I'm about half way through my fifth month of learning to play the soprano sax. I've discovered many sounds that I think the instrument isn't supposed to make.

as a bassoonist, that last one resonated so deeply with me

I get it now. Squidward wasn’t a bad clarinetist. He was a multiphonic specialist. What’s a genius.

bassoons can do multiphonics too! wouldn’t it be cool to hear an oboe + bassoon multiphonic duet?

There's also flutescream, which is both a weird technique and a Decepticon.

the clarinetist 🫥

The flautist isn’t making weird sounds. He’s just warming up to play some Jethro Tull.

When the weird band kids evolve.

That slap tongue sounds like a boomwacker

As a bassoonist, I can make several noises using just the reed. It doesn't always need to be used as the world's most difficult kazoo.

Yes, clarinets squeaking every five minutes is beautiful. Definitely.

I wasn’t expecting the last part, as a bassoonist it made me laugh my ass off ahahaha

MULTIPHONICS IS THE WORST THING EVER WHEN IM JUST TRYING TO PLAY MY MUSIC

As a flute player, can confirm it’s one of my favorite things to do

When you become a pro musician in the military but still maintain your band kid energy

Definitely beatboxed with my flute more than once-

The clarinet sounds more like a tropical bird! 🦜

I love how Todd from Breaking Bad is just chilling in the background at the end

The guy doing the clarinet trimbal trills looks like he would do clarinet trimbal trills. Idk how to explain but he looks so perfect for the sound lol

The bassoon was hilarious when you added the huge frown emoji 😂

The Clarinet is just 🤣

That clarinet player is a hoot!

As a bassoon player, the most we can do is aggressively crack a note. Specifically G flat..lol

We only have one bassoonist in my band and my favorite part of rehearsal is right at the beginning when she tests her reed. It’s my favorite sound in the world 😂

I’m not a winds player… I’m a string player. And let me tell you, the violin can make some… horrific screeches. Just put the bow behind the bridge and you’ve got an angry demon from hell screeching.

For the clarinet, you take the top part, with the reed and blow, it makes a squeaky noise

Glad the bassoon wasn’t just a clip of them ordinarily playing

as a flute player i need to try this

We still love you Bassoon.

So if I combine 2 things I love, beatboxing and flute, I get a sound like that. Neat!

You know about the ‘ ‘ Light saber ‘ ‘ Note on clarinet? Just amazing.

As a bassoonist the coolest and weirdest is the lowest note it’s so cool! It sounds like a fog horn and it’s so deep, dark, and mysterious 😂

as a clarinet player.. i was totally expecting the clarinet to use the “laughing technique”! where the clarinet sounds like its laughing

Haven’t played a saxophone in years. The tongue slap gave a good jab of nostalgia. 😌

I thought you said you were tired of hearing beautiful woodwind sounds. To me it's music to my ears.

I don't care what anyone says, that flute beatbox was actually really good!

Personally, I like to use the flute mouthpiece and either stick my finger in the end and make it a slide whistle; or use the mouthpiece and rapidly cover and uncover the end to make rainforest noises

Hey now buddy you didn't have to call me out on the Bassoon there lol

These are just as beautiful! Well, most of them.

The look of ABSOLUTE “IM DONE” on the Bassoonist’s face when he has to play that, lol. I think every musician in the world can relate to him.😂

Omg the sax slap tongues!!!! My section leader does that all the time! He’s tried to teach us but I can’t figure it out 😅 Man I love him so much but he’s a senior and is gonna be gone next year 😭😭😭

I remember in high school we had a song with multiphonics in it from sax and clarinet. It was one of my favorite songs I've ever been a part of. Especially with all the weird percussion sounds and flutter tongue from trumpet.

The faces are what make this glorious

that smile from that clarinet player was devious

The face the clarinetist made dude💀

As a flutist myself, I have used the flute beatboxing many times. Aswell as the famous "flute slide whistle"

As a clarinetist, another weird(but fun) sound it can make is if you take the mouthpiece and barrel off(as one), start blowing then change the tightness of your mouth, it can make a very fun noise

The beatboxing flute is the best one honestly

“Tired of hearing beautiful sounds from woodwinds?” Yea, just give it to me

I play the clarinet and I like making owl sounds with the mouth piece

I got requests to play Seven Nation Army on my bassoon Reed. Best minutes spent of my life.

Omg, bassoon! I loved playing the bassoon

Bassoon, the saddest of all instruments😔

The bassoon one is very relatable. But it can sound much weirder especially if you are trying to switch octaves😂Think like a clarinet squeak but not as high pitched (it’s kinda hard to describe). I had to learn the clarinet for marching season but the bassoon will always be my favorite😂

This is my band on a daily when we have the chance not to play music but just play

The flute beatboxing actually sounds kinda cool in a weird way

I like how most US Army troops play instruments

tell the sax player to play the home depot theme and my life will be complete

Timbral trills: *Exist.* John Corigliano: *It's free real estate.*

Shane sounds great like usual!

multiphonics always end up to be what i do when practicing my music

For some reason I love doing the “slap tongue”

The clarinetist looking devious as ever

Thank you for your service

Clarinet and bassoon can also slap tongue. Saxophone and clarinet can also do multi-phonics

I’ve done the slap tongue forever, and am just now learning it has a name lol.

As a drummer I got a fight or flight response when I heard a rhythmic “Mary had a little lamb”

As someone who owns/plays many types of woodwinds, I really liked this!

I’ve always waned to learn how to beatbox on my flute

Haha my band teacher would never let me make that sound with my flute in class

The clarinet guy had me dying in laughter

jet whistles from flutes are another to add to the list

Good thing to know my tax dollars are funding this. This is amazing!

Bassoon can also do slap tonguing.. 😢

Bravo flute !!! Saludos desde Córdoba, Argentina !!

actually i’m tired of my band woodwind section sounding like crap and i’m the only good besides my and my buddie

All the woodwind players knowing the unbelievable irony in the first statement.

All of those are cool sounds! Exept for bassoon...

That smile after the clarinet timbral trills tho loooool

The oboe multiphonics sound like the school fire alarm

I love the faces they each make every time they're done.😂

been playing bassoon for 5 years and the first year i sounded like a dying duck but playing the reeds will never stop being funny to me

All those were nice sounds.

They are still band kids at heart

I love this. I beatboxed a little on my last flute recital but dang I wish I had done more

My wife, Liza, said "it's Mikey!" She went to CCM with you. :) These are super fun!

As someone who plays clarinet, I can confirm that I have indeed discovered that amazing sound

Sax guy's last face made my whole night. 😂 I'm a former marching baritone horn player. Our weird sounds involved sounding like an upset stomach and the rectum after taco bell

multiphonics are so amazing

That clarenet man made me laugh🤣

I love it when our Military musicians get to play!

Clarinet player here. There’s so many sounds I’ve gotten out of my instrument. For example, if you take the bell and hit the larger end flat on your palm, it makes almost a water drop noise. You can also play with just the reed, mouthpiece, and barrel and place your hand on the open bottom of the barrel and move it back and forth to get a weird screeching sorta sound( if that makes sense). You could also just take the reed, mouthpiece, and barrel and play it by sticking your finger through the bottom. The higher or lower your finger is the different notes it makes. Wiggling said finger makes a fun sound with quick alternating notes, kinda like a extremely high pitch, out of tune trill. If anyone wants to try these go for it. Hope this made sense.

That beat boxing was pretty good with the flute

The beatbox was amazing

love those faces in the end

“Are you tired of beautiful sounds coming from woodwinds? i know i am” got me dead

That gaze could tell you they're a clarinetist without the instrument

The bassoon one made me laugh because in band, our bassoonist would do all the time.

been playing flute for a year now and i love it

The clarinet guy at the end- ok but I can also make squeaks when I'm really angry wiff my clarinet ahaha
