I've had some golden instructions in my music as well, being a tuba player. "ASSES" is a classic part name Once on a really loud and low note it just said "Baltic sea ferry". "Put instrument on shoulder and fire like a rocket launcher" On music I arranged myself I made sure to put "with murderous intent" in the cello part.
Nice story to tell us about these threatening music notation moments! And quick question, do you remember the name of the cancelled song that had the notation reading “PP very soft”?
5:54 I've actually seen this musical. It's called "seussical" which is a musical with different dr Seuss characters that'll make you wonder afterward whether or not taking those gummies was a good idea. Gertrude is a bird in this play with a "one feathered tail" and the pills are for making her tail grow. And the bird girls are other characters in the play from another dr Seuss book. Some useless info for ya. If you wanna take an acid trip without being on drugs, I'd recommend watching seussical. Thank me later :))
1:45 Its a dotted natural, it means that you play that the sound of the natural is 1.5 times longer which means more sound but less sound and longer but sound travel but goes out of the music into the ear via the instrument when you press the note on the trombone.

Although the comment you commented was in fact not quite easy to understand the satisfaction that understanding it gave me satisfaction and made me satisfies but I was actually not very satisfied because I had spent a lot of time trying to understand the comment which was not very satisfying but thanks to my hard work of trying to understand what you had commented paying off I was at the end quite satisfied thanks to finally after so much hard work and toil and moil and toilsome moil being able to finally understand what your comment that you had commented meant after trying to understand what you had meant by your comment which you had commented.

Yeah, we’re doing some Hanukkah song in band this year and one of the trumpets is going to do a horse whinny sound. It’s actually kinda funny to listen to while we’re practicing, I play the xylophone for that song and I have to stand right behind the person playing it lol.
1:27 has me giggling because we’re playing that piece and I laughed at that with my section for the entire rehearsal. I had to edit the time stamp because i included the wrong one!!
@@thecertifieddoctor idk if the time stamp worked lmao, there was a part of the video where the notation was “I’m said and lonely” or something along those lines. It’s a piece called Kentucky 1800 lmao
Thank you for the viewer discretion advisement! Rather than be offended, annoyed or disgusted by your video (likely resulting in a dislike), I can just not watch it. Brilliant!
Holy shit this video blew up So uhhhhhh to the newcomers Please check out my other stuff I made some songs and some shitty covers from when i was 13 or sth please check them out
The funniest ones to me are the ones where it has the most over-descriptive and complicated description for playing up the top like "Slowly, yet sporadic, akin to (but not entirely like) a small creature carefully observing their predator, considering whether to flee or not, along with some undertones of anxiety and fear, with perhaps a mere hint of calm." but then it's just a bunch of rest for like half the song.
The “Gertrude popping pills” thing is from Seussical. I was in that show last year and let me tell you, it is a wild trip of a musical. The reason she’s taking pills in the first place is to grow a tail.
the lyric in 6:00 is basically 1 to 7 in japanese. with 一 (いち)、ニ(に)、三(さん)、四 (し)、五(ご)、六(ろく)、and 七(しち) as their kanji (in order). and please do remember that there are multiple ways to read the same kanji!
"Lesbianly. I don't know if I should laugh at this" I don't know if this counts but as a bi woman, I personally found it hilarious so I feel like you're in the clear.
As someone who knows "lesbianly" isn't a real word (which makes it funny) and anyway would probably not usually describe music (which makes it funnier) while not alluding directly to, say, a harmful stereotype (like it doesn't seem to mean "play roughly, badly, in a way that's predatory to women and threatening to men" or whatever)... And as a lesbian lol, I just enjoy mincing words on the internet... This checks out.
Fun fact: when I was like 14, I tried to write the most complex piece of music I could think of. It was basically that piece that's all 128th notes, except I tried to slip in a few 256th notes as well. It was also unreadable garbage because I hand wrote that bitch using standard lines paper instead of staff paper. It was also in 4/4 at 200bpm. So theoretically it WAS playable, if you could read it and count it. I was still too young to think in time signatures and instead made up for it with sheer note density
@@princealigorna7468 Not even theoretically. Even 32nd notes at 200 are approaching impossibility. 256ths at 200 BPM would be 213 notes per second. Your instrument would probably catch on fire.
@@landrypierce9942 Damn, I really was a dumb kid. Are you sure about the 32nd note thing though. Pretty sure most death metal and grindcore bands do that in their sleep. 16th notes at 200 bpm for them is considered playing slow
@@princealigorna7468 Not dumb, just a regular kid. I was doing the same things. As for death metal bands, I have no idea what kind of things they’re doing these days.
2:24 Quiet sobs are heard from the wind section. The entire low brass section is drinking whiskey straight from the bottle. A single gunshot rings out from the violins.
6:49 I know this piece! It's by Terre Thaemlitz, an experimental musician and artist who is probably best known for her house music under the alias DJ Sprinkles, and there's actually a pretty pointed conceptual angle to it about art as labour, which is part of why the minimum performance length is ever so slightly too long to fit on a normal CD. I've heard part of the definitive version on Soulnessless, and it's… strangely relaxing?
7:33 Hansel and Gretel is a wonderful opera, and the evening prayer is even better in the overture, where the horns get to play it. No dissing the opera writing Engelbert Humperdinck (you can diss the one who named himself after him though).
On the labelling C as A. My electric keyboard is labelled that way, one of my roommates borrowed it without asking (he didn't know it was mine) and labelled all the keys incorrectly. I left the labels because I find them funny.
This guy is so good… he can hold a thirty-second note for thirty seconds! For those of you who either don’t know music or can’t do math, each measure lasts for 16 minutes.
Oh my god, I'm so happy. I didn't expect to see Little Shop in this. 1:09 if you don't know. I was the lead in that musical my senior year, it's so fun.
The best part is how many of them were instantly recognizable: Rautavaara’s first piano concerto, Sleigh Ride, and Black Angels just have such iconic notation for instance Edit: Almost forgot about the PepperCoyote song in there too
7:46 is from the musical Rock of Ages, and with the scene its from i can definitely believe that would be on the sheet music ahaha 'Come on feel the noise' was also on page 69
oh my god 5:57 is from seussical! thats was the first show i was ever in and for context gertrude mcfuzz is in love with Horton the elephant and to get his attention she takes pills that make her tail grow and the bird girls are a small ensemble group
1:26 I actually played this song in 7th grade 😂 it’s called Kentucky 1800 and I don’t remember the composer but it was really fun to play as a trombone 😂
4:57 I used that tempo once due to midi problems. the real tempo was derivating from 150, but i dont remember why it took me to 114.57 too. But I had to use it and that's all!
I've played the piece with "I'm Sad and I'm Lonely" written on it, it's called Kentucky-1800 and I can confirm that my friends and I were laughing at that
6:59 is just old notation! In more or less the early 1600's, back when they were still getting used to round noteheads instead of square ones, a lot of people would write the key signature accidentals on all possible octaves in the staff. So for example, G major in treble clef would have its usual sharp on the 5th line, but also a sharp on the 1st space! You can still see this in editions from that period in imslp! Eventually, the doubled accidentals were dropped for cleanliness and elegance.
If anybody was wondering about the sheet music at 6:20, that is sheet music for a SYNTHESIZER, and it sounds less like music, and more like the enviromental sounds for a cyberpunk rpg that takes place in the internet.
Sometimes, I see notation that just should not exist, know that people will have to learn and perform it, brush my hands of it, and feel grateful that I am merely a vocalist.
lol I played the part at 1:35, it's a technique for trumpets in which you half-press the pistons and "shake" the trumpet in order to make a sound similar to a horse, it's used in some christmas pieces (like sliegh bells ride or similar) to represent the horses carrying Santa's sleigh (even tho i thought they were reindeers...hmm...)
the 26 b's of microtonal music (with 1/12 tones) B double flat (just an A) B triple half flat down B double flat up B triple half flat B flat down B triple half flat up B flat (also an A sharp) B half flat down B flat up B half flat B natural down B half flat up B natural B half sharp down B natural up B half sharp B sharp down B half sharp up B sharp (just a C) B triple half sharp down B sharp up B triple half sharp B double sharp down B triple half sharp up B double sharp (also a C sharp) B QUIET
In the arrangement of Seven Nation Army I play in marching band, the second line is enclosed in a repeat with a note above it that says "Play until audience passes out"
i actually played the piece that said "I'm sad and i'm lonely". the song is westridge overture and the premise is that its compilation of folk songs from the south
3:24 Joke is, the note is in the track overview rather than the piano roll. The track doesn't have any patterns with notes in them; that one note *IS* the track
4:11 that’s how i sing when people are around. it makes it much easier for me to not let people hear, and even if they do, they won’t hear the lyrics at all
I think the 3 different tempos at the same time means there's supposed to be multiple people playing the same notes at different tempos which I find quite a horrifying idea
I believe "Gertrude keeps popping pills" and "bird girls" is from Seussical, the Doctor Seuss musical? So that helps explain the absurdity of that somewhat, if my memory is correct. Edit: Yeah Getrude McFuzz is a one-tail-feathered bird who's taking pills to grow more tailfeathers bc the other birds were bullying her, and she ends up with so many tailfeathers that she can't do anything without it being a hassle, and I know that bc I did stage crew on Seussical Jr. in intermediate school
My favorite thing I've seen in music is on measure 69, "with force"

In choir we had "very scary, like out of a primary kid's nightmare."
Ah yes the good old ass clarinet.
- a bass clarinet player
In the arrangement of Seven Nation Army I play in marching band, the second line is enclosed in a repeat with a note above it that says "Play until audience passes out"
2:06 I didn't even NOTICE that... ...Because I was busy wondering how A is ALSO Ab AND A#!!!! 😂😂😂😂
These are like reading the funniest Sims patch notes, thank you
Being a band geek myself, I'm gonna say it was all hilarious and relatable
5:52 That's from Seussical. I never realized how weird it would sound out of context
as a trombonist, half of these would eviscerate my slide
"Okay, what's the tempo of this piece?"
"WHO GIVES A FUCK?!"
5:57 THE TINKLE OF CONTAGION
bfb 6: 7:56 was my favorite part
There’s the twinkle of contagion, the tinkle on the cymbal, and the attachement thimbles.
2:34
is an effects collage by Steve Vai. Think it's Alien Water Kiss but not sure. It's a joke, not real notation.
3:24... it should be on piano roll, WHY TF IS THIS SO FUNNY!?!?!? LMFAO
3:00 rautavaara piano concerto no.1, also good to hear
1:35 This is in Sleigh Ride, I played it with my orchestra. We, the trumpet, had a blast with this part! Its surprising easy and fun!
1:17 They really got their music looking like a subway map
S h u t u p .
i actually played the piece that said "I'm sad and i'm lonely". the song is westridge overture and the premise is that its compilation of folk songs from the south
0:52 I'm a lesbian and allow you to laugh at this.
I just wanna know what it’s from because I love a good song played lesbianly
@@link_is_here22 yeah
As a transsexual person, no
@@link_is_here22where is that song from? WHERE IS IT FROM?
same
I can’t even read normal sheet music, and this terrifies me.
7:25
Tony AND Jeff?
Someone's been playing EarthBound.
5:58 “hah, you mean tinkle of contagion?”
I can relate to the ASS clarinet because I play bass clarinet and sometimes it gets cut off on my music 😅
as a baritone (euphonium) player, I find the "psst hey what measure are we on" incredibly relatable.
3:24 Joke is, the note is in the track overview rather than the piano roll. The track doesn't have any patterns with notes in them; that one note *IS* the track
There is a piece called music for revolution where the sheet directs you to gauge your eyes out over a period of 5 years.
Bro you are legit hillarious. Im so glad i stumbled across you XD
This made me remember that pic of the rests that just kept getting faster, no notes just anxiety
This piece is called, ‘Anxiety’.
It’s just silence, but it keeps getting faster…
6:08 That is a real song.
4:11 that’s how i sing when people are around. it makes it much easier for me to not let people hear, and even if they do, they won’t hear the lyrics at all
i got legit scared when you pronounced the tones in a perfect italian accent
1:58 was not expecting to see a song from the blast radius album here
(0:00) Thanks for warning me.
1:22 they be building a computer with the music sheet.
RIP George Crumb
1:57 Context: this song was sponsored by bad dragon. You know, the adult toy company
I think the 3 different tempos at the same time means there's supposed to be multiple people playing the same notes at different tempos
which I find quite a horrifying idea
That's just your typical high school band.
I believe "Gertrude keeps popping pills" and "bird girls" is from Seussical, the Doctor Seuss musical? So that helps explain the absurdity of that somewhat, if my memory is correct.
Edit: Yeah Getrude McFuzz is a one-tail-feathered bird who's taking pills to grow more tailfeathers bc the other birds were bullying her, and she ends up with so many tailfeathers that she can't do anything without it being a hassle, and I know that bc I did stage crew on Seussical Jr. in intermediate school
