Bridle Path and Kulp Elementary Schools Advanced and Beginner Band plays Jingle Bells December 16, 2009.
No teacher was fired in the making of this concert!
All elementary school band concerts sound this way at some point.
This is the ORIGINAL video Jingle Bells, which has been reposted many times on UA-cam, Reddit, Tiktok etc. under titles such as "when you're the only person in band that practices," "we can tell who's been practicing," etc.
Shown on the Late Late Show with James Corden on January 23, 2023 (Without Credit, how kind)
"How many times have you practiced this piece?"
"No."
BAHHAHAHA
SUIDHDDHEYEW
LOL
everyone in this thread died of a stroke
XHAMROFHJTHOAGHAGH
Maybe if we play louder, we'll sound good
*C O R R E C T!*
Okay, new theory. Maybe we should play sooo quietly, no one can hear it.
Thinking vs reality:
@@VermilionProductions That’s probably a better option
@@VermilionProductions maybe we wouldn't sound so bad if some people didn't try to play with BIG MEATY CLAWS
Dashing through the snow~
On a pair of broken skis~
Crashing through the trees~
Screaming all the way “Ow ow ow”
The snow is turning red~
I think I might be dead~
I wake up in the hospital with stitches on my head!
Oh, hospital, hospital, snow is turning- ok ima stop now
This is amazing 😂😂
That was fire
Why do I feel like I’ve seen this somewhere before?
I'd pay money to watch a concert like this, once in a lifetime type of event.
Look for 'really terrible orchestra' it's like this but for grown-ups
@@NyanyiC that is a great keyword
just got to your local middle school’s performance
Jokes aside, the soloist wasn't all that bad
The soloist was the best part of the performance.
@@serenfan4565 the soloist was the only part of the performance that was somewhat decent, I bet the director Just chose the best player and said “you’re our final hope”
his tone wasnt bad he just struggled w his range
Yeah
He's got a good tone! Future college trumpeter!
Parents really will clap for anything
Well yes they love there children you'll know when your older
I mean, they are just trying to support their children. Everybody knows it sucked and they were trying not to laugh, but hey, kid is trying a new skill and they gotta start somewhere.
They’re clapping because it’s over.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
U gotta encourage your kids
4:03 You can see the little girl covering her ears LOL
The standing ovation at the end with the kids fist-bumping like they just killed it had me DEAD
They did kill it. It is buried at several different places now.
They did. They *murdered* it!
I want them to play at my wedding
Same
Your like counter is at 420 so I don't wanna ruin it lol
Edit: mkay nvm it's at 480 now
Edit: Holy shit nvm its 11k
After 11 years, maybe they're getting better.
Or not.
Now presenting our band, the discordance, as they will play the piece “Symphony of the Squeaks” performed in A-Minor.
Divorce.
I actually feel bad for the kid playing the solo. you can tell he actually knows what he's doing. that bit in the beginning when he's playing im like ah this isn't that bad and then when everyone started I just started bawling laughing
@@parkerbfsmash8041 there’s no way you sound like this on a week of any instrument
@@parkerbfsmash8041 I do, and I can tell you it took me like 3 months before I even learned how to play HALF a Bb scale
@@parkerbfsmash8041 are you a prodigy or some shit bc i remember only being able to play at most the first two notes after one week
@@parkerbfsmash8041 and then I struggled with the third note for the next month or so :/
@@parkerbfsmash8041 not correct, I have been playing the trumpet the same instrument the soloist is playing for 4 years and this is still a little tricky but manageable for me
Anytime my band class sounds bad my band teacher pulls this up and yells "DO YOU WANT TO SOUND LIKE THIS?!?!?!"
We've been shown this video like 5 times but istg it sounds worse every single time
the more you know, the worse it sounds 💀
3:40 the soloist did so good to be fair! I can’t imagine how nerve wracking it must be
Yea they need to take him out of that band and put him in an better one he is around 6x better then everyone else
the last part of his solo always gets me 😂
Ima need the spotify version
Or you can download this
Tell me once you find it
🤣🤣🤣
So you'll pay for this? RESPECT 🙏

being a parent is the ultimate try not to laugh challenge
Dude your comment is genius!!!
i honestly think terrible performances are more entertaining than normal ones
I’m laughing so hard at this video omgggdgehsbsbsbxbjja
@@The_Runaway_wolf you failed
for me it would be a try not to leave challenge
The parents were actually applauding eachother for holding their laugh the whole performance
I am actually pretty impressed how that extra note after 03:07 didn´t throw the soloist off. I see some talent for playing passing notes here.
This performance was a masterpiece. The use of the solo introduces the simple melody, and it is played beautifully, purposefully using "wrong" notes to bring tension, and unique rhythms to keep us on our feet. As a listener we expect that tension to eventually resolve and be relieved, but no, the full band comes in and subverts expectations by bringing in complex harmonies, fully using dissonance and highly advanced microtonal technique to contrast the simple and overheard "jingle bells" typically played.
This comment is gold
Ah yes, this is the greatest performance of the century.
“Purposefully using wrong notes” that’s what we call jazz /s
Found the English teacher
Couldn’t have said it better myself
Imagine being a parent at this concert. I would have to leave the room to laugh in solitude.
😂
I wouldn’t leave. Just laugh. Loudly.
Laugh in Solitude is playing at the Mercury Lounge.
Id get kicked out for laughing so hard, parent or not 😂
In E minor?
The man who conducted this band just passed yesterday. John Josten Jr. was his name. I was at this performance and knew the man somewhat well. Hoping this video continues on in his honor
"If everything goes well, at least we won't have a heart attack" at least he's well aware they're pretty bad. I like how they do victory poses after creating the worst sound known to man. Respect to the band director for keeping his cool with these kids and pulling through. Being an elementary school band director is not easy and takes a lot of patience. This is a starting point, and kids will grow their music skills when led the right way and potentially move on to a top university band. Kudos to Josh the soloist for carrying the rest of them, he's an example of what happens when you take music seriously. Appreciate and respect the instrument you're playing, and it will appreciate and respect you.
Why are you everywhere
The more you listen to it, it somehow gets better
For me, it gets worse and funnier
Have you considered becoming an elementary music teacher? Because that reaction is the primary qualification required.
@@phantasos12 really? I might have a chance at teaching music then.
aggree.
You mean worse 🤣
That one trumpet playing alone is actually amazing
yeah in all seriousness the soloist was pretty good
It's easier to play alone when nobody else was tuned
ehhh I mean I think they messed up in a few areas, but those notes were very clean! I applaud them.
Its very good for an elementry school kid
Very great trumpet player, especially for their age
clarinets hitting all those high notes ❤️❤️🥰🥰

@@slurp7574 yeah but I’m just guessing it’s a sax. But there were for sure a couple clarinet squeaks.

This teacher definitely cried in his car after and then gave the kids a “never in my 39 years of teaching…” talk the next day
You could tell that he was trying to stall with all the talking.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nah he killed himself in his car after that
I will be damned if I do this job for 39 years 😂
I'm sure he was thinking as he cried in his car " i just wanted a career in music..."
4:00 The little girl covered her ears she couldn't even take it 😂😂
Lmao

Right! 😂
It was that bad, she had to
she couldn't take in the beautiful art

💀💀💀💀
I’m the trumpet player it true I didn’t even care at that point
I’ve been having a hard time with anxiety and depression recently but this video has really helped get me out of some dark moments
For an elementary school trumpet player the soloist was awesome, very good. Honestly the band sounded not bad especially at 3:19 they played pretty well
Yes, that particular note was memorable.
This was college level…
Joking obviously but that would be hilarious
At minute 3:19 is playing the CD music. As you can see the kids aren't playing any instruments
Nah..... Stop with anything aside from the soloist 😂
Its says in the description that this was the advanced and beginner band so I'm guessing that section was just the advanced kids lol.
As a former elementary school teacher, I feel for everyone here, especially the teacher. I recall trying to organize musical events for assemblies, and the anxiety that always accompanied that.. Luckily, most parents love their kids no matter how bad they sound, and when the inevitable youngster freezes as soon as he/she sees the audience, wanders away and starts waving to his or her parents, or thinks that sticking their bum out and making faces is hilarious, most parents are pretty good-natured about it.
And then when it's over and you can go home, you can sit on the couch alone in the dark with a large glass of scotch and contemplate your life.
💯
Sheeeeeeeeeeesh
such deep words
Brilliant
Omg my life was a lie
this is absolutely the best thing on the internet today! Elementary band teachers should all get a free pass into heaven.
The trumpet solo was not even that bad for what i assume a middle school-elementary school band
I'd argue it's good for a middle schooler. Range isn't fully there but the tone is very solid
@@noname8354 yes yes i agree
The surprising aspect is these are elementary school kids based on the description, and one of the bands present were considered advanced, don’t know which one the trumpet belonged to however, but I hedged it may be on the advanced part of the band.
if not, then they are only person in the beginner band that can single-handedly make something not hilariously bad, and make a contrast that just makes this whole video even funnier.
I love how the kids do victory poses with their instruments over their head. What is even funnier is these guys get a standing applause, yet there's no standing applause at my high school concerts
A bunch of Champs, I'd let them play in my palace
dude they're little kids they need the positive support in order to be healthy children
@@hidinginyourcloset I'm saying it's ironic how they get a standing ovation, and a group of teens of have been playing for 5 years now don't. They deserve it, but so do us more experienced players
@@hedgehogcoasters7239
Yeah, honestly I feel you there though. Been in chorus for about 6 years now and our crowds still don't like to give standing ovations.
We're actually encouraged by our director to stand up ourselves and clap (if we're in the seats at that time).
I guess it's cause they think we're older now so we don't exactly need the encouragement.
I think all performances deserve support, there’s always at least a little bit of a time commitment to the actual piece, and if there isn’t it’s because they have a much greater time investment into what they do or they are young and will probably need the support
I'm giving the parents a round of applause too for an extreme-level of unconditional support
I agree. From the time my oldest started in 3rd grade band until my youngest moved into the high school concert band, I attended at least 18 concerts involving the beginner band. They all sounded pretty much like this one. The students were very proud of themselves, and the parents ALWAYS enthusiastically cheered them on. The kids WILL improve, but they have to start somewhere. The soloist obviously was NOT a beginner, and as I recall, that was mentioned in the video. Bravo to the directors who teach beginners - for their patience; to the students for their effort, and to the parents for their excitement and unconditional support.
Same here they did will.
I think they did kinda as a joke (the standing ovation)
I agree they did a good job
I love the clever use of the sound of a train horn to let the soloist know it's his part again, 11/10
I played the clarinet in high-school bands for 10 years, and I miss it so much. Experiences like this honestly mean the world to some children. I hope the conductor is doing well.
Dang you were in high school for 10 years!? Heck yeah.

2:55 You can't recover from that, but the soloist tried his best 🤣
BRO THEY JUST LIKE STOPPED TRYING LMFAO IT SOUNDS LIKE A TRAIN HORN
the best part of playing with this band is , if you haven't practiced no one will know.
When these children were born, they slapped the doctor for not crying. And when they stay at hotels, the hotel pays them for staying. This is so blursed. Just think. They are all adults now and can do and listen to this masterpiece whenever they’d like. 😂They’re kids, their job is mainly to enjoy music and making it, not to be perfect! They’re doing an amazing thing there. If we wouldn’t have little performances like this, we’d have music as a career or just as an ability perceived as an even more elite thing, which is certainly shouldn’t be. Massive well done and huge respect to the conductor.
3:19 is the only part that even has a hint of good
when it's so bad it actually gets somewhat good
it sounds like an actual middle school band
@@CringePoop concert band
@@grilledcheese6781 elementary school concert band made up of students who were born with their hands reversed
Nah bro you must be drinking, this is the music of the century!
I'll admit, the second time the whole band did the Jingle Bells part was actually kinda good
The first part was terrible
@@LT_Productions1 third part was the worst
@@MattSayYay nah first was first but that might’ve just been because there were more woodwind squeaks
They were so close and then the third time happened...props for them trying though
i think it’s because the beginning band played the chorus first and then the advanced played the second time (as said in the intro)
"if you make a mistake, keep playing because nobody will notice" - every parent
This just makes me think, I started band in 5th grade and I wonder how we actually sounded because I remember us sounding AMAZING
Everyone is laughing at these guys but honestly good on them for going through an entire song in public with that skill level
Edit: To the people saying they are only there for a grade, I’m comfortable saying that 90% of people I know would just take a 0 instead of actually coming and playing in public. Also to the ones saying the teacher failed them, the same thing applies, sure they could have done a better job, but it takes courage to own up to one’s failure like this teacher did. The entire band and teacher is really respectable
Also to the person who said I hadn’t been in school for a while, I was 16 at the time of writing this
It's not really much of an achievement since this is probably a performance that they are required to go to for a grade.
Shame on the teacher for failing his students like that. These kids deserve to learn better than this.
No. Not good on them. Expect more of kids. Unless this was literally the first day they ever picked up their instruments, they were less prepared than they should have been. I'm saying that as someone who teaches guitar lessons and has three kids who are all starting musical instruments.
They were literally required to do this lol. I'm pretty sure it's been a long time since you've been in school because you made this comment. Honestly it's been awhile for me to at this point. But I remember having to participate in stuff like this every year because Music was required.
One guy I know that loves music and teaches kids told me that the beauty of teaching kids to play in orchestra is that you'll hear them get better bit by bit. It will go from sounding like this video to something better and better each time.
I want them to play at my funeral if they don’t I’m not dying
I guess we found the answer to immortality. Just tell some people that they won't play at their funeral
Guess we dont need a cure for cancer
dying laughing maybe
putting the "fun" in funeral
As a band student I love this
These parents must be REALLY proud...
They played so well. You can tell they’ve been practicing for months.
Absolutely

2:46 You can see the mom's expression on her face when the whole band played.
"You're laughing. Children are playing Jingle Bells and you're laughing."
This piece has a balance between highly organized structure and improvisational spontaneity.
This is constructive criticism. Always find the good side in everything, even with a few... wrong notes.
The soloist actually has better tone than 90% of middle school trumpet players and probably half of high school trumpet players.
Pftt that’s just overrating the kid being realistic he’s better than 20% of middle schoolers and 12% better than high schoolers if we’re being honest
It has become a tradition to come back to this video every once in a while.
I will be too!!!!!

Ever you need to laugh
@@shea2221it's exactly this 😂

The soloist made a few mistakes but he had a really nice sound!
I came here quite depressed, leaving a little happier.
Pure, unbridled JOY! Hands down my favorite version of Jingle Bells - laughing at the sound & cheering for the kids and their enthusiasm. This is the way music is meant to be. Thank you for posting!

I'm so glad someone recorded this.

Heard Yes is using them on their next tour.
Any person who is a band director of kids this age deserves all sorts of honors. I saw my younger brothers turn into good musicians due to a band director who made kids love music and love playing music. We all have to start somewhere. BTW - I tried playing the violin in the sixth grade and was so bad my mother made me quit because she could not stand to hear me practice at home.
I wholeheartedly agree with you. The school my kids all attended introduced kids to band in the 3rd grade, after Christmas, with a concert in May. They start out with all of the students that play a particular instrument learning together so they can spend more time focusing on one instrument during a class time instead of wasting time with all of the students and all of the different instruments during the same class. A couple of weeks before the end of year concert, all the students finally get to practice together. They are TOTALLY thrilled about what they have accomplished. And the parents are thrilled too. All 4 of my kids started in the 3rd grade band. I’ve gone to about 18 concerts that included the 3rd grade, (from my oldest’s 1st concert until my youngest started performing with the high school band.) It was great to see their improvements each year. Some stayed with their original instruments, while some changed. But ALL improved their minds and lives because of what they learned musically. And it all started with 3rd grade band.
Their debut concert sounded very much like this one. The director definitely needs to be commended because it HAS to be hard to work with beginners. I would venture to say that all the negative comments are people who didn’t have their kids in elementary beginning band, but God knows that since they can remain anonymous, they think they know everything and if THEY were the director, the outcome would definitely be different. But I seriously doubt the outcome would be different.
Bravo to the director, the students, and the parents.
thats pretty rude of your mother
My parents made my brother practice trumpet in the garage because he was so bad - no wonder he gave up music for sports haha
You should have explained your mom that playing the violin takes years to learn. I’ve been playing for 3 years now and I still sound kinda bad
i had a music teacher who i very much admired from 4th grade untill i graduated, and let me tell you when i first started in clarinet it was by no means pretty. lots of broken reads and greasy fingers haha 😂 but my teacher always made me feel special and talented. a teacher like that can make you realize so much about music, way beyond the notes and melodies. i think everyone should have a music teacher like this 😭
The symphonic sounds are just so amazing~! Their dynamics, are just so amazing! The trumpet does a perfect job at filling the ensamble in!
I hope every single one of these kids grows up to be successful musicians and look back on this and laugh
They really pulled it together for that 2nd verse though 👏👏👏👍
Thats cuz they werent playing, it was a cd
@@ivgorm9365 The CD didn’t even sound good though 💀
@@ivgorm9365Really? Lmao
It's cause the 2nd part was played by the more experienced kids in the orchestra
2:32 The hardest drop in history.
In the name of LingLing this is sacrilegious-
Anyway the trumpet player was amazing-
This lives rent free in my head. The quality is inversely matched perfectly with the enthusiasm and perseverance
I love how the conductor who is most likely the band teacher, encites enthusiasm in his students by engaging as much vigour in his conducting as the students do in playing disfunctionally, knowing that he's done his part. He's like a proud parent. This is hilariously funny and cute all at the same time.
2:34 When everyone started looking at each other 💀💀💀
☠️☠️☠️
I was really confused when the people started to slam their hands together, but then the video labeled that section as “applause” and I immediately understood. Thanks!
Absolutely incredible. This arrangement reminded me of the hit 2019 film The Lighthouse.
