@@vmprie you see that's definitely where the violin is a better instrument, for defending one self, you have the bow which you can stab people's eyes thus giving you the fighting advantage, and you also got the violin which you can use for smashing at people's heads. To conclude the violin is a very practical at fighting and great at playing music, remember you never know when someone could break into you house, better to be safe than sorry... I'm sorry but did I over think This?
@@Shay-ul2bg but not considering this video, I have to argue the bassoon is the best for defending yourself. The bamboo reed is perfect for stabbing people with, and you can always wack them with the bell. And yes, i think we both over thought this... 😂
I haven't watched, but having played both, I feel like this will be easier for him. The flute is just buttons. The violin has like... an attitude problem.
I also play both, and yeah flute is easier, because you know that if you push some specific buttons you get it. The violin is more like: ,,you are a picometer too low. I’m out of tune.”
I play the chinese equivalent of both the flute and the violin, and I totally agree with this! But when I tell this to my flute buddies, they give me death stares instead 🤷🏻♀️
I play both the concert flute and violin, and I can tell you unequivocally that violin is a much harder instrument to learn. For starters, the violin has no frets. It takes muscle control, proper finger placement and an ear for each note to be played. I’ve been playing the violin for about five years now, and I only play it in the first two octaves. But since I only play lyrical tunes and hymns, all I need to know are the first two octaves. 😉 And after five years...I still can’t do a true wrist/arm vibrato. The best I can do is a fake finger vibrato. 😖 🎻 🎶
Same though. That's why I just switched to cello. I played one in a violin shop and I immediately sounded better than after months on violin. I also play piano, guitar, bass, ukulele, and trumpet too though, so 🤷♂️
єνєlуи i'm still struggling with proper bow handling, i wanted to cut off my pinky but my teacher said its important for balance and pressure so wth :(
flute is harder because it requires your entire body (air, toungue, fingers,shoulders, proper embochure, etc.) its definitly an very phisically demanding . i havent played violin in 4 years but i still play flute and its definetly harder.
As a flute player, i think the flute is very hard in the beginning, but later it gets easier since you are getting used to the fingering and stuff. However, I think both the flute and the violin are very hard instruments to learn 🤷🏻♀️
I can play hot cross buns and Mary had a little lamb on almost a dozen instruments (in order of best to worst, bass clarinet, Bb clarinet, tenor sax, ukulele, guitar, piano, voice, ocarina, recorder, violin, and I have done it before on marimba and vibraphone.). The only instruments on that list that I would say I play at a intermediate level (possibly high intermediate but definitely not professional) are bass clarinet, tenor sax, Bb clarinet, and ukulele. Ones I’d say I’m more of a beginner at I’d guitars, piano, and voice. The other ones I just know how to play either just hot cross buns and Mary had I little lamb or maybe a little more than that (marimba and vibraphone I could play more and I have, I’m just not a percussionist so I basically just treat it the same as piano in my hand you just play it with mallets). I really want to learn all woodwind instruments, along with some brass instruments, and the instruments I said I’m more a beginner level at, and I also really really want to learn violin.
I was thinking hot cross buns when she said B, A, and G! I know those aren’t the notes for hot cross buns on the flute, but I could totally still play it on recorder to this day 😂

I’m 14 and started violin when i was much younger. It is hard to make a nice sound and have good intonation as a beginner. I started piano a few months ago and got to abrsm grade 3 standard in 4 months. With piano you don’t have the difficulty of playing out of tune and making a ‘wispy’ sound like on violin. You can play music that sounds nice immediately. However, playing with 2 hands at once and reading two clefs at the same time is hard. I feel like all instruments have their own difficulties so its hard to compare. Great video, thanks!
I definately think that you can have more talent or just have an easier time learning one instument than another. When I was younger I used to play the clarinet and I got a very good sound even at the first lesson. About two years ago I decided that I wanted to learn to play the violin and at least in the beginning it was so much harder than clarinet even though my teacher said that I sounded better than most beginners(it still sounded terrifying and my cat got so scared he wouldn't come into my room). But I guess violin is harder for beginners because there's so much to do at the same time, hold the bow correctly and straight, keep the other hand's posture, play in tune and syncronize the bowing with the other hand etc. I'm just happy that I started with clarinet because I would have given up so quickly if I started violin as a 10 year old😂.
When she started feeling bad about how bad she was at violin and how quickly he picked up on the flute but he kept making her feel better and not think like that warmed my heart :)
I play both flute and violin. Honestly I think the violin is easier to learn, but hard to make sound good. While the flute is harder to learn, but easier to make sound good once you know how to play.
@@strangeharmony1 that's not what I mean, I mean a longer string or longer chamber for air to resonate in (idk what you flutists call it) will make a lower pitched sound and vice versa. Edit: for example piccolo's are shorter than flutes because they need to hit higher notes
why would you say its harder to start to play the flute?? As a violin player I can pick up a flute and make a sound and play some tunes without ever having lessons, but I don't think I could have ever done that with a violin when I first started, intonation seems to be more difficult and making a nice sound obvs (so scratchy hahahah). Just curious?
Lizza Grace yes I totally agree with you. What I meant was for the average person, it is harder to make a single note on flute (where you can actually hear it) where as you can easily pick up a violin and bow it and it will make a sound. However once you can blow into flute it is a whole lot easier as violin is very technically harder
Flute is much easier than the violin, and the oboe is much harder than the flute. The bassoon is somewhere in-between the flute and oboe.Cello is pretty difficult too.
I play both as well. Started the flute in 5th grade and picked up the violin at 19. I would agree with you the flute is easier to perfect and the violin is harder to perfect. I also learned the violin on my own, no lessons.
She said violin was second to viola..... My viola heart..... (This is the first video of hers that I have seen, and I'm going to subscribe just for that.)
I knew this video was doomed from the moment I read the title 😂. It’s nothing against flute players, but violin is just WAY harder to learn than flute. Of course they each have their own intricacies that take a lifetime to develop, but starting out, violin and strings are just much more complex to figure out. Flute bonus: lower lever flute players sound way better than lower level violin players haha.
Watching this definitely makes the violin seem tougher. You have to hunt for every non-open note, AND you have to bow the note just right. I still think the flute's pretty tough too, even though having defined fingerings for each note probably helps. Your BF made it look easy, but I'm sure embouchure issues would have come into it if the notes had been farther apart. You two make a cute couple. Congrats to the BF on the new gig!
Katie and Jeremias this was a very enjoyable video! You two were so funny! I know how talented you both are. I’ve heard you play together seriously. Great to see your sense of humor! You two are too cute!
I started violin at 62, I little old, I do play the guitar and some piano, violin is hard and it requires lots of patience and perseverance to get to where it sound okay but it is a great instrument to get into. Piano is easier to star but it gets very complicated because of the amount of data you have to process quickly, well, if you enjoy music learn an instrument it will payoff in time.
Ling Ling is disappointed, you wanted to play the v I o L A. Even your boyfriend looked at you like, “W h Y?” I’m kidding but legit his face when you talked about wanting to be a violist cracked me up.
I'm new to your channel. You and Jeremias did really well on the others' instrument. And you are adorable together. Subscribed. PS for anyone confused by comments about Ling Ling, practice 40 hours a day, if you can play it slowly you can play it quickly... they're memes from a violin channel whose fans have clearly raided the comments lol
Violin is definitely harder to learn. I picked up my sisters flute in 10th grade, previously played clarinet, and taught myself in two days. That was 16 years ago. Played all through college and still play to this day. Love love love it!!!
I hate the flute, and am still perplexed to this day why I ever bothered learning to play it to excellent sight reading orchestral standard. I had to get off the cello and play 1st flute when our flautist broke her shoulder. It was horrible. In fact I'm going to lend my best flute out to our current 2nd flute.That's how much I don't care. meanwhile, nobody as much as even touches my cello!
I agree that the violin is harder to learn [Twoset has thoroughly informed me how complex the violin can really be], however, in the defense of the flutes, to become a professional flutist you must have a serious set of lungs on you. I'd also say that the position of the flute is more uncomfortable long term than the violin. In conclusion, flutes may be easier to learn, but they bring a lot of pain to make up for it too.
@@LoreCatan yeah I get where you're coming from but there are also many more hard things about the violin too. Violinists still have to worry about bow speed, bow pressure, hand-eye coordination, tuning, hitting the right string, shifting and more. Also, intonation is extremely hard as there are no frets like on guitar to guide you to the notes, so even with the tiniest variance of your fingers, the note will either be sharp or flat and overall, not sound good. Playing the violin requires you to coordinate and balance your entire body to get a decent sound. The spacing between the notes gets different as you work your way up the fingerboard to the higher notes too. It's ALSO different for every violin.
@@LoreCatan I never feel faint anymore, after playing flute for a year. But after 9 years of playing, my shoulder get so sore if my posture isnt perfect. And I permanently have minor nerve impingment on my left hand index finger where I hold the weight of the flute. So I have to take frequent practice breaks when it feels tingly. This wouldn't happen if I played violin lol i dont get how piano players can sit there for so long
Being Argentinian has this effect on you, where you are watching a video for any reason (for instance, classical music), then you hear "I'm from Córdoba" and you get all excited and then afterwards "a little town in Argentina" and you start screaming DALE CAMPEOOOON like a madman.
cup1cake 55 the sharps are always getting me. I don’t play flute or violin but opal clarinet and our region scale of three and a half octaves has so many sharps it kills me.
This was really fun to watch, especially since I play both flute (since age 12) and violin (since age 21). Even though I was so much older when I started violin, I would still say that it is much harder to learn than flute! But once you're adept at either instrument, both present their own unique challenges.
Me when I was younger... I'm going to learn flute it's going to be sooo easy. Me when I got a flute and a book:this is sooo easy. Later in life Flute and Book:I'm gonna end this mans whole career.
This looks so fun!! In undergrad I had to take a course were we dabbled attempting to play string instruments and I could very poorly play the violin. :)
BRO WHATTT HE LITERALLY PLAYED A NOTE ON THE FLUTE ON THE FIRST TRY AND IVE BEEN TRYING TO PLAY A NOTE ON MY FRIENDS FLUTE FOR 3 WEEKS NOW AND STILL CANT 😂😂😂
This is my boyfriend and I on our free time HAHAHAH he plays the basoon, piano and guitar . I play violin, and a bit of piano. We are always trading and failing miserably
Oh I was soooo excited for this video!!!! 😂😂 I feel like starting flute, depending on whether or not you can make a sound, is harder than starting violin. But I think learning violin is a bit harder than flute once you know flute basics lol
awww this is so sweet you to are adorable p.s. great job, i play both of those instruments (not very well lol) but ya'll did amazing for literally the first time playing those instruments👏

*"lesson 1: always hold the violin"*
Lesson 3: if you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly
Lesson 4: practise 40 hours.
Lesson 5 need to hire a teacher! 😂
Lesson 6: eat a scone
Lesson 7: cry because you can't play the violin properly
I play both violin and flute. I would say flute is harder to start but easier to perfect and violin is easier to start but wayyyyyy harder to perfect
why would you say its harder to start to play the flute?? As a violin player I can pick up a flute and make a sound and play some tunes without ever having lessons, but I don't think I could have ever done that with a violin when I first started, intonation seems to be more difficult and making a nice sound obvs (so scratchy hahahah). Just curious?
Lizza Grace yes I totally agree with you. What I meant was for the average person, it is harder to make a single note on flute (where you can actually hear it) where as you can easily pick up a violin and bow it and it will make a sound. However once you can blow into flute it is a whole lot easier as violin is very technically harder
@@rosiemeade7612 ahhh I see, thanks!!
Flute is much easier than the violin, and the oboe is much harder than the flute. The bassoon is somewhere in-between the flute and oboe.Cello is pretty difficult too.
I play both as well. Started the flute in 5th grade and picked up the violin at 19. I would agree with you the flute is easier to perfect and the violin is harder to perfect. I also learned the violin on my own, no lessons.
She said violin was second to viola.....
My viola heart.....
(This is the first video of hers that I have seen, and I'm going to subscribe just for that.)
Viola Gang! now go practice 40 hrs
EnvironmentalTrees :D but we play violas so ling ling 40 hours doesn’t apply to us technically
@Random Girl
omg so true thoo
*Ling Ling:* Of course the Violin is hard. I'm known for it for a reason
Love how at 12:51 she takes a breath before she plays 🤣🤣 flute players know
Analiese Corral more like every woodwind and brass instrument knows my guy.. 😂
Every wind instrument
Lol i think all musicians do the little breath
Just because the violin doesnt require air to make a sound doesnt mean that breathing isnt still important.
I knew this video was doomed from the moment I read the title 😂. It’s nothing against flute players, but violin is just WAY harder to learn than flute. Of course they each have their own intricacies that take a lifetime to develop, but starting out, violin and strings are just much more complex to figure out. Flute bonus: lower lever flute players sound way better than lower level violin players haha.
Have you ever tried to play flute?
Violin: Plays a lot of high fast notes
Flute: Plays a lot of high fast notes
Me: No longer has arm's or lungs
Ohooooooo. It's field day for Eddy and Brett.
Samanyu Venna AHHH Ling Ling is quakiiing!!!
Nobody is talking about how good their chemistry is. Made it that much more enjoyable.
The way she holds the bow bothers me lol 😂 sorry I had to point that out. Violin is extremely hard no joke.
“i almost played viola”
me - YOU COULDVE BEEN ONE OF US
2set hahaha
She would have loved it. Viola isn't just the instrument, it's a lifestyle.
It is never to late to join the Viola cult
This messaged brought to you by the viola gang
yessssss
Watching this definitely makes the violin seem tougher. You have to hunt for every non-open note, AND you have to bow the note just right. I still think the flute's pretty tough too, even though having defined fingerings for each note probably helps. Your BF made it look easy, but I'm sure embouchure issues would have come into it if the notes had been farther apart. You two make a cute couple. Congrats to the BF on the new gig!
Katie and Jeremias this was a very enjoyable video! You two were so funny! I know how talented you both are. I’ve heard you play together seriously. Great to see your sense of humor! You two are too cute!
I started violin at 62, I little old, I do play the guitar and some piano, violin is hard and it requires lots of patience and perseverance to get to where it sound okay but it is a great instrument to get into. Piano is easier to star but it gets very complicated because of the amount of data you have to process quickly, well, if you enjoy music learn an instrument it will payoff in time.
Ling Ling is disappointed, you wanted to play the v I o L A. Even your boyfriend looked at you like, “W h Y?”
I’m kidding but legit his face when you talked about wanting to be a violist cracked me up.
You guys are so cute!! This was a great idea. Loved it. Saludos a Jeremías desde Paraguay!
Ah this is so cuteee
I tried my friend's flute and I give up, I'll just stick to my violin😂😂😂
Njessness can relate, my boyfriend sounded 50 times better than I did when I first started
Same, I was like
Oh screw it! I’ll just go back to my violin and ukulele
I tried my friends violin and I sucked so I will just stick with the flute
Same! I couldn’t even get a sound out of it. Then she tried my violin and I felt a little better.
“I’m a little airhead” I’m totally using this with my students from now on!
I remember getting dizzy from blowing/breathing when I first began the flute. I haven't thought about that in decades.
Yay I was waiting for this! If you can play the flute, you can play the violin... ~Lee Ben
@@fphoellyickx8982 Ling ling came to this video 40 hours earlier than it was posted
LOL I’M DEAD 😂😂😂
If you can play it poorly, you can play it great!
Lingling can play both at the same time +
Yeah violin is very hard IF YOU ARE NOT LING LING 😂
This is exactly how I feel when I teach people how to play the violin
With the violin she still takes a breath in like she was going to start on flute and it's so cute 😂😂
SOMEBODY GET THIS TO TOWSET VIOLIN RIGHT NOW!!!
Yesssss
I'm new to your channel. You and Jeremias did really well on the others' instrument. And you are adorable together. Subscribed.
PS for anyone confused by comments about Ling Ling, practice 40 hours a day, if you can play it slowly you can play it quickly... they're memes from a violin channel whose fans have clearly raided the comments lol
Violin is definitely harder to learn. I picked up my sisters flute in 10th grade, previously played clarinet, and taught myself in two days. That was 16 years ago. Played all through college and still play to this day. Love love love it!!!
I hate the flute, and am still perplexed to this day why I ever bothered learning to play it to excellent sight reading orchestral standard. I had to get off the cello and play 1st flute when our flautist broke her shoulder. It was horrible. In fact I'm going to lend my best flute out to our current 2nd flute.That's how much I don't care. meanwhile, nobody as much as even touches my cello!
heather mcdougall It’s definitely not for everyone. My sister played flute for 4 years and put it down. She didn’t like it either.
Two incredibly talented musicians and an adorable couple. Wish you both many happy years ahead ❤️
"I almost played viola in grade 3; this is the next best thing..." #SacreligiousGirl
I agree that the violin is harder to learn [Twoset has thoroughly informed me how complex the violin can really be], however, in the defense of the flutes, to become a professional flutist you must have a serious set of lungs on you. I'd also say that the position of the flute is more uncomfortable long term than the violin. In conclusion, flutes may be easier to learn, but they bring a lot of pain to make up for it too.
bruh, holding a violin is so uncomfortable, I've been playing for 7 years and I still get back pain lol
@@crunchyycarrot359 well than the lung thing still stands. I wonder if flutists get faint after playing.
@@LoreCatan yeah I get where you're coming from but there are also many more hard things about the violin too. Violinists still have to worry about bow speed, bow pressure, hand-eye coordination, tuning, hitting the right string, shifting and more. Also, intonation is extremely hard as there are no frets like on guitar to guide you to the notes, so even with the tiniest variance of your fingers, the note will either be sharp or flat and overall, not sound good. Playing the violin requires you to coordinate and balance your entire body to get a decent sound. The spacing between the notes gets different as you work your way up the fingerboard to the higher notes too. It's ALSO different for every violin.
@Lyla Laycre same
@@LoreCatan I never feel faint anymore, after playing flute for a year. But after 9 years of playing, my shoulder get so sore if my posture isnt perfect.
And I permanently have minor nerve impingment on my left hand index finger where I hold the weight of the flute. So I have to take frequent practice breaks when it feels tingly. This wouldn't happen if I played violin lol i dont get how piano players can sit there for so long
Being Argentinian has this effect on you, where you are watching a video for any reason (for instance, classical music), then you hear "I'm from Córdoba" and you get all excited and then afterwards "a little town in Argentina" and you start screaming DALE CAMPEOOOON like a madman.
VAMOS ARGENTINAAA
Lol when he said "Jeremias" I knew he is from Argentina. Hola compatriota! Very proud of you. And you're a very nice and talented couple 🥰
„I don’t want to play sharp!”
cup1cake 55 the sharps are always getting me. I don’t play flute or violin but opal clarinet and our region scale of three and a half octaves has so many sharps it kills me.
I hate sharps. Why cant they just be a flat higher note.
This was really fun to watch, especially since I play both flute (since age 12) and violin (since age 21). Even though I was so much older when I started violin, I would still say that it is much harder to learn than flute! But once you're adept at either instrument, both present their own unique challenges.
He has a nice tone on the violin. Maybe you could do a few duets together.
When she was teaching him how to play the flute that is me trying to teach my sister how to play the flute😂
Me when I was younger... I'm going to learn flute it's going to be sooo easy.
Me when I got a flute and a book:this is sooo easy.
Later in life
Flute and Book:I'm gonna end this mans whole career.
I play violin, and when it's says V hard, I instantly thought upbow hard XD
This looks so fun!! In undergrad I had to take a course were we dabbled attempting to play string instruments and I could very poorly play the violin. :)
BRO WHATTT HE LITERALLY PLAYED A NOTE ON THE FLUTE ON THE FIRST TRY AND IVE BEEN TRYING TO PLAY A NOTE ON MY FRIENDS FLUTE FOR 3 WEEKS NOW AND STILL CANT 😂😂😂
Yeah I couldn't make and sound for 5 minutes
don't worry, that's UA-cam. Even if they say he is the absolute novice in flute playing, it doesn't have to be true.
Hows it going?
OMG me when I was a beginner violinist... 🤣
GG ... Now you're the violin queen 😂💪🎻
I will start next month with violin 😁🎻
@@AlisaF Well, I wish you good luck with your journey to music and be very careful and passionate with your instrument❤️❤️❤️😘
@@kaliannaxagorari2347 Thank you, I will be careful and I wish you good luck too!! ❤️❤️❤️🎻😘
@@AlisaF Oh and don't forget... Practise EVERY SINGLE DAY like ling ling
💕🎻♥️♥️
Lol. Her now hold at first cracked me up 😂 im a violinist
Never Too Old for Dolls lol “im a violinist”
Band kids: Plays Forte at Piano
Orchestra Kids: Can't hear themselves because of the band kids
YO- that was us this morning 😂
The teacher has to keep sending kids to close the band door bc it kept opening and we couldn’t hear ourselves
he's so eager and it's cute
At the first scene where he was playing I thought he was playing with her until she showed her instrument and realized he was just acting to play 😂😂😂
her facial expressions while playing the violin is actually amazing 😂
This is my boyfriend and I on our free time HAHAHAH he plays the basoon, piano and guitar . I play violin, and a bit of piano. We are always trading and failing miserably
This was so funny. Really nice to see you two, with your obvious comfort and skill in your own instruments try the other's instrument.
"Go tell aunt Rhody" is one of the first pieces a violinist learn. It's in Suzuki method.
I never heard of it and I played for 6 years 😂
Chlb015 you 100% didn’t to Suzuki then because it in book one and everyone learns it.
@@bellaelles8658 nah my teacher didnt use those books
Oh I was soooo excited for this video!!!! 😂😂 I feel like starting flute, depending on whether or not you can make a sound, is harder than starting violin. But I think learning violin is a bit harder than flute once you know flute basics lol
awww this is so sweet you to are adorable p.s. great job, i play both of those instruments (not very well lol) but ya'll did amazing for literally the first time playing those instruments👏
Her boyfriend was like gimme flute! Lol. When she held the violin with her chin, I actually didn't freak out until he did. Lol. 😆😂
Loved the video!!! I've never played the flute before, but as I violinist I'd say they're both difficult in different ways.
SO FRICKING CUTE !!!!! AAAAAH SENDING YOU ALL THE SHIPS
Loved the video, very funny and interesting to watch! Happy 4th of July!!☕️
😂😂 every musicians worst nightmare when hold the instrument wrong 8:54 think scared drop it. Haha looks just hard as a cello
