Once I desperately had to pee during Scheherazade. It was either sneak out to relieve myself or pee in my pants, so I chose to sneak out to relieve myself (I sat back of the first violins). When I came back, it was during the concertmasters' solo... I knocked over his stand... during his solo... in front of everyone :)
I'm an organist. You can hit a button to basically silence the organ and play the keys with nothing coming out. Let's just say I decided to have a little practice during a sermon, and the button wasn't pressed.
I once nodded off on stage while counting over 100 measures of rest. In andante. Conductor was going to give a cue since it's a lot of counting... But the music put me to sleep and I was already tired from earlier. Thankfully, my second chair poked me and whispered "hey, your solo's coming up!!" XD
Counting actually makes you really tired, it's not imagining sheep that's sleep inducing, it's repetitive boring counting. It's why people always count when being put to sleep...that's really embarrassing though, you must be able to relax pretty well! :)
We played Give Us This Day by Maslanka my senior year of HS and it was so difficult not to nod off at the end of the first movement 😂 But trust me, the second movement wakes you up IMMEDIATELY Edit: also, 100 measures of rest? Welcome to percussion lol
I once made that joke to my Piano teacher... She screamed at me for the whole hour of lesson time about how I am disrespecting Jazz... I... Uhmmm… I switched piano teacher next lesson after she was soooooo reluctant to show me anything new...
@@emilia1911 In the beginning of them yes but the harder I tried to the worst it got until it was just me trying to hide my hiccups while looking like I was still playing
But on a serious note, Do things you love doing, that can make you happy 🤤 and if there’s someone stopping you from reaching that goal then slap them with your strong passion and determination, If there’s a will, then there is always be a way ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
I think I can compete with Eddy. I have: 1) arrived at tour destination before I realized my violin was still at the school 2) gotten 3/4 of the way to rehearsal (45 min drive) before I realized my violin was still at home 3) arrived at rehearsal before I realized I left my bow on the stand at home 4) forgotten my place in a solo set and repeated a song I played 5 minutes earlier 5) forgotten my hanging bag so many times
Oof... bro. Time to use a checklist strategy if you haven't started yet. Before I go anywhere or do anything, I run through my checklist. Obviously it's not foolproof, cause sometimes the checklist changes and you forget the new changes, but this has prevented my forgetting big ticket items.
This one still haunts me: For my senior culminating project in high school, I arranged several pieces for our concert band, and acted as the teacher and concert conductor for the pieces. The theme for the concert they were being played in was a tribute to Michael Jackson. On the night of the concert, we were starting with “We are the World”. The band thought it would be a nice touch to project a slideshow of Michael Jackson images on the stage wall behind the band as we played. I had told my friend who was running the projector that I would give him a signal when I was done talking to the audience and we were going to start the piece. Unfortunately, being as nervous as I was, I forgot to give him the signal, and turned to the band to prepare them to start playing. After I had lifted my baton, and the band was at attention, it dawned on me that I forgot to give the signal, and so I turned around to my friend real quick and signaled him to start the slideshow. Well, the band thought I forgot to say something to the audience and went back into rest position to wait for me to finish. I was already flustered, and when I turned back to the band, rather than making sure they were still ready, I immediately started conducting my upbeat. Let’s just say every instrument that was supposed to come in together for the intro, staggered in about two beats apart from each other in a panic, and were all in different tempos. After about 2 bars, I had to signal to stop. I apologized to the audience for my mistake and started again. Second time it went fine, but I remember that story any time I conduct.
I was front desk seconds during one competition- I went to turn the page and accidentally knocked the music off the stand and it slid all the way next to the conductor’s stand. He had to bend down while conducting with one hand to give it back to us and that moments haunts me still
We had a concert outdoors today and it was kinda windy, so then the clips I had holding the pages down weren’t strong enough and then all the 15 pages of loose paper just fell to the ground during the middle of a song.. me and my stand partner we’re just panicking together
Horror story: Went to concert with my violin all ready in freezing weather. When I got my violin to tune, bridge just *snapped!* No replacement at the time AND the only violinist..................... Out of commission..............
@@kwanzatrotman6337 Well, I literally couldn't play that night and had to take it to my luthier to make sure the sound post didn't shift because of how the bridge snapped and it was horrible weather for any wood instruments. I couldn't play for a few days and was relieved to get it back. I was playing with a band that thought it would be nominal for a violin to join. Had been with them since I was a teen and stayed with them well until my young adult years and they broke up due to changing interests. When this happened, I think I was around 17 years old.
@@kathyomier8221 Wow. Well, lesson terribly learned about the instrument and the weather. I do hope future violinists - indeed all instrumentalists - can avoid this dilemma. Thanks for sharing!
That would be awesome, but Ling Ling doesn't need any violin to play the violin, he can pull a single strand of hair as a violin if needed, and use another strand of hair as the bow
I really would love to listen to him sing a full song SERIOUSLY, and not just as part of the comedy. I think he has a very nice tone to his voice, which is the important part. Singing technique can be trained.
I once forgot a single note in the piece I was playing during a concert. Since I couldn't remember, my teacher had to tell me the note from the audience. Apparently I was so mad after that that I played the rest of the piece incredibly passionately. Never managed that same kind of fortissimo since then. XD
LOL the same thing happened to me and I ended up cracking some awkward jokes at the audience when I had to go back trying to remember what the note was cause I didn't know what else to do
My organ teacher : Did you practice ? Me : Yes, but er... i forgot my organ at home... Teacher : Too bad... Me : I'm so sorry 😿😿😿 Teacher : So, see you next week ! Me : ... 👌Perfect excuse !
oo gosh..... i was in an orchestra and we had a concert... but then a first violin opened her case and THERE WASN'T A VIOLIN IN ITTTT!! edit: GUYS THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 1K LIKES!!! :)
I once was late to an orchestra concert and I didn't know the layout of the concert hall, because I was late, and I straight-up just walked through the audience to the stage, violin in hand and was wearing a different tie from everybody else (everyone was wearing a black bow tie and I was wearing a red regular tie). That was 5 years ago and I still cringe to this day.
I really wonder, if you are late is it important to attend ? because most of you run late but still going .... sorry I am not a musician so I have no idea, I feel bad for asking such question. it sounds offensive.... sorry again :/
I was playing the drums in primary school but every time I kicked the bass drum it moved forward. About halfway through the song it fell of the stage. I fell backwards taking a snare drum and crash cymbal with me.
That's why we always put a carpet under the drums at my school. I play the piano/sometimes keyboard, and the pedal for the keyboard also slowly works it way forward. Hate it.
I finally got around to watching this. Here’s my embarrassing story: during an orchestra rehearsal in conservatory, the conductor (a notoriously harsh, critical woman who was feared by all) stopped the rehearsal abruptly, pointed straight at me, and yelled, “you’re not doing the right bowing. Get it right!” We start playing again, I apparently played the wrong bowing again, and she stops the orchestra AGAIN and says, “we’re not going on until you play this bowing correctly”. At this point I blacked out from embarrassment, and don’t remember what happened next... I must have finally played the bowing correctly, but I was scarred for life. Thanks, Prof Reischl (yeah I’m calling you out) for giving me major ptsd. Ugh.
Hope you ended up somewhere better and that she's has no friends around in her life that have to be subjected to her. Sounds like she clearly isn't fit to be around human beings. People like that need to go to therapy and get help for anger issues before they're in charge of anything.
Can I just say this: They always talk trash bout other people, and usually people like that pretend to be perfect, however, two set are so humble as to worship their mistakes and make jokes bout them. This *needs* applause. 👏
Musicians are always ribbing each other, it's just part of who they are. If you've reached a professional level it's because you've got a competitive nature that drives you to improve.
One time I was leading my section and we were about to come in for a really quiet, delicate phrase and just before we started playing my desk partner sneezed really violently and it startled me so much I jumped, knocked the stand and missed the entry. There was laughter from behind.
Ik it’s long but read until the end, it’s good. Story time- this was my first year playing violin and I was still In the beginners orchestra at my school. Very early in the school year when we were still learning to read treble clef, I broke my violin. I was practicing one night and set it down on my bed to use the bathroom. When I came back I wasn’t paying attention to what I was doing and sat down on my bed. All I heard was a crunch and the E string snap. I got up and saw that THE WHOLE NECK HAD BROKEN OFF. The only thing keeping it from falling was the stings. The next day I showed up to school and I told my orchestra director what happened and she just laughed it off and said I could borrow a school violin until mine got fixed. I tried my best to keep this on the down low, and did a pretty good job! Then, at the very end of the year, our last concert came. Many orchestras were playing that night, and there was an intermission right before my orchestra was going to play. So we went to put or instruments on stage, where they would stay through out the intermission. The director told us to put or violins on our chairs. Then she said “now make sure when you come back, you don’t do what, Skye? (I’m Skye) Me- “sit on your violin?” Her- “yes, because what happens when you sit on your violin?” Me- “it’ll will break in half😞” For the next 3 years I was known as Snapper Booty. Edit: also the whole audience was still in the auditorium dead silent, so there were a good 200 people who knew about it
I remember in a rehearsal break with my school orchestra somebody accidentally sat on another one's violin, and the fingerboard went out...luckily it wasn't me...
Yeah, Brett's voice is really nice when he's not butchering his vocal cords, Haha. Pretty much anyone can actually have nice voices. That's what I'd recommend to anyone who wants to change their sound, even if it's just for speaking. That's right up the alley of a vocal coach. It's not something that I do professionally, just mainly for me and my friends, but there are some really good ones on UA-cam, and you can learn a lot about changing how you sound (like being less nasally is something a person might want to accomplish).
Devin Sussex Graves the Voicesmith wait... what are you talking about? I think you missed the sentence that explains exactly what you’re recommending to people....
August 2019: I forgot my violin at home thinking it was in the trunk of my car. I was on my way to the New York Youth Chamber Competition and I found out I was missing my violin 2 minutes before we got there. One of my most disappointing days of my life. I had to play a 3/4 size student violin and a practice bow for my audition. Smh
In my first recital, my a string was severely out of tune and I didn’t have time to tune it before, so two notes into my part, my teacher had to stop me in front of everyone and tune for me
So I’m a flautist and during a concert, the music on my stand partner’s side began to fall forward very slowly through the beginning of the piece. Let’s just say her attempts to make it stay up while playing were futile and when she tried to pick it up on the middle of the concert, she knocked over the stand and in turn knocked over the stand next to ours.
@@emmanuelmerryfield3253 ah but at least he won;t skip practice altogether. That one concert where he had to read over some one's shoulder to play is a good example :)
I remember my very first piano recital in middle school. I got to the auditorium dressed up in my black and white dress ready to play. My teacher finishes the introduction to the recital and starts calling people up to play. Immediately I find out that I’m the VERY first person up. 😥 I was thinking, “Well, this is a surprise. No big deal. I practiced.” I get up on stage and it’s dead quiet. So I begin my piece, but maybe 2 bars into the piece...I flat out stop because I forgot my piece in that instant. It took me maybe 10-20 seconds to actually remember my piece. I finished the piece and got off stage. Everyone still said I did very well. 😂 That recital still haunts me to this day (it’s been 11 years).
To be serious for a moment, this video was really helpful for someone who's just started out playing with an orchestra. At least I know everyone makes mistakes and everyone feels embarrassed at some point ... NOT JUST ME.
But also...this video reminded me that I have a (1st flute) solo in the new orchestra piece I just got, and I'm hearing all these stories about mistakes, and they've psyched me out so bad now
@@CallMeTactu it went really well :) the concert was actually just a few days ago. The solo was absolutely crazy, and I'd never been able to get it completely right in rehearsal, but I somehow did better in the concert - and I'm a person who gets intense stage fright. The piece was almost too advanced for a high school orchestra, so I'm happy we survived :)
K Lu hi I know I’m six months late but I am notorious for having things go miserably wrong for me during concerts. I have had my music blow shut during the most difficult part of my SOLO. My favorite is one time I dropped my bow on stage while everyone was playing pizzicato so it echoed. It also bounced away from me so I had to get out of my seat to get it. It wouldn’t have been quite so bad if I weren’t first violin first chair so I was centerstage and all eyes were on me. The entire audience gasped and everyone still reminds me of it three years later. Trust me, you’ll make plenty of awful mistakes but all of us have😂
That moment when you open your mouth before you take in a deep breath to calm your sh*t, 😂🤣🤣 Omg, so relatable. Back then I could imagine myself doing that cause of how late my parents dropped me off for any performance or rehearsal. I sang and played clarinet back then. Sooo for people who think this doesn't make sense, remember that there are actually many vocalists that play instruments too! I haven't touched an instrument in ages, but thanks to TwoSet, it's only a matter of time before I pick up something again, whether it's the clarinet, violin, or something exotic or unusual like harp or guzheng, mainly cause those instruments have a ton of strings, and they're also very eye catching without even touching them!
oof big embarrassing story: i know most people here are in orchestra. I was in orchestra as well (cello), but I was also in band. My most embarrassing story happened to be during marching band, it's bad, like so bad, so strap in for a ride. As a backstory, I play the saxophone and I was one of the top saxophonists in the band, however due to an issue the school was having, I had to march that season with a trashy instrument that tended to literally fall apart while marching (since i play one of the uncommon saxophones, the school lends one to us so we don't have to buy it ourselves). Marching band is all about how clean and straight the shapes the band makes on field, anyone who is outside or makes the shape blurry is deducted points. Story time: my band was in a NATIONAL competition (Bands of America), we were marching and everything is going great. Until we get to the most intense and iconic part of the show. I'm marching, when suddenly the top part my instrument falls onto the floor as I was running into the new shape (called a set). We're in a hold, in which you are not supposed to move, at all, ever, no matter what, but the top half of my instrument is on the floor, yards away from where i was standing. since my instrument is owned by the school, i couldn't just leave it on the floor to get destroyed and potentially be a danger to other marchers to trip on, so i go and pick it up and quickly reattach it. EVERY ONE STARED AT ME. If i had left it on the floor, we would have had more points deducted compared to the action i took. You can see in the video that was streamed nationally, a tiny person move very far away during what clearly is supposed to be a holding triangle shape. to make it worse, my fellow band members did not understand what i did and the entire band made fun of me until i explained what happened. also as i made my way back into the spot i had to be in, the band started to move again and someone ran into me and busted my lip open. now i was playing on with a broken instrument, with a badly bleeding lip, on national streaming, with the band mad at me. the good news is that we still passed to finals. but ive never seen so many people stare at me in disgust for something that was not entirely my fault and it was soo embarrassing
That sounds painful... I'm glad you recovered though! You definitely dealt with it a lot better than I would have -- I would have just frozen in panic :'D
Brett: "...and everyone is looking at you!" Listeners: "Wait they just stopped for real? What happened?!" Srsly like 90% of the public doesn't notice the mistakes in an orchestra ^^
The conductor notices. I made an identical mistake as Brett - forgot about a repeat in Mozart - and the conductor killed me with his gaze. He literally killed me. I had to be resurrected.
I was in a piano recital and two of my friends were playing in it as well. As my first friend went up to play, they left their music behind on purpose because they had it memorized. But not knowing that fact, my second friend got up, while friend 1 was in the middle of a piece, and tried to put the music on the bench next to them. Fortunately, friend 1 kept going. But friend 2 was confused so they tried to put the music on the piano and open it to the right page. Friend 1 actually stopped playing one hand to shoo friend 2 away. My teacher didn’t know what to do, and neither did I since neither of us could stop friend 2. It was pretty funny, even though it didn’t happen to me. My poor friends tho we’re both really embarrassed. I also played a whole recital on a keyboard that had a nonfunctioning pedal. My teacher told me to just keep going when I found her in the audience. They changed the pedal after I was done playing. That was enjoyable. When we played 1812 at state festival, the last page fell off my music stand so I had to play it from memory. (I played upright bass that time so I didn’t have a stand partner to look off of). Thankfully I didn’t mess up. At my most recent piano recital, my dress got caught under the bench. It was fine while I was playing, but after I stood up to bow, I realized it was caught and had to turn around to lift up the extremely heavy (for some reason) bench and I could hardly lift it. The audience was confused and thought I was bowing again, and they weren’t sure whether or not to keep clapping. At the same recital, I played a duet with someone but they didn’t set up two benches. After bowing, my duet partner did the same thing as Brett, smiled politely, held up a finger, and walked off stage. She couldn’t find an extra bench so in the end, she brought out a green chair. In my school orchestra concert, they decided to have me play piano as filler between a set change the day before. Because I wasn’t in the program, the light crew thought I was a recording and I started playing in the dark, thinking they would spot me. They didn’t. I made it halfway though the piece before my hands lost their place because I was essentially playing blindfolded, and I had to yell up to the booth to have them turn on the lights. The whole audience bust out laughing and then began to applaud me, but I was so flustered I could hardly continue from where I left off, but I did finish the piece. There are plenty more. But I think my pride as a musician has already been wounded enough for the entertainment of the comments section.
speaking of ballets... i'm an ex dancer. and in a mid-season showcase like recital, (my first year on the school's competitive team actually) i had a few numbers, in a long show. so i finish one. go back stage, start changing. the change room's empty, the speaker playing live audio from the stage... and i had some time. and me, i've always lived by the philosophy "If you have time, use it". had suspenders, had a tie, had to safety pin said suspenders/tie, had to throw on tap shoes... and suddenly i hear my next number on the speakers. my panicked mind said, *whelp. guess i'm not going on for this number*. rather than get my shit together and sprint on mid number. my brain worked out that that'd have the least impact on the audience's viewing experience... which if i was a normal core dancer, that would probably only really have been a big problem for me, when next i saw my teacher. EXCEPT for the fact that i'm a dude, in a school where dudes are a rare commodity, and so i had partner work, and a partner on stage with no dude to lift her.... my teacher let me off lightly for that. walked in the next week, teach puts on the tape, starts talking to the group about things that could've been better, he looks at me, and goes "i don't even want to know."
One time I was in the choir and we were singing Router's "All Things Bright and Beautiful". The thing about that song is that the 1st voice (basically the sopranos but it was a kid's choir) come in first and then the 2nd voice repeats and then they all sing together. The embarrassing part is that I was basically the pillar of the 2nd voice and I had forgotten that my voice's non-unissono part existed, so I just came in at full volume with the wrong text for HALF A PAGE and then, noticing the 1sr voice wasn't singing and decided to shut the heck up abruptly. Also, a few years later, I was in Handel's "Messiah" and there's a movement called "O Thou that Tellest Good Tiding to Zion" which has this weird thing where the sopranos do a little thingy with the word "arise" and then the word "behold". The tricky part is that they do "arise" two times, then "behold" one time (followed by the phrase "the glory of the lord is risen upon thee") and then "behold" again but two times. Guess who was the idiot soprano who did a second "behold" on top of "the glory of the lord is risen upon thee" at full volume?
In high school choir we sang Vivdil’s Gloria. I believe it was after we finished singing Domini Fili Unigentite the choir director said he didn’t like the way we sang it so he was going to have us sing it again. In university chorus we sang the Huron Carol as part of our Christmas concert. We sang the beginning together and for “before their light the start grew dim and wandering hunters heard the hymn” the tenors, basses and baritones sang that while the first/second sopranos and altos vocalized. I started to sing it and a fellow first soprano had to nudge me and say “We don’t sing that part!”
I feel you on that movement in the Messiah. I've done the exact same thing. 🤝😭 Also....I totally didn't jump into the air (full on jump, not kidding) in the Amen chorus when there's the really quiet violin line and then everyone (including timpani) comes in tutti. That. Was terrifying.
>be me two years ago >helping set up for an orchestra for work experience >be unaware of the rule about not clapping between movements >be confused >why isn't anyone else clapping??? >think "hmm I should clap extra loud so other people will join in" >Clapping intensifies >NO IT REALLY FUCKING INTENSIFIES >oh god what have I done.
So there was this year ABRSM exam (forgot which grade which year I play the piano) and then the examiner asked for an A major scale both hands. The room was so cold. My hands: proceeds to play G major scale perfectly. I passed the exam. Thank you.
Lol, someone asked me to play a B major scale on the Bassoon. I took a moment to 'think' prayed he didn't have perfect pitch. Played a Bb major scale. "Great, thank you" big relief
there was this girl in front of me who kept leaning back and draping her hair over my stand so i couldnt see the music but i was still playing and she wasnt
E is for Everyone/ Erik i’m guessing Eddy is the good listener and Brett is the good storyteller if it wasn’t obvious (or if i’m stupid and got their names mixed up idk im new)
I remember I was a soloist. I nailed it in rehearsals, the conductor was so proud of me he was taken aback at how good I was. When it came time to perform, the damn conductor sped up my solo part by like 15 bpm! (It was supposed to be a very slow piece.) I was so shocked at how fast the tempo was, that I had to recalculate the math in my head, that I came in a whole beat late which by the end of my solo, I was a whole bar behind. Oh my god I was so embarrassed and he HATED me ever since. What’s worse, NOBODY in the audience thought I messed up and they all were amazed at what they heard. They absolutely LOVED it! They were moved and felt that everything was played perfectly and went well with the music. And I agreed it sounded better with me behind lmao. Even my band mates thought it sounded even better than rehearsal. I’m like how!? But I knew, the conductor knew and he was so mad everyone loved the performance like this. Before he left, he told me, make sure you look up. His face was red and he drove off. So embarrassing 🤣
Ray Chen, the hobo old man that is an expert but goes around mingling with lesser violinists on the street. Hilary Hahn, the beautiful S ranked expert violinist our protagonists run into during a concert and they are immediately mesmerized by her.
Story time: I play guitar, violin, and (sadly) viola Guitar story: This happened in middle school during this thing called Music in the Parks. I brought, what I believed to be a guitar, but me, being high on coffee at five am, went with an empty case. I realized on the bus and quickly called my dad who, thankfully, brought it right before the competition. Thanks dad Violin story: I was in my Middle School Cinamusic concert, and was playing Hanging Tree. My G-string broke during MY SOLO!!!!! Everyone was just quiet as I moved to the back and switched out the violin. Viola: No
When I played in my first piano competition, I was really nervous. I sat down at the piano, and started to play my piece fairly well, with few mistakes. But then, it got to the second part of the recapitulation, and I panicked and forgot the part. I ended up skipping that part and played the rest of the movement and the one after that shaking. Also, I somehow got a bronze medal when I skipped like four measures.
Okay I actually didn't think I had any stories but I DO--- I was playing at a student recital once, and I was playing La Folia by A. Corelli, which isn't the easiest piece (if you don't know it, look it up--the time sigs are constantly switching, it's a hassle to play). And I had a piano accompaniment playing with me. And so I'm tuning and all when suddenly the pianist comes over and goes "I don't have your sheet music with me." I started like FREAKING OUT and I'm searching in my music bag for spare sheet music. Apparently the heavens were in my favor, because I had recently had an audition and still had that sheet music with me. (Yes, the music for piano even though I play violin. Don't ask why--I don't know.) so I gave them what I *thought* was the piano accompaniment and sat down, breathing a sigh of relief. Cut to near the end of the performance, it's my turn. I go up, start playing. I get to the third-to-last section with the double stops (the fast one, dadedadedadedodedodedode) and I'm playing--and the pianist. Stops. And I'm PANICKING. I'm playing and my tempo is going all over the place and I'm just sending frantic glances towards them out of the corner of my eye and my teacher is making hand motions like "just keep going!" So, still freaking out, I did. I finished the piece, everyone applauded really loudly, and I went back to my seat with what I am positive was a BRIGHT RED face. After the recital my teacher comes up to me and is like "do you know what happened?" Apparently, it WASNT THE FULL PIANO SHEET MUSIC. It was only like two pages. So for a half page this pianist improv-Ed before just giving up and sitting back. Thank goodness it was on the double stop part, so at least it sounded alright. And yet, when you watch a playback of me doing it, you'd never know anything was wrong. (Which utterly astounds me, because I was fReAkInG oUt, MaN) So yeah, that's MY embarrassing violin story... EDIT: Oh my god why is this one of the upper comments help my embarrassment- But I hope this helped you guys feel less bad about whatever happened to you! ^^'
Once I was taking my trumpet out from the storage room at my school, and accidentally took out a saxophone instead. My first reaction was “Ooh, shiny!”
I was playing on the piano for a school talent show. I had a key solo part first. I was SO NERVOUS my left hand failed me, so I played my solo with my right hand (melody) only. I've never had a more tragic moment in my life, because my friends were supposed to come in at a certain chord on my left hand. Bless them for memorizing the counts. 😂😂😢😢
I played flute in my school band, and to this day I'm still not sure why or how this happened... We were holding a concert at a church and everything was going well, I was nervous as hell, as this was my first performancesince getting first chair. The churches stage was this hard concrete shelled block of a thing. At first, everything went great. We were sounding pretty awesome. Then it happened. About halfway through the second piece, and the foot joint fell off my flute and clanged to the ground and bounced. Loudly. My entire section stuttered and trailed off into silence. The director stopped mid performance in shock. I had to scramble under three different seats to find it. When I finally found it (by this point the whole band had stopped) I slammed it back on my instrument and we continued. Side note; there were no strings in my band, so my section was front, stage right. Meaning my chair, and me, were the very front of the band.... I wanted to sink into the ground and die. Anywho.... That's my most embarrassing story from my band days.
Eddy’s (and Brett’s) forgetting problem: Forgetting to visit the largest state of Australia. Tours all of Australia.... wait no, just everywhere but Perth. Goes international, EU, US, ASIA, Australia.... still forgets Perth. Says they won’t forget Perth in 2017, as they will visit in end of 2018... still forgets even though it’s mid 2019. Brett and Eddy, please come to Perth, a city of the largest state in all of Australia; Western Australia
Alright, I have many stories but I'll say three - some from being a student and some as a teacher. Read for your amusement! :) 1) I was really sick for one of our competition festivals. We were in the second piece out of three, when I felt like I needed to throw up. I played my bell part in the beginning and then crawled on stage to go off stage during a long rest period. I threw up in a trash can (I felt so much better after that), then I proceed to crawl back. Looking back, idk why I even crawled lmao. But I came back on time, and played the important port crash right at the end. 2) The entire cello section forgot their music for a concert for a bunch of elementary and middle school kids. I still don't know how we all forgot our music. This was also the same concert when the percussion section forgot their music too (I was in both sections lol). Luckily, two people had music in their cases, so we all just shared it. 3) As a music teacher, during practice I had a student who clearly was not about practicing whatsoever. During one of our rehearsals, they decided to eat Hot Cheetos - and touch EVERYTHING. I was so upset that I yelled at them and told them to go to the bathroom and wash their hands. I went to help other students, and when I came back, this student was eating a ROTISSERIE CHICKEN. Apparently, his mom dropped off food because he was hungry. He ended up quitting music and I never saw him again. Things to note: don't forget your music, have a trash can near you if you're sick, and no cheeto fingers.
My high school band went to NCMEA, a very prominent music educators convention. Teachers and players from all around the state were there. We were rehearsing on stage when we discover that the entire bass clarinet section didn’t bring their music, (which is now 4 hours away.) I don’t remember how the resolved it but the director was not happy to say the least.
Once I was playing in orchestra for some play (I play the clarinet), and there were around 200 people there, which isn't too many I suppose, but I remember the flautist next to me knocked into my clarinet, which made me suddenly squeak, during the *romantic* scene. I remember that the theatre was just suddenly filled with pure silence, because the rest of the orchestra had unintentionally stopped to look to see who it was. And half the people *didn't know it was me* but my face turned SO red and then I SNEEZED, almost dropping my clarinet in the process. This time the actors also turned to stare at me and I could hear people in the audience laughing. Used to be the most embarrassing day of my life. LOL.
I once had a blackout in a competition while playing the piano. As always I wanted to play without the score open. I started with Bach and messed up in one spot, so I couldn't move on anymore. I thought:"Well, I'll just start over", tried again and messed up at the same spot!!. I tried once again, again and again and all the time I messed it up, because I forgot the score completely!!At that moment I couldn't continue, my father was looking angry, my teacher was shocked and all of the sudden the jury started to whisper and the whole audience were shocked and me sitting on the piano and completely embarassed that I immediately started to cry. (To my justice, I was 12 in that one) Since that moment, I really have an ancienty problem to play for an audience or during competitions, my heart is pounding like hell, because bad memories comes up so quick that I have to erase them or fully concentrate while playing.
I have been there.. my teacher said 1st mistake was choosing JSB. the second not having it perfect. 3rd stopping and trying to repeat 4th failing at each attempt...
Why in the hell where you a 12 yo in a competition with people expecting so much from you ?? So young, nobody should be pressured this much at this age This is awful i feel bad for you Also wtf bach at age 12?o_o
@@Revengeur72 that's pretty usual for a pianist (also practice to play for a big audience)This is like playing football in a league. Yoz have to do competitions to earn reputation for your future
Raknar playing Bach at 12 is pretty average for pianists, I began playing 2-part inventions at piano competitions at 9 which was pretty stressful tho -_- I ended up getting a memory slip and cried when I walked off the stage
Eddy’s forgetting problem:
Level 1: forgetting his violin
Level 2: forgetting the story of him forgetting the violin.
so true!!
hahaha
Level 3: forgetting his sister brought him his violin.
Level 3: forgetting that he forgot his violin
Level 4: forgetting that he has a violin
:P
Level 5: forgetting his family and friends and becoming a shut-in
Level 6: forgetting he forgot and going back to normal life

Once I desperately had to pee during Scheherazade. It was either sneak out to relieve myself or pee in my pants, so I chose to sneak out to relieve myself (I sat back of the first violins). When I came back, it was during the concertmasters' solo... I knocked over his stand... during his solo... in front of everyone :)
I would have been so embarrassed and sorry omg

I once nodded off on stage while counting over 100 measures of rest. In andante. Conductor was going to give a cue since it's a lot of counting... But the music put me to sleep and I was already tired from earlier. Thankfully, my second chair poked me and whispered "hey, your solo's coming up!!" XD
Like counting sheep
Counting actually makes you really tired, it's not imagining sheep that's sleep inducing, it's repetitive boring counting. It's why people always count when being put to sleep...that's really embarrassing though, you must be able to relax pretty well! :)
ONE HUNDRED MEASURE IN ANDANTE???? OMG. I've inky been okayibg for 3 years lol I'm shocked
OMH A SOLO
We played Give Us This Day by Maslanka my senior year of HS and it was so difficult not to nod off at the end of the first movement 😂

I think I can compete with Eddy. I have:
1) arrived at tour destination before I realized my violin was still at the school
2) gotten 3/4 of the way to rehearsal (45 min drive) before I realized my violin was still at home
3) arrived at rehearsal before I realized I left my bow on the stand at home
4) forgotten my place in a solo set and repeated a song I played 5 minutes earlier
5) forgotten my hanging bag so many times
................well................
Oof... bro. Time to use a checklist strategy if you haven't started yet.
Before I go anywhere or do anything, I run through my checklist. Obviously it's not foolproof, cause sometimes the checklist changes and you forget the new changes, but this has prevented my forgetting big ticket items.
I think I would be the same if I didn't play piano 😂
Hopefully you don’t forget the checklist lol
*piece... Sorry I have to...
This one still haunts me:
For my senior culminating project in high school, I arranged several pieces for our concert band, and acted as the teacher and concert conductor for the pieces. The theme for the concert they were being played in was a tribute to Michael Jackson.
On the night of the concert, we were starting with “We are the World”. The band thought it would be a nice touch to project a slideshow of Michael Jackson images on the stage wall behind the band as we played.
I had told my friend who was running the projector that I would give him a signal when I was done talking to the audience and we were going to start the piece. Unfortunately, being as nervous as I was, I forgot to give him the signal, and turned to the band to prepare them to start playing.
After I had lifted my baton, and the band was at attention, it dawned on me that I forgot to give the signal, and so I turned around to my friend real quick and signaled him to start the slideshow.
Well, the band thought I forgot to say something to the audience and went back into rest position to wait for me to finish. I was already flustered, and when I turned back to the band, rather than making sure they were still ready, I immediately started conducting my upbeat. Let’s just say every instrument that was supposed to come in together for the intro, staggered in about two beats apart from each other in a panic, and were all in different tempos.
After about 2 bars, I had to signal to stop. I apologized to the audience for my mistake and started again. Second time it went fine, but I remember that story any time I conduct.
It sounds like it worked out alright. Plus, you're stil conducting, so, good job!!
My conductor stopped in the middle of a piece once when a senior forgot their solo lol-
The only time that’s happened to me
When Eddy's like "my friend asked me wheres my violin", i'm like EDDY HAS OTHER FRIENDS THAN BRETT???
Theyre not friends theyre married dingus
He has Brett, Ray, Olaf, and Hilary. (And Toni, maybe, probably.)That’s IT. Social life? Who is she?
@@PM-rp4bl Why is Toni a maybe friend? I heard they are a couple or did they split up?
Natacha I didn’t know whether they were still together or not :T
@@PM-rp4bl OH OK but thank you
I was front desk seconds during one competition- I went to turn the page and accidentally knocked the music off the stand and it slid all the way next to the conductor’s stand. He had to bend down while conducting with one hand to give it back to us and that moments haunts me still
ah I can feel the pain...
Once my friend knocked over the music. I never forgave him. He quit violin after that.
We had a concert outdoors today and it was kinda windy, so then the clips I had holding the pages down weren’t strong enough and then all the 15 pages of loose paper just fell to the ground during the middle of a song.. me and my stand partner we’re just panicking together
but this is part of the reason why you memorize your music lol
@@carrotfan True
Horror story: Went to concert with my violin all ready in freezing weather. When I got my violin to tune, bridge just *snapped!* No replacement at the time AND the only violinist..................... Out of commission..............
X.X That's terrifying! How'd you manage after that if you don't mind sharing?
@@kwanzatrotman6337 Well, I literally couldn't play that night and had to take it to my luthier to make sure the sound post didn't shift because of how the bridge snapped and it was horrible weather for any wood instruments. I couldn't play for a few days and was relieved to get it back. I was playing with a band that thought it would be nominal for a violin to join. Had been with them since I was a teen and stayed with them well until my young adult years and they broke up due to changing interests. When this happened, I think I was around 17 years old.
@@kathyomier8221 Wow. Well, lesson terribly learned about the instrument and the weather. I do hope future violinists - indeed all instrumentalists - can avoid this dilemma. Thanks for sharing!

Okay but can we take a moment to appreciate Brett’s voice in 1:47
I really would love to listen to him sing a full song SERIOUSLY, and not just as part of the comedy. I think he has a very nice tone to his voice, which is the important part. Singing technique can be trained.
Aww yeah! thats nice
I kept coming back to that part :")
OMG YES
Brett's singing is sooooo soothing asgfhdkjfedsj I can't stop looping the same part
I once forgot a single note in the piece I was playing during a concert. Since I couldn't remember, my teacher had to tell me the note from the audience.
Apparently I was so mad after that that I played the rest of the piece incredibly passionately. Never managed that same kind of fortissimo since then. XD
I had a similar problem but in a piano recital, so then I went back like three times trying to remember what note it was because I was panicking
LOL the same thing happened to me and I ended up cracking some awkward jokes at the audience when I had to go back trying to remember what the note was cause I didn't know what else to do

::telling story for a friend::
I once was late to an orchestra concert and I didn't know the layout of the concert hall, because I was late, and I straight-up just walked through the audience to the stage, violin in hand and was wearing a different tie from everybody else (everyone was wearing a black bow tie and I was wearing a red regular tie). That was 5 years ago and I still cringe to this day.
I really wonder, if you are late is it important to attend ? because most of you run late but still going .... sorry I am not a musician so I have no idea, I feel bad for asking such question. it sounds offensive.... sorry again :/
Just own it and tell them you are here now and would they mind starting again.
One time I forgot my piano...
Gotta hate when that happens.
tyler joeseph??
h-how....?
I once forgot the plug to the keyboard I was using for practice when the music hall was being renovated.
Yeah I do that every lesson. Have to borrow my teacher's piano
I was playing the drums in primary school but every time I kicked the bass drum it moved forward. About halfway through the song it fell of the stage. I fell backwards taking a snare drum and crash cymbal with me.
Dude. Those drums must be complete crap.
i shouldn't laugh at this as hard as i do, i am sorry xD
i imagine it as pure slapstick xD
i hope you didn't get hurt though...
I drop my sticks on concert
That's why we always put a carpet under the drums at my school. I play the piano/sometimes keyboard, and the pedal for the keyboard also slowly works it way forward. Hate it.
Why did I laugh so hard
I finally got around to watching this. Here’s my embarrassing story: during an orchestra rehearsal in conservatory, the conductor (a notoriously harsh, critical woman who was feared by all) stopped the rehearsal abruptly, pointed straight at me, and yelled, “you’re not doing the right bowing. Get it right!” We start playing again, I apparently played the wrong bowing again, and she stops the orchestra AGAIN and says, “we’re not going on until you play this bowing correctly”. At this point I blacked out from embarrassment, and don’t remember what happened next... I must have finally played the bowing correctly, but I was scarred for life. Thanks, Prof Reischl (yeah I’m calling you out) for giving me major ptsd. Ugh.
I feel the need to add that I’m a violinist (not a violist!)
Oh damn that’s harsh
I had a similar thing happen to me...but with notes 🙁 could have avoided it, had I practised 40 hrs a day
@@dorotheatalento3270 obviously. no one would expect you to get it right if you were a violist.

Hope you ended up somewhere better and that she's has no friends around in her life that have to be subjected to her. Sounds like she clearly isn't fit to be around human beings. People like that need to go to therapy and get help for anger issues before they're in charge of anything.

Ik it’s long but read until the end, it’s good.
Story time- this was my first year
playing violin and I was still In the beginners orchestra at my school. Very early in the school year when we were still learning to read treble clef, I broke my violin. I was practicing one night and set it down on my bed to use the bathroom. When I came back I wasn’t paying attention to what I was doing and sat down on my bed. All I heard was a crunch and the E string snap. I got up and saw that THE WHOLE NECK HAD BROKEN OFF. The only thing keeping it from falling was the stings. The next day I showed up to school and I told my orchestra director what happened and she just laughed it off and said I could borrow a school violin until mine got fixed. I tried my best to keep this on the down low, and did a pretty good job! Then, at the very end of the year, our last concert came. Many orchestras were playing that night, and there was an intermission right before my orchestra was going to play. So we went to put or instruments on stage, where they would stay through out the intermission. The director told us to put or violins on our chairs. Then she said “now make sure when you come back, you don’t do what, Skye? (I’m Skye)
Me- “sit on your violin?”
Her- “yes, because what happens when you sit on your violin?”
Me- “it’ll will break in half😞”
For the next 3 years I was known as Snapper Booty.
Edit: also the whole audience was still in the auditorium dead silent, so there were a good 200 people who knew about it
I remember in a rehearsal break with my school orchestra somebody accidentally sat on another one's violin, and the fingerboard went out...luckily it wasn't me...

Pretty much anyone can actually have nice voices. That's what I'd recommend to anyone who wants to change their sound, even if it's just for speaking. That's right up the alley of a vocal coach.
It's not something that I do professionally, just mainly for me and my friends, but there are some really good ones on UA-cam, and you can learn a lot about changing how you sound (like being less nasally is something a person might want to accomplish).

Devin Sussex Graves the Voicesmith wait... what are you talking about? I think you missed the sentence that explains exactly what you’re recommending to people....
August 2019: I forgot my violin at home thinking it was in the trunk of my car. I was on my way to the New York Youth Chamber Competition and I found out I was missing my violin 2 minutes before we got there.

So I’m a flautist and during a concert, the music on my stand partner’s side began to fall forward very slowly through the beginning of the piece. Let’s just say her attempts to make it stay up while playing were futile and when she tried to pick it up on the middle of the concert, she knocked over the stand and in turn knocked over the stand next to ours.

I remember my very first piano recital in middle school. I got to the auditorium dressed up in my black and white dress ready to play. My teacher finishes the introduction to the recital and starts calling people up to play. Immediately I find out that I’m the VERY first person up. 😥 I was thinking, “Well, this is a surprise. No big deal. I practiced.” I get up on stage and it’s dead quiet. So I begin my piece, but maybe 2 bars into the piece...I flat out stop because I forgot my piece in that instant. It took me maybe 10-20 seconds to actually remember my piece. I finished the piece and got off stage. Everyone still said I did very well. 😂 That recital still haunts me to this day (it’s been 11 years).
To be serious for a moment, this video was really helpful for someone who's just started out playing with an orchestra. At least I know everyone makes mistakes and everyone feels embarrassed at some point ... NOT JUST ME.
But also...this video reminded me that I have a (1st flute) solo in the new orchestra piece I just got, and I'm hearing all these stories about mistakes, and they've psyched me out so bad now
@@amyfalconer3217 How did it go?
@@CallMeTactu it went really well :) the concert was actually just a few days ago. The solo was absolutely crazy, and I'd never been able to get it completely right in rehearsal, but I somehow did better in the concert - and I'm a person who gets intense stage fright. The piece was almost too advanced for a high school orchestra, so I'm happy we survived :)

K Lu hi I know I’m six months late but I am notorious for having things go miserably wrong for me during concerts. I have had my music blow shut during the most difficult part of my SOLO. My favorite is one time I dropped my bow on stage while everyone was playing pizzicato so it echoed. It also bounced away from me so I had to get out of my seat to get it. It wouldn’t have been quite so bad if I weren’t first violin first chair so I was centerstage and all eyes were on me. The entire audience gasped and everyone still reminds me of it three years later. Trust me, you’ll make plenty of awful mistakes but all of us have😂

Me: “Oh I forgot about that”

Lol same!
That moment when you open your mouth before you take in a deep breath to calm your sh*t, 😂🤣🤣 Omg, so relatable.
Back then I could imagine myself doing that cause of how late my parents dropped me off for any performance or rehearsal. I sang and played clarinet back then. Sooo for people who think this doesn't make sense, remember that there are actually many vocalists that play instruments too!
I haven't touched an instrument in ages, but thanks to TwoSet, it's only a matter of time before I pick up something again, whether it's the clarinet, violin, or something exotic or unusual like harp or guzheng, mainly cause those instruments have a ton of strings, and they're also very eye catching without even touching them!
"And on the repeat, I DID IT AGAIN!"

oof big embarrassing story:
i know most people here are in orchestra. I was in orchestra as well (cello), but I was also in band. My most embarrassing story happened to be during marching band, it's bad, like so bad, so strap in for a ride.
As a backstory, I play the saxophone and I was one of the top saxophonists in the band, however due to an issue the school was having, I had to march that season with a trashy instrument that tended to literally fall apart while marching (since i play one of the uncommon saxophones, the school lends one to us so we don't have to buy it ourselves). Marching band is all about how clean and straight the shapes the band makes on field, anyone who is outside or makes the shape blurry is deducted points.
Story time: my band was in a NATIONAL competition (Bands of America), we were marching and everything is going great. Until we get to the most intense and iconic part of the show. I'm marching, when suddenly the top part my instrument falls onto the floor as I was running into the new shape (called a set). We're in a hold, in which you are not supposed to move, at all, ever, no matter what, but the top half of my instrument is on the floor, yards away from where i was standing. since my instrument is owned by the school, i couldn't just leave it on the floor to get destroyed and potentially be a danger to other marchers to trip on, so i go and pick it up and quickly reattach it. EVERY ONE STARED AT ME. If i had left it on the floor, we would have had more points deducted compared to the action i took. You can see in the video that was streamed nationally, a tiny person move very far away during what clearly is supposed to be a holding triangle shape. to make it worse, my fellow band members did not understand what i did and the entire band made fun of me until i explained what happened. also as i made my way back into the spot i had to be in, the band started to move again and someone ran into me and busted my lip open. now i was playing on with a broken instrument, with a badly bleeding lip, on national streaming, with the band mad at me.
the good news is that we still passed to finals.
but ive never seen so many people stare at me in disgust for something that was not entirely my fault and it was soo embarrassing
I am so sorry that had to happen to you....
@@stellarxnova6660 haha it's okay, now i have trauma and a funny story to tell
Omg that’s crazy. I also march BOA
That sounds painful... I'm glad you recovered though! You definitely dealt with it a lot better than I would have -- I would have just frozen in panic :'D
@@theresawood8378 im still panicking about it and it was in 2016 ha ;;
Me : Oh ! No ! I left my instrument at home !
My Teacher : You play the piano...
That’s so mee haha
To make you feel less embarrassed, I forget my piano at home every time.
If you can embarrass yourself slowly, you can embarrass yourself quickly.
Certain someone: "Oh he remembers."
Three dislikes were the Quartet members..
Brett: "...and everyone is looking at you!"

Srsly like 90% of the public doesn't notice the mistakes in an orchestra ^^
The conductor notices. I made an identical mistake as Brett - forgot about a repeat in Mozart - and the conductor killed me with his gaze. He literally killed me. I had to be resurrected.

One time I forgot my violin and had to SIT through a WHOLE CONCERT with nothing to do
You were downgraded to an audience member.
Aqua Lilyann I was also in the front... R.I.P. my self esteem
@@5uru594 The same thing happened to me!!! I lost my mouthpiece and had to sit right at the front with my trombone and just watch. I died.
I was in a piano recital and two of my friends were playing in it as well. As my first friend went up to play, they left their music behind on purpose because they had it memorized. But not knowing that fact, my second friend got up, while friend 1 was in the middle of a piece, and tried to put the music on the bench next to them. Fortunately, friend 1 kept going. But friend 2 was confused so they tried to put the music on the piano and open it to the right page. Friend 1 actually stopped playing one hand to shoo friend 2 away. My teacher didn’t know what to do, and neither did I since neither of us could stop friend 2. It was pretty funny, even though it didn’t happen to me. My poor friends tho we’re both really embarrassed.
I also played a whole recital on a keyboard that had a nonfunctioning pedal. My teacher told me to just keep going when I found her in the audience. They changed the pedal after I was done playing. That was enjoyable.
When we played 1812 at state festival, the last page fell off my music stand so I had to play it from memory. (I played upright bass that time so I didn’t have a stand partner to look off of). Thankfully I didn’t mess up.
At my most recent piano recital, my dress got caught under the bench. It was fine while I was playing, but after I stood up to bow, I realized it was caught and had to turn around to lift up the extremely heavy (for some reason) bench and I could hardly lift it. The audience was confused and thought I was bowing again, and they weren’t sure whether or not to keep clapping.
At the same recital, I played a duet with someone but they didn’t set up two benches. After bowing, my duet partner did the same thing as Brett, smiled politely, held up a finger, and walked off stage. She couldn’t find an extra bench so in the end, she brought out a green chair.
In my school orchestra concert, they decided to have me play piano as filler between a set change the day before. Because I wasn’t in the program, the light crew thought I was a recording and I started playing in the dark, thinking they would spot me. They didn’t. I made it halfway though the piece before my hands lost their place because I was essentially playing blindfolded, and I had to yell up to the booth to have them turn on the lights. The whole audience bust out laughing and then began to applaud me, but I was so flustered I could hardly continue from where I left off, but I did finish the piece.
There are plenty more. But I think my pride as a musician has already been wounded enough for the entertainment of the comments section.
speaking of ballets... i'm an ex dancer. and in a mid-season showcase like recital, (my first year on the school's competitive team actually) i had a few numbers, in a long show. so i finish one. go back stage, start changing. the change room's empty, the speaker playing live audio from the stage... and i had some time. and me, i've always lived by the philosophy "If you have time, use it". had suspenders, had a tie, had to safety pin said suspenders/tie, had to throw on tap shoes... and suddenly i hear my next number on the speakers. my panicked mind said, *whelp. guess i'm not going on for this number*. rather than get my shit together and sprint on mid number. my brain worked out that that'd have the least impact on the audience's viewing experience...
which if i was a normal core dancer, that would probably only really have been a big problem for me, when next i saw my teacher. EXCEPT for the fact that i'm a dude, in a school where dudes are a rare commodity, and so i had partner work, and a partner on stage with no dude to lift her.... my teacher let me off lightly for that. walked in the next week, teach puts on the tape, starts talking to the group about things that could've been better, he looks at me, and goes "i don't even want to know."

Periodic Table symbols used for the word "Practice"
Me as a Chemist Student: 👏👏👏
One time I was in the choir and we were singing Router's "All Things Bright and Beautiful". The thing about that song is that the 1st voice (basically the sopranos but it was a kid's choir) come in first and then the 2nd voice repeats and then they all sing together. The embarrassing part is that I was basically the pillar of the 2nd voice and I had forgotten that my voice's non-unissono part existed, so I just came in at full volume with the wrong text for HALF A PAGE and then, noticing the 1sr voice wasn't singing and decided to shut the heck up abruptly.
Also, a few years later, I was in Handel's "Messiah" and there's a movement called "O Thou that Tellest Good Tiding to Zion" which has this weird thing where the sopranos do a little thingy with the word "arise" and then the word "behold". The tricky part is that they do "arise" two times, then "behold" one time (followed by the phrase "the glory of the lord is risen upon thee") and then "behold" again but two times. Guess who was the idiot soprano who did a second "behold" on top of "the glory of the lord is risen upon thee" at full volume?
In high school choir we sang Vivdil’s Gloria. I believe it was after we finished singing Domini Fili Unigentite the choir director said he didn’t like the way we sang it so he was going to have us sing it again.
In university chorus we sang the Huron Carol as part of our Christmas concert. We sang the beginning together and for “before their light the start grew dim and wandering hunters heard the hymn” the tenors, basses and baritones sang that while the first/second sopranos and altos vocalized. I started to sing it and a fellow first soprano had to nudge me and say “We don’t sing that part!”
I feel you on that movement in the Messiah.
I've done the exact same thing. 🤝😭
Also....I totally didn't jump into the air (full on jump, not kidding) in the Amen chorus when there's the really quiet violin line and then everyone (including timpani) comes in tutti.
That.
Was terrifying.

So there was this year ABRSM exam (forgot which grade which year I play the piano) and then the examiner asked for an A major scale both hands.

I remember I was a soloist. I nailed it in rehearsals, the conductor was so proud of me he was taken aback at how good I was. When it came time to perform, the damn conductor sped up my solo part by like 15 bpm! (It was supposed to be a very slow piece.) I was so shocked at how fast the tempo was, that I had to recalculate the math in my head, that I came in a whole beat late which by the end of my solo, I was a whole bar behind. Oh my god I was so embarrassed and he HATED me ever since. What’s worse, NOBODY in the audience thought I messed up and they all were amazed at what they heard. They absolutely LOVED it! They were moved and felt that everything was played perfectly and went well with the music. And I agreed it sounded better with me behind lmao. Even my band mates thought it sounded even better than rehearsal. I’m like how!?
But I knew, the conductor knew and he was so mad everyone loved the performance like this. Before he left, he told me, make sure you look up. His face was red and he drove off. So embarrassing 🤣

What's the piece called again
Mozart symphony no.40 mvt. 1
:)
When I played in my first piano competition, I was really nervous. I sat down at the piano, and started to play my piece fairly well, with few mistakes. But then, it got to the second part of the recapitulation, and I panicked and forgot the part.
I ended up skipping that part and played the rest of the movement and the one after that shaking.
Also, I somehow got a bronze medal when I skipped like four measures.
Okay I actually didn't think I had any stories but I DO---
I was playing at a student recital once, and I was playing La Folia by A. Corelli, which isn't the easiest piece (if you don't know it, look it up--the time sigs are constantly switching, it's a hassle to play). And I had a piano accompaniment playing with me. And so I'm tuning and all when suddenly the pianist comes over and goes "I don't have your sheet music with me." I started like FREAKING OUT and I'm searching in my music bag for spare sheet music. Apparently the heavens were in my favor, because I had recently had an audition and still had that sheet music with me. (Yes, the music for piano even though I play violin. Don't ask why--I don't know.) so I gave them what I *thought* was the piano accompaniment and sat down, breathing a sigh of relief.
Cut to near the end of the performance, it's my turn. I go up, start playing. I get to the third-to-last section with the double stops (the fast one, dadedadedadedodedodedode) and I'm playing--and the pianist. Stops.
And I'm PANICKING. I'm playing and my tempo is going all over the place and I'm just sending frantic glances towards them out of the corner of my eye and my teacher is making hand motions like "just keep going!"
So, still freaking out, I did. I finished the piece, everyone applauded really loudly, and I went back to my seat with what I am positive was a BRIGHT RED face.
After the recital my teacher comes up to me and is like "do you know what happened?"
Apparently, it WASNT THE FULL PIANO SHEET MUSIC. It was only like two pages. So for a half page this pianist improv-Ed before just giving up and sitting back.
Thank goodness it was on the double stop part, so at least it sounded alright.
And yet, when you watch a playback of me doing it, you'd never know anything was wrong. (Which utterly astounds me, because I was fReAkInG oUt, MaN)
So yeah, that's MY embarrassing violin story...
EDIT: Oh my god why is this one of the upper comments help my embarrassment-
But I hope this helped you guys feel less bad about whatever happened to you! ^^'
I was 11 when I learned that song lmao
tbh i think that was kinda the pianists fault not urs they should have brought their own sheet music
sheet music is so annoying when u lose it
Why didn't he keep playing the chord progression? I mean, it's a folia, just keep playing the same few chords you have been playing the past minutes.

I was playing on the piano for a school talent show. I had a key solo part first. I was SO NERVOUS my left hand failed me, so I played my solo with my right hand (melody) only. I've never had a more tragic moment in my life, because my friends were supposed to come in at a certain chord on my left hand. Bless them for memorizing the counts. 😂😂😢😢
I was first violin, and I did the famous "there is a rest but of course you play a chord super loud"

I played flute in my school band, and to this day I'm still not sure why or how this happened...
We were holding a concert at a church and everything was going well, I was nervous as hell, as this was my first performancesince getting first chair. The churches stage was this hard concrete shelled block of a thing. At first, everything went great. We were sounding pretty awesome. Then it happened.
About halfway through the second piece, and the foot joint fell off my flute and clanged to the ground and bounced. Loudly. My entire section stuttered and trailed off into silence. The director stopped mid performance in shock. I had to scramble under three different seats to find it. When I finally found it (by this point the whole band had stopped) I slammed it back on my instrument and we continued.
Side note; there were no strings in my band, so my section was front, stage right. Meaning my chair, and me, were the very front of the band.... I wanted to sink into the ground and die.
Anywho.... That's my most embarrassing story from my band days.

Alright, I have many stories but I'll say three - some from being a student and some as a teacher. Read for your amusement! :)
1) I was really sick for one of our competition festivals. We were in the second piece out of three, when I felt like I needed to throw up. I played my bell part in the beginning and then crawled on stage to go off stage during a long rest period. I threw up in a trash can (I felt so much better after that), then I proceed to crawl back. Looking back, idk why I even crawled lmao. But I came back on time, and played the important port crash right at the end.
2) The entire cello section forgot their music for a concert for a bunch of elementary and middle school kids. I still don't know how we all forgot our music. This was also the same concert when the percussion section forgot their music too (I was in both sections lol). Luckily, two people had music in their cases, so we all just shared it.
3) As a music teacher, during practice I had a student who clearly was not about practicing whatsoever. During one of our rehearsals, they decided to eat Hot Cheetos - and touch EVERYTHING. I was so upset that I yelled at them and told them to go to the bathroom and wash their hands. I went to help other students, and when I came back, this student was eating a ROTISSERIE CHICKEN. Apparently, his mom dropped off food because he was hungry. He ended up quitting music and I never saw him again.
Things to note: don't forget your music, have a trash can near you if you're sick, and no cheeto fingers.
First time I hear about two sections all forgetting their sheets..
Woow
My high school band went to NCMEA, a very prominent music educators convention. Teachers and players from all around the state were there. We were rehearsing on stage when we discover that the entire bass clarinet section didn’t bring their music, (which is now 4 hours away.) I don’t remember how the resolved it but the director was not happy to say the least.
Once I was playing in orchestra for some play (I play the clarinet), and there were around 200 people there, which isn't too many I suppose, but I remember the flautist next to me knocked into my clarinet, which made me suddenly squeak, during the *romantic* scene. I remember that the theatre was just suddenly filled with pure silence, because the rest of the orchestra had unintentionally stopped to look to see who it was. And half the people *didn't know it was me* but my face turned SO red and then I SNEEZED, almost dropping my clarinet in the process. This time the actors also turned to stare at me and I could hear people in the audience laughing. Used to be the most embarrassing day of my life. LOL.
That sounds horrible
@@emilia1911 Haha it was. Oh well let's hope that they all forgot about it :)
I once had a blackout in a competition while playing the piano. As always I wanted to play without the score open. I started with Bach and messed up in one spot, so I couldn't move on anymore. I thought:"Well, I'll just start over", tried again and messed up at the same spot!!. I tried once again, again and again and all the time I messed it up, because I forgot the score completely!!At that moment I couldn't continue, my father was looking angry, my teacher was shocked and all of the sudden the jury started to whisper and the whole audience were shocked and me sitting on the piano and completely embarassed that I immediately started to cry. (To my justice, I was 12 in that one)
Since that moment, I really have an ancienty problem to play for an audience or during competitions, my heart is pounding like hell, because bad memories comes up so quick that I have to erase them or fully concentrate while playing.
I have been there.. my teacher said 1st mistake was choosing JSB. the second not having it perfect. 3rd stopping and trying to repeat 4th failing at each attempt...
I feel your pain
