As a pianist - I love orchestra. It's just that chances you will see one decreases with every instrument added. Piano in quartet is already quite uncommon =p
As a clarinetist, this is completely true. I am a ginger, my middle school band director (a clarinetist) is also ginger, my high school band director (another clarinetist) is blonde, a clarinet professor I've been working with is ginger, my private instructor is Asian, one of my closer friends who also plays clarinet is Asian, the only other clarinet currently is my high school band is blonde, and the principle clarinet in my youth symphony is ginger. This video has really made me rethink band stereotypes.
Your comment on the cymbals just really cracked me up. Your comment on Celeste is most apt (it's one of my favourites). You've left a lot of instruments out, though. Love organs, but not Catholic. Anglican. Respect for Bach, but not my favourite.
I definitely see lots of evidence supporting the idea of tuba players being overweight. But as a tuba player, I eat almost 6000 calories a day and am over 20 pounds under a healthy weight. I think I'm just an exception. Bass clef gang.
Three things I want to say to this: 1. I love videos like this!!! 2. That joke with triangle and Bernstein was very intelligent ;) 3. Why should I destroy your life as a flautist :( (weren't you a flautist?!?)
1 Thank you🙌🏻 2 😉 3 I mean, that the flautist would destroy your life, that's a meme I heard somewhere and I believe it to be true because a lot of flautists can be quite harsh, and yes I'm studying flute as well😂
As a bassist, i can confirm your statement. We do want to shove on people’s faces that we play the bass and that it is inherently the superior instrument.
I love the oboe for its unique and angelic sound! The way ravel uses them is amazing. I’m also into video game music in which I like how yoko Shimomura and nobuo uematsu incorporate them a lot in their music too
Right! Plus harp is NOT an easy instrument to master. It's always funny to me when wind players shade harp lol. It's like seriously? I'm a wind player myself and used to date a harpist at conservatory, so I can tell you, those ladies (and a few men) are freaking super talented and dedicated
I'll take it. I mean, he's not far off about the jazz club thing, or Paris for that matter. A lot of black jazz saxophonists left America because they felt stifled and discriminated against. Oh, God. I just realized that one of my favorite saxophonists, Eric Dolphy fits the bill perfectly.
@@EvansYamou 🙋😅🤣It strictly means belonging to a particular key or major scale. ie no notes or accidentals outside the key. In a less strict sense it means not veering too far from the key or it's Diatonic partners. It also normally implies tonal harmony as opposed to modal or blues harmony. Folk, country pop and kids music is normally diatonic. Jazz, Classical, and Film music is often not diatonic music.
As someone who played Tuba (and Sousaphone in marching band), it keeps you in shape. That thing is heavy, especially the Sousaphone, so there's no room for rotundity.
I play bassoon. I personally am only scared of playing the Rite of Spring because of how high it is. For a competition, I am playing a different solo by Stravinsky (Berceuse from the Firebird) and I love it. I’m not afraid of Stravinsky’s music I’m general, I’m just afraid of the Rite of Spring.
I play piano, celesta, organ and harpsichord in several orchestras and it's the best thing ever! Us pianists don't have any problems with orchestral stuff
@@AnimTunes you’re good 😂 the violin is tuned a fifth higher than the viola. The viola is slightly larger than a violin and therefore much more difficult to play quickly, but many people greatly prefer the deeper, richer tones of the viola over the violin when playing repertoire from the romantic era for example. I’d recommend searching “Timothy Ridout Ralph Vaughan Williams Suite for Strings” on RU-vid or Spotify for an example
As someone who plays several different instruments, i feel like it would be unfair to pick a favourite child- but I hit like as soon as Viola came up 😅 As a flautist and cellist I appreciate being called intimidating and hot though I really don't agree with those stereotypes 😄 As a violinist and a singer- This is why I am the viola stereotype!! 😩 As a pianist- nah uh, not true! (Probably because it's not my main instrument) And piccolo kinda has to be included in my favourite instruments group as I use to play it when I was still in school but sadly don't have my own piccolo. I have the teddy i named piccolo though 😊 But now you've heard of someone who has piccolo among their favourite instruments!! And ahem, where are recorder and panflute!? Also my very Protestant, Dutch reformed, organ playing relatives would be disapproving of the organ stereotype 😂
As a violinist, pianist and cellist, I believe Cellists are actually super attractive in my sinfonic orchestra 🥲 Violinist do think they are better at everything.. (WE ARE)... and I love classical music
