OOOH I live for this! Euphonium is given little to no credit. There are countless times when I've been asked what I play because my mouthpiece is on the table and they either guess Trumpet or Tuba and I have to control myself to not choke them. Let's go Euphoniums (or baritones stfu).
oh god. its been 10 years since ive heard the sound of a Euphonium and i never realized how much ive missed playing until now. Sir your performance brought me to tears.

Anyone who gave this a "thumbs down" must be some kind of anti-euphonium zealot...let me guess...trumpet players? Flute players? Timpanists? Kazoo aficionados? You guys always *were* jealous of the single BEST instrument in the band! ;-)
This guy is an insane player. Im decent at euphonium and have been playing for about 5 schools years now but im not even close to this guy's incredible skill!
Was just showing my coworker this as an illustration on how the Euphonium is played, as I played it in High School years ago. Mr Childs is insane! A delight to hear him play!
I have been playing the euphonium for about 2 years and my teacher always says when I struggle to play a piece that even David Childs was at the level I am at now at some point and I find that hard to believe.😃
+Aimee Guest It's true! I've been playing euphonium for 20 years, and trumpet for 10 years before that. And while I'll probably never be at the level David Childs is at, I'm still a pretty good player. But when I started out, I didn't sound nearly as good and struggled at times. All it takes is practice.
euphgeek any tips to improve performance? I am a freshman in high school and have been playing since fourth grade, but I hope to greatly improve in coming years? Any general tips or tricks to improve things like range or endurance?
Wooo! Euphonium for the win! I myself am in my third year of playing Euphonium, And I find it extremely enjoyable. I just hate how most people think all instruments are so simple- Like, they think Percussion is just hitting things, and the rest of the instruments are simply blowing into a hole.. They couldn't be more wrong.
BLACKIE16491 The euphonium is the most beautiful voiced of ALL brass instruments. Soft and mellow when needed and strong and authoritative when needed. No other brass instrument is so versatile !
Well I agree to you esteratelescu that singing this would be very difficulta and I even think that it would be impossible to do it :D, but playing this is also very difficult :D:D P.S Got it? :D
Abel Aguilar Its kinda funny. We try so hard in school for band and arguably more time and effort than in individual subjects in school yet dont pursue careers in music. This for majority of school students not everyone.
That's awesome I'm going to play this for my band director or with him!! I'm a freshman in high school! But I am very proud of you for stepping up and playing something advanced, even though I don't know you. I know you will do great!!! Good luck!! :)
I saw a couple awesome college students (I'm sure at least one of them was in college) perform the Carnival of Venice on euphonium and it was so awesome I had to listen to it again.
@@jennatulls9225 Another thing is that since the air goes through more tubing than say, a trombone, there's a lot more resistance when trying to play loud.

I play Euphonium and played a simplified version of this song for judges when I was just barely 12 years old. I'm 13 now and playing College level pieces and this still blows my mind!
first of all david childs is my hero......he is the main person that has inspired me to continue playing the euphonium........secondly i definitely don't appreciate the rude comments about the euphonium....its a wonderful yet uncommon instrument because people don't have the balls to play it....i'm the only euph player in the wind symphony at my high school because all the others that played quit because they didnt have what it takes to play the euph
*Dies in awe* I am currently trying to play and or accomplish playing this piece. Right now with lack of experience I may not be able to play it perfectly as he clearly did, but at least when I can play it the way I want to, I can say I did it and I did it well. Like I say my lack of experience because I am only a 15 year old. I will play this piece, whether I like it or not. It will get done!!! You did oh so amazing at that piece!!!! I shall study your techniques and try simular!! Thankyou!!!#
Growing up I learned Bb Trumpet. It wasn't until much later did I learn about the baritone/euphonium horn. I love the warm sound they produce, and I decided to try one out. The transition was not too hard and I had a great time playing it in a small band. What a great instrument.
OMG I was there.. It was fantastic, brilliant and very cold when the sun went down.. but what a fabulous evening... Fan-taz-ma-gor-ical... *grinning like a Cheshire cat now * I evfen heard myself whopoin' at the end.. Tee hee ...:0)x
I have had the pleasure of meeting Bowman. David and Brian are right up there with each other now. Being that David is young....I can't imagine him any better than he is now. He still many decades of his career left. David will probably end up being the best EVER.
I am a Bone main but I have recently got my own John Packer Sterling silver 274 and I love playing it in my community concert band SACWE! Playing Molly on the shore and Auguries of innocence this block! :)
Like if this is what you get all the time from being a euphonium player:
"What instrument is that?"
"A euphonium"
"Whats that?'
"It's like a small tuba.."
baby tuba
Every time.
Legit put this on my letterman
Or a bigger version of the Neo tenor horn.
It’s not recognized enough. Should be more mentioned than most other solo instruments
Story of my life!
"You're in band? What do you play?"
-"Euphonium"
"What is that?"
-"Looks like a tiny tuba"
"....Still don't know what you're taking about."
T_T
so true
nobody knows about it but they should. best low brass instrument
lemme correct myself. best instrument in general
Hahaha this is so true
I don't understand why it is so underrated.
Where are my fellow euphonium players??
Jake Strauss waddup big boi
Right here
Sup dudes
Here!
👋
Where's my baritone/euphonium squad at!?!
Euphoniums should get more recognition.. the instrument is the best of the lowbrass
Hyper Star, Trombones are the best.
Yeah I agree. I like it better than the tuba
Agree
Agree
Agreed
I play euphonium and I absolutely love my instrument. David Childs is the best euphonium player I have every seen. David you are an inspiration.
Steven Mead is a god at it too, look him up :)
Listen to piazolla and listen to brian bowman
As good as he is, I reckon his dad was even better
I dream to have half the playing skill as him😍
Honestly 😂
Did you get better
I speak for all euph players when I say DAMN Boiiiiiiiiii
I gained MAD respect at 4:10 when he started doing the small trills sounds AND the bass bumps. Non-brass kids will never understamd the difficulty
It’s called playing the music as written
@@libertariancapitalistyou clearly haven't held a baritone before
@@iwastherobloxianminecrafter Wrong.

Listen to his Dad Bob play the same piece, was even better in my humble opinion!!
Go euphonium
it is the best brass instrument ever
it , baritone, and tube (all the same thing anyway)
Zaster I'm sorry, did you just say that the euphonium, baritone, and tuba are all the same instruments?
ManEating Gnomes no, I meant that if you can play one, it's easier to get the hang of another
Wrong horn is the best

Scott Newbury probably trombones. They aren't cool like us.
Vladimir Valentine yeah safe the trombones are always jealous
Vladimir Valentine true
Definitely the trombonists: the trumpets are too egotistical
ShiftGuazz that's exactly what I think
I play marching baritone and euphonium and those are amazing instruments. He is amazing at what he does and that's for sure.
Triple touging and multiphonics, at the same time, this guy is an euphonium god.
It starts at 1:08
Hood Pastrami Thank you, mate!
its always so hard to explain the Euphonium when you don' have it on you
I am overwhelmed! THAT was a great Job.
Probably the best Euphonium solo Play I ever had the honor to hear.
Honestly, never gets old. I miss playing. 😢
This is why Euphonium players are the best brass instrument...best instrument in general!
Get out the way trumpet and sax, Euphonium is best.
sax wasn't even in this lol. I'm trumpet player and I can say baritone is a pretty lit instrument. I don't know abut the best though ;)
trumpets always have a ego and btw im play both...
Right now iIm learning Euphonium in 6th grade and its beast.
Kenneth Nguyen I prefer bassoon or tuba
too bad their under-rated ;c
Phenomenal...omg so good. And makes it look easy.
He truly is a master musician and made that look effortless. I'm good, he's great. Wonderful solo piece!
David Childs ummmm my source of inspiration. I enjoy the way you play the euphonium. The best
This guy is an insane player. Im decent at euphonium and have been playing for about 5 schools years now but im not even close to this guy's incredible skill!
4:15
"Wait, is he... Oh man, he's playing two parts at once. What the hell, man."
Awesome indeed!! I love it! God's gift, infinite practice, and there it is...

Euphoniums,so over rated...said no living person ever. . .
I myself as a trumpet can say that the trumpets are a little overrated and should be given credit to baritones. because baritone is lit.
Here here! I myself am a Baritone player and feel we deserve a little more credit as we get very much over looked
yes

David plays with such class and style and has a great stage presence. He makes the euphonium sing!
Beautiful!
The euphonium sound is so rich and pure!
Very dark and rounded! :))
I PLAY EUPHONIUM! IM ONLY 13! HAIL TO EUPHONIUMS
Dude are you 20 now?? Did you keep it up?
@@samrs2010 I sure did! I am 20, and am a junior euphonium performance major in college :)
i love how they always told us NOT to puff our cheeks when we were learning, but there goes a profesional euphonium player puffing his cheeks..
This is such a fun song to play, and I always love hearing a good euphonium solo. Boy do I miss playing mine.
What an brilliant rendition, this man is very special.
Those jumps at 4:18 tho
that is some extreme triple tounging
The Rainbow Cat that's not triple tonguing. It's all slurred except for the accented notes
He's referring to the jumps in pitch though, which was INSANE coupled with the speed!
Well I agree to you esteratelescu that singing this would be very difficulta and I even think that it would be impossible to do it :D, but playing this is also very difficult :D:D P.S Got it? :D
I love this song. He is the best person that i've heard play this song. I want to play like him some day.
omg i still love this video even tho ive seen it about a hundred times x.x
THIS SHIT IS DOPE AS FUCK!
Your comments are crude and unasked for. I bet you Mom is real proud of you
damn.. left me speechless. I've been playing the baritone since sixth grade. I'm 21 and haven't played since 12th grade. I miss playing :(
Abel Aguilar Its kinda funny. We try so hard in school for band and arguably more time and effort than in individual subjects in school yet dont pursue careers in music. This for majority of school students not everyone.
so true
I am delighted-a bravura performance!
Wow! Virtuosic. Fantastic!.
all i think when I hear this is Fred Dibnah
Then they would ask:
"What's a baritone?"
yeah so true
such a great tone:) never heard it better!!!
Great job! Thanks for posting.
I am playing ephonium
I'm playing this solo for solo and ensemble and I'm going to state after getting a one by memory and I'm a sophomore in highschool xD
Wow! In what state?
That's awesome I'm going to play this for my band director or with him!! I'm a freshman in high school! But I am very proud of you for stepping up and playing something advanced, even though I don't know you. I know you will do great!!! Good luck!! :)
+TheHalodude1232 i think i know who u r
wait nvm
TheHalodude1232 if just seems as though it'd get tiring on the fingers
He's a musical genius. This is fantastic.
I saw a couple awesome college students (I'm sure at least one of them was in college) perform the Carnival of Venice on euphonium and it was so awesome I had to listen to it again.
either that Euphonium doesn't project for shit or he's playing hilariously quiet for a solo performance
Idk how trombones project, seriously it is insanely difficult to get my euphonium to sound remotely as loud as the trumpets or trombones
@Nestor Pelayo I wasn't quite sure, Thanks for clearing that up
@@jennatulls9225 Another thing is that since the air goes through more tubing than say, a trombone, there's a lot more resistance when trying to play loud.
Can't get enough of this.
Had only heard this on the trumpet. Splendid.

I play euphonium, and whenever I don't feel like practicing, all I have to do is listen to David Childs play. I wish I could play like that!
I love that he doesn't just play, he performs.
ahhhh wow I love the rips at the end of his variations :)
Euphonium for life.
