_zooms in on pistons and valves_
"Fundamental pitches..."
zooms in on someone opening the spit valve

It wouldn't be too hard to just add functioning valves to that tuba. Sure is a shame nobody did that when it was built
They're non-functional, they are only there so that they could use a similar design to seem the same
Because they're for decoration.

As a tuba player, I can confirm we play more than 1 and 5. We also play rests.
Made a playlist of my favourite TACET orchestral excerpts for tuba, by ArnoldJacobs
The world is going to end soon: one of the pieces at my brass band starts with a tuba solo.
Also, holding pedal tone for about 8 measures.
As a bass trombonist for my hs band I can confirm this because i just dub the tuba part a octave higher. I cry every time time
@@ultamateamazingcraft9270 you should see if your director would pick something by John Mackey such as Aurora Awakes that actually allows for the bass trombone to be showed off properly. We played that last year and our low brass had a blast. Also, check out Starry Crown for the ultimate band trombone moment. We're playing that this year.
If you can play the small one, you can play the big one

I'm from Montréal and our symphonic orchestra has an octobass. During the only concert I saw which had it (I believe it was Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique), there was supposed to be an octobass solo. I was sitting in the choir and during the performance, there was a strange noise. After the concert, one of the double bass players we knew in the orchestra told us about the solo and the fact that an octobass string broke just before it, so the musician had to play it on the double bass. He was very disappointed because very few pieces feature octobass, much less a solo. I wish I could have heard what that sounded like.
MC Venne total bruh moment. Though I’m sure in the case of this piece it was a couple steps above what’s considered the standard tuning so that way the audience can hear more than the overtones
MC Venne which is probably why the sting broke
Yess the octobass is now displayed in the famous concert hall "maison symphonique" and I always wanted to hear it during a concertt
@Èvan Moreau You're also from Montréal. Cool! Do you prefer the OM or the OSM. I've always loved the OSM, but my clarinet teacher is in the OM. I got to see him kill some super difficult Shostakovich solos. It was awesome!
@Èvan Moreau Montreal has 1 of the couple in the world, the other one is in Arizona somewhere
The octobass sounds like when you need to move a table but you don’t want to lift so it makes that terrible sound when you drag it across the ground
World's largest instrument is a train... Change my mind

@@ubiquityphantom6354 That's pathetic.
@@andrewdevine3920 exactly how?
You mean the subcontrabass
Claire W Edits no its an octobass
5:46 "the lowest C is at 16 hertz, which is below what the human can hear"
Then why the hell is this thing made for if we cant hear it
It’s more of the feeling it gives. I strongly encourage you to look up videos of an octobass in concert, it’s actually amazing
There’s strong evidence that subsonic sounds can influence a person’s mood, and even a study suggesting them to be the explanation for some “hauntings.”
You can perceive vibrations through the skin and body, not just air vibrations. Many movies, eg Irreversible, use infrasonics to create ominous uncomfortable feelings. Also, 20Hz-20k Hz as the human hearing is very approximate. Very few adults can hear up to 20kHz. I tested that I can hear 14Hz - 18.2kHz. A lot of people like myself should be able to hear octobass.
*t h e r u m b l e*
When we talk about frequency we talk about fundamental. Unless you are talking about a sinewave, a sound is made of fundamental frequency and overtone (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x... times higher tones at different frequencies) this is what makes different instruments playing same frequencies sound different, with frequencies below 20 you listen to only the overtones of the frequency you are playing.
Normally I am totally 100% with you guys. But Bach himself loved stops on the organ of the 32' pitch series. A large portion of that range is inaudible. But in the context of things its amazing as the foundation of the chorus because you can hear overtones... There's a reason people shell out literal tens of thousands of dollars to have that on an organ.
that might have been _part_ of the reason the city fathers of Atlantic City and Sydney consented for 64' ranks to be engineered, constructed, and installed in their immense municipal organs.
but some deep and childlike sense of wow and wonder, i feel sure, was the _rest_ of the reason for those mighty subsonic voices to be manifested physically. _just because we can._
Is it really inaudible though? I mean, it's not like I hear nothing when one of those large instruments is at C-1 at 16 Hz. And it sounds lower than the octave above, so I don't know that I'd say 16 Hz is inaudible, at least not for all of us. Maybe my perfect pitch has something to do with why I can hear the really low stuff as pitches as well as that bass depth?
@@caterscarrots3407you’re experiencing the illusion called the “missing fundamental” where you extrapolate other harmonics to perceive and basically mentally fill in the fundamental. When we talk about the limit of human hearing we mean what frequency a “pure tone” needs to be until it’s inaudible. And even testing that is extremely difficult because all audio equipment and our ears themselves have nominal distortion, which can form harmonics even when the source is a pure tone.
No there ain't because no organist ever paid for that, their church does instead >:3
*Maybe Viola isn’t the most useless instrument!*
Famous last words of TwoSet
Rest assured, this won't be their famous last words. We have a lot to expect from them
The irony is at the time when they say it, it’s the viola (and cello) playing melody in the background.
I don’t know whether this is intentional or not.
Nobuko imai sound much better on the viola than them on the violin

The Contrabass flute ***CAN*** actually be musical. It's really unique.
Yeah, I cant really imagine the other ones being musically useful. Howevet I just dont think such a low flute really blends with all the higher ones.
@@ItsMe-ic5oc the octobass is useful. When you get into notes that low they create a lot of... well... bass and you can physically feel them, even the ones you can't hear. That kind of sound can be really useful if you want the audience to feel discomfort as sounds beneath or at the bottom of human hearing often create anxiety in humans, or put a lot of low rumbling power into the piece where you feel the music more than hear it. It's nice to have the option for effect.
@@pubcle I agree with what you say. I wrote my comment based on the fact that the contrabass flutes' range is quite higher than the octobass and that tuba. I do think the octobass (and the tuba) can make a useful sound effect like that. I also watched a video of Richard Bobo about a sub contrabassoon that he is building, where he explains that even for the lower notes that are below the human hearing range (like on the octobass), the sound will still have plenty of audible overtones.
Yeah it sounds perfectly fine, but the SubContrabass Recorder is even cooler and actually made out of wood.
the octobass sounds like a table being dragged across the floor
maiti fstr To me, it sounded like a loud, big boat.
True tho ☕👌😅
It sounded like a cruise ship to me lmao
That probably has a measurable frequency. I like playing with low frequencies on my speakers to make different parts of my house resonate

‘Did he just say speechless? I though it was a conversation starter.’
That comment lol. I just died laughing😂😂😂
@@joellejosephk I did too LOL
I think low flutes have more potential than people give them credit for. If they are amplified better (and you could therefore use technique focused on optimizing signal to noise ratio instead of projection), and are recorded more carefully, they can sound amazing. However, it seems that nobody bothers to experiment with them much.
Just place a mic up to them and amplify
You really couldn’t just transcribe a peddle tone instrument to a bass flute. They can only play a quarter note at a time. Puh puh puh really diminishes its practicality.
Bruh, you’ve got “the biggest wind instrument” being held by a person stood infront of a goddamn ORGAN.
"Did he say he was speechless? It was meant to be a conversation starter" xD that shit had me dead
Ling Ling could hear 16 Hz easily

16Hz is too high for Ling Ling. Its 0.5Hz. Hahahah!
Why is Brett so obsessed with how to transport those instruments in a plane??🤣🤣🤣
Some performers perform all over the world.
@@user-gu9yq5sj7c I know, I know, I just found very funny how Brett kept talking about planes
Subcontractavethings on a plane!
Flying on planes is a touchy subject in the music world. Things were fine for many years and then got really bad.
I believe the first widespread incidents were with acoustic guitar players. They would check their guitars, but when reclaimed the instruments were damaged, missing, or completely destroyed, either by mishandling or the temperatures and pressure changes under the plane. Checking your instrument very quickly became taboo.
Then things started happening to instruments that didn't need to get checked. In one case an airline agent reached over a counter to take a violin from a musician who was holding it, they both lost their grip on the case and the violin broke on the floor.
To avoid all of this, it's common for independent artists with larger instruments like cellos to purchase a second seat for the instrument (that's what Brett is talking about). A few airlines are cool with this but sometimes TSA will force you to check your instrument or refuse to let you on the plane altogether, with no policy saying it's not allowed and no reimbursement for the tickets.
So yeah, it's hard to imagine what you would do for one of these.
“Automobile pricing”

dude there are flutes that are literally the price of a small house. instruments are crazy bro. whoever thought "lets make a metal tube like... $80,000 that makes sense"

I actually had the opportunity to play with that flute several years ago at a flute choir weekend. It was very interesting, the contra bass flute which is becoming more common (one starts at $10K) has the same range as a bass. I am a flute choir conductor and have a member that owns a contra bass flute. While it is not a solo instrument, it really does add a lot. But the sub-contra bass flute is much less common. When I played in that choir with her, there were only 3 in the world. It might be different now. Your question was - why not just have a tuba or a bass? Well then it wouldn't be a flute choir. There ARE lots of flute choir pieces that use different instruments, percussion, piano, bass....etc....but it doesn't have the same timbre as when all flutes play.
Now I'm imagining someone playing the triangle, but it's the size of an octabass.
Ling Ling can lift up the titanic tuba with one finger
ItzMyLife And it’s pointless 😂
He doesn't do that. He only lifts important things like his 1.3 mill violin or his medical books
Yeah pinky
"It" could at least play that Octo Bass properly..
Rephrase: Ling Ling could at least play that Octo Bass properly.
Because he does scales for 15 hrs a day
The Octobass can be used in orchestra and I saw the Montreal Symphony Orchestra use it twice for some John Adams pieces last year. It is a sight to behold and believe me when I say that everyone noticed it when it started playing.
It was really more of a sub bass than a bass. Everyone was vibrating in their seats. I wouldn't call it totally useless, because it is a pretty cool experience
Now this is epic everyone
Yeah, the octo bass showed in this video sounds bad because that guy didn't play it good enough, and we hear it through a speaker.
@@QuynhNguyen-qv9xy the guy who played, if I'm not mistaken, is a curator and not a musician
I’m sorry but...
John Adams?

Honestly this video kinda rubs me the wrong way. Yeah sure, all these instruments admittedly don't have much of a purpose in mainstream ensemble/orchestral music, but they're unique and can provide a very distinct sound when used properly. No one was saying "Hey, look at this giant instrument, why aren't we always using these in orchestras??" It's just cool to see unique instruments like this that you don't see or hear in a normal setting. I was especially digging that sub-contrabass flute :)
Im just imagining how long it would take to rosin that bow
Here’s a story:
I’m an Irish whistle player first and foremost, and my lowest pitch a is high D on treble. In other words, it’s pretty fucking high. When I started playing I had tiny hands and had to play a whistle in G ( it was so high all all but the lowest G were ledger lines in treble). Anyway, I went to group lessons, and my lovely teacher decided that we would ALL play on high G whistles - she had to teach a bunch of 8 year olds how to play these... things made of tin that regularly had to reach more than three octaves above middle C. The poor woman...
i got a tin whistle recently!!
I love to listen to tin whistle but I don't think I'd ever play it - such a high sound!

how does one even learn sm like an organ? isn't it mad expensive and huge and cant be moved?
@@rim2955 well, you go and take lessons on actual organs, so you have to commute to a church. You can get small organs for home use, they look similar to upright pianos but with multiple keyboards + the foot keyboard. And yes, those are really expensive. If you can play the piano you can at least keep your fingers in check, if you have a piano at home. And I have read on one school's website that they take their organ students on regular "trips" to play on many different organs, since all organs function a bit differently.
-Sincerly, knowledge from the internet
Actually, the smallest organ is far smaller than you think. And I'm not even talking about small reed organs the size of a normal desk.

Actually, the bass is way, way softer and less ugly, it doesn't sound like that monstrosity..
Fyi something to consider... might laugh at this low note at 16 cycles might sound strange by itself but mixed in with other sounds it adds some amazing flare... just look at a pipe organ, 32 foot reeds sound crazy some but amazing combined with everything else, some organs even have 32 foot strings and flutes... that rumble is a lot more exciting then you'd think.

I really hate it to disagree with you, but...
The sound of the subcontrabass was very decent and I can imagine that it can have a valid position in a piece which uses it.
The octobass is the perfect instrument for sounds which are less heard and more felt. You said it yourself as a joke but it's not that abstract.
The titanic tuba...
Ok. I am unable to defend that one. However, the other two instruments are rather awesome.
The art of feeling the music physically is a special sensation only the octobass can do. A pipe organ can easily combat this with a 32' resultant stop to add a deep rumble to the already voiced ensemble. But sometimes you need a natural timbre. So the sub-contrabass flute is use which is equivalent to a tuba in a regular ensemble to add the deep end to a flute ensemble
I fully agree with you. I neither can think of anything the (subcontrabass?)tuba might be played at. But the doublecontrabass flute has a beautiful sound and the octobass actually is part of few compositions. I really don't think these instruments were invented and built just by fun. It has a reason why they do exist. I also got to know, that Hans Zimmer for example used the octobass in some of his pieces. So I can't do anything but disagree with what TwoSet were talking about.
@@matthewbeesley8184 32' resultant? why not use a 32' stopped rank, or an actual 32' open pipe?

The deepest notes like that are felt alot more than they are heard. But the actual vibration could still be felt in person. I'd imagine a full orchestra with an octo bass or any of these extremely deep instruments, would sound extremely powerful
I think attacking these instruments isn't really fair... Of course there's no way this is practical, these are mainly just something that's cool, a proof of concept, or really niche.

A flute does not need to be made of silver. Unlike a stringed instrument, the sound is 100% about the air column. Someone made a flute out of concrete, and it sounded perfectly ok.
Maybe for Flutes, but Clarinets or Trympets made of plastic sound much worse than ones made of wood and brass respectively
Unless it’s a $79.00 eBay special and then it doesn’t sound at all...(I found that out the hard way... )
Its not even close to 100% air. The air column bounces in different ways depending on material, gold/silver and nickel flutes sound different. Wood flutes sound way different.
This isn’t true, flute sounds come from our air vibrating the lip plate, and the vibrations spread throughout the instrument. Concrete wouldn’t be able to vibrate to well tho

manage your time. Give 30 hours of practice and 10 minutes intermittently to watch ling ling (6 times in total) every day.
Hi fellow cuber
@@cubethesquid3919 Hi XD
Multitask
I actually attended a masterclass and played in the flute ensemble with Paige and her counterbass flute. It was impressive to hear it in the flesh, after a while it gets enjoyable to listen to it.
The way they replaced the cello music for the octo bass sound for a split second 😂😂
All of these people saying Ling Ling can play them... you FOOLS. Ling Ling would never play such useless instruments.
oooohhhh, sikeee
buurrnnnnnnn
He can, but he won't.
Ling Ling can make useless instruments useful
Everything but Strad is below Ling Ling
"If you can play something slowly, you can play it quickly."
1:50 that was a really accurate quack
Love the appreciation of the flute in the thumb nail!
2:55 “tubas only play 1 5 anyway”
IF YOU LIKE TO TALK TO TOMATOS, IF A SQUASH CAN MAKE YOU SMILE-

omg please do more of these!!!!! There are some ridiculously monstrous saxophones and clarinets as well!! hahah
As a flautist, I have played what is called the bass flute, and I can certainly agree that my college professor always wanted more bass. So seeing the contra was a welcome surprise.
Incase you don’t know, contrabassoon is 18 feet of tubing too
Eddy: maybe violas AREN'T the most useless instrument.
Me, a violist: well yes, but actually no.
As a violist I can confirm
Me, a violador, yes
Fun fact! In one of stravinskys books on composing he wrote that modern orchestras would most likely use 4-6 octobasses
whats the book called
As a tuba player the idea that we only had play 1 and 5 is so accurate it’s not even funny
one of my fave shows in a while, do another ! or tiniest instruments !
