Happy Monday Friends! We have a Brand New Euphonium Solo with Brass Band Version of "The King's Gambit" arranged for you by Anneke Kamerman today. This piece was commissioned by Fabien Décaillet as a gift for his newborn son, Alexis. "The King's Gambit" is aimed at including elements of modern progressive style alongside a more standard virtuosic euphonium style commonly featured in traditional euphonium repertoire. The compositional style focuses on complex and highly syncopated rhythmical grooves with a minimalist harmonic style, found in modern-day rock and pop music. The piece demonstrates extreme range, finger dexterity, coordination of multiple-tonguing techniques, flexibility, and breath control which are normally expected in academic repertoire.

The game (and the piece) is divided into three major sections which correlate to stages and specific moves in a chess match.
1) Opening: 1.e4 e5 2.f4...
2) Middlegame, including Queen Sacrifice (cadenza section)
3) Endgame
The overarching design of the piece is shown in the interplay between the euphonium and the ensemble. In the early stages of the piece (the game), the soloist and the band trade blows, but everything shifts at the Queen Sacrifice with the euphonium taking dominance in the game. The Endgame plays out the euphonium’s attaining a position so strong that Checkmate# is inevitable.

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!
Absolute banger... I love this rendition even more than the first time....
Much appreciated!
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
From one Euphonium Emperor to another, that was sick!🤘
This makes difficulty fun again, Euphonium strike s back!
Yes indeed!
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!
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!
Still insane solo. I love hearing the whole ensemble
Thank you!
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 !)
Very kind of you Mathieu, appreciate your kind words friend!
Bro your sound is absolutely pristine. Keep making beautiful sounds, man.
Thank you Daniel!
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!!!!
Killed it. 🔥
I only watch it again and again but i don`t belive it. You are incredible!!! Thanks for share it.
Amazing ！I hope one day I can play like this
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!
Everytime I hear this, it always gives me Fly or Die vibes, and I love it
Glad you enjoyed 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
This was always my favorite piece from you. The other instruments add so much. Thank you for playing!!
Glad you enjoyed it friend!
I also love how the piece (video) is devided by actual moves or terms used in chess. Also great playing 👍
Legendary
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
@@DylanPlaysGuitar_ Glad you enjoyed it and appreciate your comments friend!
honey to my ears
Glad you liked it!
Как музыкант восхищён исполнительским мастерством, огромное спасибо!
you know you've made it when you can play as good as Matonizz.
I would honestly love to play this solo on my Euphonium one day!
Fantastic playing! Bravo! 👏 😊
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!!!
Thank you very much friend!
so nice
Thank you!
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!
Thanks so much Dale, what you said is exactly what we're trying to do here. Appreciate your support friend!
Absolutely amazing! Beautifully song, catchy, and so very well played!!
Thank you!
Loving these!
Thank you nyancs!
Fantastic playing! Bravo!
Thank you!
“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 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
Thats amazing, those rhythms and octave leaps blows my mind
Thank you Jack!
Matoniz, my golly gosh...amazing technical prowess here. Love this even more than the first time I heard it. ❤😮
I love it so much!!!🎶😍🎺
What a banger execution...idk what more I could add
It was just amazing
Cant stop listening to this 🔥🔥🔥
That super F was insane
Love this song, thank you for revisiting it
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love it
Thank you!
god damn that's impressive, i wish i will have this level one day
amazing
Thank you Jitsu!
This is amazing 😊
Thank you!
Merci pour cette démonstration de maîtrise, vous me donnez envi de bosser encore plus mon instrument... Et j'ai débuté il y a seulement un an
Espetacular
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!
I hope to be able to play this one day
Holy this is so amazing. The percussion gives it a whole new feeling, especially in at 2:30
Thank you!
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.
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!
This is sick
Thank you!
it"S really so good !!!
Thank you!
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.
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)
i’m thankful that you have such a supportive community, i’ve never ever seen a negative comment
You know what they said about comments :D If you start seeing bad ones it means you finally made it :D
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!
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!
Now i have THIS TO LEARN? Amazing
This is the way to go!
fANTASTIC!
Thank you Bill!
Bravo
Thank you friend!
Now all i got to do is convince my band director to schedule this piece (and put in a decade of practice)
My daughter is starting euphonium and we started listening to your music. Unbelievable tone, skill, and range. We need to figure out how you can play those high notes so well.
Thank you! Make sure to check my educational video playlist, you'll find numerous videos on range that will be helpful :)
And he sacrificed…. HIS CHOOOOOOOPS
Yep, that's one per night type of cadenzas :D
and he sacrificed... HIS LUNGS
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
Thank you!
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!
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
👏🏽 👏🏽🔥🔥
Шедеврально! Класс!
Thank you!
Grandioso
Thank you!
Now words.. far beyond my skills.. so good so fast super sound..
Thank you Patrick
this is awesome love this. also nice to incorporate a chess game storyline in the piece. love that
Glad you enjoyed it!
🌿🤝Beautiful performance, always play to the delight of the listeners. I wish you all the best
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!
5:38
Go heavy or go home :D
Wonderful, can we have it on spotify as well as the piano version ?
Thank you. Just uploaded it yesterday so the brass band version should come up on spotify either today or in the next couple of days :)
обалдеть!!!!!
Thank you!
@@Matonizz You Have game lessons on UA-cam?
Bro wtf, fucking sickkkkkkk
Much appreciated!
This is so impressive! Such a great solo! You are a master, or better to say a god on this instrument!
The only thing I would like to mention, I would have the Euphonium in the mix something like 3dB to 6dB louder. The drums could be -3dB.
And regarding the score: is the Euphonium tuned in Bb? Because the score seems to be in Cm, but the actual key is Bb. I am playing the trumpet and the flugelhorn and both are tuned in Bb.
Thank you Artin for kind words and your feedback. Euphonium reads either Bb Treble clef or Concert Pitch Bass clef, with BC being more common which is the reason for part in score being concert pitch. However, the parts come in both TC and BC :)
@@Matonizz thank you for your explanation!
Hey Drew and all, you did it once again. Loved how the brass band "fought back" in the duel between to the two sides. Quick question> how many other instruments actually were being played? =) Great music, guys! My hat's off to you!
Not sure exactly what you mean with this question, but in general, if you see it there above, it's on the recording. Eb soprano, 2 to 4 solos (depending on divisis), repieno, 2nd & 3rd 2 to 4 (depending), flugel, 3 horns, 3 trombones, 1 to 2 baritones, 1 to 2 euphs, 2 tubas, percussion. To save time, we only recorded lines that were needed, with minimal doubling. (Sorry so slow to respond. I don't get notifications on this channel, and Algirdas gets a billion comments a day so neither of us saw this...I only noticed it by chance because I randomly navigated to this video and saw my name in the comments.)
@@TheMusicofDrewFennell, no problem. I appreciate your comments. You guys are my "heroes" in the field of brass music! Love your work.
@@ChilesailorDR, thanks. It’s a grind trying to keep this pace. It helps to know people appreciate the effort.
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/
@@Matonizz thank you so much!
What mouthpiece do you use here?
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.
Wow , your are very talented .... look so easy when you play it . Just wondering how may hours you play each day ?
It varies nowadays since my schedule gets busy, but usually between 1-4 hours
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 :)
@@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!
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 :)
What an amazing performance and arrangement. Thank you for giving us the wonderful sound produced by a very accomplished musician on the euphonium.
Glad you enjoyed it friend!
amazing! how long did this take you to learn and play to this standard?
Thank you! I've been playing euph for almost 25 years now, but to learn something like this it takes around couple of months :)
@@Matonizz how do you play runs so accurately and consistantly
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 :)
1:54
Sorry mate! How long did it take you to fully play this song?
Couple of months :)
Where can I get the sheet music?
www.matonizz.com/product/the-kings-gambit/
Is there a bass clef sheet version? I only see treble.
Yep, both bass and treble :)
@@Matonizz thank you!
@@Matonizz also, I play the Baritone for jazz band since we have no trombones, we play this song chameleon and I'm supposed to do the solo, do you... Have any advice for it? I can't seem to move my fingers fast enough with the song shahahaha
this could be done with at least one year of experience.
I could easily get one of those notes right
At least :D
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
