- Staff Sgt. Torin Olsen of the West Point Band performs the piccolo solo from John Philip Sousa's "The Stars and Stripes Forever." Excerpts taken from two separate concerts live at West Point.
Imagine this: you have a sister who plays piccolo and got this solo. Just imagine how many times she played this (and made you listen to it...)
😂 im sorry for you
I am the sister
im the sister...but a guy
NO TRILL LEFT BEHIND!!!
YES!
Nice !
I trilled
The trill that will save the earth from the aliens (from outer space... duh) LoLoL
maybe princess poppy grew up to play the picc
I had to play this solo in my school's winter concert and it was so hard😂 I've never practiced anything more than I practiced this
As long as you practiced :D
He looks WAY too excited for his ear to be blown to complete bits
Life is sour. Put some of your sugar in it The Piccolo in high notes can actually damage your hearing since so close to your ear.
Lmao it doesn't hurt but I still wear ear protection wax in my right ear
@@bluforrestleaf I'll tell you what hurts, sitting in front of the trumpet section during a fortissimo
JonatasAdoM no just sitting in front of the trumpet section at any dynamic marking
Bold of you to assume he can still hear after playing Piccolo for so many years
0:51 - 1:21 OH MY GOSH HE PLAY THAT PICCOLO SO FAST I WISH I COULD
DO THAT.
I could play the alto sax that fast, I'm not bragging. I'm 14
KillerOHerobrine ! probably
KillerOHerobrine !
Well...OK
KillerOHerobrine ! ... Gotta love the modesty and not at all blatant bragging of the UA-cam section.
Nintendoge _ sorry
I have 57 more days until I preform this as my first solo.... So nervous
How did you do?!!
flutefun999 piccolo ate him... it was all over the news
Jenna Gesel a bit late but good luck!
Not realizing how did you do?
y tho Ir it was catastrophic
I'm currently playing piccolo in my marching band, and this is one of my life goals. I always come pack to this video because I just love how well they play this solo.
I started playing piccolo a little over a year ago and my band director just informed me that he wants to get the piccolo solo for stars and stripes forever for me to play on veteran's day this year and I'm really happy that I'll have a solo because I love playing but I'm also really nervous about it.
Good luck!
RaineOrShine 2 Your just a few days away, are you all ready for your solo!!? Let us know how it goes. 😊🕊🌈❤️ Good Luck to you 😀 just to let you know, I could never play piccolo, but I played flute and still do. I am also a US Army veteran.
@@kathleenl4387 Thank you for your service :)
mine too! i had 3 weeks to practice and memorize it but it was so fun when i got to perform it
This is pure ear candy! NICELY DONE, SIR! And he plays it with such confidence and polish and obvious joy! That's like the icing on the cake! ❤️
We'll pass the kind words along to our flutist :)
音柔らかくて好きすぎる。
めちゃめちゃきれい
I had to play this from memory in high school while marching down main street in the Veteran's Day Parade. One of my proudest moments. Trust me, this is not something you just pick up. This takes a LOT of breath control, concentration and timing. I applaud these soldiers. They did a perfect job.
に、日本人いませんかー?
うますぎませんか...?
日本人です!!
うますぎです!!
音がめっちゃ柔らかいw
日本人です!!
めっちゃ上手ですよね!!
This is my flute, there are many others like it but this one is a Piccolo.
Wow, he's got superb sound!!!
透明感と心地よい軽さが絶妙!
This has inspired me to start playing the piccolo😃
I know this is late but piccolo is so fun to play, you should do it :)
Grace Luneack I asked my husband if I should learn to play the Piccolo in this stage of my life. He said... NO !. he was in marching band.
lily morris i want to but it seems so expensive...
tyler caelian it depends on the type of piccolo you get, some are more expensive than others
So, did you learn
Brings back great memories of playing the Stars and Stripes Forever piccolo part with the FAU jazz band, and other concerts... and the Marine Band I woulda-shoulda joined many years ago!
This is my piccolo. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My piccolo is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
Without me, my piccolo is useless. Without my piccolo, I am useless.
XKT035 the best Jarhead reference I have ever seen
One of my favorite piccolo solos
Started playing piccolo this year as a freshman. Hope to be able to play this by seinor year.
WOooooooOw! That was such a beautiful solo! Beautiful music sir.
I needed to hear that again.
The most awesome part of the most awesome song! Excellent job. You make it look easy!
This is so cute and beautiful. Good job!
I know, it makes me smile! Great talent too!
I wonder how many times this man has played this tune! Mastery!
His tone is very good for the high notes.
Played this by memory when I was in my high school marching band *ahem* years ago. Not easy! This is fabulous - wish I had been able to be that precise! Favorite march because of the piccolo part, and this makes it better.
Life goals
When you're a tuba player and never get a solo ever so you have to start playing piccolo(:
Woah
beautiful
I just got a piccolo for band and want to learn this now!!
What a wonderful performance!!!
Played this solo for two years in the Marine Corps band. Very well executed. Good phrasing and articulation.
Well done!
I watch this every day. I wish I could do this.
Only a truly happy person could play such a cheery instrument.
The first guy just looked so happy to be there
This is so much fun to play on piccolo!!!
ispeak4detrees why does everyone get a piccolo sex doll i should warn you his power level is high.
This is the bane of all flute and piccolo players
My hero I listen to this every day as a flute student :)
Wow. That guy is my hero. Perfect tempo, crisp. Not easy !
Very clean!!
大洗高校もこれやってた!あの時ピッコロやってた人バチクソうまかった。動きながらだから本当に凄かった!
ピッコロ音柔らかすぎる…小鳥のさえずりみたい。ピッコロはもちろん後ろも上手すぎる…
I have to watch this for my online school
So many trills, such high notes
I love trills
Nailed it
Excelent performance.
I have to learn this song for a concert...a 7th and 8th grade band... on flute... by November....
TheGirlWhoLikesComedy ._. Good Luck to you and let us know how well you do 😊🕊🌈❤️
Kathleen Lirette my band director cut this song because it was so bad😂
TheGirlWhoLikesComedy ._. I’m sorry he had to cut it. It’s a beautiful march, but pretty difficult. Especially if you are limited on time. Maybe in a year or two 😊. Thank you for responding😀. Are y’all playing other patriotic music? 🇺🇸
Kathleen Lirette yes we are. We are play the National Anthem, American Spirit March and Fanfare for Freedom
TheGirlWhoLikesComedy ._. Good for y’all!! It just makes me feel awesome to listen and play patriotic songs and marches. I still play my flute 😊 and I am also a US Army veteran. I know I’m kinda old, but I graduated from high school in 1979. My daughter who graduated in 2010 was Pit Captain her senior year and also played the steel drums for 6 years. My husband played many instruments in band, and went on to play professionally.
I’m sorry, too much reminiscing. I hope you enjoy band, and continue as long as you are fulfilled by it. 😊🕊🌈❤️
Beautiful. I love 💘 this.
Hardest damn thing to play... period.
YEESSS MY INSTRUMEEENNTTTT He did so well. Wonder what it would sound like on the flute🤔
learning this and playing it soon on piccolo. excited yet nervous for the solo
Crisp and clear, nice technique. Excellent job!
COOL
This is lit
I cannot get the Ab without a giant thump of air. I. Hate. High notes.
reminds me of peter and the wolf :)
yass grandfather yasss.
I love this solo!!!!
Bellissimo!
Studying it from Italy! ❤️🎉
How can 95 trolls dislike this? Hell, I wish I could play it at all, let alone so fast and flawlessly
Bravo!

Fantastic player
This puts my piccolo playing to shame.
Perfection!
That's just freakin' awesome.
he is awesome
Excellent!!
STARS AND STRIPES PICCOLO SOLO - WEST POINT BAND
The most famous composition "THE STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER"...written by John Philip Sousa in 1896 has become the most popular and really recognized march of all time.
It has captured the spirit of American patriotism and in 1987, President Ronald Reagan signed an act of Congress designating " The Stars and Stripes Forever " as the NATIONAL MARCH OF THE UNITED. STATES. ...
On 2 ocassions in 2011, Staff Sgt.Torin Olsen of the West Point Band performed the Piccolo Solo from the score of this important march composition. As a musician, he stood front and center and with all his talent , charm and guts...."blew" each note in that melodius score in fortissimo while the flute section played the original melody in pianissimo to accompany his piccolo solo ...
Staff Sgt.Torin Olsen, all by himself certainly played his piccolo solo from the score of the most important march composition by JPSousa with Superb execution, with the Obvious print of the composer's genius, Undeniably Satisfactory with Accurate interpretation and delivery, as S-O-U-S-A would want the piccolo solo part of that score played....
While the West Point cadets were thrilled at his performance, IT IS NO QUESTION THAT THE MARCH KING HIMSELF would thank Staff Sgt. Torin Olsen for the brave and courageous stand as he played the piccolo solo of Sousa's score for the most important march. " The Stars and Stripes Forever"....
To the West Point Band a BIG HURRAH for playing the march....but please GIVE A BIG HEART TO OUR SOLO ARTIST for a job well played!!!!!
Thank you Staff Sgt. Torin Olsen cuz you gave me a big smile on my face as i really appreciated your " gutsy" performance. From one musician to another...KUDOS FROM ME ..........FM
so uh im playing this hanging upside down at my spring concert...
YES YES YES
Last week my band director handed out this piece and as I’m the main piccolo in our band I have to do this solo and I’m not prepared but this sounded really good
that's amazing
Them is SOME goosebumps I"ma feeling!
Yay!
Playing this outside on my phone and my chickens all came running over. 😂
Piccolo youre awesome!
Wow, great picc player!!! Great job!!
That time...when the piccolo...conducted the orchestra....yeah...great times (being sincere here. Love piccolo)
awesome solo, face expression pretty funny gotta admit..
Super! Makes it look effortless and fun. Guys who play flute still give me the willies though.
Perfect!

MERAVIGLIOSO!!!! COMPLIMENTI VIVISSIMI 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Why is the projection so good
Alright, so who wants to make a 10 hour version of this?
I am practicing this solo to get a piccolo spot in my college band. I am trying so hard but i'll never be this good!
A piccolo is basically a baby flute.
in tune
나는 한국인입니다
이 동영상 정말 멋지네요. 매일같이 봅니다.
이런생각도 해봅니다.
저도 저기서 악기를 저사람처럼 부르고 싶다고...
that 2nd dude rocked it!!!
Anyone who doesn't get chills down the spine is dead from the neck up.
Head of Music at school: YOU have a month to learn picc from scratch and sound like this
Me: ..................
Wish I could hear Stephanie Edwards do that again--WITHOUT the piccolo ! She could whistle the whole thing perfectly .
Mi inspiración
I'd pay for that !!!!
I’m playing this on picc in my wind ensemble for competition in a few months!
👏👏👏
