As a musician, I can safely say that the piccolo is not an uncommon instrument by any means. It's actually about as common as the regular flute, I'd say. Everything else is at least somewhat uncommon, though.
@Aexerial I'm a little rusty on my saxophones, my band has 1 alto sax and no others. Also, what's the difference between a soprano a sopranino saxophone?
@@waltoncummins719 It's a little more on the uncommon side. Jazz tends to shy away from it and saxophones in general don't find much classical use, but it's not the most uncommon instrument. There is more of it thanks to saxophone quartets being a thing on the classical side.
@@waltoncummins719 Maurice Ravel's Bolero is a great example of classical soprano sax. I guess it depends on whether your definition of common is based on use in literature or how often its played. In terms of repertoire, it's relatively uncommon. In terms of practical use, it's more on the common side.

They are voicings. Originally meant to describe what kind of vocal range a singer has. Here are all of the voicings from highest to lowest: piccolo, sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, bass, contrabass, and subcontrabass.
@@q12aw50 you miss one key difference, the instruments you mention are different in several fundemental ways, while the difference between the bass trumpet and the marching euphonium is as simple as the difference between euphonium and baritone
That's ironic, because the fog horn is actually a form of diaphone pipe or "valvular reed" organ pipe. Instead of a beating reed against a shallot (the way most pipe organ 'reed pipes' work; sort of like an all-metal equivalent of a clarinet or saxophone mouthpiece, enclosed in a chamber called a "boot" with a tuning wire adjusting the length of the reed and instead of a person's tongue on it), the diaphone has a VALVE on a spring which is adjusted to oscillate the correct frequency, setting up the air column vibrating within the pipe / resonator itself. The diaphone was invented/developed by Robert Hope-Jones in England, who is considered the father of the theatre pipe organ, although his earliest organs were meant for churches etc. He pioneered high-pressure pipework, electrical unification, consoles with stoptabs rather than stopknobs, and other innovations in organbuilding, some which really caught on with both newer church and theatre organs, others of which remain mainly the domain of the theatre pipe organ. The diaphone pipes were/are intended to give a bass end to the diapason as an alternative to the large scale actual diapason pipes that would otherwise be used for the 8', 16' and 32' octaves. I am not so sure that a diaphone can be made to play on low pressure wind like typically used for most conventional church organs, so I think they are typically found on higher pressure instruments (like 10" and up). Wurlitzer (who took over Hope-Jones' organ company in 1910, and with whom Hope-Jones was associated until his untimely death in 1914) built diaphone pipes as the 16' and 32' octaves of the diapason in most of their pipe organs, and other builders also built them (such as Robert-Morton and Marr & Colton), in addition to other organbuilders (Barton, Smith, etc) ordering them from pipe makers (like Pierce/Dennison; Gottfried etc). Diaphone pipes, when well made and well voiced, can actually have a really nice tone, but especially in the lower register, they literally are tuned fog horns. The largest organ pipes in the world, the 64" Dulzian, built by the Midmer-Losh Organ Co. as part of the largest pipe organ in the world (at Atlantic City Convention Hall, Atlantic City, NJ) are actually built as diaphone pipes and have a beating valve inside the boot at the bottom part of each pipe.
For some reason that Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy duet at 1:00 was hysterical. Probably because of the juxtaposition of a teeny instrument with high pitched doots and a large instrument with deep heavy doots. Though the Piccolo Trumpet had to be my favorite, maybe just because of how amazingly it was played, but I love the sound. I feel like I've heard both it and the Piccolo Trombone, and just didn't recognize either of them for what they were.
what we learned: piccolo= small version of any instrument. Bass= slightly bigger version of any instrument. Contrabass= big version of any instrument. Subcontrabass=huge version of an instrument. Got it?
There're some others types in between those. It goes like this: SubContraBass > ContraBass > Bass > Baritono > Tenor > Soprano > Piccolo. This is right as far as I'm aware.
Contrabass clarinet actually sounds like the contrabass itself... Also, I didn't know SUBcontrabass instruments exist... It's actually MINDBLOWING how huge some of those instruments are... And all of the hugest instruments are basses...Now I see of playing them all🤣
The piccolo flute is very very common. As is the piccolo trumpet. The piccolo is playing probably a Rossini overture, and the trumpet (used a lot during the baroque, although not with these mechanics) is playing from Haendel The Messiah. So it couldn’t be strange, that piece is played many times every year all over the world.

@Chris Jarvis No, there isn't. The prefix 'Piccolo' can be applied to any instrument to describe a half-size or smaller version of it, but the term Piccolo on its own is used to refer to the piccolo flute - it has its roots in Italian classical music, where it is referred to as the Flauto Piccolo (meaning piccolo flute) - they are the same instrument though, one name has just been used as a shortened version for use in scores etc. and has become the commonplace name.

In the late 1930s he switched to vibes, becoming one of the first musicians to specialize in that instrument.

Why tf did I laugh so much at this???????
Some of these are really beautiful sounding...others I’m convinced you need the lungs of a horse to play
Not to flex or anything but... I play low brass😏

Alto sax here, that bass sax and sopranino sax sounded absolutely fantastic. I wanna see a band composed of only contrabass instruments.
A band of contrabass instruments will put at least one person in debt. Repair costs would financially ruin whoever has to pay for it.
But hahahaha obese piccolo funni
The “subcontrabass flute” was actually a double contrabass flute.
Also the guy playing is making it sound like absolute shit.
Yeah, everybody knows such simple facts about a so-common instrument, and their ever more well-known players.

Piccolo trombone has to be the cutest instrument ever played!! Great collection!!
Having grown up playing in orchestras, I don't feel like the piccolo (flute) should be on the uncommon list! ❤️
ME TOO!
It's in my non-orchestra band lol, it really isn't uncommon
right
Yeah! If you ask a school if you can rent a piccolo they let you. I play piccolo as a second instrument other than flute and it’s totally normal
My band literally marches piccolo

The dude on the right at 1:40 looks and moves like one of those battery operated puppets you find at a gift shop
he barely moves and it scares me
It looks like hes lagging 🙂 like on tv the mouth does not match up to what's being spoken, i feel like his mouth doesn't match the music
right his mouth is leaving the instrument at the times it plays like 𝗇𝗈𝗍 𝗁𝗈𝗐 𝗍𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝗐𝗈𝗋𝗄𝗌
@@caydenheddleston4810 not to go all band nerd on yah, but larger instruments do irl lag because the lower the note then the slower the air so the note takes a while to make it all the way through

3:50 that piccolo French horn is sooo cute
The piccolo flute is actually very common. Most of these instruments are uncommon. Most people don’t know that the Subcontrabass Saxophone and Big Carl the Tuba even exist
yes we had a bunch of piccolo players at my old school
I really like the timbre of the contrabass clarinet. Moody, smoky, mysterious.
It can even make a sound similar to the string bass!
Therapist: large saxophone doesn’t exist it can’t hurt you
large sax: - sax sounds -
Your pfp is too accurate for this comment.
What song is this

i read that as “sex sounds”
Bass saxophone or subcontrbass saxophone
Piccolo Flutes are a common instrument as they are commonly used in high school marching bands.

Well, nobody will find you until someone plays the instrument.
that contrabass clarinet makes an unbelievably good sound
Bass flute: I’m the best
Subcontrabass flute: Hold my flute

Also subcontrabass saxophone: stuffs man in bell and starts playing
Bassoon: No! I’m the best.
1:21 was that a sqUEAK I HEARD?!

Bruhh 😂
Squeaks are actually considered notes, but hes also playing a piccolo clarinette
Human error and it sounded like the correct note
may have been an overtone
0:49 There's gotta be some easier way to make thar sound...
Sub flutes sound better with a whole band. Double Contras (bigger than that) are the Lowest instrument of most bands
I’m so glad this wasn’t clickbait. Thank you for not wasting my time. 😊
The piccolo flute is pretty common
JerryTortoise. yeah that's what I was thinking!
I agree. Piccolo is not so rare.
It's called _less common_ for a reason
u think JulY
@Chris Jarvis No, there isn't. The prefix 'Piccolo' can be applied to any instrument to describe a half-size or smaller version of it, but the term Piccolo on its own is used to refer to the piccolo flute - it has its roots in Italian classical music, where it is referred to as the Flauto Piccolo (meaning piccolo flute) - they are the same instrument though, one name has just been used as a shortened version for use in scores etc. and has become the commonplace name.
0:54 My dad told me to learn the flute instead of the bassoon because it’ll be more portable
do bassoon, even though flute is easy to carry, basson case is the size of about a alto sax/trumpet case
GET A DUBBLE CONTRABASS FLUTE. Acually do it.
The basson is quite portable.
But my bassoon is so heavy and bulky....
