bro my friends are in percussion and my friend mica plays snare on a christmas piece and she literally has a full page of rests, page turn, half a page of rests, and 2 measures of playing
As a clarinet player I can confirm our music is pretty much guaranteed to be easy (EDIT: I COMMENTED THIS WHEN I WAS A FRESHMAN AND HAD ONLY EXPERIENCED MS MUSIC)
As a Trombone in school band, I can confirm that all of these are accurate. The Baritones almost never have to be corrected during class, the Tubas struggle with rhythms equivalent to 2+2, and the Trombones are utter chaos all around. For some reason, my class specifically cannot tell the difference between an A natural and and A flat and it will never end. I feel like the best Trombone player in the class because of it sometimes.
Today one of our three (I'm one so not counting me there's two) forgot his mouthpiece and still managed to play while the teacher was talking, so she took his slide
In my band the baritones need to get corrected the most and the tuba player is the teachers example for the rest of us low brass players (I play trombone too)
As a flute player in band, I can confirm that playing high notes is so much harder than playing low notes. Like seriously, can't we just have the picolos play the high ones?
1:31 As a trombone player, this is actualy so true. Every time our band director gives us time to practice, I just let out all of my lung capacity because the room is loud so no one will notice lol :D
Lol my marching band just finished our season (im a trumpet) and we had to play 1 song where pretty much our whole melody was above the staff (also we had 0 rests the entire song and it was our finale so our lips were absolutely dead)
As a trumpet there is a level of oh no, for notes above the staff. High G no sweat, high A not too bad, high B uh on a good day, high C hell nah, high D lord help us.
0:43 okay but as an intermediate clarinet player our parts can be difficult when it comes to the high notes- if you don’t get the very specific mouth position right you squeak and ruin everything 😭
The one about Tubas hit kinda close to home because one of my friends who plays tuba didn’t even know what an eighth note was I don’t think he still does
as someone who did school band last year, can confirm percussionists never get new stuff (we broke like 2 pairs of mallets. in a year.) we had to wait like forever until the teacher actually could help us too lol
As a bassoonist I can confirm that my bank account is in a constant state of broke, like bro it’s just two pieces of shaped wood put together by a wire why can’t it be cheap like clarinet reeds 😭😭😭
As a horn human, I can confirm that when we think we have the melody, it's just a simpler version of the actual melody that is played by the clarinets and trumpets
One of my concert pieces this semester, Afterburn, has so many high c staccato quarter notes (it's in the 200-300 range) in a row that you'd think the composer forgot clarinets existed/need to breathe. Literally on the part where every single other instrument, even the percussionists, had the melody, us clarinets were over here like c c c c c c c c I'm so bored
THE CLARINET REED THING IS CRAZY our marching band went to play at a football game AN HOUR AWAY FROM OUR SCHOOL and this one girl forgot her WHOLE CLARINET
there are 3 types of trumpet players in school concert bands; 1: egotistical trumpet 1s (they like to show off their higher range by doing high scales/long tones), 2: trumpet players who join band for "easy A", dont play, and troll the rest of the band 3: the trumpets who are ok at trumpet and just try their best. type 1s cant stand type 2s and easily fall for their ragebait but will also make fun of them when they don't play the right notes type 3s side with both sides (if a trumpet 2 says something like "imagine actually trying in band" trumpet 3 will come to 1's defense usually (when trumpet 1s make fun of trumpet 2s for not playing correct note trumpet 3s come to trumpet 2's help)
French horns getting the harmony for the 7532nd time: Percussionists explaining why they should be allowed to play their instrument between songs: Trumpets when they don't have the melody:
Yea the French horn one is real, I NEVER know were the melody is, and also as a clarinet yesterday I was marching in a parade playing sleigh ride, I knew like 4 parts of the top of my head, so it was hard for me because the notes were supperrrr high
percussionists counting their 276 measure rest
Fr bro 😭
@hognosesnakessfr
bro my friends are in percussion and my friend mica plays snare on a christmas piece and she literally has a full page of rests, page turn, half a page of rests, and 2 measures of playing
I’m in percussion, (drums so I’m important), and one of my friends had one note in the whole song.
As a former percussionist (i quit because of it), this is true
As a clarinet player I can confirm our music is pretty much guaranteed to be easy (EDIT: I COMMENTED THIS WHEN I WAS A FRESHMAN AND HAD ONLY EXPERIENCED MS MUSIC)
Yeah it's really easy unless like rests and the "play louder part" 😭
Wait until you get older
Agreed and when you go over the staff line multiple times
@@ethanpedersonfr, my band director makes us run laps for not known ng our music
Clarinet I feel have the hardest paty
Trombones trying not to miss their queue entirely:
as a tromboner i can confirm i only sometimes miss it
@@bimothytcchlannovesky *trombonists 😭
You are absolutely a bassoonist, no one has insider knowledge on how expensive double reeds are unless you play one. (Coming from an oboist)
people know (other than bassoons people)
shut up nerd hes percussion
I get “is that a saxophone”. A *lot*. It is absolutely just the double reeds.
As a saxophonist who has a bassoon friend, I know how expensive those shits are 💀
real $80 for 4 reeds
1:45 as a oboe I’m so glad that my struggles are finally recognized and to be represented by nikocado avocado himself is truly an honor😔
Justice for oboes!!
YESS
Exactlyy like why am I playing ff and still getting told we need more oboe
Real
Only one oboe in our group 😭 RIP
As a trumpet player I haven’t even dared to play those high notes
My other trumpets force me to play the high notes 🥲
The clarinets and saxophones infront of me do not like it when i attempt to play those notes
As a Trombone in school band, I can confirm that all of these are accurate. The Baritones almost never have to be corrected during class, the Tubas struggle with rhythms equivalent to 2+2, and the Trombones are utter chaos all around.

Tenor playing jig 2 for the 34,8392th time and still getting praise:
Percussionists when they receive mallet percussion (they’re cooked)
Yeah as a drum kit player who fills in for percussion I’m screwed if I see a glockenspiel part
I’m actually quite happy when I receive mallet parts
I took piano for 4 years when I started percussion so I cooked at mallets
@@1st_take_drummer yeah I’m grade 7 piano but I hate mallets
I literally STARTED playing percussion via mallets and I'm still bad at them. (I'm still the best in my class)
As a percussionist, I can confirm we are the most important part of the band
i agree
VENTI????
Exactly. Who’s gonna keep tempo without us? The band director? The conductor? The WOODWINDS? Fat chance.
He’ll yeahhh baby! I love Randall standridge [help me.]
The percussionists in my school band are honestly complete idiots and can't do anything correct.
Everyone in band has beef with each other, and yet, it's almost mandatory to respect percussion, you do not accept them, they just happen.
As a percussionist, I have no idea what the other instruments think of our section
As a percussionist, this is true
As a percussionist I can confirm
Nah my percussion section was ASS. They could not keep a simple beat. All the good ones graduated and there were no new ones that were good
@buberoini our band might be like that next year😭
As a flute player in band, I can confirm that playing high notes is so much harder than playing low notes. Like seriously, can't we just have the picolos play the high ones?
1:31 As a trombone player, this is actualy so true. Every time our band director gives us time to practice, I just let out all of my lung capacity because the room is loud so no one will notice lol :D
As a clarinetist, the Bari sax in our songs are pretty much the only thing holding it together.
1:38 yes and when we get cut off right before the solo and when we get forgotten about in basically every compilation lmao
FR
The trumpet one was so relatable lmao🥲
0:09 as a french horn i can confirm the saxophones and clarinets and trombones and trumpets steal it
As a French Horn I can 100% Agree 😂
It’s not even us for the most part it’s just the trombones 😔
Lol my marching band just finished our season (im a trumpet) and we had to play 1 song where pretty much our whole melody was above the staff (also we had 0 rests the entire song and it was our finale so our lips were absolutely dead)
The whole back section trying to not fail the easiest cue in the entire world of music for the French horns, trumpets, reed instruments
As a baritone player, I confirm I tell people that my instrument is a baritone
only difference is the direction the direction the buttons face
The sound is oboe is actually very distinct but then again I’m the only oboe in my current ensemble 💀
same, but i can pick out an oboe from an entire band with everyone playing ff
As a percussionist i can confirm
French Horns have attention for once
me, a bassoonist who gets free reeds from their bassoon teacher since he makes reeds and has me testing the quality of them
Fr, either your teacher is a manufacturer or ur in debt
oboe reeds are about $15-25 and you have to replace them EVERY WEEK
Percussionists when you tell them about dynamics(they only play as loud as possible)
1:01 As a middle school clarinet player, this is wayyy too accurate ☠️
0:15 EUPHONIUM MENTOINED🔥🔥
Idiot Spotted
Rare sighting
euphonium 🗣️🔥🔥
YESSIR1!1!1!!1
As a trumpet there is a level of oh no, for notes above the staff. High G no sweat, high A not too bad, high B uh on a good day, high C hell nah, high D lord help us.
as a percussionist, yes
0:43 okay but as an intermediate clarinet player our parts can be difficult when it comes to the high notes- if you don’t get the very specific mouth position right you squeak and ruin everything 😭
0:35 Because they broke the last piece of equipment
I had to fix a hihat that was broken for 2 years because students broke it and the director didn’t have the time
0:45 as a clarinet myself i still cant hit thoose notes after 5 yearsof practice *sigh*
bro us horns almost never get the melody, and when we do it's always shared with the altos
0:24 as an alto sax I can confirm this information
as a trumpet I can confirm this.
2:02 HELP THIS IS SO REAL 😭💀
french horn one is so true
0:49 fr tho, the trumpets in my schools band for no reason love to play super loud
1:48 as a percussionist I have heard so many people say that as if we don't basically set up the entire beat
The oboes are literally one of the loudest ones 😭🤚
1:40 as a flautist who was somehow given the oboe part, I do not relate
The one about Tubas hit kinda close to home because one of my friends who plays tuba didn’t even know what an eighth note was I don’t think he still does
The sad part is FRENCH HORNS ALWAYS GET THE MELODY AND ITS ALWAYS A BANGER, LIKE NO FAIR 💀🙏
as someone who did school band last year, can confirm percussionists never get new stuff (we broke like 2 pairs of mallets. in a year.) we had to wait like forever until the teacher actually could help us too lol
The tuba player in our band etched his initials into a school owned instrument
Oboe one is so relatable
As a bassoonist I can confirm that my bank account is in a constant state of broke, like bro it’s just two pieces of shaped wood put together by a wire why can’t it be cheap like clarinet reeds 😭😭😭
The rest of the band when percussion actually does their job without going off the rails:🥳🥳🥳🤪🤪😜😝😃😃😃😄😄😄
As a tuba player I can confirm I was never taught anything and still ask about simple rhythms
2:01 yes I can confirm that this is very true, our director is so tired of the low brass 💀💀💀
In flute the higs notes are so Easy, the hard Is the afination
As an Alto Saxophonist, I can confirm, that this is accurate.
As an alto I cannot😔 atleast not in my band
Bass clarinets were forgotten about, this is really accurate!
I don’t have those urges can’t say the same for others though
Is there one we’re all your French horns cry and have a mental breakdown
As a horn human, I can confirm that when we think we have the melody, it's just a simpler version of the actual melody that is played by the clarinets and trumpets
One of my concert pieces this semester, Afterburn, has so many high c staccato quarter notes (it's in the 200-300 range) in a row that you'd think the composer forgot clarinets existed/need to breathe.

As a clarinet player, I feel so bad for you. 😞
I am a percussionist so I don't feel you (afterburn is good song)
@@calebharrelson2107 Yeah lol my brother was on xylophone for afterburn and he had a good time of it
THE CLARINET REED THING IS CRAZY our marching band went to play at a football game AN HOUR AWAY FROM OUR SCHOOL and this one girl forgot her WHOLE CLARINET
As a trombonist I confirm that some people in my section are doing that
Also as I run bassoon as a secondary I confirm they are expensive as hell
Erm.. As a French Horn player, we had the melody in most of my band songs 🤓☝️
1:34 real
As a tuba I feel right at home only getting one thing said about me
Trombones tweaking after their slide slides off for the 4th time (they oiled up the slide too much)
not the trumpet notes above the staff
1:34 we resist?
as a bari sax player, so true
same
Real
1:58 as a section leader for the tubas at my high school, this is too true for some tuba players.
0:55 is so real wth I can’t do it
there are 3 types of trumpet players in school concert bands; 1: egotistical trumpet 1s (they like to show off their higher range by doing high scales/long tones), 2: trumpet players who join band for "easy A", dont play, and troll the rest of the band 3: the trumpets who are ok at trumpet and just try their best.
type 1s cant stand type 2s and easily fall for their ragebait but will also make fun of them when they don't play the right notes
type 3s side with both sides (if a trumpet 2 says something like "imagine actually trying in band" trumpet 3 will come to 1's defense usually (when trumpet 1s make fun of trumpet 2s for not playing correct note trumpet 3s come to trumpet 2's help)
My band is teh conplete opposite, the oboe is the only instrument you hear and there is only one
As a piano player, I can confirm we don’t exist, never have existed, and never will xist
As a French horn player I kinda got sad but realized it was true
1:25 Bari sax mentioned 🔥🔥
As a tuba player the rhythm one is so real like I know the rhythm I just can’t play it without help. 😔
As a horn player we search far and wide for melody not to get any
Percussionists just chilling
Bass clarinets trying to get a single note out that’s not a horrible sounding squeak
Oof I bet I turned whatever business that I got my bassoon reeds from into a multi billion dollar company in year 4 ;-;
As an Alto Saxophonist, I can confirm that we cannot play in tune.
0:54 fr tho, how do you not get a deep F😭
I play flute and high notes are easy, it’s those low notes that get me so the only other flute plays lower while I play higher
Percussion one is true we be hitting random instruments with snare sticks
As a electric guitar player in band cant confirm
As a baritone I see euphonium players as equals.
As a French horn, I can agree we have no melody.
the crazy thing is that there’s technically only one baritone in our band and the rest are euphoniums
Oh so all euphoniums
French horns getting the harmony for the 7532nd time:
Percussionists explaining why they should be allowed to play their instrument between songs:
Trumpets when they don't have the melody:
Yea the French horn one is real, I NEVER know were the melody is, and also as a clarinet yesterday I was marching in a parade playing sleigh ride, I knew like 4 parts of the top of my head, so it was hard for me because the notes were supperrrr high
As a saxophonist I approve this message
Erm teacher🤓 we forgot our scales!
GET OUT 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
As I play baritone I confirm that this is true and we are different from euphoniums
As a trombone player it’s actually true 1:33
as another trombone player, yes
As a Clarinet player I can def confirm that all of this is true
2:04 see I go to catholic school, we don’t have scales we have hymns. And as an oboe, still not being heard 😢
1:01 CAN COFIRM AS A CLARINET PLAYER
1:59 SO REAL BRO
THE TUBA PLAYERS AT MY MIDDLE SCHOOL WERE ASS
As a Bari sax player one of my songs has 63 notes and 32 consecutive measures of rest 😭🙏
Bruh! The freakin powerpuff girls theme! 😂
The high note in question: _

EERM ACTUALLY THE EUPHONIUM IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM THE BARITONE 🤓☝
