Tread lightly into this comment section, for there are many high schoolers who can't get over the fact that the professional musicians in this video aren't using the same technique taught by their drumline instructor.
The comments critiquing the snare players technique pain me, a lot of them don’t understand that orchestral drumming is waaay different from highschool drumming, or that these people have been mastering their craft for years and know what they’re doing.
i’m sure that the percussionists of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra have waited their entire careers of probably 15-20+ years of training and perfecting their craft and sound to hear this life changing comment about their technique. Thanks, Daulton!
Amazing! You know I hate about a lot of people? They always think percussion is easy, but the way they visualize makes it seem easy. They think it’s only hitting and smashing thinks together. Non-percussionists should should see what they are missing out on
I knowwwww. Hard to believe that such poor technique is present in a major orchestra like that. He's the one with that job and not me so I gotta respect that but it just looks and sounds so tense to me.
@@matthewpaluch777 The best model of cannon that you can get is the Vic Firth Heavy Hitter Civil War Model, but it weighs like 3.2 tons, so you're going to have to get some of your buddies to help you getting it onstage. However, if you're too broke to afford a cannon or too weak to carry it in (shame on you), you could use a wooden beater or a hard felt beater on a bass drum. Doesn't have the same effect though.
Heads up: 1. Orchestral technique and marching technique are stark opposites. 2. Tension is not always bad. The snare drum was doing upstrokes to get a staccato sound out of the drum. 3. Orchestra rolls are about getting a sustained sound. This is often done by keeping your hands and fingers still and using your arms to manipulate the bounce.
1 time I had to be the percussionist and after the concert, all my friends were like did you actually play anything and I was like are you serious? cuz like I was the only percussionist and so I had to play cowbell, symbols, snare, Tamborine, the big kong and other stuff and now I know that there is way more job being a percussionist than being a simple trumpet tube or so on XD
Before Band: Me: "Ew! Percussion? Woodwinds sound way more fun!" A Month After Band Starts: Me: "Okay, I like being a percussionist. Not worrying about when to breathe, not having to put your instrument together. This is amazing!"

Detroit Symphony.
The only orchestra with real gunshot sounds
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAA
bruhhh
LMFAO
LOL
ROFL
You forgot the part where they wait
What's a percussionist's favourite piece? Tacet.
Joshua Connor seems about right
Joshua Connor I like how they get paid for that
0:56
Now kids, this rituals is known as the tuning of the triangle.
There is a spot to hit the triangle for the best sound
The percussionist is probably locating that.
Yes. Reverse the gap. Hold it high.
What is it about orchestra snare drummers and having the playing technique of C-3PO
Harrison Garvey OLD gay
Harrison Garvey OLD lol
Haha
Yeah, all that elbow/arm movement looks so odd as opposed to wrist
Half of their minds are stuck counting rests, so when they play, they're still counting rests with their body.
0:26 The wallet trick. Never fails
I use my phone lol
Federico González Carrasco I dont play drums but what does the wallet trick do?
Dampens the overtones of your drumhead so it sounds tighter and not like Lars Ulrich
Federico González Carrasco i
I use like a small book or something
I love the cymbal player tapping it like "ah yes my cymbals need tuning"
simphonic cymbals have a different weight. the lightest one needs to stay on the right, so he was looking for the lightest one
Yeah that was an idiot im on camera move
@@randyduncan4004 read the reply

Great video! Percussion is one of my favorite sections of the orchestra!
barongondremarck mine too
I mean, there are only 4 sections in an orchestra, so...
1812. brings back lots of memories.
0:56, good news team, the triangle AND the cymbals work
No-one:

Duuuudde the snare player is soooo tence

Ben Brown seems as if he is trying to play so perfect and proper that he tenses.
you have clearly never studied precution, dick. dude, why are you here if you dont know how to play the fucking snare drum.
wow. its not like i said that or anything. *dick
Adrenaline migraine Wow. People cant make observations. Weird.
A fantastic glimpse! Thanks!
Love the snare at 1:20, "If these flams are dirty I'll get fired". So nervous
0:56 when you can't remember if you tuned your cymbals
gotta tune those
I love percussion instruments!
Dat bass drum tho ;)
This inspires me as a percussionist.Btw is Josh playing with Detroit or another orchestra now?
wowokwow I just won a principal position with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra
Joshua Jones that’s amazing! I just saw your video, it was really inspirational to see how much work you put into being a percussionist. Nice job.
Congrats from your neighbor in Edmonton :)
"A day in the life" 3 minute long video.
Quite a short day.
Didn't anyone tell you, Detroit is the city of 3 minute days

So it's just like school percussion

.. cymbals are the hardest to move.. they're the heaviest : )
Uhhh timpani
anyone else hear explosions
1812すこ
2:14 the overspeeding timpanist
they should wear earprotection
AVE drums always, earasers
nah dont worry. They are from Detroit so they are used to that kind of sounds
ahh yes, the ak-47 sounds nice, right honey?
1812 overture, not a bad choice.
0:28 song?
its an excerpt from Thcaikovskys 1812 Overture
the rest of the video is as well
SSS omg thank you sooooooo much
I thought the American style of timpani was to have the lowest on the left. Why does the timpanist here have it on the right?
Just because it's in America doesn't mean it's American Technique. It's just German Technique that an American orchestra is happening to use.
The timpanist (Jeremy Epp) studied in Cleveland, where the tradition his to play timpani in German setup.
What the fuck is the snare drummer even doing there?😂
1812 год 0:57

Lol, he sounds perfectly fine.
