I showed this video to a friend and they said "Nice oboe."
We aren't friends anymore.
Bob Ament that happens to me a lot as a bassoonist 😂
Yea I get that a lot
I remember the first day going into the rehearsal room and getting asked if I started playing oboe, let’s just say they were bleeding from the forehead with a bocal sticking out
So even in America is unpopular. Here in Italy many people do the same mistake
I play the cello and once some boy on a street pointed at my case and yelled: "mom, look, a philharmonic!"
I play trombone and someone said "is that a trumpet"
I play bass clarinet and someone said, “Nice Saxophone.”
😤
@@TransitNerd I feel your pain (I play Contrabass and it hurts when I have to take it to some of my classes and kids go "wow Squidward is tall!")
I play alto sax but I am going to switch to bassoon but someone asked me if my sax was a trombone and I said yes and now he is never going to get his instruments right.
2:05 is where they start that one part
Thanks Jaron.
Webby The Dino I really like that one part.
Webby the dino Best profile pic and Name EVER!
Thanks
While I'm a clarinet player, this is why I envy double-reed instrument players, especially Bassoons. Keep up the good work!!
Must have the contra part in there, even if it's for only the 20 or so measures it's important. Love the "muted cornet" part.
I've been playing the bassoon for a little over two years now, and I have to say it is one of the most fun instruments I have ever played
Not to mention the scholarships and extra points in grades for multiple octaves in scale tests.
One of the hardest too.
From one tuba to a bunch of bassoons that was awesome!
Nicely done! Love the arrangement!
love this sooo very much! thank you for sharing! the drums... such a nice touch!
OMG it does not get any better than this!
hilarious when big gal kicks the bass drum
Over the top awesome! Serious gravity, along with its opposite, comedy. Amazing chops!
Amazing!
You guys are totally my bassoon heroes. I hope to be this good one day.
FANTASTIC ARRANGEMENT!!!.....Righteously Performed.
I love this piece and I play the Bassoon too.
You're awesome
I've been working to learn this piece for orchestra and DAMN is it hard. Epic hats-off to all of you for playing it so well. Sounds really great arranged for bassoons. What a versatile instrument!
Played an excerpt for my Grade 11 instrumental music class at school. Such a cool piece, and really hard. You have my utmost admiration!
I was playing my Bassoon and a litle boy came up to me and said, "You play Clarinet?".... i was like just get out of here, just leave.
A friend of mune that plays trombone said if i play the oboe i was like go away with yo brass
Hahaha it one of the many "perks"' of playing Bassoon. But then again, what could you expect from a trombone? Haha, nice to hear from you Rafael! :)
Haha
no just teach him, i used to play it too and when they came to talk about instrument i never heard before it too. not all the people know this instrument. love this video
Gabby Nava my own family calls my Bassoon an oboe :C
Super COOL!! This is some real virtuoso playing. This piece just seems made for the bassoon. I especially love the contrabassoon. Who could forget this instrument in Stravinsky?
love it
This is my favorite thing ever right now! :D
Well done. You are barking mad, I love it!
That was amazing! I wish I could be good as you one day!
it must be so hard for play. ı can't :O congratulations girls. you did it with different parts of basson and contrabassoon, in clarinet we are doing similar things too: like just mouthpiece blowing.
This is so enjoyable 😊
I love da bassoon
Excelente
Great!!!!!!!
Bassoon... love it! One section reminded me of Peter Schickele!(aka PDQ Bach)
ur amazing!! i hope to learn the bassoon someday
Now this is just awesome! One of my favorite pieces performed by my favorite bassoon quartet!! What could be better?
Yes. Very Much.
You are all magnificent!
...ah...
Yeah, I play trombone, the long slidey thing. I've also played bassoon (loved it, but I couldn't move my fingers very fast, used to moving my arm)... And French horn... And piano... And concert pipe organ... And timpani (one concert, Beethoven's 5th)... And double bass (two half-hour lessons at a music camp, killed my left index finger for a good two weeks)...
I like to play this 24/7 on my bassoon
cool!!!
Amazing :)
😳... Isn't this from Fantasia when Micky mouse was sucking at his simple task of cleaning? 🤔 a little part of it reminded me of it... So I don't know...
Yess the scene is called "The sorcerers apprentice"
One of my faves! The Sorcerer's Apprentice composed by Paul Dukas
I don't understand why the hell the person that was recording in one part of the video was gigling
Probably the recorder?
Wow
The person recording ruins the video.
they have laughed in other videos too
I honestly don't understand what they are laughing about. Nothing about this is funny. There aren't even any "funny" sounds happening and the skill required is insane!
Rock on guys, rock on.
Never knew contrabassoon existed, but it's amazing.
You should check out the ophicleide or the bass saxophone.
OMG YES!!!!!!!
This is incredible. Thanks for posting! LOVE THE FARTING BEDPOSTS!!!!! All due respect, of course, haha.

I’m going to ask you nicely to please *please* tell me that you were joking or else we are going to have ourselves a happy little accident-
@CharlieBVB OMG! SAME HERE! what is it with other peeps and oboes? even my mom calls it an oboe, and she used to play bassoon!
Could yall please upload this to Trevco Music! I would love for my bassoon ensemble to play it
Sooooo many times this happens to me
I thought the sorcerer's Apprentice was epic this just made 10 time more epic
i have tried so hard to play this instrument. i currently play trombone. but i think i need a teacher or something. i love the sound of the instrument
Same here man! I went from trombone to bassoon as well, and at first I had no idea how to even get a sound to come out of the reed since I was so used to the mouthpiece of brass instruments. You should definitely get a teacher, but two problems for bassoon is there's not many teachers for bassoon, and the lessons usually cost quite a lot. But its totally worth it, and one of my main goals for bassoon is to play this piece. It's my favorite for bassoon.
People I've talked to do say that playing trombone helps with bassoon and vice versa. I play the bassoon and have had a go on the trombone quite a few times, the embouchure is actually quite similar!
KingLoop13 I am currently in the process of switching from Euphonium (trombone mouthpiece) to bassoon and honestly the sound isn't all that hard to make, you just have to realize where to press the embouchure down. Don't forget that seeing as it is a woodwind instrument, you are blowing air through the reed to create vibrations, not vibrating your lips to blow air through the horn. Make sure you are using the correct reed (if you are having trouble, start off on a softer reed) and NEVER EVER use a plastic reed. Also, make sure you are blowing enough warm air. Bassoons don't work well in cold environments. Once you get started, remember that you don't need nearly as much air constantly going through the instrument to play a bassoon as you do a brass instrument.
Alex Lee I didn't even know plastic reeds were a thing haha. That seems ridiculous. I use medium-soft pre-made reeds or I get them from a site that my teacher recommended. They have a size they refer to as "Regular", and I usually shave them down as I like getting the sound out very easily. Only problem is the fact that this makes my reeds EXTREMELY fragile, which means I go through reeds every 2 months or so.
I also just decided to rent a bassoon made of I believe redwood as the ones my school supplied were plastic beginner ones that produced quite the unpleasant sound. It was much harsher than the wooden one I use now. Thanks for all those tips by the way.
Actually trombone and bassoon don't have much of a different embouchure. I am also about to learn trombone while continuing bassoon. :)
i want the recorder part, where can i get it?
Where did u get the sheet music
Shit got real when the contrabassoon is broken out.
Y las partituras de esto?
I played this solo
Oh dang my brooms are flooding my house plz someone help
Great performance. I wish whoever was recording it realized their laughing almost ruined it.
Bravo, musicians.
is there anyway i can get the sheet music?
I get it ALL THE TIME in school T^T
the guy laughing tho :/
THEY LAUGH IN EVERY VIDEO
Exactly! My friend who also plays the basson has had people think she was A FLUTE before!
And also when they say the tall oboe
@zachotak11 Because contra is freakin awesome
What is contra?
brave!
What was the little instrument they used to make a higher noise? They did a great job though! I felt like it needed a bit more contrabassoon, but it's still great without it!
Blue Stars piccolo
Sounds and looks like a whistle of some sort -- straight instead of transverse -- or maybe a recorder? (Though I admit neither I nor a google search has any clear idea what a "Blue Stars" piccolo is?)
Oh! Two different higher instruments -- something whistle-y in the beginning played by the back right player, something kazoo-y played towards the end by the front right player.
And then the whistle-y instrument again at the very end. (Commenting as I listen for the first time.)
It’s a tin whistle
every bassonist gets it, not only you
I play the trossingen lyre and everyone says "hey nice harp!".
I then answer to them : "Je ne voust lairoie en vif"
👍🏿 👍🏿 THIS is the most Sexiest Fantastique video on this damn TH-cam!! (.. and yes I played the Fagotto too.)
Oh yeah I play this every single day, except a bit faster. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed this guys!
I play the basson(: It was the best decision ever made in my life! But the thing I hate is when people say "it doesn't even look like an instrument and it sounds like a big ugly boat"
This is fantastic?!?!
EVERY FRIDGIN PERSON I KNOW CALLS IT AN OBOE!!!!! It DOESNT EVEN LOOK LIKE A FRIDGIN OBOE!
Jeesh, I played this at Eastern Washington University...TOO MANY ACCIDENTALS!!!!!
Completely agree
I want to hear Yuki with the melody more offen
2:20
@Bsnnerd lol same here
I've always wondered how classical players choose their main instruments. I mean I play in a metal band and I play the lead guitar because in metal the lead guitar is king, my friend plays the drums because in metal the drums are essential but no one wants to play the bass because in metal no one gives a damn about the bass player. So I guess that in classical music everybody wants to play the violin or the piano but why choosing the bassoon or the oboe or the trombone. I mean I love the sounds of those instruments don't get me wrong, I'm just wondering how and when someone decide to choose those instruments instead of the other aforementioned more famous instruments.
Usually based off their favorite songs, or the directors made them play it and they fell in love with afterwards
I play alto clarinet and I usually just get what the hell is that? I specialize in bizzare instruments... haha
Well an oboe is kinda like a soprano bassoon kinda like a trumpet is a soprano trombone.
Fantasia 1940 the sorcerers apprentice
Needs more contra ;)
And when you play an oboe, and tell someone "I play the oboe" and they get a blank stare - "What's an oboe?"
Is that worse?
Breaking winds. Ha ha sweet 😂
Ever heard someone call it a flute or picallo? I have :(
I think you spelt 'love' wrong
wowsers. thats a bit extreme! Haha
YES!!! And then I think: "Really? An oboe?" -.-
absa-frickin-lutly DESPISE IT
In contrast, I play the oboe and hate it when people call it a bassoon.
My mom called a cello an oboe.
I play bassoon and a friend asked me if I played the xylophone :v
Oboe suits it better, don't you think? hehe
I play the bassoon. And i hate it when people call it an oboe. Anyone else?
I play bassoon, and must agree, but its even worse when my cello is called a "big violin"-_-.
@caIvinss4 I really can't like your comment anymore than TH-cam will allow me... :)
why were people laughing
How the hell does someone confuse an oboe with a bassoon? I would understand if someone confused the clarinet and oboe, but come on.
I think they only get as far as "weird double reed instrument" in their heads. If it's not something they ever really think about, it's a natural mistake -- after all, they've managed to name the most closely related common woodwind. It's only if you know both instruments it seems insane.
I play bassoon and do hate that, but equally annoying is having my trombone called a trumpet. :|
yah me to people can be so dumb
the farts
