You on your own could be perfectly in tune, but if the ensemble is all out of tune together, then you’re really the one that’s going to stand out as out of tune. You tune with your ensemble, unless you need a reference when giving a tuning pitch, you should never need a tuner at a large ensemble rehearsal

Tbh I'm in a symphonic orchestra and it happens very often that the winds have to do nothing because the strings are messing things up so we're on our phones quite a lot. Our 1st flute brings a book with her and starts reading as soon as the strings have to rehearse anything separately 😂 The brass is often also neglected in classical pieces so yeah, we're just vibing in the back.
as the one and only middle school bass clarinetist, i am very often overlooked or looped in with the trombones. i just get on my phone anytime the saxes or percussion have to practice or rehearse separately
my band director just goes like, "you have a call? can u accept it, i wanna say something." receives call "AHN NYEONG HA SE YO" that happened once, but ye, hes just cool with it
You can have your phone on you during rehearsals and look at it every once in a while and still enjoy rehearsal. It’s rude how you just lumped everybody together and said we don’t enjoy rehearsal because we keep our phones with us.
@joeyjackson4872 I can tell you are a kid who can't not use their phone in class because of how offended you get by the mere mention that it's possible you could just not be on it. Y'all have an addiction and don't even know. When phones were new things they were in our lockers and if they went off at school or we were caught on them they were immediately taken away until the end of the day. "I can like the rehearsal and still be on my phone 😡😡😡" like okay sure but also you could not use your phone in class at all 😅
don’t blame him. bro asked a billion times to put their phones away. luckily at my high school, everyone is scared of our band director so they don’t even bother to have a phone out 😅
I used to substitute teach. This is kinda funny and satisfying to watch, but it was also the wrong way to handle it. You undermine yourself as an authority figure, and you've changed the focus from, "student violates classroom procedure and is disciplined accordingly," to, "teacher destroys students' property." Give one verbal warning along the lines of, "I need all phones put away and eyes up here." Don't use a casual tone, because you want to be clear in your intent. If the phone comes back out, tell the kids to start playing through something on their own, then go up to the student and take the phone. If the school has a policy, have the phone sent to the office for the student or their parent to pick up. Call home either way. This can be enhanced with a detention if need be, although if this is the first time (I'm guessing not), that's probably not necessary.
Those people are lucky to have that kind of band director. Mine is leniant the first time but the second and third he will get mad. The key to having people listen to you I would say is respect and/or authority in an audible way because people will pay attention to someone they shouldn't disrespect unless they truly do not care
Oh I have a story for this My freshman year of highschool, and since we have a school with about 2400 kids there are a lot of kids in music and performing arts. My school has multiple levels of band and orchestra I was playing 2nd violin at this time. The teachers like to gather the chamber orchestra and advanced orchestras along with the jazz band and wind ensemble to do a symphony. We were planning/practicing as a very large group for a consort the day. It is also important to note there were some kids skipping class in the auditorium that day. As we are playing the orchestra teacher stops the music and asks one of the students in the seats in front of the stage to turn off the volume on their phone. Keep in mind the orchestra teacher is best described as a fluffy Irishmem and just a very nice guy. With that in mind after he told the student to turn off their phone we resumed playing. About 15 minutes later we stopped again and he asked nicely again then we resumed playing. About 10 minutes later he silently stops the symphony. He swiftly walked over to the student and in a tone no was ready to ask the student for their phone. Keep in mind that during all of this the whole symphony was pen drop quiet. He took the kids phone and walked up to stand and we resumed playing with the hairs on the backs our necks still standing up. I have never seen him do anything like it since and I hope to never have to. At the end of the day in the chamber orchestra he said he never meant it to be that sharp but it was an in the moment act instead as he was very stressed. So yea people don't have your phones out or you may make the nice teacher mad. (Ps: sorry for the wall of words)
I'm not in high school yet so we can't have phones anyway but when he tells us to do something and we don't he's like "ok I'll wait 👀 " he was in the army for 10 years and I'm shocked he hasn't yelled at us yet He had asked a few people to pack up before but not many He's really nice and I bet one day he'll break and yell at us
dude i thank my lucky stars everyday that the band teacher i had freshman year (covid) got fired. our new teacher is FUCKING AMAZING and everybody loves her. honestly my class doesnt really have any problems, we all just have this mutual respect for each other and we all just play super well together and its perfect, i love my band
Fr though these people are so phone addicted, like put that damn phone away so we can actually start class and the teacher doesn’t have to walk around worrying about that stuff and wasting everybody’s time. It’s really not that hard. There’s always at least a few people in my band class on their phone or with headphones in and then the teacher has to stop class and deal with it wasting everyone’s time even though they all know that they shouldn’t have their phone out.
One does not touch and/or damage people's stuff simply because it annoys you. Childish, unprofessional, criminal and how is someone going to pay attention after that?
Damn back in my day we would tune by ear from the piano or from an in tune tuba. Also - that sounded like a 2 dollar android 💀 you could hear the backplate clatter
In my music class and band, nobody really uses their phone because we’re all too focused on making music and practicing. If we did use our phones, it’d be to look up music sheets 😂
HE ASKED SO NICELY??? My band director would've taken our phone, and told us to put up our instrument. We'd be LUCKY if she just did that. Most of the time we get a marker, stick, or our phones thrown at us. She really doesn't care.
This is idiotic, it's incredible how so many people play instruments for the excuse of playing an instrument and the director has to actually ask them to put their phones away.
I understand people use phones to tune their instruments. It is best if the teacher tunes the oboeist. We use the oboeist to tune the orchestra. I would take all their phones away. Write their name on a sticky note and place it on their phone. Put all the phones on my desk. Each person will do that as they come into the classroom.
I taught middle school band before cell phones were small and common. So glad I never had to deal with brats with phones. Your response was disrespectful. I would say your director should not have thrown that phone, but, he's tired of the mess. He's there to teach you; all of you are there to learn. I'm assuming you all want to be in band because you are competent on your instruments. I'm 67 and I still play my bass trombone in a community concert band after playing for 50+ years. Develop your skills!
I don’t think the teacher’s action was justified, but I don’t blame him. Imagine trying to help kids become successful musicians and they’re not even paying attention. Having your phone out for non band purposes just detracts from the experience of people who are committed and want to do band stuff during band class and not having to listen to the director lecturing about phones.
@@OMGPWNTATOECHIPZ Ik not saying the teacher was right but sometimes there is the kid that you want that to happen to in band that sucks and ruins their insturment on purpose

as the one and only middle school bass clarinetist, i am very often overlooked or looped in with the trombones. i just get on my phone anytime the saxes or percussion have to practice or rehearse separately
Or you could listen to the advice for the strings and when the winds inevitably have a similar passage, director won’t have to rehearse that twice.
Bravo Casey… they’ll learn that with more rehearsal experience.

Yeah my band teacher is pretty strict when it comes to phones. Only in sectionals can we use them to tune

Getting your phone in class is just stupid
If he took her phone that sure looks like some kind of crime

So glad I retired from band directing. Loved the 5% of the time making music with kids, but the other 95% sucked and got worse every year.
