#16 is not a glockenspiel, it’s a marimba! A glockenspiel, also known as bells, is distinctive for its high pitched sounds, and its keys are made of metal. The marimba has a larger range, going well into the bass clef, and it has a more mellow sound due to its being made of wood.
the instrument on the left is a vibraphone, and the one on the right is probably a xylophone. glockenspiels are far smaller than vibraphones, and marimbas have a softer tone than xylophones.
@@RtsShrtFrRtthw youre right about the vibes but that is 100% a marimba. xylophones typically have less range than vibes (the marimba in the video appears to be larger than the vibes) and you absolutely do not (or rarely ever) use 4 yarn mallets on a xylo because xylos don't play chords, and they're not made for soft mallets like that (and will hardly produce sound because of the shorter resonators), while marimbas are. also just in general most mallet percussion duets are written for a vibraphone and a marimba.
@@RtsShrtFrRtthw it is vibraphone, xylophone not glockenspiels and marimba glockenspiels is metal and it is smaller and the keys are slim i did mallet percussion for 5 years since 3rd grade i a played all of the mallet types well most
I was looking everywhere for this comment. I knew it was a piccolo something, but the fact that they just put trumpet is like labeling a clarinet as a bass clarinet.
As someone who plays the Euphonium, and is in a brass band, that is not a Euphonium, that is a Tuba. It is simply playing higher in it's register than you might be used to hearing. Additionally, tuba's can have the extra valve that @phineas1117 is talking about and come in several different shapes/keys. The way to tell if it's a Euphonium is by the size (usually don't have to stretch to reach around it, and the bell will be at head height when resting on your lap (not the chair). It is also higher in pitch than other tubas (yes I said other, since the Euphonium is technically in the tuba family), but the tone will be slightly different in the overlapping registers (it will sound thinner on tuba than euphonium in the tuba's upper register)
For me, there are only some slight nuances within specific ranges of instruments that make some instruments of differing families sound similar (sax/oboe for example)... but for the most part, I hear instruments sounds pretty much distinct to a specific family, so it really didn't matter they were grouped by family. I find it harder to recognize same family instruments, unless their top or bottom extremes are played.
I love the way you really go through all of the notes so that if you are a bit stuck it helps you out example: viola and violin. I would have had no idea if you didn’t play the highest notes of them both. Thank you!

Clarinet and Bassoon Clef are good examples and Diana Daniels is the instrument character for all of the percussion instruments in the orchestra, so that’s the reason you see Diana’s name more than once.

Hi. Amazing video. My wife, Lidia C.P. is a music teacher. Can she use this as didactic material in one of her power point presentations wich will take place in may 2023 while she is tested for obtaining the 1st Degree qualification? You will be fully credited of course. Thank you for your time :)
hey, I see Christian Jones, Michael Fuller, Andrew Cresci, Amy Harman, Mark van de Wiel, Andrew Smith, and Timothy Rundle from the Philharmonia Orchestra!
my answers: 1- oboe 2- French horn 3- I forgot trumpet and trombone are two different things, I said flute ;-; 4- oboe- I thought tube was the same as double bass 5- oboe the popular man HOW IS THAT A STRING- 6- i give up
I know this is out there, but does anyone know the name of the piece played on bass? It seemed like a cool piece and I’m looking for one for my orchestra audition next year
For future reference, glocks have a very metallic, bright sustained sound and xylophones have a very distinct sharp, wooden short sound whereas vibraphone and marimba are softer, warmer sounds. Vibraphone also has a sustain pedal like a piano.
I got 14 out of 20 Ones I got wrong were: Viola (didn’t know what it was because I’m not familiar with strings yet) Cello (thought it was double bass Xylophone and Glockenspiel (thought it was either marimba or vibraphone) Flute (thought it was clarinet) Bassoon (thought it was clarinet) Oboe (thought it was alto saxophone) Everything else thought I got right
It was marimba and vibe duet - the creator got it wrong 😂 I'm a percussionist so it drove me nuts, and the comments are all talking about that one being wrong
Has a bassoonist, I can't Believing that they confuse the sound of the bassoon with the sound of some other woodwind instrument😭 It doesn't make sense to me
As an orchestral composer, I got them all but fifteen and sixteen, which were playing with soft mallets, which is not really representative of their sound. As an orchestral percussionist myself, I think it's a horrible example. Both are generally played by plastic or hard rubber mallets. Glocks use metal mallets a lot. They sound almost like marimba and vibraphone. Number one was also a piccolo trumpet, or a pocket trumpet.
What about the group of stringed instruments for children to recognize? Can you group them by instrument families? - stringed - woodwind - Brass - Percussion Thank you!
First one was actually a cornet which is very similar to a trumpet but different. I have played both Edit: 2 years later I now know that it is in fact the trumpet I dream the most of having.... my beloved piccolo trumpet how I wish to buy you
The answers for 15 and 16 don't seem right to me. I see and hear a vibraphone and a marimba. Xylophones are made of wood so if anything the one on the right of the screen would be a better contender. People often say 'xylophone' when they mean glockenspiel but in this case the image was another metallophone, namely a vibraphone. Glockenspiels are smaller and more high pitched.

#16 was a vibraphone not a glockenspiel
the glockenspiel was a marimba, and the xylophone was a vibraphone. just learned it a few minutes ago….
also wednesday is playing the cello right?
The first instrument is a cornet, not a trumpet. The cornet is smaller and that range is way too high for a trumpet!

Percussionist here: #15-16 This is not a xylophone and Glockenspiel. That is a Vibraphone (left) and marimba (right).
I was going say that it was vibes and marimba
Fr that makes me so annoyed 😭
Thank you for letting me know I wasn’t the only one
i was going to say that lol
same here
i hate to study for music listening exam
gl
yes
this is just a fun game
Same I’ve got one today
I got one tmr
The first one is actually a piccolo trumpet
Would’ve been good to know
That’s why I had a hard time identifying it
and a tiny one at that, looks like it could be a C piccolo, but interestingly doesn't have a 4th valve.
I was looking everywhere for this comment. I knew it was a piccolo something, but the fact that they just put trumpet is like labeling a clarinet as a bass clarinet.
no wonder, I was wonder why it was so high but so obviously not the piccolo bahaha
Just got a cochlear implant and I’m learning to hear again. This video is great for recognizing instruments ❤
That tuba was not only playing out of the range of a tuba, but he was puffing so much
I’m pretty sure it was a euphonium
When your "tuba" is actually a euphonium
I thought it was to high for tuba!
It’s a tuba, euphoniums have an extra key for the hand you’re hugging it
As someone who plays the Euphonium, and is in a brass band, that is not a Euphonium, that is a Tuba. It is simply playing higher in it's register than you might be used to hearing. Additionally, tuba's can have the extra valve that @phineas1117 is talking about and come in several different shapes/keys.

The best instrument sounds quiz so far on the internet. Exactly what I've searched for. Hats off, sir.
Many thanks. I'm glad you like it. 👍
I pretty sure the first instrument was a piccolo trumpet or could be played by a C trumpet. Just want your listeners to know.
I knew it didn’t sound like a typical trumpet
The very first one was not a normal trumpet but a piccolo trumpet.
This is quite good. It is a shame you grouped all the instruments by type. Makes it much easier to guess.
For me, there are only some slight nuances within specific ranges of instruments that make some instruments of differing families sound similar (sax/oboe for example)... but for the most part, I hear instruments sounds pretty much distinct to a specific family, so it really didn't matter they were grouped by family. I find it harder to recognize same family instruments, unless their top or bottom extremes are played.
