Fantastic is about all I can say. The range, timing, and the other instruments behind you are perfect. LOVE it. Thank you so much for sharing your great talent. Again it is FANTASTIC.
What a banger... Wonderful tone, magnificient arrangement, truly inspiring ! Thank you so much for your work Matonizz, I think a lot of people want to practice after listening to your playing (me included !)
Yea, keep going with these catchy peices. I love to see a channel with the Euphonium as its main instrument, and you just bring it justice. Long story short, keep up the amazing work!
Awesome!! I really feel like this channel is going to blow up in the near future… You’re basically pioneering your own genre of content here on YT, after all. With content of this quality and consistency, I think your backlogs are going to get a lot of views too! Keep grinding!
Crazy! I’m also a euphonium player that is going to continue throughout college. I’m a senior in high school and still try to practice as much as I can! Your one of the best euphonium players I’ve seen!
Your performance has left me speechless. I’m trying to come up with something to say and nothing I come up with seems like it’s enough. Your talent is on another level. Just wow.
Would depend on the level you're playing at. I'd highly recommend you check my educational video playlist. You will be able to find many routines, methods and exercises that will for sure cater to your playing and progress. Hope this helps friend!
When I was your age, I used to pick hardest pieces as well. It is not the best choice for success of performing those pieces but it is fantastic for pushing yourself to fast track the development of your technique :)
This and the original is some of the best music I've ever heard. Do you have any suggestions for high school euphonium solos with concert band accompaniment? I found this video(and channel) looking for one and am curious to hear any suggestions.
Wow this is killer!!! Any tips about range stuff? That’s my only weak point. Definitely listening to this stuff before my all state audition next weekend. Also what are your thoughts on DCI I’m curious.
Thank you! Make sure to check my ed videos on range. I made numerous vids on this topic, I'm sure it will help you a lot. Also, good luck with audition! Which state btw? DCI is super cool although I've never done it myself :)
I love the breaking/reforming rhythms and extreme octave leaps! Inspiring playing! I'd need to practice 32h/18d a week to get back up to this level. WOW
The king has responded! If I knew you would I probably would've made a more serious response, both the piece and your playing are fantastic, the Queen Sacrifice section is phenomonal
From a trumpet player with is euph-curious lol this really makes me want to make the purchase, though I suspect with the incredible tone you make I may be sad when I'm shit haha
Oh wow! Just wow! Great playing and I agree has to be THE MOST HARD (INSANE) Euphonium solo. It spans five octaves playing the 8va/8vb option and not a real friendly key either in my book (lots of 2-3 fingerings not to mention accidentals). Very well done!!!
Euphonium - an instrument, commonly used in British brass band setting to play solos accompanied by less skilled cornet players. That's what it says in wiki 🤔
How does one achieve this? I'm speechless I want to learn this song asap. My music teachers say im gifted but i just find music to easy but this song was a whole other story.
Seu timbre e seu talento, Realmente são admiráveis, com certeza és uma, das melhores referências em Euphonium!! Muito obrigado por compartilhar seu conteúdo conosco! Abraço
After playing it for a decade straight homie wished he could forget it :D ua-cam.com/video/_fkZv7dsjJE/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/pVE2aaCuTE0/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/RP5ODZJZq8o/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/uRJsfGhVISI/v-deo.html
I stumbled across your videos when I took up euphonium again after 24 year. You've helped inspire me to play better and improve my embouchure thru your tutorials. Tha k you. That was an excellent performance on this piece! Something I would likely never master, but aspire to! Cheers
OMG HIIII this is such a stunning sound, i would love to be able to play like you one day, i am a beginner player and i see you as a role model honestly, i love all of the music you play so much, the pieces are all so unique.
I don't know, seems pretty easy, I could easily have this down in a few decades.
I know, it only took me 25 years so pretty spot on on the estimate :D
25 years?!?! It’s been 63 1/2 years and then I realized that I can’t read
Bro same though.
LOL 😵💫😱😀😀😀
i bet bro's stil trying to play this song to this day. it would certainly take me 11 months for sure. atleast to get to the same level as matonizz.
As a euphonium player I’m completely blown away! This is amazing and your very talented nice job
Thank you Miles!
Fantastic is about all I can say. The range, timing, and the other instruments behind you are perfect. LOVE it. Thank you so much for sharing your great talent. Again it is FANTASTIC.
Thank you very much Sandra. Always appreciate your kind comments and support. Glad you enjoyed the composition!

Very kind of you Mathieu, appreciate your kind words friend!
Absolute banger... I love this rendition even more than the first time....
Much appreciated!
Bro your sound is absolutely pristine. Keep making beautiful sounds, man.
Thank you Daniel!
Yea, keep going with these catchy peices. I love to see a channel with the Euphonium as its main instrument, and you just bring it justice. Long story short, keep up the amazing work!
Much appreciated! I put a lot of work in these so it's great to hear back when people enjoy it :)
@@Matonizzlove it!
This makes difficulty fun again, Euphonium strike s back!
Yes indeed!
I would honestly love to play this solo on my Euphonium one day!
Absolutely amazing! Beautifully song, catchy, and so very well played!!
Thank you!

Thanks so much Dale, what you said is exactly what we're trying to do here. Appreciate your support friend!
Matoniz, my golly gosh...amazing technical prowess here. Love this even more than the first time I heard it. ❤😮
god damn that's impressive, i wish i will have this level one day
Thats amazing, those rhythms and octave leaps blows my mind
Thank you Jack!
Now all i got to do is convince my band director to schedule this piece (and put in a decade of practice)
Crazy! I’m also a euphonium player that is going to continue throughout college. I’m a senior in high school and still try to practice as much as I can! Your one of the best euphonium players I’ve seen!
Practice long tones and holding an even note.
Cant stop listening to this 🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic playing! Bravo! 👏 😊
This is amazing 😊
Thank you!
Your performance has left me speechless. I’m trying to come up with something to say and nothing I come up with seems like it’s enough. Your talent is on another level. Just wow.
Very kind of you Jose, appreciate your comment friend!
Love this! I will show this off to my brother who plays Euphonium. I play alto sax in middle school, and my brother's a freshman in high. Great video!
Much appreciated friend!
Matonizz, You are James Morrison on Euphonium, the way You play it is sickly good, amazingly high, simply unbeatable!!!!😀😀😀👍👍👍
Thank you, that's a very flattering comparison. He's one of my fav players. Glad you enjoyed the playing friend!
Me, a High School Euph: I wanna do that but I don't know how!
It takes a bit of time to develop the skill. Make sure to check my educational video playlist for some help :)
Fantastic playing! Bravo!
Thank you!
That's just nuts! WoW! Fantastically Unbelievable!
Thank you Bill, glad you enjoyed it friend!
@@Matonizz what you all accomplish is Outstanding!
@@lotsabirds Truly appreciate it!
insane work. What practice would you recommend for a highschool level player?
Would depend on the level you're playing at. I'd highly recommend you check my educational video playlist. You will be able to find many routines, methods and exercises that will for sure cater to your playing and progress. Hope this helps friend!
This is really cool, do you have tips on how to get better tone, especially in the higher parts?
You are truly a machine… not once did you falter in the long form of this video. Respect 🫡
Thank you very much friend, appreciate your kind words!
this is awesome love this. also nice to incorporate a chess game storyline in the piece. love that
Glad you enjoyed it!
it"S really so good !!!
Thank you!
Bravo
Thank you friend!
I’m on my fourth year… do you think something like this is possible for me?
When I was your age, I used to pick hardest pieces as well. It is not the best choice for success of performing those pieces but it is fantastic for pushing yourself to fast track the development of your technique :)
This and the original is some of the best music I've ever heard. Do you have any suggestions for high school euphonium solos with concert band accompaniment? I found this video(and channel) looking for one and am curious to hear any suggestions.
Thank you! It would depend on the level of the player, but I good high school challenge would be Rhapsody for Euphonium by Curnow
@@Matonizz Thank you for the advice, I watched some recordings and I am gonna look into music with my lesson teacher.
this could be done with at least one year of experience.
обалдеть!!!!!
Thank you!
@@Matonizz You Have game lessons on UA-cam?
Where can I get the sheet music?

@@Matonizz Alright thank you and will do! Yeah DCI is super cool, I’m actually marching Carolina crown this year! State is Virginia btw.
@@DRKSTARakaAstrogabe Got it. Good luck with audition again! If you ever decide to study music, I'd be happy to welcome you at Seton Hill in PA :)
@@Matonizz Thank you!
@@Matonizz I ended up getting 4th Concert Band. Definitely could’ve done a lot better but I’ll take it!
pretty damn good..........even though it is not a ....................TUBA!!!!
But imagine how easily this can give you J-Lo lips
honestly how long did it take to learn it ??😂
Few months. But again, I already knew the texture well before I even started practicing since I wrote it :D
@@Matonizz wow thats amazing mate good luck in the future God bless
I can get this if I just slow it down by A FUCK TON
That would be a good starting plan :D
Why does it sound so slow in .75 speed, but in normal speed it sounds like it’s in x500 😭🙏
:D
That tone quality is truly magnificent especially on those octave plus slurs. This is the euphonium version of fly or die for trombone
Glad you enjoyed it!
FLY OR DIE, on the other hand, is a children's song
I love the breaking/reforming rhythms and extreme octave leaps! Inspiring playing! I'd need to practice 32h/18d a week to get back up to this level. WOW
Thank you very much Wayne. Glad you enjoyed and appreciate your support friend!
From one Euphonium Emperor to another, that was sick!🤘
This was always my favorite piece from you. The other instruments add so much. Thank you for playing!!
Glad you enjoyed it friend!
Still insane solo. I love hearing the whole ensemble
Thank you!
And he sacrificed…. HIS CHOOOOOOOPS
Yep, that's one per night type of cadenzas :D
and he sacrificed... HIS LUNGS
That super F was insane
I love how dramatic it is! Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much!
...and people wonder why I love the euphonium as the "ultimate brass instrument" when it comes to tone and musical expression! Well done!!!!
Как музыкант восхищён исполнительским мастерством, огромное спасибо!
Holy hell
Thank you!
The king has responded! If I knew you would I probably would've made a more serious response, both the piece and your playing are fantastic, the Queen Sacrifice section is phenomonal

Amazing ！I hope one day I can play like this
I only watch it again and again but i don`t belive it. You are incredible!!! Thanks for share it.
Killed it. 🔥
WOW THIS AMAZING AS A FELLOW EUPHONIUM PLAYER I CAN SAY THAT THIS IS TRULY INSPIRING
Appreciate your kind comment friend!
@@Matonizz THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR REPLYING

What mouthpiece do you use here?
Man, those cornets sure do sound good. Just sayin'. ... Euphonium? What euphonium? 😜
Euphonium - an instrument, commonly used in British brass band setting to play solos accompanied by less skilled cornet players. That's what it says in wiki 🤔
@@Matonizz lol
I also love how the piece (video) is devided by actual moves or terms used in chess. Also great playing 👍
How does one achieve this? I'm speechless I want to learn this song asap. My music teachers say im gifted but i just find music to easy but this song was a whole other story.
so nice
Thank you!
Put the video speed at like 1.25 or 1.5 and it then sounds crazy
Everytime I hear this, it always gives me Fly or Die vibes, and I love it
Glad you enjoyed it!
I could easily get one of those notes right
At least :D
I love how this is as hard as it should be, and not can be.
Legendary
Holy this is so amazing. The percussion gives it a whole new feeling, especially in at 2:30
Thank you!
This is why you practice your Arban's exercises!

This is just amazing with a lot of work I have to surpass you
this is fucking insane...

Go heavy or go home :D
“Download and play along” sureeeeeeee
It's actually more comfortable to play than it looks :D

Bro this song is the best of both worlds, chess AND euphonium. This is by far the best song ive ever heard.
Thank you!
I would love to hear a DCI Corp pull this off. Looking at you Carolina Crown!!!
LET'S GO!!!

Hi!
We able to get a simpler version for euphonium?? 😂
Actually yes :D it's already done just not released yet. Keep an eye for it ;)
Is the entire score available for purchase? Like this one- without piano on your website? Love your playing!
Thank you and yes, I've just finished uploading it few minutes ago. www.matonizz.com/product/the-kings-gambit/

Sorry mate! How long did it take you to fully play this song?
Couple of months :)
When you say, "Baritone B.C." or "Baritone T.C.", do you mean a 3-valved baritone, or a 4-valved baritone?
BC stands for bass clef.
TC stands for treble clef.
@@bobcat24I know, I was wondering if there was a difference in the Baritone and the Euphonium
I stumbled across your videos when I took up euphonium again after 24 year. You've helped inspire me to play better and improve my embouchure thru your tutorials. Tha k you.
That was an excellent performance on this piece! Something I would likely never master, but aspire to!

Did you cater to the masses?
Not sure if I understand the questions :)
My favorite part is Middlegame,
I also love watching these and slightly learning them! (I’m new to euph but have played trumpet for 5 years)
What a banger execution...idk what more I could add
It was just amazing
fANTASTIC!
Thank you Bill!
you know you've made it when you can play as good as Matonizz.
Hs how
Thank you!
If some form of this could be incorporated into a dci show, would be sick. Crown preferably
Nag them to reach out to me and we'll make it work :D
@@Matonizz I wish I had those connections but I bet Matt Harloff would be the ticket to actually make it happen or push for it🫡
@@Matonizzi can imagine the middle game and onward on the field and it is 🤌
