YOU LAUGH YOU LOSE (Classical Music Edition) 

"Doctors have way too much time on their hands." Sudden dark overtones, March, 2020.

the flute-piano girl probably wasn't faking because the piece she played was in a pretty high octave (which you only need one hand to play) so hats off to that girl

6:15 The fact that this was an april fools prank, the balloon was actually filled with air not helium and that guy can actually hit that high note himself makes me think about life :|

for those of you who don't know anything about singing: any kind of vocalization, especially opera is meant to be largely stationary. the fact that that singer did a cartwheel and stayed on any kind of pitch is incredibly impressive.

When that lady gripped her dress after taking off her scarf I thought she was going to take it off 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The thing with the helium is funny like a bit, but it sounds unbelievably good.

Two things: 1- That helium thing was hilarious! 2- That water faucet and the violinist was actually sounding very good! That faucet has talent 😂

1:42 I think it’s life stages. Born as a violin, then grows to a viola, cello is the adult stage and double bass is the elderly who’s retired and on the easy life road 😂

I play flute so I actually checked the notes and yes, it is possible that she could have played those notes with one hand 👍🏻

"That's a G".... "IT'S GOT A BEAT"

The most traumatizing musical moment in my life was during a school concert. we had practiced at the tempo we were supposed to play at at the concert, but when my music teacher was announcing to the audience he had said we would play it at 200bpm and it surprised a classmate of mine and he started playing exceedingly fast causing everyone to go along with him and i must say it sounded like a severe train wreck. Then after the embarrassment of already playing bad we sat next to the strings players and the played after us and literally sounded like heaven, i wanted to die of embarrassment the entire time i had to sit on stage 1 hour after finishing.

07:19 The cartwheel during the high note actually makes sense in the story. It's from the opera "Die Fledermaus" by Johann Strauss II. The cartwheel doesn't necessarily makes sense in this one particular aria (called "Mein Herr Marquis"), but it definitely makes sense in the character's second aria "Spiel ich die Unschuld vom Lande" or "Adele's audition aria", because she's asking someone to sponsor her acting career and is showing off her skills.

The video where the girl gets hit with the percussion mallet happened at my university, so when I attended an honour band there, the prof introduced her to us as “mallet girl”. Always in my memory.

'Percussion is very dangerous.' As a percussionist, I can confirm as I have gotten hit with sticks and mallets multiple times.

9:44 I can't get over that little cloud of rosin that appears when it hits the floor. Peak magnificence.

3:18 Look at the guy on the top left. Lmfao he definitely noticed and was trying so hard to hold in his laugh 💀 🤣

3:45” the rest of the orchestra is oblivious" the rest of the orchestra is always oblivious to us percussionists unless the maestro yells at us rip

How much rosin did that guy have on his bow lol. There was a huge white cloud when it hit the ground.

7:25 I'm sorry, I lost it at the opera singer. Her face is just so excited for what she's about to do, and she totally nails it. Then the tromboner after--I couldn't even finish the clip I had tears in my eyes!

Polish guy playing alongside the faucet me: wooohhh Polish guy takes it to the next level me: this bops eddy: "when the faucet is more in time then your cellos and string quartet" me: oooohhhhhhhhhh lmaoooo

ive seen that helium video 100 or so times before but i have NEVER noticed the guys face on the opposite side XD

“Doctors have so much time on their hands” DOCTORS: *laughs in endless hours and inconsistent and/or non-existent breaks* Lol

that boy with the cymbals had a dad in the army his mom was really proud of him for this reason

OK, but for anyone who's actually wondering, the singers gargling champagne and doing cartwheels are doing the aria from Johann Strauss commonly known as "Adele's Laughing Song" from his operetta, "Die Fledermaus." This is a very popular gala piece, and as the material is very light-hearted and humorous, people often like to have fun with it, as people won't get offended by it like one might if you tried that with more serious material. For anyone who wants to get into operas, "Die Fledermaus" is actually a really good one to get started with, as it is absolutely hilarious and full of famous excerpts.

That polish guy playing to the tap made me cry laughing because everything in Poland is so broken but it’s so good

*Doesn’t laugh a video* * but laughs uncontrollably at Bret’s comments*

When that lady did the cartwheel we all were like “why”

As for the flute playing footage, this is possible. It is playing with harmonic techniques. It means that with the same fingering, the player can make it sound several different notes depending on the technique of blowing in the air.

6:55 That salute was cymbalic

"When the faucet is more in time than the cellist in your string quartet" Hehe- hueHuA nOW WAIT A SECOND-

The one at 8:50 has to be live, because you can hear the piano accompanist jumping around a bit to figure out where the violin is and match its pace, and then the pianist just gave up!

I love the cloud of dust when that player around 9:40 slams the bow down. That's how you add emphasis right there.

3:20 just imagine like the reason she walked off is it happened during rehearsal and she’s just like NOT AGAIN JOSH WTF WE PRACTICED THIS COME ON

In 10:03 man said "Koncert na kran i skrzypce" in Polish. That means " Tap and violin concert". To all those people who don't understand ^^ .

As a trumpet player i have to say, 11:35 is actually more impressive than the actual piece

Girls locker room: DiD u SeE aShLeYs NeW hAiRcUt? Boys locker room 10:38

in my mind Violin= baby Viola= teen Cello=adult Bass= elderly

Instruments aren’t made, they’re born

I'm so grateful for "koncert na kran i skrzypce"

im pretty sure the flutist wasnt lying. i checked the fingerings for her piece and u can actually do it with one hand with alternate fingerings. points to her for creativity and knowing the piano part

7:33 i didnt even know cart wheeling in a dress and heels was possible

6:12 when you're an alto and you know there's a high g coming up

My Favrouit part was when that lady did the cartwheel and she was wearing HIGH HEELS

Last time I was this early, ling ling was still playing a 1/2 size violin

As a percussionist I can confirm that percussion instruments and sticks are weapons and they can hurt people pretty bad lol. I stabbed a friend with my drumsticks once

“Did you laugh? Did you lose? Or did you maintain composure?” *What’s composure? Never heard of her.*

10:42 They started acting like chickens ;v;

The violinist with the water tap accompanying him was simply superb! 😊👍🏼

9:46 can we admire how much rosin came out of the bow when he dropped it.

10:23 Brett and Eddy: Vibing to the music Me: Also vibing to the music.

If a baby cries after childbirth, it means that the baby is good, airway is good, and should be functioning properly until other tests are done to make sure. Sometimes they dont cry immediately, so docs might provide some stimulation. Idk if there is a better answer around

And the octobass gives birth to the double bass

The flute one at 2:31 can be done with only one hand by playing harmonics. It is probably real

I cannot be the only person who has loved the way opera sounds since childhood

7:50 me: trying to sing

10:04 guy says "Concert for tap and violin!" Greetings from Poland, boys haha

The opera lady with the bottle kinda sounded like Bret trying to sing opera

i'm a cellist, public sch. music teacher, retired, (can play a tune, on trumpet, trombone, violini, flute, viiola, clarinet, ) and I LOVE the episodes you present, and love the fact of your personal sense of pitch, and rhythm, and sight reading ability- so SO IMPORTANT to a good musician, just found you, and love all i have seen...

Brett: Okay, don't laugh. * bow drops on time * Brett and Eddy: * instant laughter *

"Doctors have way too much time on their hands" Corona: let me fix that ;(

That Polish guy in 10:10 was awesome hahaha

My parents when they try to wake me up: 0:41

4:20 this man is in physical pain

10:00 It means "Concerto for a faucet and violin" Greetings from Poland 😜

Brett: *"Yeah, don't laugh."* - puts on serious face. 2 seconds later, both: *"PFFFTHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH!"*

the dude playing the violin in the bathroom with the sink is awesome !!!

Whenever I don’t think it’s funny, they laugh and explain, and the explanation makes me laugh so hard 😂

One of my favorite channels even tho i dont play violin

10:20 I've never been more proud of my nation before

2:45 Oh, look! I captured Ling Ling on camera!

10:50 As a cellist, who has always really struggled with keeping time… I feel attacked by the accuracy of Eddy’s comment XDXDXD

3:12 that percussion gave her a concussion

I was once holding my laughter in while watching a concert and i was trying so hard i farted.... I should have laughed

5:42 as a person who is dedicated to choir and choral music, i find this section to be completely hilarious, especially with the concept of someone using helium in a balloon in a live performance

11:12 I thought that was Brett and Eddy but then I restarted it and noticed they didn’t have their mouthed open so I just burst out laughing *Put ‘F’ in the chat to say R.I.P.*

6:46 And here we have the best recovery in history ladies and gentlemen

they pretend to be classica musicians but dont even know that a cello gives birth to a violin which then matures into a viola and then into another cello pffft

I died when the drumstick flew out of the percussionist’s hand and hit his colleague 😂😂😂😂😂

9:22 Brett: I think I've seen this before. Don't laugh. Also Brett: *bursts out laughing

*twoset*: this is you laugh you lose Also twoset: proceeds to laugh at EVERY video

"Percussion is a very dangerous section" ~the times where I tried to make my senior deaf using cymbals

The last orchestra video had me laughing literal tears. Just The amount of effort that has to have gone into it and it sounds absolutely hilarious

this was just lovely to listen to

3:03 As a flutist, I can confirm that all the notes she played can be played with one hand, i.e. only pressing the keys with the left hand. I am just doubting about the stamina and how she can maintain focus and the vibrato and the tone colour whilst doing the piano at the same time. also, with the E flat, it shouldn't sound this nice if you only play it with the keys on the left hand (you normally also involve right hand to give a better tone, but it is possible to sound the note out with only the left hand keys.) Anyways, I feel like it is staged coz I dont think there'd be a piece that's entirely consisted of notes that can be played with only the left hand keys, i,e. D, G, Bb, B, A, C (, Eb).

“It’s not even funny, but it’s funny” Eddy chan - 2019

I lost miserably 😂 the Miserere with helium and the concert for water tap and violin were just outstanding!

I lost! Anything with falling will hit me! The cymbal one and the drum mallet one were great!!

I always wonder how the musicians feel when their memed out video gets more views than their actual performance they worked hours for... can you imagine

Hey guys! The video of Ms. Baik playing the flute and piano at the same time isn’t actually faked. As someone who was at the recital, I should know.

The one with the choir boys & the helium is just one of my all time favorite videos 😂😂😂 I've shown that video to so many people

I'm a percussionist and just wanted to say that we have multiple weapons there in the back. Not only did I hit my colleagues with drum sticks but also my pinky while playing the bass drum on multiple occasions - and let me tell you that rim hurts like shit. And I don't even know how often I tweaked my fingers while shifting the tone indicators on the timpani. Also, for the boy with the cymbals... my highest respect. I would've probably broken down into tears or walked off.

"Doctors have way too much time on their hands" Ooh that sentence will make a lot of people upset

10:04 It's Polish... ,,Koncert na kran i skrzypce" It mean ,,A concert on a tap and violin" XDDD My favorite Poland :')

I just found you guys, And ur literally so entertaining to watch!

I've been playing piano over 5 years a pedal called "Damper Pedal" it makes the piano keys louder and longer to play so the woman is 100% playing

6:00 He wasn't on helium, that was just air in a balloon, it's not behaving right. It was an april fools video by King's College Choir.

One time someones phone went off during a concert and the ringtone was Anaconda. Just let that sink in.

4:28 poor itzhak:(

J'adore celui avec le robinet!

They've ought to do a video on Netflix's _The Umbrella Academy_ eventually.
