This is probably the coolest instrument I didn’t know about
Check out a “theremin”, blew my mind the first time I heard one
Garrett King this is way more complex, better and cooler.
This and Handpan blow me
Tongue drums are pretty cool too
Another little known really awesome one is the Hurdy Gurdy
Not only have I never heard of this amazing instrument, I'm amazed at how well it's being played!
I couldn't agree most!
What this guy did musically here is nothing short of incredible. Super talent here
Jacob Collier plays it better TBH
This guy wanted to play guitar but his mom made him take piano lessons
Haha
..sucked at picking

Who else didn't know that this thing existed?
Vishwadeep Sonawane just you lmao
me? hahaha this is my first time seeing this kind of instrument
The reason you don’t see these is because they are $3,000
Oh
Same I was like:"Played in a WHAT?!"
"...but god, why 10 fingers on man?" "Oh, you'll see soon enough...."
literally stole one of the top comments
But he only uses 8...
Because he only uses 9 of them :D

I never knew that an
ironing board can be a musical instrument.
*Intense ironing board screech*
ironic, isn't it?
Yeah, but everything is a little flat.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Anything can be musical instrument, even frying pans 😄
This is such a huge flex on midi pad players
depends on what type of mide pad players you watch. if you watch the kind that just cover a song by mapping parts of the songs to the buttons and just pressing the buttons in a row yeah they are dissapoitning. but if you watch someone like shawn wasabi watch?v=qAeybdD5UoQ you will actually be impressed
Weird flex but ok
not to down play midi players but it always just feels like pressing buttons fast, with this kind of instrument no only do you have to press the keys, different pressure also changes the sound, and there are lots of techniques to things like bending, vibrato, release, which add a whole other dimension to the playing that separates the good players from the bad, other than speed
@@v000000000000v isn't every instrument like that? Just press buttons fast? A good midi player is just as skilled an musician as a pianist or guitar player
go tell a pianist that he/she is just pressing buttons fast lol, you can press every key perfectly and it can still sound like ass, things like timbre, phrasing, dynamics, if you played fortississimo like pianississimo or vice versa it changes the mood of the song completely, which is also why electronic pianos aren't just binary buttons, there are many sensors involved, multiple pressure sensors, velocity sensing, all of these are beyond just 'speed'; and i already mentioned how guitar has different string manipulation techniques to add to the music. so no, they are not just pressing buttons fast
I can feel how expensive it is already
Some Guy on a Computer this model is sold on the official website at $2999. I can taste the poverty in me.
Giuseppe Dursi But you could probs get all the money back through gigs n shit if you become good at the thing
Jeremiah Noval _if_ : that's the keyword.
You need around 5'000 to 10'000 hours to master such a complex instrument (or 2 years and 3 months to 4 years and 6 months).
Plus you need other time and effort to put into "paying your dues", as well as a huge dose of luck to be known enough to fully repay this or another, even more expensive, instrument.

some people can't play guitar, their hands might not be strong enough or big enough. this instrument doesn't require the odd maneuvers that chords on the guitar sometimes do
@@bee4590 well, this looks like a somewhat of an (harmonic) piano or, as the name suggests, an evolution of the harp. And both of them, no offence intended, are two Antichrists of an instrument, way more than a guitar for sure 😂
I can imagine that sales for this instrument went way up, and now there are thousands of them sitting in closets across the country, not being played, after watching this guy make it look so easy!
Do you think thousands of people who watched this have some 4k $ to spare?
@@KrychuK91 out of 6 million... maybe. I mean 6000 people is the top 1% of the top 1%, so yeah maybe.
@@ARVash "out of 6 million... maybe. I mean 6000 people is the top 1% of the top 1%, so yeah maybe." that would actually be 600
@@Gabifuertes top 10% of the top 1% should still be more than wealthy enough
@@ARVash maybe, depends on the audience. Also, views don't necesarily mean unique viewers. The wasn't the point anyway.
It has so much flexibility! Almost like a voice. What an interesting instrument! Didn’t know it existed.
Yeah, he’s able to bend the notes.

I keep getting unique Bohemian Rhapsody videos in my recommended and it's the great niche category on RUclips
Me too XD
same haha
Drew Johnson it's since the movie has released
It seems to have gotten less niche after the movie came out, speaking as a Queen fan who has always had random Bohemian Rhapsody videos in his rec. feed.
Drew Johnson same dude
So.. do you want a guitar or a piano?
This dude: Yes.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
well give him an electric harp then :P
haha this is a very funny comment. did you come up with it? it's so funny.
Hunni i want this thing
Actually, when you think about it, there's quite a lot of clavichord in it, too.. in combination with a touch of Appalachian hammered dulcimer. It's a hybrid, allright, of a lot of other worthy instruments. Zither? Autoharp?
知らない楽器だけどすばらしい演奏でした。
This is awesome! Its like 16 bit music, sounds very soothing and familiar
Not to be "that guy", but all the music is 16 bits since the invention of the CD player :)
its like just the necessary notes like 16 bit, I agree
@@ChristianIce i have a miles davis cd that says it's in 24-bit audio, what's up with that??
@@saltedmutton7269
It's not a CD, or it's fake advertisement.
CD is a standard 44.100 16 bits.
I think he probably means 8-bit music… which is a bit of an insult to the good folks over at Marcodi IMO, but I suppose objectively I can kinda hear it. The RUclips audio compression doesn’t help.
And just Like that Bohemian Rhapsody becomes the soundtrack to an SNES Final Fantasty villiage.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Great... thanks to you I'm coming back to my Game Boy Advanced and play FFVI for the 6th time...
You are a genius.
LOL! I was thinking of video games during the presentation too! It totally sounds like something from an early Final Fantasy.
TASTYYY
it sounds like a mix of a harpsichord and acoustic guitar.
Yeah, I was sort of thinking 'electric harpsichord' when listening to it. =)
You sound like a mix of a harpsichord and a acoustic guitar
@@deisyramirez4391 well, then start plucking!
This is my absolute favorite acoustic version of this song. Absolutely fantastic, you are an incredible artist!
Sorry, but this isn't acoustic, the Harpejji is amplified. Perhaps you meant 'Instrumental"?
You know... I figured that one out after the second listen! Haha!
AFAIK, I've never seen or heard a harpejji before, but it's an instant favorite! I love the range of tones, the BR arrangement, and your stellar performance! 👏👏👏👏👏
It's like a cross between a guitar and a piano, sounds like a harpsichord and makes 16-bit game music. Amazing!
It also looks like typing!
More like a clavichord. It even sounds like one. Which is appropriate, since a clavichord works similar to hammering on on a guitar.
That's exactly what it sounds like! It's amazing!
Guy 1: I can play guitar...
Guy 2: Cool, I can play piano...

It also can be used as a musical ironing board.

The surrogate who carried the baby was an ironing board. ;)
Jose Miguel / mostly sounds like Harpsichord and Guitar :)
Jose Miguel more harpsichord tho

Though, on a normal guitar you can also play like this. A normal guitar is just smaller (obviously).

OMG! THAT WAS AMAZING! First time seeing such an instrument__WILD! 💖🙌😺
This almost sounds like it is being played through a Gameboy
Retro games
Yes it sounds like that because the sound is heavily compressed. This instrument is acousticly not loud at all, and tapping the string gives a variable output volume. A compressor helps in fixing that !
The start sounds like the opening town of a pokemon game
exactly what i though " gameboy music creator 2000"
We need a Tetris cover!
Sounds like Bohemian Rhapsody in an 8bit RPG videogame!!!
Now I read your comment I cannot unhear it.
Thats what I was thinking
nah not 8bit the song is still to clear to be put into 8bit
Queen: the pixel track
16 bits, at least
I am truly mesmerized!! I have never heard of this instrument and am truly amazed at the skills of this guy! This instrument is so suitable to play the theme from Super Mario brothers.
Only with time it could be realized, more n more clearly, how beautiful and genius tha composition is. Especially thanks to such covers... Awesome work brotha! U made my day!

smilyle astral ascension
zachary wellendorf the practice does the Master says somebody (in spanish) but i think that thingh isn't popular so it will cost so much to just "practice"
This is one take.
It would sound like shit with all that reverb if he edited it at all.
Actually It sounds like the reverb was added after the fact so he could have technically edited parts of it later on
I know rock fans struggle with such a concept, but classical musicians do this all the time with much more complex music.
At 4:09 he be like: Hold on, there's some dust on my Harpejji
Just listen & enjoy...
Never seen that instrument before in my life, but it's awesome, and Mathieu makes it sound glorious!!
You can tell it's Bohemian Rhapsody just by the crossing of his hands.

lol
it's not a viola, it's a harpejji
weareewancameron he said “voila” not a viola, besides, violas sound like screeching geese that just got there heads chopped of :3
not one wrong note, what a master
look closely - what you see is not what you hear. But almost ...
Far from flawless, you deaf and blind person
Dats toxic
No, it's my opinion. What is truly toxic, is the fact that you went and insulted my 4 year old video. The fact of the matter is, the guy certainly knows his instrument, but timing-wise he is not on point. Edit: I wanted to comment on your gay overwatch videos but I thought that it would be kinda childish.
well dude, you are toxic indeed - why those insults? you shared your opinion, he shared his - hes not on point timing wise sometimes, yes - but its still very good - there is no need to insult other people over the internet man :)
I don’t think people realize how hard this instrument actually is to play it’s harder then piano or a guitar
Depending on how your brain wired..some people prob take to it steaight away..give it to an autistic kid he rinse it in no time lol
I commented too soon jesus you right lol
@@jshaw4757😂
I doubt it.
this is my first time ever seeing this instrument. looks and sounds awesome
I clicked on this thinking: "Well this will sound fun and ridiculous on such a strange instrument", but holy shit, this sounds so good. This is better than most solo piano or guitar versions I've ever seen. Not just perfect playing but the sound is perfect for the song.
Guido Anselmi ..ive never seen this instrument. It sounds like an acoustic guitar and piano in one
I really like the idea of this instrument, but the sound is like an e-guitar with 10 yo strings :/
It sounds more like a harpsichord.
@@Trev359 I agree ! I was watching Harpsichord videos prior to finding this video
Guido Anselmi EXACTLY my thoughts.
Mama....
Just played an ironing board.
And is sounded so good
I thought it looked like a boogie board
terrible english.
One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard! Musician for 50 years. Wow

But it`s absolute stunning! Never seen, never heard. Sounds great! I love your interpretation of this milestone of music history! Well played my friend - and thank for surprising me once more in my life 😉😊
Me too

Wandered into this video - it was like getting dropped into another world. Amazing talent and sound.
Perfect description!
I concur ! This is eerie and spectacularly beautiful at the same time
It's like a harp, guitar, baglama saz, and harpsichord had a love child with a midi file.
Lmao
Your comment made me smile....and imagine! Seems logical...hahaaa!
His fourfathers would be happy.
Never seen this instrument before. Sounds like a quitar. Really nice.
They have only been around the last 13 years from what i have read about them.
So when it becomes too difficult to the learn the "guitar", it becomes a "quitar" 😋😂

Tim Meeks
The harpejji is an electric stringed musical instrument developed in 2007 by Tim Meeks, founder of Marcodi Musical Products, and is a descendant of the StarrBoard. The instrument aims to bridge the gap in sound and technique between the guitar, bass guitar, and piano.
Don’t know why this was in my recommended, but I’m not complaining. Truly great performance

but it is boring.
Music teacher: so do you wanna play piano or guitar?
Him: *yes*
So this is the first time I have heard this instrument...I could NOT stop watching it. Memorizing. Like a harpsichord mated with a guitar and had this elegant instrument. Looks like it makes your fingers hurt to play.
Well done!

That's an amazing instrument! Very cool interpretation, too. Thanks for sharing this.
When can't decide whether to learn the guitar or the piano.....
just get both my friend
paper garapata I have both, my friend! Both are good.
Isso mesmo! Kkkkk
Both are fun even though I never owned a guitar and i just owned a small keyboard. Still fun anyways.
:P
Its like a piano but for guitar!
Lord Sydney in fact guitar is a chord instrument too, thats why sounds similar
i bet you mean ´´string`` instrument, chord is when more than one notes are played at the same time, wich can be achived in guitar, piano and this instrument and a lot more other
I thought it was like a combination of piano and guitar :/
Exactly what I thought! And this is the first time I saw one:
ruclips.net/video/CYT2z11j-f8/видео.html
My first thought was "a guitar for programmers?".
Beautiful arrangement and performance!!

I'm in.
This is simply amazing. Freddie would have been happy to hear Bohemian Rhapsody played like this.
"do whatever you like with my music, just don't make it boring!" yeah, I'd say this qualifies under his terms
No, Freddie would not have approved. He was really into authenticity, and was far more of a traditionalist than many people realized, especially when it came to his music.
One time this guy tried to impress him by playing Queen on an accordion. Freddie was polite to the guy, but later told me he wished he could've scratched his eyes out.
He was actually a big student of musical history and very into period instruments.
Can't always judge a book by its (flamboyant) cover.
To be fair, anytime ive ever heard anything on an accordion, ive wanted to scratch my eyes out too.

Somewhere in heaven Freddie Mercury is being brought to tears with a smile on his face shouting "ROCK ON MATTHIEU!!"
google user hate to say this, but according to Christianity, gays aren't allowed in heaven. Quite sad. Freddie coulda rocked a harp and halo easily...
I understand that this is Freddie we are talking bout, but still. Seems like a flaw in logic here
Screw what Christians think. God loves all his children. As by the logic you place. Robin Williams would not be in heaven. As he committed suicide. As those who bring happiness to this world. They always die in tragic ways, taken too soon, or generally forgotten. As to that. I think Freddie is up there and rocking out with a lot of rock legends and singers.
Qardo Robin Williams very well could be there since he had a brain disease that was the cause of his suicide.
Qardo according to christianity he already had his price in this world which seemed like obviously more important to him than its eternety. If you like to be without Jesus=God, he will grant you your wish and will be forever without him once they dig out your grave. The question is, if you do so, are you entirely aware of the consequences?
F A.I. Why are you acting like there is only one point of view on heaven? Even in one religion there are people with different views on heaven, some say that if peoples goodness outweigh their badness they go to heaven, some say gay ness isnt even a sin, some say that bringing joy and being thoughtful is even more important than specific rules, overall just wanted to say that there are many views on this one subject
3:25 the camera angle that made me realise he's playing an ironing board.
Ha! Ha! Ha!

Actually that's a keyboard stand. Similar design though
no its just a standard x stand i have one sitting right next to me

Very cool instrument that I've never seen before. Reminds me of a piano. Sounds beautiful. Great job buddy❤
I'd never heard of this instrument before; now, I can't imagine why. It's a wonderful instrument and the perfect piece to show off this young man's skills. Kudos!
The instrument is still pretty new and obscure. It was invented in 2007
It sounds like it's straight from an SNES RPG game.
This is the comment I was looking for.
yes!!
I don’t really know how, but the higher notes sound almost like square waves, while the bass notes are so clean. I think its something to do with the fact that the only way he’s playing notes is by hammerons.
Exactly !
haha exactly what I was thinking :D
Ok, years later and I’ve never seen this instrument. Amazing tone.
Thank you so very much! I've never seen this instrument before. I love the sound and love Bohemian Rhapsody. What a wonderful talent you have!
