As a pianist - I love orchestra. It's just that chances you will see one decreases with every instrument added. Piano in quartet is already quite uncommon =p
As a bassist, i can confirm your statement. We do want to shove on people’s faces that we play the bass and that it is inherently the superior instrument.
I love the oboe for its unique and angelic sound! The way ravel uses them is amazing. I’m also into video game music in which I like how yoko Shimomura and nobuo uematsu incorporate them a lot in their music too
Three things I want to say to this: 1. I love videos like this!!! 2. That joke with triangle and Bernstein was very intelligent ;) 3. Why should I destroy your life as a flautist :( (weren't you a flautist?!?)
1 Thank you🙌🏻 2 😉 3 I mean, that the flautist would destroy your life, that's a meme I heard somewhere and I believe it to be true because a lot of flautists can be quite harsh, and yes I'm studying flute as well😂
As a clarinetist, this is completely true. I am a ginger, my middle school band director (a clarinetist) is also ginger, my high school band director (another clarinetist) is blonde, a clarinet professor I've been working with is ginger, my private instructor is Asian, one of my closer friends who also plays clarinet is Asian, the only other clarinet currently is my high school band is blonde, and the principle clarinet in my youth symphony is ginger. This video has really made me rethink band stereotypes.
Right! Plus harp is NOT an easy instrument to master. It's always funny to me when wind players shade harp lol. It's like seriously? I'm a wind player myself and used to date a harpist at conservatory, so I can tell you, those ladies (and a few men) are freaking super talented and dedicated
I'll take it. I mean, he's not far off about the jazz club thing, or Paris for that matter. A lot of black jazz saxophonists left America because they felt stifled and discriminated against. Oh, God. I just realized that one of my favorite saxophonists, Eric Dolphy fits the bill perfectly.
As someone who played Tuba (and Sousaphone in marching band), it keeps you in shape. That thing is heavy, especially the Sousaphone, so there's no room for rotundity.
@@user-mj3os7yj3c 🙋😅🤣It strictly means belonging to a particular key or major scale. ie no notes or accidentals outside the key. In a less strict sense it means not veering too far from the key or it's Diatonic partners. It also normally implies tonal harmony as opposed to modal or blues harmony. Folk, country pop and kids music is normally diatonic. Jazz, Classical, and Film music is often not diatonic music.
I play piano, celesta, organ and harpsichord in several orchestras and it's the best thing ever! Us pianists don't have any problems with orchestral stuff
@@AnimTunes you’re good 😂 the violin is tuned a fifth higher than the viola. The viola is slightly larger than a violin and therefore much more difficult to play quickly, but many people greatly prefer the deeper, richer tones of the viola over the violin when playing repertoire from the romantic era for example. I’d recommend searching “Timothy Ridout Ralph Vaughan Williams Suite for Strings” on TH-cam or Spotify for an example
I play bassoon. I personally am only scared of playing the Rite of Spring because of how high it is. For a competition, I am playing a different solo by Stravinsky (Berceuse from the Firebird) and I love it. I’m not afraid of Stravinsky’s music I’m general, I’m just afraid of the Rite of Spring.
As a 16 year old trombonist, French horn player, and pianist, I can confirm that I legally need at least 1 crate of beer, and it’s not that pianists hate orchestra, we just don’t need it, and I have no idea who that soccer team is
As a violinist, pianist and cellist, I believe Cellists are actually super attractive in my sinfonic orchestra 🥲 Violinist do think they are better at everything.. (WE ARE)... and I love classical music
As a metalhead, I was waiting for the electric guitar before I realized this was only for classical music. Before that, I already picked the vocals, because I dream of being a vocalist in a metal band. After realizing, I picked the violin (I'd like to learn that too). So now I am a very undesirable and depressed human. I'm gonna cover my face in corpse paint and create a one person dsbm band now.
02:07 cymbals is true the first time I played it, it was in Finlandia and I was panicking everytime and I also didn't know it was that heavy so I was badly struggling 💀
As a person who loves the violin, I am in fact thinking I'm best at most(but I have flaws like everyone) things and it is in fact true most of the time, because people entrust me to do things
As someone who plays several different instruments, i feel like it would be unfair to pick a favourite child- but I hit like as soon as Viola came up 😅 As a flautist and cellist I appreciate being called intimidating and hot though I really don't agree with those stereotypes 😄 As a violinist and a singer- This is why I am the viola stereotype!! 😩 As a pianist- nah uh, not true! (Probably because it's not my main instrument) And piccolo kinda has to be included in my favourite instruments group as I use to play it when I was still in school but sadly don't have my own piccolo. I have the teddy i named piccolo though 😊 But now you've heard of someone who has piccolo among their favourite instruments!! And ahem, where are recorder and panflute!? Also my very Protestant, Dutch reformed, organ playing relatives would be disapproving of the organ stereotype 😂
Thanks for the love and appreciation for xylophone and other mallet instruments, it’s a very underrated instrument. I also love the celesta, played Holst the Planets on Celesta, it’s also pretty underrated
I'm a flutist, but in the philharmonic where I play there's only one blonde and one redhead on the clarinet, apart from that they all have black hair...
Let me know what YOUR favorite Instrument is🙌🏻🎵
cello!
Viola!
Contrabassoon
Ooh tough choice. My favorites are cello, viola, english horn, and bassoon
To watch: Cello and Flute. To play: Piano. To play virtually: Acoustic Bass.

Definitely the oboe. It goes from nasally ironic, to sweetly melancholic, to vaguely mystic. Not in the same piece, of course!
Very well said. Just that tiny bit gentler then clarinet and it makes all the difference.
FR!!
That's why I love it so much! It was my favorite before I even started playing it. I love playing the oboe.
