and for most guidance is needed to fix mistakes and beginner tips before they become bad habits.
I never had to purchase an instrument while in band. Never spent a single cent. I was very, very lucky that my school had the funding to buy their own instruments. This isn't the case everywhere, obviously, which is why it's important to fund these programs just as much as others.
It's not so much having to purchase things for school. My point was that interest often starts outside of school. If you want to continue after school you'll need to purchase it. If you have a strong interest you're probably considering it before the opportunity arises in school. Sports are something that's often inclusive or easy to start. Music can have harder point of entries. Of course I do have a problem with how some schools are obsessed with sports scholarships but that's a different problem.
@@wombat4583 The one thing to consider though is that the majority of HS and younger athletes don't continue sports beyond HS either. There is certainly a failing with music education to help equip kids to become lifelong musicians but that is not unique to the arts. Our society definitely idolizes sports in ways that we don't see in other areas. Sports also do cost a ton of money, especially if you want to get good at it (just like anything). But from a purely school-education standpoint, there is a similar cost between sports and arts for the casual learner. You are definitely right that interests start outside of school though. Most artistic friends I know were supported in that and encouraged by family members, same with sports students. Overall, what I'd like to see more of is holistic education and experiences with young people; knowing they can play sports while also engage in arts (and that BOTH can continue after formal schooling).
I’m so freakin’ pissed off that this doesn’t have a million more views. This was impressive. People don’t understand the discipline it takes to stick with an instrument. They just want the instant gratification of likes, favorites, and followers… great performance Keith
As a music/band teacher(and trombonist), this legitimately warms my heart and I hope inspires people to learn something new and realize the reward of hard work and practice over time! Great job Keith! 👏 Hope you keep practicing and that in the future I see a giant recital of you playing all the instruments!
No lie, I started tearing up during the performance. Performing is already such a vulnerable thing, but to have shared his music with us after only spending a month with it, I can't even begin to fathom. And he did SUCH A GREAT JOB! Very moving video, thank you
As a violinist, who played this piece on the violin, I am very impressed. The mistakes are minor. It was well played. I swear, he did that in fricking 30 days...
“I realize I’m starting to sound real sexual with what I’m saying” You never realize how dirty the terminology for learning an instrument is until you’re an adult. As a string musician I can think of several: our instruments have F-holes, our instruments have G-strings, we make different notes by doing different fingerings, and I’m sure there are others. 😂
I just remembered keith saying in a podcast ep that he gets sad when he's not mentioned in videos and it made my heart sad because keith - you are my favorite try guy. When I saw this video I knew it would be good, but it blew me away. I loved this so much and your performance was absolutely amazing! ps i'm going to comment more often how great keith is
Seriously, same, this video was amazing! And Keith is great. I really love his energy and his voice, whether he's calm or hyped up, he always gives off pleasant vibes
He said he wants to learn every instrument from a high school band, I wanna see him learn clarinet and rage over the reed then have to learn sax and rage over having to forget everything about clarinet
just trying to get the reed to a pliable form and then break it trying to put the holder on 5 minutes before a concert. My band director stressed having 3 or 4 reeds started "just in case".
As a person who has been playing trombone for about 4-5 years, Keith’s first impression of playing the trombone is like how everyone else’s thoughts about how I play it lol
Keith tries the most. I feel like the other three try guys don't if they think they won't be good at it or just aren't seriously interested in something as a hobby...they're more likely to just work the jokey angle and not truly try. Keith makes a lot of jokes, but he also always actually tries his best. It's so nice to see when something great comes out of it, like this!
While u r definitely entitled to ur own opinion, I think they all work hard to put our their best work and try as hard as they can in vids. Eugene is an incredible dancer, athlete, and director so he works hard on vids related to that. Ned always goes the extra mile (he isn't called full throttle fulmer for no reason). He also does most of the financial stuff for the try guys. Zach struggles with athletics bcus of his autoimmune disease but he always tries his hardest anyways. He also eats a lot of spice and dairy for vids even tho it causes him pain. While I agree keith is extremely talented, u don't have to put down the other guys to complement him
@@maggieann5569 Here to help boost the positivity! We appreciate each guy for their own skills. While it's fine to have a "favorite" there's no need to put the others down
Tbh I think we never give Keith enough credit for his musical talents. One of the things I loved about the movie was getting to see more of his process. So this video is a huge treat for me. Keith is so cool
This is a jokey thing but I'm honestly always impressed by his closing songs at the end of the tripod. Idk if you watch it or not but if not it's a quick little improv song that summarizes what they talked about and they're actually pretty good.
Through this video I really actually felt my soul go back in time to learning choir in high school and how much joy it brought me. I didn't expect to be so moved by this but I really am deeply moved. Well done, Keith. 💖
This video is great because it shows Keith trying something that he is familiar with but still learning, and we can actually see him in his element. Not to mention the performance was lovely to listen to. Way to go Keith!!! YOU DID AMAZING!!!
I'll agree when I see him play the flute. That shits hard when your lips are used to playing brass instruments! Also I just want this to be a whole series
I am stunned! I played the trombone throughout Middleschool (braces finally ended my "career") and I could not manage in 2 years what Keith accomplished in 30 days. And what tone! Bravo! I was pretty good with the spit valve however.
I like how Zach is the only other Try Guy to show up. Like I imagine just off-camera, there's chairs marked off for Ned and Eugene that are just sitting there empty and that's a really funny image to me
Even more importantly than the technical feat, he played very musically and sensitively, and really committed to beautiful phrasing and dynamic contrast. That’s the stuff that really matters in a performance! Bravo Keith!
You can tell he's a musician just by how he knows how to put feeling into it. Even technical brilliance can't teach how to emote through your instrument - you have to learn how to put that stank on it.
Keith's progress is extremely impressive for such a sort time period! You can definitely see the benefit of his pretty extensive background in French horn--his understanding of brass instruments and musical performance already gets him a leg up. But he's surprisingly in-tune for his first time playing a slide instrument and has a great vibrato
As a high school trombone player, I’m surprised he has not tried to play the USSR anthem or make race car sounds like a true high schooler. Trombones are weird like that.
I guess it's a subconscious thing, Keith would have gone through all those trombone or brass playing tutorials, and when he saw someone similar to him, he would linger a bit longer by then.
Tbh not a single high school trombonist I know could've played that first piece that he gave you. You had beautiful tone AND a vibrato??? Better than 95% of high school trombones lol
As the first chair trombone at my school, I agree. I don't think I would have been able to play it. Maybe with enough time but it wouldn't be easy at all and probably not the best quality. His tone tho is amazing. Better then mine.
Yeah. That's the type of song you have to commit to over time already being at high-school level, not beginner like our friend Keith. I'd struggle playing that for awhile even as a second chair trombone at my highschool.
There's nothing more uplifting than watching a passionate individual try, fail, try, and succeed at something they are new to. Really helps those of us with beginners anxiety.
as a trombone player it filled my heart when he said "ive always wanted to play the trombone. trombone is the coolest brass. its so dope." also he started out on an f trigger trombone. most beginners start on tenor.
It's all about the breath support. If he's blowing from his throat and tensing it up, he'll definitely turn red in 15 minutes. If he's breathing from his stomach, maybe not.
As a trombonist who is in highschool and has been playing for 5 years, I can say that the beginning of the video is accurate to what it is like to first play trombone
I was going to make a joke about how betrayed I felt as a French Hornist, but I'm so proud of you. You put so much work into learning this instrument, and I hope my band students can learn something from you. You sounded absolutely beautiful! Great job
12-year full-time professional trombonist here: Really great work, you exceeded expectations! Congratulations! I think this video will inspire a lot of people to pick up an instrument and give music a go. Its amazing what can be acheived with a little bit of dedication, a good teacher and regular practice. I thought it was a very musical performance, and I hope you continue with music and the trombone into the future.
We need this to be a series. I WANT MORE!!! This totally inspired me to play the flute again. I played for 5 years. And then my last year of high school someone stole my flute. I kinda just gave up after that. But I’ll be buying a new one this week. This video made me realize how much I miss it. Now I’m inspired. Maybe I’ll pick up another instrument too who knows. Thank you Keith!!!!!
As a trombonist, I appreciate this so much, lol. Also his starting tone was so good and I love his dedication to learning this. And yeah, it’s as fun to play as Keith makes it look 😂
I don't know about Virtuoso, but knowing many instruments is a very impressive skill. Virtuosos are the best in what they do, you master an instrument and then go on to be a virtuoso.
as a former high school trombone player who learned from the same methods book and also suffered through learning David and never ever getting that high Bb, this truly warmed my heart and might be my new favorite try guys vid. Keith should be SUPER proud of himself and he might've inspired me to pick up my trombone after 4 years!! Bravo
Keith, you are an inspiration for every, and all bands in school right now in these Try Guy-ing times! I play trumpet, but in spirit of your efforts, I thought why not try it too? My trumpet range increased so much now! Thanks for the inspiration Keith!

At first I was like “Why isn’t Becky there?” Then I realized she’s had to live it for 30 days
Plus, I saw her to reflection off of the trombone in the beginning, so I think she was recording him in most shots! 😄
Cold
They probably recorded during the day, so if she had to work.....
Just wanted to clarify I meant no hate coming from this. I'm sure Becky is used to it with all the instruments Kieth plays plus she has a life outside the try guys

fun fact, the trombone actually is one of the *lighter* brass instruments since it's essentially just one big hollow tube. Instruments like the tuba or baritone tend to be heavier bc a) there's more pipe to them and b) the valves (in my experience) tend to add on extra weight. also if you're lazy (although it's poor posture to do so and it's bad for your airflow if you're practicing big sound) you can sort of cross your legs and rest the bell on your knee when practicing to improve endurance
the fact that 90% of keith’s notes were in tune after only playing for 30 days is incredible
Dude plays better then me which fun fact dont know key signatures
Fun fact I can’t read notes. Just never grasped anything past Bb.
i have great news i have learnt the key signature
@@jeraldtanthetown7765 epic!
He knew how to play before he started he just wants clout
As a music education major who plays trombone: my entire degree path is focused on finding ways to explain this stuff without sounding vaguely sexual and the truth is it cannot be done ✅
One could say it hardly works without the parallels.
As a former trombone player I can’t disagree with you 😂😂
What's so sexual about being a tromboner?
@@EightPieceBox 🤣🤣🤣
Haah!
"i just got a music stand!"
*sheet music starts falling*
if this isn't the most relatable thing as a musician then what is
Music stands are the WORST. Like- who invented them and why are they not sturdy??? At that point, just memorize the music. A music stand puts you through so much more PAIN
@@i_dont_really_know_anymore In over 40 years of playing piano, I have never managed to memorise a single piece. I can't play by ear either, so if I don't have sheet music in front of me, I'm basically back to beginner status.
every single time when i was in choir. every single one of them.
@@stitchgroover and that's my argument for why sheet music reading isn't as great as it's cracked up to be. I think a truly great musician should be able to read music and play without it. (Not that I have the right to judge, between not having the opportunities and my impatience, the only musicality I have is my voice, so honestly anyone who can play an instrument has done a good job.)
@@stitchgroover I can’t blame you I guess. I have awful memory. In fact, as time goes on and as you start to play harder pieces, it starts to become so much harder to memorize. Especially with 40 years of piano playing and not being able to memorize. But once you can FORCE yourself to memorize, you start to get the hang of it!
As a musician, him learning this in a month is really impressive. His tone, range, and pitch was incredible for only 30 days. The vibrato as well blew me away. I too play the trombone. Not my primary instrument, but a beautiful one to play nevertheless. Bravo!
His starting point was from playing french horn already but it is incredibly impressive nonetheless, just some of the things he knows from already playing brass. Still wouldn’t be easy at all but it’d feel impossible doing it in 30 days but having had no experience with any brass instruments
Let not forget he majored in french horn in college!
@@TheMscandy123 ohh I had no idea, that’s awesome! wish more people studied music :)
Yes agreed. His tone was amazing
learning a brass instrument before the trombone helped a lot so
im back here after twosetviolin reacted to this video!! keith should definitely try violin in 30 days with twosetviolin 😂
same 😚🤚
YESSSSSSSS
Same
Wait hold up which video was it??
@@mellohomie1237 "Professional Musicians Rate TH-camrs’ Instrument Skills" 4:53 seconds into the video!

@@tracy7518 YEAH, that's honestly atrocious
"I'm a proud papa right now." Keith truly is daddy's favorite.
Underrated comment award goes to you. 😂😂😂
People who don't play instruments don't understand how hard this is to accomplish. Great job Keith!
I don't play and instrument but that's because I didn't have the resolve Keith does, so it's definitely impressive! Albeit, Keith can play other instruments unlike me...
keith playing the trombone almost perfectly after only 30 days is amazing hes literally better than the only 2 trombonists in my highschool band who have been playing for months to years
He used to play French horn at a near professional level so it’s not surprising he picked it up so quickly still very impressive
they're high schoolers with no prior experience and probably unmotivated and unchallenged to get better at their instrument
@@roguelites5225 Well that explains it. Trombone is so much easier than horn when it comes to embouchure (not so much picking and moving to notes in multiple positions).
I think this is what the Try Guys are all about! Trying to do something, learning and showing progress. I'm very proud of Keith admitting that the first piece was too ambitious for now, but didn't give up entirely. He did so well!
I agree! They should make more of this, honestly.
@@elevensnotebook agreed! Even if they didnt post as much I'd honestly prefer this kind of stuff with less frequent posting...
I forgot Keith plays French horn and was like how’s this boy gonna learn not only trombone but music in 30 days lmao
Didn't he major in French horn in college? 😅
@@lost_in_here248 I think so, but he switched to a degree in “Theatre and Dance” if I recall. I only remember what degree he does have thanks to their ballet video from 4 years ago 🤣
@@jenniferhiemstra5228 he lost his scholarship for it too :(
@@ahhh4117 I love that try guys fans are so knowledgeable about our boys... We're so attentive
@@lost_in_here248 A more difficult instrument in my view. Brass player here…🤷🏽♀️🖐🏾 He just needed to warm up that embouchure.
You found the best person in the world to teach and support your trombone journey. Great job Keith. @classicaltrombone, stop stealing French horn players.
fr
I feel like this is the comment to tell the fact that used to play French horn and now I play trombone
I have not fallen to the dark side… yet
They almost converted me too! 📯
I’m staying loyal here. But…. Imma dabble with percussion a bit
I thought this was going to be a typical humorous try guys video but this was a lovely change of pace. I love that it was taken seriously mad respect to Keith. I went to school for music so it’s nice to see music being appreciated. Keith did WAY better than the average high schooler 😧
keith majored in french horn performance in college i think
Keith's content is either food chaos or wholesome/heartwarming and there is no in-between. We stan.
That's why he's my favorite :')
No one:
Keith: Having the goal to become a one man high school band
Like Burt from Mary Poppins
I love how everyone dressed up for Keith's recital.
Me too
Just like high school. Gotta play the part lol
except zach who wore his “birks”
You can tell he's well trained in brass. Especially when he double tounges on day 8 lol.
I desperately want this to become a series for Keith because the music nerd in me LOVED THIS.
Sameeeee!!!! I need this to become a thing now
I want to see him try to learn something not brass. I played flute 6-12th and could never even make a noise on brass 😂
I would love to see him play the clarinet! The descriptions of embochure for trombone sounds similar ☺️ (and maybe also flute!?)
Omg SAME! Orch dork here and I am LIVING
Guysssss Bassoon though!
Or taiko drums!
Harp!
Hi, Keith! We would have been happy to be in your video at Bertrand's Music if you had said what you were doing! We were being super cautious about masking and capacity in our tiny store when you came in! Congratulations on achieving your goal--you are an inspiration!
this is so sweet, i hope he sees this!
KEITH please go back and do a sequel at the store!
We must make this something the guys see!
Yes please!! Keep this series up and do a sequel at the store!
That was nice of you. Funny how you found the video. :)
Ok, can we talk about how good Keith's dynamic control was, especially at the end of the piece.
Yes! I was impressed, I don't know how directly that carries over from the horn. His phrasing is lovely too.
I like how even a solo trombone piece starts with 37 bar rest :-D
I feel like as a musician, injuries or malpractice when playing is rarely talked about, so I found it refreshing when Keith took a break.
Agreed
Same.
Tendonitis in flute/piccolo players is TOO REAL!!!
@@kebert2thumbsup same with violinists 😩
@@reaganb6013 oofff. NOT FUN!!! I remember my section leader a had brace for her tendonitis. My cousin too.
I think it’s adorable that Keith and Hughie seemed so nervous for the recital considering they are both professional musicians. It reminded me of my recitals, except I didn’t like doing them and wasn’t as good.
So true, but when you play for your friends it just feels different 😄
Keith is the band kid representation I didn’t know I needed
I upload photo editing tutorials, come if you want to but It's totally fine if you don't ❤!!!
Fr
Yessa haha
Seriously! I miss being in band so much!!!
Is there any update as to the progress on this series? I'm sure many band kids are dying to see Keith trying to learn their instruments. If this continued, it would get lots of love from the music community.
The moment Keith mentioned the “Essential Elements” book my brain whipped me back to being in my high school orchestra and the music room being littered with these books.
I remember it too when I studied jazz as an elective but fuck I was so horrible in that class & I’m so thankful they had like 2-3 other clarinetists who were incredibly skilled and I just played really quietly except for like two or three songs that I actually knew 😂 luckily I was fine when we did theory and when we did improv which was mainly what we were graded on but I felt so fkn inadequate then lol aside from one girl, everyone else in my class were each in multiple bands/orchestras and i never showed up lol and then her and I would spend time together but then she started skipping that class so I was left to be shite on my own 😩
I still after 5 years on playing the clarinet look at the book for fingerings it is a life saver
High school…?
You started in high school?!??
That book has caused years of anguish. Despite the single year I used it
This should be a new series! Each try guy should learn something in 30 days
Ned had his 6 pack vid
totally agree... hmmm a foreign language??! ballroom dancing??? lol
There's this expectation that any content Keith puts out has to be funny but this is straight up beautiful... the dedication, the ambition, the effort and the emotion?? Aptly named beautiful Keith
Fully agreed...I think his former days in “show biz” outside of the internet show here, because the constant need for “perfection” is a very real thing for live performance artists.
I legit started to tear up a bit!
As a 6 year Tubist in high school, I’m very impressed on how he did, his notes were on point and that goes on to show that he did a lot of progress throughout the 30 days
I read that as “6 year old tubist” and thought, how does a 6 year old have enough air support
@@ColonialForbin lol
@@ColonialForbin oh my god same here.
okay but literally his tone and pitch accuracy is so surprisingly good, and the vibrato on the sustained notes was even and not erratic…. He successfully played through phrases with genuinely decent dynamics. I am INCREDIBLY impressed
Same, that was amazing!!
Well he did go to college on a french horn scholarship so the basics are there. But of course for 30 days its impressive hehe
His dynamics impressed me the most!
A grown man putting on a recital for his friends it the most wholesome thing I’ve ever seen🥲 I’m not crying, Zach and Miles are🥲🥲🥲
the Try Office members literally looked like they were all tearing up/very moved by Keith's recital & I have to say I was right there with them - you did fantastic Keith!!! now go ice your lips
I upload photo editing tutorials, come if you want to but It's totally fine if you don't ❤!!!
I was so nervous for his recital but hearing that first phrase I was like OH MY GOD. he did so well, and if Keith can learn the trombone in 30 days, anything is possible.
As a trombonist I would just like to say that I am highly offended that the captions called Keith playing the trombone “trumpet noises”
Like when people call the clarinet a flute 😂
@@sarahleo1563 yeah phff a clarinet is more like a straight saxaphone
@@troebeliewoep watch your mouth 😝
All brass instruments are just progressively bigger trumpets.
@@troebeliewoep it literally is though.
A soprano sax looks like a clarinet, but metal and gold colored xD
As a flutist, I hope he tries the flute so bad and every woodwind instrument actually since those will probably be more challenging given that he already has brass instrument experience. I’m so impressed with this though and excited for the prospect of this being a new series for him!
As an oboist, horn was the easiest brass instrument for me.
Yesssss!! PLEASE TRY WOODWINDS NEXT!
Flute is hard. Kudos to you ~
If he needs percussion lessons I can help. Got a BA in it from a conservatory.
While at school they had classes to teach you the other instruments (if you wanted to be a teacher). I wanted to take all of them but only got the winds class as an elective. I had a surprisingly hard time with clarinet but was ok with flute, sax, & surprisingly oboe & bassoon. The only way I got a noise out of the clarinet was if I did the double armbushure (I can’t spell) like the oboe instead of the normal single one.
I used to play flute and Keith should try woodwinds lol
Keith: Plays multiple instruments, has own comedy group, runs a successful TH-cam channel, has a sauce line
*Bruh he’s so accomplished*-
And he can sing!
@@Isalarson oh yeah you're right!
AND LOVELY WIFE!!
Can we take a moment to admire Keith's unless hustle?
Keith is the instruments as Eugene is to dance. I hope Keith keeps learning instruments to showcase. Also it might be fun to do a video where Keith try’s to teach instruments to the guys.
"Try Guys git gud at recorders" anyone?
i misread and thought the title was "Keith learns trampoline in 30 days" and was hyped for that.
i would watch that
I want that
he really should learn it though.
Next time, I hope!
This needs to happen
In case you don't understand: This was really, really good! The dynamics, the vibrato, the overall control and the colour of your notes .... It was sooo good!
Exactly! He really did a good job for only doing this in 30 days. Having prior brass experience definitely helped though.
I cried real tears. 😭 Music is an amazing thing😇
@@DrDingsGaster Absolutely. I went the opposite direction from bone to horn, and having experience made it wayyyy more manageable
Right? I was so surprised. I didn't know what to expect but vibrato was not one of them, and neither were those subtle dynamics. That was _really_ good for a piece he crammed in a few days.
Yes!! The phrasing and the vibrato really made the piece come to life, not to mention how beautiful the piece is to begin with!
Tell me why I got SO NERVOUS for him for this recital with literally no stakes 😂But that was seriously so impressive.
I sang serenade through the leaves (actually Schubert's Schwanengesang) for my final jury in college and it made me tear up. The piece's lyrics are so beautiful sung in German
As a musician this is damn impressive. As a violinist I don't think I could learn cello this this good in 30 days (which might be apples and oranges to compare but still). Keith you have astounding musicality and expression in your playing. I wasn't familiar with your musical background at all until now, but bravooooo another reason to stan Keith
i was a cellist and switched to viola (freshman year of high school) and didn’t make as much progress as he did here in 3 months of viola. this was crazy 🤯
i'm an oboist and i had to learn mellophone (marching french horn) so i could do marching band and i agree that it's really impressive! learning a new instrument is HARD.
i think it definitely helped a lot that he already knew a brass instrument but i was still really surprised at how well he played!
@@eliaspratt8690 I play viola!
*Learning double bass* "Eh not insanely difficult"
*Learning cello* "So wait.. I like sit down now?" *Confused leg straddling* "how come my elbow is backwards?" *Bear noises*
They may all look more or less the same but I swear 😅 learning new string instruments is just.. ah. Even with violin, like.. I'm not allowed to play with my pinky because I always over reach as a violist 🤣
Keith is a legend.
I know. I’ve been playing violin for three years myself and I don’t know if it’s because I’m learning through a public school curriculum or if I’m just bad, but I can barely do vibrato.
@@adeviantsponge7328 No you're not bad, you're learning! I didn't start learning vibrato for a few years myself and it took another few years to perfect, and I was in private lessons. It will come if you persist, I promise! Sometimes it can be harder or take longer to hone technique in group settings. Private lessons, if you can afford it, can really give that one on one coaching, but if you keep trying and practicing regardless, you'll get there, I promise. It's worth it. Best of luck. ❤
I'd love to see every try guy do their independent "try" 's this was somewhat inspiring, Keith did amazing
I am so proud of Keith. He really outdid himself, yet again. This guy never stops to amaze me. Bravo Keith, Bravo!
This video and the recital were WAY more wholesome than I thought it was gonna be. It seemed sincere and passionate. Way to go!
"I was like 95% sure this was a prank" I feel like that sums up Miles' energy.
I hope Keith knows how inspirational he is to young kids in band and theater. Arts programs are always less popular than athletics and scholarly programs in academics, so they often get looked over and sometimes completely crumble all together.
Keith showing his love for music like this just makes me really hopeful for the younger people watching 💖
Rather than less popular I think it's important to consider what's needed to get started. Outside of a school setting, athletics are often cheap to get involved with (though some require more equipment than others), whereas with music there's the cost of the instrument and for most guidance is needed to fix mistakes and beginner tips before they become bad habits.
I never had to purchase an instrument while in band. Never spent a single cent. I was very, very lucky that my school had the funding to buy their own instruments. This isn't the case everywhere, obviously, which is why it's important to fund these programs just as much as others.
It's not so much having to purchase things for school. My point was that interest often starts outside of school. If you want to continue after school you'll need to purchase it. If you have a strong interest you're probably considering it before the opportunity arises in school. Sports are something that's often inclusive or easy to start. Music can have harder point of entries. Of course I do have a problem with how some schools are obsessed with sports scholarships but that's a different problem.
@@wombat4583 The one thing to consider though is that the majority of HS and younger athletes don't continue sports beyond HS either. There is certainly a failing with music education to help equip kids to become lifelong musicians but that is not unique to the arts. Our society definitely idolizes sports in ways that we don't see in other areas. Sports also do cost a ton of money, especially if you want to get good at it (just like anything). But from a purely school-education standpoint, there is a similar cost between sports and arts for the casual learner.
You are definitely right that interests start outside of school though. Most artistic friends I know were supported in that and encouraged by family members, same with sports students. Overall, what I'd like to see more of is holistic education and experiences with young people; knowing they can play sports while also engage in arts (and that BOTH can continue after formal schooling).
I’m so freakin’ pissed off that this doesn’t have a million more views. This was impressive. People don’t understand the discipline it takes to stick with an instrument. They just want the instant gratification of likes, favorites, and followers… great performance Keith
IKR!
As comedic as it is to see these guys fail, it is such a good feeling to see them succeed at something legitimately challenging.
Why does everyone at the recital look like a proud dad at Keith
Because he's daddy's favorite and we're all daddy.
As a music/band teacher(and trombonist), this legitimately warms my heart and I hope inspires people to learn something new and realize the reward of hard work and practice over time!
Great job Keith! 👏 Hope you keep practicing and that in the future I see a giant recital of you playing all the instruments!
No lie, I started tearing up during the performance. Performing is already such a vulnerable thing, but to have shared his music with us after only spending a month with it, I can't even begin to fathom. And he did SUCH A GREAT JOB! Very moving video, thank you
As a violinist, who played this piece on the violin, I am very impressed. The mistakes are minor. It was well played. I swear, he did that in fricking 30 days...
“I realize I’m starting to sound real sexual with what I’m saying”
You never realize how dirty the terminology for learning an instrument is until you’re an adult. As a string musician I can think of several: our instruments have F-holes, our instruments have G-strings, we make different notes by doing different fingerings, and I’m sure there are others. 😂
I’m a string player as well but I hear flutists talking about “tounging” hahaha
@@user-bz5vn1kv5g flutists here, and yes we use the term "tonguing" a lot. And there's a technique called "flutter tongue" as well.
Don't forget about all the slurs!
@@dwianiindraningsri and you play it in A minor.
I've always laughed at the "fingering" charts.
I just remembered keith saying in a podcast ep that he gets sad when he's not mentioned in videos and it made my heart sad because keith - you are my favorite try guy. When I saw this video I knew it would be good, but it blew me away. I loved this so much and your performance was absolutely amazing!
ps i'm going to comment more often how great keith is
Seriously, same, this video was amazing! And Keith is great. I really love his energy and his voice, whether he's calm or hyped up, he always gives off pleasant vibes
He said he wants to learn every instrument from a high school band, I wanna see him learn clarinet and rage over the reed then have to learn sax and rage over having to forget everything about clarinet
just trying to get the reed to a pliable form and then break it trying to put the holder on 5 minutes before a concert. My band director stressed having 3 or 4 reeds started "just in case".
Omg yes. This so hard. And then pick up the flute and have his face say “NOPE” right in the middle of a chart. Doubler problems. Lol.
Lets not even get started with the double reeds.....
Not to mention him learning something like an oboe
@@Ph0ton As an oboist, I would love to see that
As a person who has been playing trombone for about 4-5 years, Keith’s first impression of playing the trombone is like how everyone else’s thoughts about how I play it lol
Keith tries the most. I feel like the other three try guys don't if they think they won't be good at it or just aren't seriously interested in something as a hobby...they're more likely to just work the jokey angle and not truly try. Keith makes a lot of jokes, but he also always actually tries his best. It's so nice to see when something great comes out of it, like this!
While u r definitely entitled to ur own opinion, I think they all work hard to put our their best work and try as hard as they can in vids. Eugene is an incredible dancer, athlete, and director so he works hard on vids related to that. Ned always goes the extra mile (he isn't called full throttle fulmer for no reason). He also does most of the financial stuff for the try guys. Zach struggles with athletics bcus of his autoimmune disease but he always tries his hardest anyways. He also eats a lot of spice and dairy for vids even tho it causes him pain. While I agree keith is extremely talented, u don't have to put down the other guys to complement him
@@maggieann5569 totally agree with u😌
@@maggieann5569 Here to help boost the positivity! We appreciate each guy for their own skills. While it's fine to have a "favorite" there's no need to put the others down
Tbh I think we never give Keith enough credit for his musical talents. One of the things I loved about the movie was getting to see more of his process. So this video is a huge treat for me. Keith is so cool
This is a jokey thing but I'm honestly always impressed by his closing songs at the end of the tripod. Idk if you watch it or not but if not it's a quick little improv song that summarizes what they talked about and they're actually pretty good.
As a trombonist, I feel compelled to say that Keith is completely right: the trombone is the coolest brass
As a trombone player, I second that
@@isabellemcgraw2781 Another trombonist, and I third that
Yes, as yet another trombonist who agrees- I do believe that this makes it a unanimous decision.
as a trumpet player i wholeheartedly agree
@@Harristor bahaha I was just about to say that
Through this video I really actually felt my soul go back in time to learning choir in high school and how much joy it brought me.
I didn't expect to be so moved by this but I really am deeply moved. Well done, Keith. 💖
This video is great because it shows Keith trying something that he is familiar with but still learning, and we can actually see him in his element. Not to mention the performance was lovely to listen to. Way to go Keith!!! YOU DID AMAZING!!!
That is absolutely crazy he was able to pull this off in 30 days, he really has a gift
French horn is really difficult to play well and gives him a good foundation to learn trombone!
It's official, Keith can literally do anything
I upload photo editing tutorials, come if you want to but It's totally fine if you don't ❤!!!
Keith is the new Eugene
I'll agree when I see him play the flute. That shits hard when your lips are used to playing brass instruments! Also I just want this to be a whole series
@@kathrynkleiner594 Have you ever tried oboe? Makes you think your lips are gonna fall off.
@@marcilk7534 I was thinking that too! I could only ever get a squeak out of a reed instrument lol.
I am stunned! I played the trombone throughout Middleschool (braces finally ended my "career") and I could not manage in 2 years what Keith accomplished in 30 days. And what tone! Bravo! I was pretty good with the spit valve however.
Can we just appreciate Myles wiping a tear and Zach sitting there like he’s Simon Cowell? This was adorable 😂
I like how Zach is the only other Try Guy to show up. Like I imagine just off-camera, there's chairs marked off for Ned and Eugene that are just sitting there empty and that's a really funny image to me
Even more importantly than the technical feat, he played very musically and sensitively, and really committed to beautiful phrasing and dynamic contrast. That’s the stuff that really matters in a performance! Bravo Keith!
You can tell he's a musician just by how he knows how to put feeling into it. Even technical brilliance can't teach how to emote through your instrument - you have to learn how to put that stank on it.
Keith's progress is extremely impressive for such a sort time period! You can definitely see the benefit of his pretty extensive background in French horn--his understanding of brass instruments and musical performance already gets him a leg up. But he's surprisingly in-tune for his first time playing a slide instrument and has a great vibrato
As a high school trombone player, I’m surprised he has not tried to play the USSR anthem or make race car sounds like a true high schooler. Trombones are weird like that.
…..
u sure you aren’t describing my high school band?
The USSR anthem was a particular hit during marching trips
Im sorry what 😂😂😂 imma be googling that
My friend and I do that all the time 😂
I knew this was an absolutely serious endeavor when zero tromboner jokes were made.
Bravo Mr. Habersberger!!
If the the trombone guy didn't have that long hair, him and Keith would kinda look a lot like each other
If everybody looked a bit more similar, everybody would look kinda similar
I was thinking the same thing through out the video
I guess it's a subconscious thing, Keith would have gone through all those trombone or brass playing tutorials, and when he saw someone similar to him, he would linger a bit longer by then.
Had to take a double take😂
Totally thought it was Keith and a wig teaching himself trombone 🤦♀️
@@dankaroor oh my god you’re right
Please make this part of the new era for the Try Guys!!!
I agree!
That's how most concertos or concerto-like pieces are to let the orchestra play a bit on their own.
I wasn’t expecting to be that nervous for him during the performance
I upload photo editing tutorials, come if you want to but It's totally fine if you don't ❤!!!
@@AreebProductions annoying.
Haha i like your name and profile!
Tbh not a single high school trombonist I know could've played that first piece that he gave you. You had beautiful tone AND a vibrato??? Better than 95% of high school trombones lol
As the first chair trombone at my school, I agree. I don't think I would have been able to play it. Maybe with enough time but it wouldn't be easy at all and probably not the best quality. His tone tho is amazing. Better then mine.
Yeah. That's the type of song you have to commit to over time already being at high-school level, not beginner like our friend Keith. I'd struggle playing that for awhile even as a second chair trombone at my highschool.
As a high school trombonist I’m still garbage
yeah i played that one in high school but i was still practicing it once i got to college, it's a hard piece
Yeah, I played that first piece for my college audition. 90% of high school players would struggle greatly with that piece
There's nothing more uplifting than watching a passionate individual try, fail, try, and succeed at something they are new to. Really helps those of us with beginners anxiety.
as a trombone player it filled my heart when he said "ive always wanted to play the trombone. trombone is the coolest brass. its so dope." also he started out on an f trigger trombone. most beginners start on tenor.
This video is beautiful. The way everyone looks at Keith with such pride and admiration. I’m so proud of you keith!!
zach wore socks and sandals with a suit and i think we should talk about it
Looks good 👌
Hot Ankles Kornfeld gotta live up to his name
“learn how to play every instrument in a high school band” someone get this man a tuba, i just KNOW he’ll be beet red after 15 minutes
As an oboist I feel the same way and I think other double reed players do as well 💀
@@mikiwilliams4133 i'm also an oboist 👀 definitely agree
It's all about the breath support. If he's blowing from his throat and tensing it up, he'll definitely turn red in 15 minutes. If he's breathing from his stomach, maybe not.
9th grade me be like:
Tubas easier for him since he already knows trumpet.
As a trombonist who is in highschool and has been playing for 5 years, I can say that the beginning of the video is accurate to what it is like to first play trombone
I was going to make a joke about how betrayed I felt as a French Hornist, but I'm so proud of you. You put so much work into learning this instrument, and I hope my band students can learn something from you. You sounded absolutely beautiful! Great job
12-year full-time professional trombonist here:
Really great work, you exceeded expectations! Congratulations! I think this video will inspire a lot of people to pick up an instrument and give music a go. Its amazing what can be acheived with a little bit of dedication, a good teacher and regular practice. I thought it was a very musical performance, and I hope you continue with music and the trombone into the future.
Chris is literally the most generous person, giving someone one of your old trombones to learn on, that is absolute trust!!
We need this to be a series. I WANT MORE!!! This totally inspired me to play the flute again. I played for 5 years. And then my last year of high school someone stole my flute. I kinda just gave up after that. But I’ll be buying a new one this week. This video made me realize how much I miss it. Now I’m inspired. Maybe I’ll pick up another instrument too who knows. Thank you Keith!!!!!
As a trombonist, I appreciate this so much, lol. Also his starting tone was so good and I love his dedication to learning this. And yeah, it’s as fun to play as Keith makes it look 😂
I never knew Keith was a MUSICAL VIRTUOSO IM SO IMPRESsED
ure heree
I don't know about Virtuoso, but knowing many instruments is a very impressive skill. Virtuosos are the best in what they do, you master an instrument and then go on to be a virtuoso.
He played French horn in highschool! Honestly, it never goes away. I play all woodwinds and play clarinet til this day (late 20s)
@@sulllivanofficial5478 he played it in college too. he said he did film & music in college (correct me if i am wrong)
@@lucasqin7120 yes! On a French horn scholarship! Almost forgot about that.
as a former high school trombone player who learned from the same methods book and also suffered through learning David and never ever getting that high Bb, this truly warmed my heart and might be my new favorite try guys vid. Keith should be SUPER proud of himself and he might've inspired me to pick up my trombone after 4 years!! Bravo
sure bud
Keith, you are an inspiration for every, and all bands in school right now in these Try Guy-ing times! I play trumpet, but in spirit of your efforts, I thought why not try it too? My trumpet range increased so much now! Thanks for the inspiration Keith!
