My orchestra teacher had a really old violin that broke but you can put it together so it can stay a little so everybody was taking and then he said “IM SO SICK AND TIERED OF THIS TALKING” then picked up the broken violin and ‘broke it in two’ he whole room was silent for like 3 minutes till he screamed APRIL FOOLS
I am probably your concertmaster's age, and I have to say that it's one of the BEST April Fool's jokes I've ever seen! When the violin went flying, I cringed, thought maybe someone ought to get a "real" grown-up (as I thought he was throwing a real two-year-old sort of tantrum), and began to plan the violin's funeral with full 21 gun salute in honor of its untimely death. Great job, guys!
Lol my teacher did this but he didn’t throw a violin he just gave like 5 kids referrals and one of the “actors” was laughing but it looked like she was crying so we were very confused.
I know I'm late seeing this video, after all I only found it in 2018. But!! What a wonderful orchestra teacher! Not that my own teacher was bad, she was great, albeit, that was back in '78. Mr. Tolias should be given kudos for showing what a teacher should be: FUN!!
BritishTexan my HS class, 1974 had such a director. He was Mr Rauso, and directed marching band (We were terrific- much better than the actual football team!) and orchestra and on stage band, and even a Jazz band. Years after I left high school, I realized the PATIENCE, dedication and humor that good music teachers have....By the way, a guy named Rich and I carried the French horn section for like, over 5 years and he and I both now have hearing loss- nothing serious, and we don't know if all those rehearsals contributed....maybe?
I regularly tap the stand or click my fingers so my students have an idea to the beat - not all of them watch the white stick. Once they’re used to the tempo I work on the music.
I believe the modern conductor's baton developed from a huge cane that the conductor used to tap on the ground to give the beat (16th or 17th century). Maybe I am the victim of another april fool's joke, though. Anybody know better?
I recognized the song they were playing at about 3:00 instantly. I didn't even need them to keep going, I instantly knew it was the amazing Jupiter! Woo!
Don't feel bad, even my dog got so bored. This is one of those vids you'll find out later when they apply for job and search for their names in ALL platform.
Near the end you bombard us with all these names. How are we supposed to know who those people are? Mr. Tolias is obviously the director, but who is Carly? Why should I care about the two people that pissed themselves? Is it part of the joke? I don't get it.
he probably made this for his friends, and/or one of his friends reposted after he did and just added it to youtube for views. it's not really made just for everybody
Ben - Well, like Mason says, it was probably made for friends and it is enough to understand that the names belonged to orchestra members, it does not matter that we cannot know who is who.
I’m confused... first I thought the kids were pranking the teacher by playing the wrong song, but he seemed ok with the song so then I assumed they were pranking him by playing poorly on purpose, and then I wasn’t sure at all
My stand partner actually broke a school violin 3 times. 3 different ones It was done in a funny manner but the teacher was pissed lol That's why I never let anyone near my violin since I have my own violin I bought
You could say that prank was really well orchestrated
Ba-dum tssssssss
I got a heart attack when he threw the fake violin
for real I was about to blast back in time and catch it, then wack him upside the head with it to knock some sense into him
Me too
Lauren,me too
I was like “ what the fuk”
Then how are you still alive
ikr it should have been a real viola 😡

I have a broken clarinet that I really want to do this with....
_looks excitedly at the broken classical guitar in the club storage room_
Now that's a director I'd like to have.
I saw a video of that on RUclips I think, when everyone was silent did someone say oh my god?
@@Joe-km5ou Oh? You broke my violin? Instead of punishing me you've broken my violin?

I thought the joke was their bad playing....
A long shot where the joke is based on someone having their back to the camera doesn't really do it for me .
Jacob Kilgore I wanna see you play.
You seem like a really nice person🖕
Jacob Kilgore boi u xant play one so shut up
izBeau77 haha
how you gone play moonlight sonata on what should be one of *the most lighthearted and funny videos*
i thought it was normal too- lol-
but the breaking of violins i would've been pissed at, especially since i have no insurance on my violin
Thank god, it was a fake violin.
Human Melz Isi
I was about to cry about it
Like wtf

Well that was "violin"t!

I hate you....
But still funny

Chandler Menard bahaha 😂😂
Lol my teacher did this but he didn’t throw a violin he just gave like 5 kids referrals and one of the “actors” was laughing but it looked like she was crying so we were very confused.
jupiter by holst
8K8 hi
Both the teacher and the students will never forget this for the rest of their life's. We all had the one teacher we will never forget.
For everyone asking what the piece was, it was Darude - Sandstorm
God no whyyyyy
The first piece they started playing was Jupiter bringer of jollity by Gustav Holst.
Azarius it was Jupiter by Gustavo Holst
I don’t see anyone asking that
It was jupiter: the planets by gustav holst
I know I'm late seeing this video, after all I only found it in 2018. But!! What a wonderful orchestra teacher! Not that my own teacher was bad, she was great, albeit, that was back in '78. Mr. Tolias should be given kudos for showing what a teacher should be: FUN!!
BritishTexan I didn't get the prank

@my candy review...
haha me neither! I had to go dig through a bunch of comments to figure it out! >.
same
Try being late 2022??!!
“Mrigank was glad he wasn’t yelling at the cellos” I relate
“Was just glad he wasn’t yelling at the cellos” MEEEEE lol
Sorry but if a conductor constantly beats time with his baton on the stand it's him that's the joke.
Sometimes its good for practice to help everyone hear the beat
Spoken like someone who probably hasn't ever worked with a high school group.
I regularly tap the stand or click my fingers so my students have an idea to the beat - not all of them watch the white stick. Once they’re used to the tempo I work on the music.
I believe the modern conductor's baton developed from a huge cane that the conductor used to tap on the ground to give the beat (16th or 17th century). Maybe I am the victim of another april fool's joke, though. Anybody know better?
So either you haven't been in a advanced orchestra or something because our conductor does this
Did anyone else notice the hugging everyone?
I recognized the song they were playing at about 3:00 instantly. I didn't even need them to keep going, I instantly knew it was the amazing Jupiter! Woo!
Your bitter sarcasm cannot make Bruce Lee cry
*Plot twist* he grabbed the wrong kids violin
Not him asking them if they knew it was a joke because nobody laughed 💀
The song they were playing is names JUPITER by G. Holst
a typical Day in orcheatra
*piano starts playing*
"Kevin thought it was normal" 😂😂😂😂
Those chairs tho
They’re playing Jupiter the bringer of Jollity. Good song
Wait who is pranking who? I got confused XD
Louisa danczy Its mr Tolias and James pranking the rest
Don't feel bad, even my dog got so bored. This is one of those vids you'll find out later when they apply for job and search for their names in ALL platform.
Louisa danczy james
aso it was a bad prank
I would've been one of those that would be shocked and had been worried about his violin.
"Mrigank was glad he wasn't yelling at the cellos" XD
Gotta love hearing it in 1 ear
Omg any orchestra teacher would flip out over that violin or viola (whatever it was) if it was real.
Bayfrex violin violas don’t get to sit first chair
Once had a teacher who slammed somebody's clarinet into the wall because they put it on the ground
Omg! I'm playing this song for orchestraaaa! My teacher would get so irradiated if we did this🤣
piece they were playing was "Jupiter" by Gustav Holst
but the violin....
7 minutes and 59 seconds of my life I will NEVER GET BACK.
Jupiter by Gustav Holst
my left ear enjoyed this video
Of course Kevin thought it was normal
YOU HAVIN A PARTY HERE!?😠
yes sir we are😐
O.....OK😠😑😐
I once had a band director who, during the middle of us being judged during a song, mimed shooting herself in the head when we messed up.
Christ, that's a difficult song! I envy you guys!
thanks for the prank upload
And to this day they are still finding bits of the fake violin
Jupiter! The Planets! Gustav Holst!
My Strad. is crying with relief….
Am I the only one that wants to know what piece they’re rehearsing? It sounds dope
Gustav Holst - Jupiter
This is Gustav Holst the Planets they try to play. Nr 4. Jupiter.
Fucking love the moonlight sonata
I physically winced when he threw the fake violin.
That hurt my soul.
When does it start?
Matt Weiman 4:40
When hell freezes over.
4:40
never
I remember that relax music back in China. All em memories
This guy seams like a tribble teacher
The Planets is a pretty tall order for a high school orchestra.
my left ear was having a wonderful time.
Where is the part where they play MII CHANNEL THEME? RUclips said it was there...
they were in shock!
The cake should've exploded. Now that would've been funny!! Now before you start, not violent enough to hurt anyone, just enough to make a mess.
The poor guys reaction to his instrument being broken xD
Near the end you bombard us with all these names. How are we supposed to know who those people are? Mr. Tolias is obviously the director, but who is Carly? Why should I care about the two people that pissed themselves? Is it part of the joke? I don't get it.
he probably made this for his friends, and/or one of his friends reposted after he did and just added it to youtube for views. it's not really made just for everybody
Mr. Monge is way better
Ben - Well, like Mason says, it was probably made for friends and it is enough to understand that the names belonged to orchestra members, it does not matter that we cannot know who is who.
I watched to the end.... nice ending with class guys :)
That poor violin tho
I wanna know what song was being played at like 3:00, it sounds nice
Piper Snell
Jupiter by Gustav Holst
I guess you could say this prank was pretty ORCHESTRATED, ha ha ha okay i'll go now.
Those chairs......
what kind of toaster did you use to record this?
Gabriel Perez the XD5.
wish it was louder. i was pretty made when that violin was thrown.
This is the songs mars
My band plays Primordium which is based off of this song
you should hear the Portsmouth symphony only on you tube.
That is quite a difficult piece of music....
When he threw the violin I laughed...
omg I thought the prank was their bad playing lmao
Oof his baton
Why Moonlight Sonata in the background - it is too sad ☹️ 😔
no audio was it that bad that the mic just was like fuck this
I love Jupiter Bringer if Jollity
5:00 woahh calm down
*Depressing setup intensifys*
Ummm...i wish my director would try to throw my violin across the room -.-
XD! OMG this would have made me so scared. I would have been about to cry
I know this was a prank, but as a violinist this made me wince
It made me wince, too, and I'm just the stage manager for our community orchestra. But I'm sharing this to our conductor.
as a viola player , it made me wince
Fed up waiting , I’m gone.
Guess you had to be there...
I would still be pissed
I’m confused... first I thought the kids were pranking the teacher by playing the wrong song, but he seemed ok with the song so then I assumed they were pranking him by playing poorly on purpose, and then I wasn’t sure at all
*Sad Piano music enters*
Me: Miss Simian?
so how did noone notcie it was a fake violin?
put that sound on both channels, even if mono ! ! ! ! !
3:27 gustav holst's jupiter.
Okay what happened to the violin?
Very funny. I liked it.
The Instrument. . . 😢😭
There’s a difference between a prank and disrespect. Not disrespect for so called hierarchy, but bullying for someone trying to do his job. Not cool !
What is that piano song I’m hearing at the start of the video?
Ok but why in my recommended youtube?
My stand partner actually broke a school violin 3 times. 3 different ones
It was done in a funny manner but the teacher was pissed lol
That's why I never let anyone near my violin since I have my own violin I bought
what's the point if ur not gonna put the orchestra sound
Lmao who's paying for the violin that's my question
What song where they playing
YEET
