One of the coolest things that happened to me ever was sitting across from this man in a rib shack in Alabama sharing drinking stories over beer and barbecue. He's the coolest, most down to earth guy on the planet. Friggin' awesome.
That's *exactly* what I was seeing when I saw this live. It sounds kind of distorted like the electric bass does. All in all this is probably the best tuba solo I have heard in years, remarkable.
I'm so mad. Two years ago I had the chance to see him at my school, but I had to study for an midterm. I've seen Clapton and Beck, but I regret everyday I missed Oystein.
he makes it look too easy, especially the polyphonic stuff, he must have perfect pitch... that and double tonguing as fast as he does is super hard, undoubtedly the best in the world
Still an all-timer for me. This video and my subsequent obsession with multiphonics absolutely changed ny trajectory as a musician in a great way. I make a living doing stuff like this now, and it probably wouldn't have happened without Fnugg.
Baadsvick, you're the best tuba player in all the times! It's marvelous to see you playing your E-Flat tuba and the sound that you make is incredible!!! You're a master and have great skills... Congratulations!!! I hope you come to Brazil one day to show us your job!
That is impressive! I always love it when an instrument is used in a unique way and this definitely ranks right up there. I'll never forget the first electric violin I heard. Oh it was awesome.
One of the contestants at this year's BBC Young Musicians 2012 contest just played this piece, complete with multiphonics and beatboxing. It was awesome.
Sir, I saw you do this in Tyler, Texas somewhere around 2008-2009. Immediately copied it, to the point I did it compulsively at a pep rally and almost got kicked out of my high school band. And I couldn't love you more for it. Thank you for influencing tuba players all over the world
I hope you're granted a lesson. I got to spend an entire week hanging out with Oystein when I participated in the Rekkenze Brass Festival a few years ago. He's awesome to see/meet live!
I'm in highschool and I play tuba. I found singing and playing easy. It just made since to me. To since to me. Or am I just weird. I was told by an music instructor to watch this and I'm amazed. I love playing tuba however this will be the last year I'll be able to play an instrument. But I'm happy to have played as long as I did. The tuba is a awesome instrument.
Thanks so much for sharing this! As a composer its so invaluable to have instrumentalists show us what can actually be done with the instrument. The two note chords totally blew me away and the microtone two tone waverings were awesome.
Mr. Baadsvik, you are a true inspiration to all us tuba players. One we all could wish to aspire to. Like many others have stated, you are a true virtuoso of the Tuba. Keep inspiring the masses.
athousand teddybears I have actually! Among others he studied at KMH in Stockholm for Michael Lind, who retired earlier this year. I was his last student :/
it pretty fun to play a little simple groove, really get going, then suddenly make strange noises in a flasetto voice. it sounds hilarious, and if you do it right will cause most people in a room crack up.
I am so going to order the solo. For a month or so, I've been practicing my multiphonics after I heard this. This freaking unbelievable. I'm actually pretty decent now. I can sing up to an octave above the note that I'm playing, but I can't do too much below the note I'm playing, I hope the piece doesn't have any singing below the note... if it does, oh well. A fun challenge.
I saw this performed today... the bloke who did it was amazing and basically did the routine beforehand! xD He played it as an encore for playing the Vaughan Williams Tuba Concerto :') It was amazing and I now wanna play the Tuba.
Well as one who frequents multiphonics, (singing and playing), I can tell you that a lot of these guys are right. A relaxed throat is necessary to achieve the desired result, but there is more to it. You need to spend time just buzzing and singing with the piano to really get it to relax. And when its called singing it is a little inaccurate, it's more of a hum. But hum and buzz sounds sexual.
I just heared this piece at a small concert in a cloister (o.O) where I sang, too. I'm sure a great part of the audience (about 60-80 years of age) expected pious church songs (like the one I had to contribute -.- ) and was a little bemused :-P. But especially some of the other young musicians, like me, were quite amazed, very courageous to play a piece like that there... But it rocked! :-)
@943kline Its more like humming then anything else and it helps to sing the note that you're playing at first and then try to slowly raise you sung pitch, it'll battle the note your playing but eventually you'll get the fourth or fifth above that note and it's really easy to get then.
@943kline for a while, just try buzzing and humming at the same time, then when you have gotten really good at that, go ahead and add your instrument, keep in mind that this won't work too well with woodwinds. Also, you will find it really easy to hum 3rds and 5ths. Then it is just practice.
The singing and playing at the same time is called Multi-Phonics, Its very hard to explain on how to do it, it literally is just singing and playing, you will have to try it. While your playing, try singing the letter O into the tuba. The part where it sounds like hes a percussion tuba, pretend like ur spitting seeds into the tuba and thats the basics.
Please could anyone tell me if its possible to see this live anywhere? In from Sweden and i really love this Song, and my Big secret passion is infact brass music especially saxophone and tuba so this would be a wet Dream come true for Me :) I think i have listened to this Rune over 100 times and i never get tired of it. Baadsvik does really good job and gas a very big talen. Skål før norge 3
@943kline you have to first make a sound with your voice then start to blow air at the same time and a lot of practice. I saw Oystein live in quebec city and this guy is amazing a lot of skills are needed to reach just 1/10 of what he make as a "tuba beat box" His a great musician.
Hey everyone! If you are in the Sacramento area, May 15 and 16th Mr. Baadsvik will be performing at CSU Sacramento in the Down in the Valley Tuba Euphonium Festival. Check it out at the Down in the Valley Facebook page!
I was there when they filmed that! I even got to shake his hand!!!!!
Hes fantastic. Even better in person...
Cap bozo
@@ragnar19968 HAHHA That comment was 15 years ago do you think he is gonna respond XD
@Sasuke come on man chill
One of the coolest things that happened to me ever was sitting across from this man in a rib shack in Alabama sharing drinking stories over beer and barbecue. He's the coolest, most down to earth guy on the planet. Friggin' awesome.
My man’s *jammin’* on that tuba. This is top tier brass, my friends. Top tier.
Have a look at the faq section under tuba pages on my web page. You'll find some explanations there. good luck!
That's *exactly* what I was seeing when I saw this live. It sounds kind of distorted like the electric bass does. All in all this is probably the best tuba solo I have heard in years, remarkable.
I think I'm going to go practice now......
40 hours a day (:
YOU STILL PRACTICIN?
i went to my friend's tuba recital today and he played this, i had no idea a tuba could make that sort of noise, i was blown away!
TheNHTRB multiphonics, you sing the upper note and buzz the lower. You can do the opposite but its really hard
It’s not about the ride, but the rider.
I'm so mad. Two years ago I had the chance to see him at my school, but I had to study for an midterm. I've seen Clapton and Beck, but I regret everyday I missed Oystein.
I saw this live last night and it was magical.
he makes it look too easy, especially the polyphonic stuff, he must have perfect pitch... that and double tonguing as fast as he does is super hard, undoubtedly the best in the world
I am playing the new Miraphone Starlight E-flat tuba.
Still an all-timer for me. This video and my subsequent obsession with multiphonics absolutely changed ny trajectory as a musician in a great way. I make a living doing stuff like this now, and it probably wouldn't have happened without Fnugg.
No question...the very best tubist alive today. And he's a Norwegian. Can it get any better than that?
David A. Paulson I think there is a lot of question to that statement
Nat McIntosh
Can he join a metal band?! 🤘🏼
Baadsvick, you're the best tuba player in all the times! It's marvelous to see you playing your E-Flat tuba and the sound that you make is incredible!!! You're a master and have great skills... Congratulations!!!
I hope you come to Brazil one day to show us your job!
This honestly... Sounds like a tribalish dance kind of thing. And I love it
You’re right. It’s a bit tribal :)
Sounds like Baadsvik was trying to make me feel like I’m in a cold Scandinavian valley, listening to echos between the snowy mountains.
That is impressive! I always love it when an instrument is used in a unique way and this definitely ranks right up there.
I'll never forget the first electric violin I heard. Oh it was awesome.
Wow, 17 years ago
and here we have someone who practices 40 hours a day (:
and here’s someone who came here because of twoset
@@thepanda5746 i see youre a man of culture as well
asedfrgtyhuj yes
asedfrgtyhuj also love your profile pic, you must be more cultured than original thought
9 hours a day actu- ahem, sorry, 80 hours. Better then ling ling 10/3
One of the contestants at this year's BBC Young Musicians 2012 contest just played this piece, complete with multiphonics and beatboxing. It was awesome.
sounds like a super jazzy trombone but way lower. bro takes the definition of tuba to a whole other level.
few weeks ago i thought multiphonics on the trombone sounded good. Now I saw this I don´t even want to try it anymore.
It works better on Tuba,cos it is easier the sing above the note you play...
Bob Steward does it very nice!😉
Sir, I saw you do this in Tyler, Texas somewhere around 2008-2009. Immediately copied it, to the point I did it compulsively at a pep rally and almost got kicked out of my high school band. And I couldn't love you more for it. Thank you for influencing tuba players all over the world

start a gofundme for a tuba, we want to hear you play
Well.....time to quit all tuba lessons now and work at McDonalds.
i tried it, didnt work im back at tuba
I try to do multi phonics. It either sounds ok, terrible, or doesn't even want to work. Good job Mr. Baadsvik!
I can do this just like Baadsvik.
-nobody ever
Thanks so much for sharing this! As a composer its so invaluable to have instrumentalists show us what can actually be done with the instrument. The two note chords totally blew me away and the microtone two tone waverings were awesome.
Tuba is my favourite percussion instrument
The one and only Tuba God
tuba dubstep......sweet mother of god
Song starts at 2:52
Me: I wanna be the best tuba player ever
Best tuba player:
*Lord Squidward left the lobby*
How is this man slaptounging without a reed?
I'm impressed
Fnugg is such an inspiration to me and my tuba playing
Sadly, the videos don't do justice to the live versions...but, yeah. Thanks for the great show today, Oystein!
I saw this live last night and I just wanted it to never stop.
Mr. Baadsvik, you are a true inspiration to all us tuba players. One we all could wish to aspire to. Like many others have stated, you are a true virtuoso of the Tuba. Keep inspiring the masses.
I can not express how much I like your technique, sound, and performance. Simply Great!
i do this sorta voice thing (humming, barking, singing) on my didgeridoo but it has only one key. he creates more sound too.
this is inspiring :)
I WAS THERE HE IS A GOD AMONG MEN
Steven Dammer it’s been a long, long time since you commented this.
Just… bombastic! I've never thought a tuba could make such sounds!
Music is magical and this musician proves it.
Brilliant!, would never have thought of listening to the tuba. That's got to got along way, bloody amazing. I take my hat off to that guy.
I met this guy today! He's a great guy and an AWESOME tuba player.
Thank you for allowing us to embed. This is the featured video in my blog today, entitled, "Be the Best".

i want to take lessons from his teacher!
athousand teddybears I have actually! Among others he studied at KMH in Stockholm for Michael Lind, who retired earlier this year. I was his last student :/
athousand teddybears or from him
Hold how you’re going to get lessons from god him self
I played didgeridoo for a while then picked up tuba so these techniques just came naturally it is really fun to do once you get the hang of it.
it pretty fun to play a little simple groove, really get going, then suddenly make strange noises in a flasetto voice. it sounds hilarious, and if you do it right will cause most people in a room crack up.
Må bare si at jeg er et stort fan av deg, og det du gjør med tubaen! helt sykt morsomt! :)
From a fellow Tuba player... That was awesome. I applaud your virtuosity.
Thanks twosetters for unearthing this masterpiece for more ppl to enjoy

I fucking loved playing this piece.
Omar Morales can you send me an email of a link to the music?
The tuba Lord and Savior back at it again!!
You rock Mr. Baadsvik! :-)

yes...my jaw was on the floor after that BBC Young Musician
WOW! I have been playing tuba for a long time, this is amazing!
Una sola parola per definirlo : Geniale!!!
Great Tuba playing!
2:58 : **my washing machine at 3am**

that concert was amasing
Omg that's amazing
And this was 13 years ago, he is probably even more masterful today
holy holy ravioli this is mindblowing
Incredible!!!
Brilliant! Simply brilliant! :D
@943kline Its more like humming then anything else and it helps to sing the note that you're playing at first and then try to slowly raise you sung pitch, it'll battle the note your playing but eventually you'll get the fourth or fifth above that note and it's really easy to get then.
You are amazing!
OWNED!!
Awesome!
fun to listen and watch.

You Inspire Me!!!
Классно! Большое спасибо... 👍
@943kline
you have to first make a sound with your voice then start to blow air at the same time and a lot of practice. I saw Oystein live in quebec city and this guy is amazing a lot of skills are needed to reach just 1/10 of what he make as a "tuba beat box" His a great musician.
awesome
