I want to thank you guys for these types of videos. I have a music project and i needed to show the four families of instruments in the orchestra being played and your videos are perfect for them. Thank you
The french horn or horn as they want to refer to that now has always been my favorite sound to hear, it's featured in a ton of music scores for movies, but I've heard it's very difficult to play.
Yeah there’s usually 3 or 4 valves (sometimes 5) but I started learning a simpler instrument, the mellophone in my schools marching band which gave me enough experience to start buzzing and making decent noises in the horn, so it’s mostly just practice and memorization that help you get better.
if I were to compare the brass instruments to the string instruments by the sound and tone to them trumpet - violin french horn - viola trombone - cello tuba - double bass
Hani Al I'm a euphonium player, and bass instruments aren't actually that hard. It's easier for me to hit an F on a euphonium than trumpet, and wind capacity usually isn't a big problem because it's so easy to change notes with such little wind.
I am a tuba player and it was hard st first because of the size. Well...in the video the range that the player is playing is the basic range. Tubas can play lower than a piano (E lower than the A string) and can also play the highest note that a flute can play, which is a C.
I went ahead and liked all of the euphonium comments (the ones that were spelled correctly at least). I see this too often. There's a video that introduces 'all' of the brass instruments, yet it NEVER mentions euphonium. That bothers the heck out of me.
Is this saying something troubling about brass players? I'm reading the comments and the misspellings and mistakes here are literally worse than the comments on a typical hip hop video.
