Can- Can the next marble machine just be the classic, but scaled to a massive level?

Welp, most organ players must do so as well, so...

@@razorransom1795 organ players are impressive

@@razorransom1795 most musicians do this. heck all of them do

@@rami-succar7356 we must, talking from past experience, but organ and harp and some strings have it rough with all they must play, it can be a lot at once.

@razorransom1795 sure, but you can always put many pages at once the way I do when I practice the piano. thought it doesnt take me long to memorize it so I don't need it for long but you get my point, it's nothing wizardly as literally everyone does it.

TheStormCraft did you hear the marble machine?

Haha. Same here. I remember wlaking through utrecht and hearing this. I was like.. waaaiit hold on. I know this song. I don’t even live in utrecht but just happened to be there.

@@Gren4te so lucky xD

I study in utrecht not far from the domtoren. If the wind blows with the right direction I can sometimes hear it play!

@TheStormCraft i think that you might be lying. i just looked at your channel.

One way to brag

I don't think there is a bigger instrument.

Oh, by the way I can control time. How cool it thst?

A bigger instrument Big Ben plays Megalovania

+A Person Using KZfaq There's always the Great Stalacpipe-an organ built using a cavern's own stalactites across several acres, and much bigger still (over 60 acres if memory serves) if you consider that the entire cavern serves as the organ's resonating chamber. But even playing conservatively and just qualifying the functionally-integrated stalactites, a clock tower's got nothing on that!

rob scallon did a great video on it as well

I really would have loved to hear it live!

I'm a sub. And I was in Utrecht that thay. And I heard it!

@@benniegrootnl how was it?

seems like the whole city is left confused in-terms of what time it is because of the bells :)))

DrakonWyverm "what instrument do you play?" A bell tower. That's one of the best answers to any question.

DrakonWyverm It's more of a bell set played on a keyboard format.

"So what do you play?" I play a set of centuries-old bells that together literally weighs tons on top of a tower

Oh.. and it is powered by a canon.

But it is super regular so not really

Sometimes they have digitally progammable bells, with the sound of the actual bells as a sample, so they can program it to make it sound as good as possible and correct it if they want...

WHAT, HE’S DEAD?

@@hypoelectric Since 5,5 years back.

@@Framusic Most though are real carillons played by real carillonneurs (I play the carillon). There are even carillon schools and in many universities if they have a carillon you can take carillon lessons. They have practice instruments you learn a song on so you don't annoy everyone in earshot.

Realism is tho is that 14th century musician is dead but true

next: the carrilion tower coupled with a kind of MIDI converter module then plays the song directly from iPad..

@@mechatronrasky you would need some large industrial grade solenoids.

Probably because the original was played on an instrument that's sounded very similarly to the bells....

Well the original was played on a bell set

*vibraphone*

vibraphone is similar to bells

@@jeric_synergy8581 youre right and i can only imagine the weather (im from mi). But just imagine the view the mornings the sunsets. On a bad day of mine id probably ignore the cold or wear as many thick layers as i could afford and play my heart out

A carillon could quite easily be an organ stop.

boardwalk hall organ

I was in the city when she was playing David Bowie as a tribute when he passed away. It was incredibly powerful to hear Space Oddity coming from the tower. Magical, indeed.

F Hoekstra that’s must be very exciting

Dude, that tower is so cool. I'd be interested in knowing what songs that tower played to commemorate important events.

That must have been lit tho 😂 I also live in the netherlands but not in utrecht

I want to go there but I don't have enough to get there.

Oh, dat moet te gek geweest zijn. Herkende je de melodie meteen?

Rinoa Super-Genius where are you from, you just said "we"?

Lol, I'm thinking of your church having some fat saw wave.

Hi Rinoa!

Rinoa Super-Genius Actually some of the American churches have a Hammond organ still. That one also has a unique voice for sure.

Rinoa Super-Genius oh hey! I guess I shoulden't be surprised that your interested in Martin's work huh.

I wish I was also there

Wanneer was dat?

That's so cool

So. Did they play any more music after the Marble machine?

Did she play star wars?

Ohhh i get it xD

Proudly 100th liker

And she plays it LOUDer 'n' PROUDer than any guitarist.

True

......like a cannon from 1500's hanging as a clock weight !😂😂😂❤

Make it happen :eyes:

I'd be surprised if someone hasn't done it already lol

That's exactly what I thought it was going to be. I was like, whaa Martin is posting memes now? That's so unlike him.

Never has Big Ben has fallen silent for so long; not during war, not during previous repairs. So now we will hear the last mid-day KZfaq hit for some time.

Yeah! Let’s blow up the Parliament while it’s playing the song!

Well I guess if you're going to be messing around with time a clock tower is a good place to start.

I think that rooms called the playing cabin

To quote old Ben Kenobi, "From a certain perspective..."

Off topic but do you know what plane that is

My exact thoughts! It must have been the coolest freaking thing for Martin!

See the video Carillon, a tower with 100 tons of bells. The KZfaqr who presented this got a great grounding in carillon history, then the Carillonneur played the KZfaqr's song Rain which was off the charts awesome. I love carillons and think it's great when they are used to play something other than religious or patriotic music. They are for public music, and playing something fun is not too much to ask.

This instrument going from historical to hysterical if you play sabaton the last stand (used in DEUS WULT meme)

sameeeee

I never tear up at anything, but this is the closest I have ever come. the entire video I just got happier and happier, and then I heard the song. wow! just wow.

I totally agree!

Jonah Beale I can agree with this

I have never seen him reply to someone, your comment is almost the top comment in the comment section

Jonah Beale sounds awful

You could probably play it with a plank of wood and it'd still sound great

😂😂😂😂😂😂this made me burt in laughter

only to troll the rest of the church, which collapsed in 1674.

The Domtoren is 638 years old :)

Amazing that she can maintain rhythm when the mechanism runs a few seconds behind.

tactileslut thats because her ears run a few seconds behind ha ha haha ha No

Think of it this way, you climb a high hill to get to your instrument, then you punch and kick several dozen bells into submission! Aside from being amazing musicians, I'm sure most carillonneurs are in great shape! If I arm wrestled one of them, I'd be concerned about being driven through the table!

@@vilstef6988 Basically they're having a workout by going to work as a musician, how rad is that? 😂 Even I can't get through the top while panting heavily midway.

@@oddpotato4038 Yeah, rad and awesome-and the sound of the bells too! There are some videos of concerts from the Dom Tower. I've put the Abba and another one on my Pinterest. I think you might enjoy a vid called Carillon a tower with 100 tons of bells. This is about the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel Carillon at the University of Chicago. I have lots of comments on it. I've watched and re watched the video it's so enthralling. You can search by the title I gave, and I think the channel owner's name is Rob Scannon. He's a huge music nerd like Wintergatan, and he has lots of videos. Joey Brink the Carillonneur also played a piece by Rob called Rain. Seriously cool. Rob has lots of different versions of Rain on his channel. Great guy-I'd like to meet him!

this was the best end ever !!

the good news is that unless you make a sudden pause after the mistake, nobody would notice, unless it's a music critic convention in the town on that day.

@@wiseconqueror533 I'm sure every caretaker has stories about their first public gaff. I bet the town's probably light hearted about it as well.

I've been assured this is a normal fear of carillonneurs. One of them in a KZfaq interview, (Joey Brink of the University of Chicago) made light of this, saying when playing the carillon, you are the most public performer while being the most anonymous player. An amusing but true answer.

you could manage to play an entire piece wrong and someone who has no music knowledge wouldn't care if it sounded good

Dutch engineering at it's finest. Also it gives us the bragging rights for inventing worlds largest music instrument.

It's insanely beautiful. Imagine figuring out that clock tower, both mechanism and the building itself.

Carillon's are still built all the time. It is extremely easy to make with modern technology but not cheap though. They are amazing instruments.

this might sound racist(well it's how it is so don't blame me for making it racist) but you could probably cut down on the money u use on construction workers by using both illegal immigrants and Chinese who just lost there under minimum wage factory job... they'll both do anything to keep their job, including almost nailing their own hand to a brick. one bcuz they can stay in the country while they build it and the other just cuz of the money.
