So this is how it's supposed to sound...
Tristan Knott wait ._.
Just shit on em then 🤣
Me @-@
lmaooo me. i have this for a solo and i was so off.
@Santino Rudy You're correct. No one cares. As you were. Marimba solo!
Playing this as my first four mallet piece ever at solo and ensemble tomorrow morning! Wish me luck!
I know this is super late, but how did it go?
My first too✌️
I'm learning it as my first 4 mallet piece ever for solo and ensemble in a month
I’m actually in the same exact situation and I’m hoping everything goes well!!
@@zacharywilliams2 he died
Damn. Very impressed by her four mallet rolls. Very fluid and almost not space between. I need to work on it til I can roll like that.
This was my first 4 mallet solo (freshmen year) and boy them blisters..😅
I feel like I made a pretty good leap in skill after that as my sophomore solo was Paul Smadbeck's Rhythm Song and for my junior year I chose his Virginia Tate, which was one of my favorite pieces. That piece gave me some serious blisters lol. The next school day, the head director of my high school calls me into his office and tells me he drove my judge back to the airport (the next city over) after all the performances were over and that all they talked about for the entire drive there was my performance of Virginia Tate. He said I "alone made his trip worth it."
My senior year I played Eric Sammut's Rotations II and IV. I practiced those songs until I could play them backwards and blindfolded. I went in for my performance with nothing but my mallets and the knowledge that I was about to knock it out of the park.
I totally blanked during the best parts of BOTH songs and got my first and ONLY division 2 ratings of my music career.
And that's how I would leave my last year of high school percussion.
I was so wounded, I never recovered.
Tragic
Nice ted talk
Dynamics are so clear and on point. My hat dips to this prodigy.
Excellent playing, and beautiful technique!
Nice to see you here!
I love it too!
This is my first 4-mallets piece. Literally peeled the skin off my hands 🙄
Her dynamics were amazing!
Yolo after the Rain
The solo that literally every marimba player jumps to lol
Why?
Daniele it sounds nice bro
Cause it’s an easy beginning piece that doesn’t sound like crap-
A marimba player that doesnt play this, is like a hero that never travels to the underworld, or a youtuber that never uploads.
@Wyatt I played rain dance this year for an audition and now I’m learning this
thank you for doing this series! a lot of this kind of stuff wasn't available for reference when I was studying.
+Melissa Cantey Glad to hear you like the idea! :-) That's exactly why we wanted to do this. Hope it becomes a valuable resource to students worldwide while learning marimba!
Played this piece last year at solo and ensemble my freshman year and got a 2 at state. The last page is difficult to master, but overall it's a wonderful piece to perform!
My band teacher recommended that I watch your videos. He told me you have some great practice tip videos for percussion. And I'm in percussion, so here I am! Thanks, Mr. Ziegler!
I heard this 3 years ago from one of my favorite percussion members and it’s stuck with me all the way to now, the memories are insane.
I played this piece for my CASMEC All-State Orchestra audition, as well as many others such as college at CSULB. This piece when phrased right is a good choice to get places.
Memories!!
that marimba sound is so beautiful! excellent playing also!
I was 14 when I learned 4 mallets and it was to this! I made Texas All State the next year as a sophomore. I miss the flow!
this song was the soundtrack to lunch in the band room because there was always one kid in front ensemble playing this instead of eating
I’m learning it now! I’m in 8th grade
I'm playing this song for my solo and ensemble piece in Texas! I love it so much and I am constantly watching this video for inspiration.
Lmfao same, my teacher chose it for me and I’m kinda scared
If you have never played this song then who even are you.
RyanD808 i have to play this to get into my advance percussion ensemble
Carson Sivanish cherish it. I'm in college now and wish so bad I could back to playing this song
RyanD808 im a 6th grader and im playing stuff like this so dont complain
You misunderstood Ryan's comment. He was saying that college is hard for him now and that he wished he could go back to the "easy" days of playing this.
someone who knows not to play this song like everyone else at solo/ensemble festivals. at least someone who doesnt want to get a 2
I'm learning this. I got my first four mallet blister ever :(
Damn i remember that, i‘ve been on them for about a year now so good luck :)
welcome to the club
I'm revisiting this video after the many years it's been and the first thing that came rushing back to me was the memories of Yellow After the Rain's blisters. The band-aid necessity was real.
This is really nice. My only comment is that by placing the single softer mallet in the bass, it shifts the phrasing particularly in the ‘lateral’ section and the top voices pop more. I’m not sure this outcome was intentional, and I think it can be phrased organically with four equal hardness mallets, so the bass notes have the same clarity and don’t shift the agogic feel of the pattern. Great job though! 👌🏻
I learnt this 2-3 years back, beautiful piece and beautiful playing! Learnt it with burton grip though(not stevens as shown in video)
Played this for my Grade 8, such a great piece of music!
a senior of mine played this for all district or something and literally every one In my percussion plays this and it gets annoying after a certain amount to of times
0._.0 Life that’s our school but with ghost garden
this series is so helpful! i would like to thank you so much! if i think i’m doing it right i always reverence back to your videos so that i can get it right before playing it for my percussion instructor. sometimes i think i’m playing it right but i’ll be in a different octave, wrong chord, etc so keep making the videos :)))
Was that yellow after the rain I think. I love how it sounds
all my nightmares come true
what? :))
This piece and the Rain dance are very imoprtant in the first year!
Dang, that Musser grip looks epic.
~Great song, great musician!
This was my first ever four mallet piece I did as an eighth grader. It wasn't so hot back then but I'm hoping to try it again soon
Im having so much fun learning this!!!! ❤️🔥🙏🏾🙌🏾
My friend played this when she was in 7th grade back in 2014 and EVERYONE was impressed
Am I the only marimba player who hasn't played this before?! 😂
Eve Donatelli maybe
My class colleagues, they all played this piece and I didn't want to.. The thing is that I eventually ended up know it to sing without learning, playing it by the ear, you know
I haven't either haha. I've been told to stay away since so many people play it.
Zoë Johnson Summer Treehouse 😍😍. I started learning that solo but switched to Rain Dance due to time constraints. Hopefully I'll play summer tree house in college. It's a really cool piece.
Eve nope. I play vibraphone, but same thing. I only know 2 mallets.
It really helps me this stuff! Ty Vic
this and rain dance are probably the two “everyone plays this” solos that the judges will judge harder on
that being said, my freshman year last year when we were picking solos for S&E a senior told me that and so instead i played etude in c# minor and got a good
lol
but this year i’m stepping it up with afta stuba (he played stubernic last year so that’s cool) and rhythm song and now i’ve finally heard this song and i can see how it would get annoying to hear this all the time, although it’s a good piece
Great, about to do this as a solo and ensemble piece, seems fun...
My friend played this for a solo last year and it sounded just like this
Very nice dinamics!
My teacher picked this song for my solo and I’m gonna have such a hard time rolling with two mallets in one hand🤦🏿♂️
It's not as bad as you think bc in this one you are always rolling with both of your hands so you can just alternate like a regular roll
playing this for an audition next week!!
This was one of several obligatory pieces to learn as a freshman in college back
in the day. The Musser Etudes were also in the mix along with others. Memories!
We got sick of hearing this played by so many people. It was kind of a running
joke about everyone playing this. Thanks for posting though. Nice rendition.
I am 10 years old but this song is quite easy and it is a good song to learn!
Wow keep on going man I'm 17 and am struggling hard
Thx
Trying to get this down for my junior year solo, I’ve never played marimba before as I’ve only played snare and set but it’s about time to annoy everyone in my band room
I'm 8th grade. I'm starting to play 4 mallet and I'm starting of with vertical waltz does anyone know of a video if someone playing this.
미쓰없이 깔끔하게 잘 치신다
doing this for my EKU music audition in a month, let's hope i do it as well as this person does
So many people have played this as their first four mallet but I did a version of Under the Sea that I adapted from piano. It was...interesting.
my friend asked if he could record me for his recording class and i now have to learn and perform this song in 3 hours... wish me luck.
Wow this woman is God tier!!
those double laterals tho!! i wish mine were that good and not shaky, but that’s what practice is for lol
What is the piece in the intro of every video in this series?
Okay I got 2 pairs of mallets coming in! Hopefully I can learn this in time to audition for transferring in the fall :,(
I had to learn the first bit of this for my percussion methods class. I'm a wind player, so it was really weird and frustrating. Luckily, though, we only played through the part where there's a F and a Bb in the left hand.
Ending was always my favorite though
aw yiss yellow after the rain!!!!11
I’m playing this solo for my schools spring concert and I’m not going to lie, I’m scared
i’ve played teardrops and sea refractions, but not this lol
...why are so many of peters’s solos named after water :/
Library entry#1: Yellow. Yep.
I'm performing this as my solo
I'm about to start playing this. Any tips?
I’ve played Suenos, Mystic Fire, and Ghost Garden. Is this a good piece to move on to?
Gonna have to do this for Percussion Finals. I can read notes and shit by my hands are NOT prepared. I can’t even rotate stroke properly
My band director gave this to me 2 months ago and i just now stumbled upon the video of it. OMG ITS AMAZING!! I didn't work on it because it looked really hard but now i see its a lot of repetition and that I can play this
I gona play this music now 😉
I started 4 mallets on Rain Dance last year. But I feel like this would have been fun as well.
Kristopher Phillips Awesome!
So I'm a second year percussionist and I'm gonna play this for my first percussion solo at my solo and ensemble competition LMAO.
I actually did this piece for a music event in high school and it was HARD. I still managed to make a 1 on it though 😁
this was my freshman year solo XD
College or HS?
I’m in seventh and I’m struggling on the sixteenth notes ughhh
my best friend is 1st chair percussion (im first chair tuba) and he gets mad at me cause i keep making him play it
Thaaanks
I love the marimba 😍😍
can someone throw me the notes of this play?
In VK
What marimba is being used?
I didn't see it anywhere in the vid or description, but I'm sorry if I missed it and it was posted somewhere.
Adams - Alpha Series
What's the reason for using a different mallet for mallet 1?
xMrPoi probably to have the hits louder
Omg I’m playing this for my solo in like 8 weeks I’m so nervous 😂
How did it went
That last page thoooooo
it looks like a studie can become a real piece of music to me
Very good control on the sixteenth note parts and good job with the dynamic contrast and phrasing.
What is the intro song called?
TheGh0s Prelude from Cello Suite No. 5 by Bach. It's performed the same performer that performed Yellow After the Rain. It's on the Vic Firth RUclips channel
prelude to bach's cello suite no. 5
После танца дождя идёт солнце после дождя
Going to state for this tomorrow
Didn’t have a choice in my solo wouldn’t choose this one it is overplayed
I played rain dance in 7th grade I’m in 8th now and I think I should play this
Like it 🙂
This is like everyone's go to lol
How many octaves does this song span?
I watched carefully. Look like you can play it on a 4.3
Im screwed
I'm learning up to E for my college audition
This is the one solo piece I never played. I got harder ones. I’d say I was pretty decent but for some reason they didn’t let me play this one and gave me solo pieces that required more lateral rolls and a bit more complicated pieces. Then one day I just decided to try this piece but didn’t have the sheet music so I just listened to pieces online or would tune in on someone else playing it and learned it that way. No sheet music just mimicking. This song was so easy for me but It had to do with the other solos. I got pieces like from Casey Kangeloski. Dude had some fun hard pieces . Etude in E minor, White knuckle stroll. It was fun
LOL ok
Welp I have to play this at my Honors Area Audition tommorow morning... I'm already freaking out. I've been practicing this for like about half a month mabye a month.
Dont worry future me you got in and got 3rd chair
Does anyone have suggestions on how to learn double mallets without a teacher?
Buy Method of Movement by Leigh Howard Stevens. He invented the grip and it's how I learned.
+Serena Balke Even if you do choose to learn on your own, I would very strongly recommend you either observe TONS of videos of percussionists using the stevens grip, or if possible, the best thing would to be able to watch a person play in real life.
Just remember that dull muscle soreness is okay, but sharp pains anywhere, except the surface of your skin (from the friction or bleeding), will screw you up and give you tendonitis. It's a lot harder to not screw your hands up without someone watching your back.
+Serena Balke We have a pretty extensive lesson series that'll help you out! Check it out here: vicfirth.com/sequential-studies-for-4-mallet-marimba/ We still recommend that you get a private teacher to work with you, but if that's not an option, then Julia's lessons will walk you though every technique in detail! Good luck!
+Serena Balke If you do purchase the Leigh Howards Stevens book, do not use it as a ends all be all method book. Many people read his book and strictly enforce what he says to do without any personal variation to it and it could potentially ruin your hands as a four mallet performer. Don't let it turn you hands into stiff and unmoldable hands. The Vic Firth video series will be great to watch and see just how it is applied without going off the deep end and ruining your technique. Merry practicing!
+Serena Balke Go to the Marimbaology youtube channel :D
Piano players:
look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our power
0:18
I flexed on my whole class and played rhythm song for comments only
I swear I have heard this somewhere before that's not percussion related
This was my brothers solo
What happened with the tempo at the beginning of the alternating strokes section? (13131313 24242424) there seem to be a couple places with a slightly late downbeat, but that part is just slow. Still a great performance overall though.
If you are asking if the second note at the beginning was a little late, it's because the note is on the and of beat 2. Its in 3/4
+Jeff VHS No, I said at the beginning of the alternating strokes section. At 1:31, it's supposed to be straight 16th notes at a constant tempo, not starting slow and playing it with an accelerando to get it back to regular tempo.
That's what we like to call phrasing in these parts!
It's called being musician and not a robot
Soon I will have chops like that 😂😂
