NEW INSANE HARD Euphonium Solo "The King's Gambit" by Matonizz. Sheet Music Play Along
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2024
- Happy Monday Family! We have a Brand New amazing Euphonium Solo with Piano for you today, "The King's Gambit" by yours truly. This piece was commissioned by Fabien Décaillet as a gift for his newborn son, Alexis. "The King's Gambit" is aimed at including elements of modern progressive style alongside a more standard virtuosic euphonium style commonly featured in traditional euphonium repertoire. The compositional style focuses on complex and highly syncopated rhythmical grooves with a minimalist harmonic style, found in modern-day rock and pop music. The piece demonstrates extreme range, finger dexterity, coordination of multiple-tonguing techniques, flexibility, and breath control which are normally expected in academic repertoire.
The game (and the piece) is divided into three major sections which correlate to stages and specific moves in a chess match.
1) Opening: 1.e4 e5 2.f4...
2) Middlegame, including Queen Sacrifice (cadenza section)
3) Endgame
The overarching design of the piece is shown in the interplay between the euphonium and the piano. In the early stages of the piece (the game), the piano trade blows, but everything shifts at the Queen Sacrifice with the euphonium taking dominance in the game. The Endgame plays out the euphonium’s attaining a position so strong that Checkmate# is inevitable.
Included with the piano score are parts for Solo Euphonium in treble and bass clefs.

I’m a High school sophomore and I’ve been playing the euphonium for about 5 years now and you have shocked me with how well you played that and how well you articulated those notes. You are truly a talented player and I hope to be like you sometime in the future
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed the piece!
Me toooo, but for 7 years... I wish I can play it like him one day...
Another sophomore high schooler here! His articulation is something I cannot describe.
Also a sophomore lol. I got some pretty good accomplishments under my belt and sometimes think I’m as good as I can be. This video shows me how much better you can be. Insane runs and super notes are just crazy to me at this point. Hopefully I can reach this level soon🙏
sophomore aswell, I plan on learning this and playing it for a senior year band competition. still trying to learn it. Good job man, sounds great.
Outstanding intonation and precise tonguing young man!! Very difficult piece but well managed!! Keep inspiring others to challenge themselves with "our" solo performer...the wonderful euphonium. 👍
Thank you very much Darrell, appreciate your kind words friend!
Darrell Wiliams how can I get in touch with you? @colalew
@@colabolabooks that your email? better not
@@Matonizz I think I’m going to be as good as you one day
2:16 crushed my soul in a good way. I don’t even play euphonium I play tuba, but that is the most beautiful lick I’ve ever heard on a brass instrument. Phenomenal job composing this piece, and even more playing it.
just wait until you hear 5:38
Where do I start! Brilliant piece, even more brilliantly played. The range, the skips , the everything was unbelievable. The technicalities of this piece and the way it was played is historical! It's almost humorous to think about the invitation to download and play along on this one....I can think of maybe 2 people on earth who would be able to play this incredible piece! The musicality expressed by this piece is beyond amazing! Bravo, my friend!!
Very kind of you Bill. Appreciate your nice words and glad to hear you enjoyed the composition friend!
Oh my goodness! Wow! Very Well done Matonizz. You play so effortlessly. Outstanding Job!
Thank you very much Dominic, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for comment as usual!
This is one of the most outstanding euphonium performances i have ever heard! As an euphonium player myself i couldn't keep a straight face, the precision, tone, over all control over you instrument left me speechless
Thank you very much JoJo, appreciate your kind comment friend
I listened to this arrangement more than 20 times by now, just to be able to grasp every detail of it. As a brass player myself, i don't want to use the word talent here, as it would be an insult to the sheer determination and training you put in to reaching THAT level. The clockwork like precision while playing the fast passages, every movement you and your instrument make has purpose and nothing is random, the movement through the registers and you deliver the slow passages with such clarity, that is virtuous playing, i knew i was in for a ride hearing that jump at bar 20. Thank you so much for letting us witness this brilliant piece and playing
Thank you very much for such a detailed and kind comment friend. Glad to hear people are enjoying the piece and the interpretation. :)
Happy Monday Family! Excited to share my latest composition "The King's Gambit" with you, generously commission by Fabien Décaillet. Hope you enjoy and don't forget to show love and support by sharing, liking and commenting. Sheet Music & Piano Backing Tracks Available for Download at www.matonizz.com/product/the-kings-gambit/
Have a great week friend!
Could you make a peice for a mid range
Really Low g# to high F and fastest I can play is 16th notes
I've been looking for people to make commissions but this piece is simply brilliant.
@@avr1860 Hi AVR, apologies for such a late response. Only saw your comment now. If you're interested in commissioning a piece, I could definitely write something within that criteria. If you're interested, feel free to email me at matonizzproduction@gmail.com and I'll be happy to provide you with more detail. Best, M
@@Matonizz Thank you I will get in touch once I have time.
Fabulous piece and playing. Well done. I'm a former Euphonium player with the US Navy Band from the 1970's. Every aspect of your playing was world-class. Congratulations!
Thank you very much Shannon, very kind of you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Another euphoniumist here and I have to say that this is just beautiful
Thank and appreciate you leaving a nice comment!
Holy effing hell. I've been playing the euph for 43 years, and that's far edge stuff. Out-damned-standing.
One of the best compositions for euphonium that I've ever heard of! Thanks for the music! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
this makes me amazed and to be honest thanks to musicians like these is the reason why i love the euphonium
I’m absolutely blown away at how pure your sound is on this instrument good god do I love music
I haven't played the euphonium/baritone in 15 years, but I love listening to your uploads. As much as I would love to pick it up again, I have far too many commitments, but it is so wonderful being able to listen to someone as talented as yourself. I played for almost ten years in concert and marching. It brings me great warmth and nostalgia hearing such a mastery of what I aspired to be in my younger days. Learning to read music is something I will always hold near to my heart and taught me such an appreciation for the nonverbal language. Thank you for sharing!
Watching you play has, in a way, revitalized my love for the instrument. I used to perform in college, but somewhere along the way just stopped. I hope to get back into playing the euphonium again. Thank you so much.
A very fly or die vibe coming from this piece, but I'm ngl this one do be bangin 🔥
This was incredible, I will use this performance to show off the beauty of this instrument to my music students from nw on, thank you for sharing this with us.
On first watch I was GLUED to the score! Seeing queens sacrifice come up was terrifying....
Really excellent solo
You are quite literally the greatest player I have ever seen this is beyond incredible I don’t know how you do it
Wow, stunning control, intonation and range 😊
Probably the best sounded euph I’ve ever heard, keep it up man
First words I'm thinking "DAMN". This is insanely well played. Such beautiful intonation. Now to listen to it another 3 million times!
Fellow Euphomium player here.
Wonderful story telling and very inspiring piece that you have written here.
and i 'hate' how easy you make it seem, cause i know just how much skill it takes to get to that point.
thanks for putting all this wonderful music out there.
Not a SINGLE missed note with perfect dynamics tone and looks
And being my instrument
No one can be your equal matonizz
Inspirational and so so so so so so so so so so so BEAUTIFUL
Nothing but tears of joy here
And the god of all euphoniums has blessed us with this beautiful song
Your my inspiration matonizz and you keep the dream alive in me and I hope to meet you one day
Love your music sir
Amazing solo, your skills are phenomenal.
You're surely one of the great ambassadors of our beloved Euphonium.
Wish you merry Christmas and all the best and good health in 2024.
Keep up the wonderful work on your Euphonium.
It’s so cool being able to hear the rock riffs that may have inspired this piece. Knocked out of the park again!
Thank you Noah and yes, that's absolutely the background, will be making a band version of this as well :) Glad you enjoyed it!
So fantastic. I loved every minute of this one. Talent is a wonderful word in your case and you have so much of it. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
Thank you so much Sandra, this one took quite a while to get composed and recorded, very glad to hear some nice feedback. Best wishes!
Astonishing. Tone, intonation, agility, precision. Have enjoyed many of your videos this one is one of the best showcases of your talents. And the composition itself is excellent.
WOW!! Incredible! Those low notes itched a part of my soul!
I've been searching for a demonstration of the euphonium's tones and colors, and I've found them in your playing, enough to be inspired to go ahead and purchase my own euphonium. Your technical skills are simply flawless, and mysteriously magnificant! Thank you, Matonizz... New subscriber! Please, stay well!
Dude this was insane! Amazing job!
I play Euphonium since 7th grade, currently in 10th. It amazes me on how GREAT you play. I hope to sound like you someday.
Шикарно!👋 Браво! Изящно и легко сыграна виртуозная пьеса с прекрасным тембром и атакой!!👋
I've played the trombone since 6th grade and now I'm a sophomore on high-school who just learned the euphonium two months ago. I'm excited to see where that goes!
Damn! I've never seen anyone shred on euphonium like that!!! Awesome work, man
This was amazing to hear as well as make me feel more motivated in my practice so I can play this my senior year if I get good enough. Thank you so much
Glad you enjoyed it Aaron!
Just wonderful - thank you.
Cool piece👍The rhythms are very catchy. I'm a big chess fan too so that helps😂 Nice work as usual. Keep it up!
Thank you very much Adam, glad you enjoyed the piece and the chess theme :)
I didnt even realize it was chess themed till i saw this comment.
This is one of my goals to be able to play this in it’s entirely close to this because this is phenomenal. Please keep up the good work because me as a college junior euphonium player pieces like this is what makes me strive to want to keep getting better.
A great person on a great instrument 🖤 love to see this type of stuff
Thank you, glad you enjoyed and truly appreciate you leaving a comment!
Sir what a outstanding playing I am also euphonium player but never be a player as like you. You are not God gifted u r a gift for God. Hats off sir for your playing.
I’m new to euphonium and I’m like “WTH THATS LIKE 5 LEDGER LINES I CAN BARELY PLAY TWO ABOVE THE STAFF-“
Such a lovely tone
Wow! Amazing accuracy and articulation!
What an insane solo!!! It sounds perfectly
Thank you Andy!
Man you guys always inspire me. I learn a lot already by just listening man. Looking at the sheet definitely helps too. Thanks for that. Beautiful sounding! Love the darkness, very theatrical 🤘
Glad you're enjoying and finding our content useful friend. Appreciate your comment!
I’ve been playing music since I was five, now 52 and the Euphonium/Baritone has always been my go to. But I play (8) different instruments and I absolutely love the musicality you’ve offered up here. Articulation, Intonation and Pitch are A-1 brother.
Euphonium is an attractive and difficult instrument. I truly enjoy listening your play.
The groove reminds me of "Fly or Die". B.T.bone solo. I love this so much.
OUTSTANDING !!!!!!!!!!
I love this and I want to learn and and hopefully play it as well as you have
Simply unbelievable good 👍👏👏👏
Bro helped me nail my dci audition last year with a piece so I’m glad he’s still going
OMFG.... This was amazing!!!!
The pedal Ab at 2:53 is absolutely beautiful.
I play tuba, and while I consider myself pretty good I don't even think my tone on that note sounds as good, and it's just a normal low Ab for me!
Beautiful!
Thank you very much John, glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely awesome. Love it!😍😍
Glad to hear Bailey, much appreciate you leaving a kind comment!
Very well played, I've probably listened to this about 20 times already!
Thank you Jaron, glad you enjoyed it!
I watch this all the time and I show my friends you are really professional I am a fellow euphonium player as well going into 9th grade
Wow! Virtuosic playing by the euph-master.
Also your suite looks really James Bond-like, I like it :)
Thanks and yes, kinda what I was aiming for :D
This was so clean, wow
Thank you!
Wow! I don’t know how you get your transitions between octaves so good, but it was absolutely amazing.
Thank you Jelly Bean, appreciate your comment and glad you enjoyed it!
@@Matonizz i recently placed 13 at a major competition because my tone in the high range(F above staff and up) was airy so i was wondering if you have any tips.
@@carsonholloway1 It would be hard for me to give you specific tips without have heard you or knowing you as a player but I would recommend you check my educational video playlist. I've made numerous videos that covers fundamentals of tone development. Hope this helps friend!
Practice lip slurs. Lots and lots of lip slurs, and when you're done. Practice more lip slurs.
Bravo!
INSANE🔥🔥
AMAZING! You truly showcase the capabilities of an euphonium in the hands of a master. Hope your efforts will really challenge other players to dig deeper!
Thank you very much David!
That is actually amazing
This is just brilliant, so clean, unbelievable, Outstanding Job Sir🙏👌🏻
Thank you very much Fabian!
Had to come back here. This is amazingly played and arranged. You inspired me to join band even! Thank you
You have instagram?
@@filliiiii7 no
Wow! Such precise expression and tone! Inspiring!
Thank you very much Wayne, glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your comment!
Wow! Simply wow!
Thank you!
Just wonderful!
Thank you very much Peter!
Incredible. Wow. At a loss for words
Thank you very much!
I subscribed because
1. The music is good
2. Literally no one else plays the euphonium
Brilhante! sensacional!
oh my goodness, that was amazing!:)
This is my second year in the high school band. I play euphonium and I have my first solo in a piece ever. Listening to this has helped get into it more than I expected. Also holy Crap that was incredible.
Thank you!
Wow! Very well articulated and played extremely well. Speechless!!! Just wow!!..
Thank you!
Been listening to this piece in repeat since I found it. Really wish I had the technically ability to play this because it's just so pretty.
Bravo! What style!
Thanks Jason!
Middle is just masterpiece !
Bro this is unbelievable I come across this guy and I’ve never heard of him before and he literally blows me away. I play trombone and I can’t imagine how unbelievably hard this piece must be and i will never know how this guy plays it with a straight face. Kudos to you man you are absolutely insane
Thank you!
That was incredible
Pretty cool
Respect!❤
Thank you!
Very tight and very wonderful.
LOVE THIS!!!
Thank you!
It`s so fucking awesome. It`s the difficultst piece if ever heard. Greetings from Germany!
Thanks Benedetto! Appreciate kind words my friend and glad you enjoyed the piece!
As a ex eupho player I must say for sheer technique this is outstanding. Wonderful playing. As a piece of music, on the other hand it is dreadful. Virtuosity for the sake of it is a tick box exercise. Playing great music with soul is how you are going to remembered
Do u have instagram?
Very nice.
Damn near digital outstanding 🎉
this fire
for sure listening on loop
Nice, thanks a lot!
If I close my eyes, and imagine a chess game (used to play in HS in competition team) I can feel the tension building, and see the agony of surrendering the queen...onlhy to eventually be check-mated! Fantastic!! Kudos to both the pianist and the solist!!
Thank you very much David, glad you enjoyed it!
Gorgeous.
Thank you!
One day I want to be able to play this one. Phenomenal piece!
Glad you enjoyed it Max, thank you for the comment!
Really cool piece! From one euphonium player to another, I admire your skill. You are a very talented player. :)
Thank you friend! Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow!
Fantastic playing!!
And a awesome piece. I have already downloaded the piece.
This i a great Challenge!💪🤩
Thank you Tobias, glad to hear you're excited! Have fun and thanks for the comment!
The euphonium is easily one of the most difficult instruments to learn and master because of its versatility. There is no wind instrument that compares to the demanding efforts of the euphonium. I mean listen. The range and dexterity sounds insane compared to most other wind instruments.
the euphonium is an extremely underrated instrument, which makes me sad
this bops
