My sister said that once. I'm still wondering from what galaxy she's from

@@laura-ti1kv *surprised pikachu face*

Yeah my cellist friend said that as well, I let it slide though cuz she plays piano and I’m pretty sure she was talking about playing it on the piano

I'm a cellist and I haven't got to that yet *I'm scared for my life*

OOOOOOOHHHH SO TRUE!!!!!!!

What is bad about sitting behind the horns?

No worries. LingLing will practice for you. He's trying to get up to 50 hours a day.

Ling Ling knows... Ling Ling always knows...

do not worry about what LingLing knows... worry about what their *mother* knows.

Ling Ling would like to know your location

I'm a new audience from Taiwan,can someone tell me what does Ling Ling mean? 😂😂😂 Tks a lot

Serious question: why the hell don't they just use a music notation that puts all the notes on separate lines/spaces instead of having key signatures? Wouldn't that be easier for everyone?

@@Xezlec Actually, no. While the current notation has its problems, it also has some nice properties. If you wrote out all 12 tones, the music would take double the space! Even worse, half of this space would be unused most of the time. A key with 6 sharps (e.g. G flat minor from the vid) can be read remembering simply that there's only one natural note B - so it's not really unusable.

Sounds like deceit from sanders sides

Me: *groans because I have the same note for the whole piece* Piece: *has 5 sharps* Me: *looks over to the violins and tries not to cry for them*

I find 6 sharp easy. All you have to know is that the 7th note is natural. If you practice your scales you will know immediately which note is not sharp. Sure it's messy when they start putting natural which carry over lol. I find more difficult 2-4 sharps. Hard to remember, plus for sure you will start finding double sharps and tons of natural.

this one hit the hardest lmao

eh someone in my school confused a trombone with a cello

@collab. How is that even possible ? 😅

@@MissTwoSetEncyclopedia I'm not even sure. They just saw the case and went. "Nice cello"

I play the bass and I had morning rehearsal. I walked past this choir kid and he said, “Whoa, look at that giant violin!” while pointing at my instrument.

...and a violin to a viola (I have to be very observant to tell the difference to be honest...Except when they are in the orchestra or me listen to them playing)

Tony Jim That is true for me, I play cello

Only violins and violas have shoulder rests tho...

Evanescent_Ally it’s a joke

_laughs in clarinet_

Omg... once I lost my shoulder rest walking out to the stage when I was performing at a concert

Wait where is my pencil?

That last one, oof. Maybe it's different for me as a vocalist, but I think all guitarist roles are sexy, esp when they really dig the part they play. Some of my favorite tracks have really good bass lines. But it seems like Bass is a pretty rare breed cause I see bands recruiting for bass the most, lol.

Well, rythm guitar is the only guitar technique that I play

*In Davie504 's voice* small pp

i play rhythm guitar :(

Devin Sussex Graves the Voicesmith tbh if i could put my skill into a different instrument i would really want to go play bass. i like being a lead guitar but there’s just something about soloing with an actual groove much like joe dart’s breakdowns

I literally started playing piano this month and I'm already getting that. :( Mostly from my goddamn brother and he plays too. Nowhere is safe.

i hav no idea

56 eighth beats in a bar, idk why tho

This is the comment I've been looking for

56 is a multiple of 7 so it's the best way to write time that's a compound of 7, i.e. where a double-dotted note is the tactus. Except I can't imagine why anything that could be written in 56 wouldn't be better-written in 28...

7/1?

"Ling Ling is on vacation" Said no one ever

I do too. Easier to bullshit your way through. Easier generally to play unless you’re a soloist or first chair.

Ironically that is what I'm supposed to be practicing......on bassoon.........

Remember to be sacrilegious

@@BonnietheShibaInu not going to be a problem. It's bassoon quartet. I've got the run down to the bottom in the first phrase in my part. I think I've played it correctly once, and never at speed. I will committing all kinds of crimes against music throughout the whole piece. 😩

Amaaaaiiizing

You monster

And clapping between the movements of the piece

I don't like that!😒

Xplain it! I always cough at concerts 😂

and phone calls ....

I play piano so...

Luciana Soria Gutierrez is that a harpsichord?

When people call your oboe a clarinet

@@lademidavies6942 is that a bassoon?

oh look a mini flute

Nice, our band had 4 bass clarinets. When the school came to record a video to show to the incoming students, she went around naming instruments. “We have well known instruments like flutes and clarinets, our brass section (cue our terrible French horns) and more unheard of instruments like bassoon, euphonium, oboe, and (looks around wildly for a few seconds) bass clarinets! And there are all the times she forgot us in tuning, homework, pieces, and testing. The most melody we’ve gotten was 4 measures. Our teacher has a case of tuba favoritism. Every year, we play a piece called “Hark the Herold Tubas Sing” because tubas “don’t get enough attention or melody” Our section came up with a new name “Bark the Bass Clarinets Cry” We could get away with a lot though. Half the section was always on their phone, and the other half was either eating or reading. I joined bass clarinet because I thought it was cool, but middle school band took the joy out of it. TL,DR: Being a bass clarinet sucks If you see this band teacher, please give bass clarinets more pieces with melody

my new mantra

Practice.

do you mean hypnotising?

@@DarkValorWolf, her spelling engine needs more practicing time

you better still be practicing. 34 more hours.

I know a dude who plays bass clarinet. His name is Dario. BOOM headshot!

@@lapaula_fj_, sounds a lot like "Mario". You filthy lying bastard! You don't know his name! It's illegal to know! >=( >=( >=(

This is like three jokes in one and it's brilliant. First it's a relatable "I do that" kind of "me", then that flips and it's a twist joke about "me" literally just meaning you were identifying yourself as the bass clarinet person in the first place, and then there's the "why not both" interpretation option for a joke about you doing the same thing even THOUGH you're also a bass clarinet player.

More like some snake charming 😂

That's a bit racist you know

I try to get two stands for myself because I tend to bring blank staff paper and compose when I'm not playing. One stand isn't enough because it's really inconvenient to have to switch between the pieces we're playing and the pieces I'm composing. With two stands I can keep both out.

i literally had to share a stand with 3 other flautists once bc I stupidly touched my stand somehow while playing and my music dropped and bc only god knows why the other 3 were sharing 1 stand, so... was not the best concert

Becca Makin OMG I can relate to this SO hard! I remember when I was a high school soloist and there were time that me AND the choir were plotting revenge against our teacher for changing things up last minute😆

- " I never drink cold water during rehearsals"

I felt that in my soul. No way am i practicing a whole new piece two days before the concert.

one rehearsal we just started a new song randomly with no time to prepare and most everyone else knew it and i had to read the lyrics off a piece of paper and hope i didn't butcher the dynamics

We used to have marching band practice at 8 am--during the summer break.

7 AM rehearsals before school are even better, trust me. They totally don't fuck up my sleep schedule...

Try used to have sectionals at 6am then class. One of my friends called me to wake me up. Then it was sectionals 6pm after Orchestra class/rehearsal at 9am my friends and I were so tired and busy we enjoyed class not so much the sectionals, I heard band people had sectionals at 4am-5am back at high school during school. Now it's like just class is rehearsal at 5pm.
