As a clarinetist I hereby confirm that an oboe is indeed a cool clarinet 100% definitely not a completely different instrument

That was the best « hi » ive ever heard 😭

As an clarinet player I have no words to say but it was beautiful

As a clarinetist, I’ll say that was genuinely a very impressive first try. Spencer has a better tone than I do 😂

"it didn't work." No shit 😂

I hate it when people ask what kind of saxophone i play(i play bass clarinet)

That “FrAnCe” caught me off guard

I'm also an oboist and my sister let me borrow her clarinet once. It went about the same as you experience haha, biting the mouthpiece was mindblowing and when I tried to add vibrato she was like "wth are you doing" lmaooo

As a clarinetist, I can confirm that all clarinetists say hi like that

i like how spencer tried to use the oboe fingerings

As a person who plays clarinet, I’m impressed by your first try! It took me two days of practice to even get sound out😂

"It didn't work" was me as a 6th grader when I played clarinet lolll

I’m mainly a violinist and I remember my big jump to playing the clarinet… it was quite an interesting first experience lol😂

“It didn’t work”😂

"Really? Thats so thought provoking" Best word

bro plays better than me and ive been playing for years

“That was so thought provoking” 😂

not them using the same reed 😭

A part of my soul died when I saw oboe and heard clarinet

The fact he’s so used to the tiny reed/mouthpiece of an oboe makes this so much funnier! But, I play bass clarinet, so if I picked up a b flat, I’d probably have some issues 😂

"Say hi" *Proceeds to shred like Squidward never could* "Ok"

as a clarinet player, you are an absolute god

As a clarinet player I am afraid of how fast he gan go over the bar 😭

TIP OF THE TONGUE TIP OF THE REED!😂😂 I always call my friends squidward u should too

That is such a cool instrument! My friend plays oboe and loves your content!

Where did Josh get his clarinet from

as a clarinet player all i can say is that im very proud of you and it was beatiful🥹

Feel like the algorithm knew I had just recently started practicing clarinet again.

Bro learned how to play clarinet faster than i could say, "he took playing Oboe to the next level-"

"FRÆÑÇÈ" 😭

As a clarinetist and bass clarinetist that scale Josh did at the beginning was perfect

It's giving "I finger you blow" 🙌✨️😭

As an oboist, I did not know that you had to bite the clarinet's mouthpiece like that-

as a clarinet player, this hurt me to watch, even though i started a few months ago, it still hurt me inside

Your first attempt was extremely good. I taught my friend the clarinet and it took her 5-6 hours to get to the low notes and even that's good.

As a clarinet player I would never allow somebody else to put my mouthpiece in their mouth!!! Gross! 🤢

I genuinely wish the people in my band class could play oboe like you. I know they’re still learning but every time they try to make a sound it sounds like an animal dying.

I also play the clarinet and would to learn to play the Oboe. 😅I really like this video❤

"That was definetly not a hi" 😂😂😂

As a euphonium player, I can relate to having your instrument be called the complete wrong thing. People are just like, “That’s a cool tuba.” or “I didn’t know you played tuba!” It’s very sad.

I play oboe but i started off on clarinet I probably could get some notes out but I don’t remember how to play it tho 😂

As a horn player i indeed see two clarinet players /j Jokes aside that was amazing for your first time

His face when you almost played Rhapsody in Blue like “Wait, wha-“

"say hi" **difficult piece** "ok"

“We don’t use vibrato” “I do” Me as a jazz bone talking to my friend who plays tenor before jamming 😂

not the FRAAAUNCE clip out of nowhere 💀💀

As a clarinet getting the first note out was the hardest part but once you get how to shape your mouth than your golden.

my english teacher called me squidward when he was talking about how cool saxophones and clarinets are😅

I’m a saxophone player who used to play clarinet, and you played it better than I ever could 🥺

You have convinced me to start learning the oboe. Unfortunately, I will not be able to play for a year or so, because if i start before I move my grandma will take it up as well, but it’s on my instrument bucket list

As a clarinetist, Josh’s hands had a seizure at the beginning.

As a proud Clarinet play, I can confirm that was the most harmonuis C, to D, to E I have ever heard in my lifespan

"RAAAAAAAANS"

As a clarinet player that was the most beautiful “hello”

I’m a euphonium and a few days ago I got to play my friend’s clarinet for the first time and it was kinda weird. Bass clarinet is definitely a lot harder than Bb clarinet

Put it in your mouth 👄 and blow 🌬️

You have to tighten your embouchure

“We don’t use vibrato” him: “I do 💁🏻‍♂️” 😂

STOP I CRACK UP IN EVERY SHORT THAT HAS THE MISS UNIVERSE FRANCE REFERENCE

as a clarinet player i absolutely think that it was absolutely beautiful

That was actually very good 😂😂😂

Oboes are such a pretty instrument. My sister plays clarinet and I currently play tuba so when I try to play or even hold her instrument it just feels so weird to me.

The fact he went for the Gershwin intro 🤣

That was an awesome first time playing as a clarinet player, you did better than my first day with it

As a person who plays oboe and clarinet the oboe and clarinet are amazing instruments and I found this video funny and interesting

As a middle school clarinet player with a sister that plays oboe you did a fantastic job

the amount of sass in that “it didn’t work 🙄” was PALPABLE

As a clarinet player I have to say.......That was beautiful 🥲

I play Clarinet and bro played clarinet better than I even can😭💀

As a clarinet player that was actually very impressive. The fact they thought the oboe was a clarinet HURT EVERY FIBER IN MY BEING. but your friend IS SO GOOD WHAT

The fact that josh said hi but play the clarinet

One time when I was just starting out in playing the clarinet I had this ‘how to play the clarinet book’ with an OBOE as the instrument in the front cover

LOVELY!!

Bro was fr, “Hi Im charmander” at the start

That is in fact how clarinetist say hi. “Hello” is the opening glis to Rhapsody in Blue

I play oboe and I’ve just started learning the clarinet for marching band. I squeak *SO* much!!😂😂

As a clarinet player I can 💯 percent confirm that the instrument is hard at first

That unexpected FRAAUNCE

Just starting back on clarinet, and his “hi” makes me want to give it back up. What was I thinking 🤣

Y’all should try to play the double bass.

My friend plays clarinet and oboe (certain instruments for certain songs at school.) He learned the clarinet last year in beginner band and then made it to first chair symphonic this year- over all of the eighth graders who have played for three years instead of two. The band director asked if he could play the oboe for the oboe solo in Shenandoah (is that how you spell it?) in American River Songs. My friend learned it quick too. He had to of course though, cuz we’re playing American River Songs for MPA, and he only started learning oboe a little bit into the school year. Still really cool though :D

I play the Clarinet and the Alto Saxophone, so if you have any friends that play the Saxophone (just for fun), should try and learn. It's really fun.

As a clarinet player you did fabulous

“:D Clos-” “It didnt work 😠”

As a clarinet player I can 100% confirm that you have to hold it to play

As a clarinetist i say he is very good for his first time 😊

He’s better than the clarinet players in my band. Congrats 😂🎉

Him saying hold it as first step reminds me of the ad of the dad traching his son how to drive and his first lesson is getting in the car lmao 🤣

The “FRANCE” jumps are was hilarious😂

As a clarinetist…I can confirm….the oboe is DEFINITELY another version of a professional built clarinet 😩😩

can you guys PLEASE❤ play rush E it would be so fun to hear!!

As a clarinet player, worst insult is the squidward.

As a clarinet player, I can confirm that an oboe is indeed a very cool looking clarinet.

as a clarinet player who is LEARNING the oboe, they are quite different!

I play the clarinet. I'm obsessed with it

The “we don’t use vibrato” “I do”😂😂😂

As a clarinet (played for 2 years) that switched to oboe I can say that you were better than I ever was on clarinet lol

The references 😂😂😂

As a clarinet player I was very impressed on how quickly he learned how to get the clarinet to actually play-

He was pretty good. I took me 3 hours to sound like that in my first time blowing the clarinet.
