It's not easy to do that without it jamming! I learned to type in high school on that kind of typewriter. I lived through the excitement of my first electric typewriter, to the IBM selectric (a wonderful machine with the little ball that bounced around), carbon copies, the mimeograph, ditto machine, the thermofax, Xerox copier, IBM Memory typewriter, and the first word processors --with screens!, and then the fantastic tech revolution which exploded into what we now have. It has been a great trip!
I wish it had shown a close-up of the front of the typewriter, because it's very similar to mine - a Royal portable my mother got as a high school graduation present. In 1934. (And yes, of course mine still works...) Also, the Selectrics were wonderful machines. The only memory typewriter I've used (two lines stored in it, I think) was an Olivetti that I hated - I typed faster than it would go. Their techs insisted that wasn't possible, so we got the salesdroid in, and I started typing, and yes, it stalled out. I got my Selectric back for another couple of years... Mimeographs and the smell of that ink...
No matter which version of this I see, this song never gets old. And if you haven’t seen the Jerry Lewis clip, please do yourself a favor and check it out.
That has got to be the coolest thing I've seen in a long time! There is something romantic about the classic typewriter and its characteristic sound, as I'm sure Leroy Anderson agrees.
I like to imagine he's writer a very strongly worded letter to his conductor about why he should be allowed to bring his typewriter to every single practice.
When I was in 10th grade (1968-69) taking "typewriting" (yes, that's what they called it back in the OLD days), my teacher had us take "speed typing" tests while playing this Leroy Anderson composition!
Wow! Back in those days, typewriting was strictly a 'no man's land' where I grew up. Typing and shorthand was taught only to girls in order to enter the commercial world as stenographers and secretaries.
I've been looking FOREVER for the piece Dr. Demento played, which featured a guy with an accordion which he used to make air bomber sounds. It was brilliant! "The dull drone of the B1 bomber as it climbs..." The pilot drops two bombs: Zzzzzzzip! zzzzzzip! "The German fighter spins into the death spiral ZZZZZZZZ!!!! Down!!!! Bzzzzzz! DOWN!!!!! BZZZZZZ! You have to hear it to appreciate it. It's probably the most original thing I have ever heard.
AltoonaYourPiano Leroy Anderson used a lot of wacky "instruments" in his works, "The Typewriter" being one of them. Another one worth while is his "Syncopated Clock".
Handel or Haydn? wrote a piece for toy instruments Yusef Latif played an ait balloon. Ishkabibble gargelled, Spike Jones and PDQ Bach have their screwball orchestrations. The Danish Nat'l orchestra plays movie themes with the great Tuva whistling and waa waa, boards clapping, cap guns, ocharinas --but very seriously moving performances
Leroy Anderson was brilliant; and this version is spot on, many can't keep the pace. For an excellant copy try Erich Kunzel and The Cincinnati Pops, it was used on an episode of Warehouse 13, "Where or When"
I do not speak English, so I translate with a dictionary. Sorry if I misspelled my comment. Human talent knows no bounds. This is an excellent musician "typewriter" when interpreting a classic with an instrument that did not exist at the time the work was created. I have seen playing music from your finger along the edge of several glasses of water, blowing through hollowed-out vegetables, tones for cell phones, etc., but this is new to me. I really liked and made me smile. Greetings.
I don’t know what it is about this song, but it instantly calms a crying baby! I’m listening to it in the car right now to settle my 6 month old 😆 My first daughter was a very fussy baby, but this worked like a charm hahah
Best performance of this I've seen yet anywhere on UA-cam! Played at correct fast tempo too. Excellent stuff. Wow just seen you are here with us, Martin. I would also like to offer my hearty congratulations on a great performance - the orchestra was great too btw. :)
i just watched this in music class a couple days ago and i couldnt stand it until i got home that day so i could look it up and hear it again. it is a really original song because it has a typewriter in it. i bet no one else thought of having this kind of writing apparatus in an orchestra song. this song blew my socks right of my feet.
Super !!!!!!! After several years of work, I reached to understand that there is a totaly new meaning for the act of typewriting !!!!!!! Bravo Mastro !!!!!!!
I love Leroy Anderson! This guy was a genius! Hahaha I just wish someone would post a video of the choir version of buglers holiday. Were doing it in my chorus class at school and I love it :) it's going to be difficult to learn though.
Tears in my eyes ... from laughter and nostalgia. Leroy Anderson! A great name when I was a boy in the US - a long time ago. Anyhow, I was just talking to a young lady about the "days of typewriters" when suddenly there was that name "Leroy Anderson" - and the tune, of course - in my head. And thanks to UA-cam, within minutes I could rediscover it and enjoy it (totally!) once again, after all these years. Nach all den Jahren. So ein Genuss. Tausend Dank! Gruss aus England.
Absolutely wonderful, I can't stop listening to it, I listen to it over and over and over again! The very first time that I heard part of this song or whatever you want to call it LOL was on a movie I watched by the name of Mary and Max. I can't seem to get enough of this movie either. Anyway keep up the good work. I just enjoy anything instrumental or orchestral or etc. Thank you for sharing your gift with the rest of us. Stay safe and may God bless you. Mary Ann in Redding, CA
The ding the bell makes only happens when the carriage is about seven spaces or so from the right margin. He makes more dings than are available. Oh, I see now he has a bell on the side of the typewriter he hits with his right hand.
Whoever came up with this is an absolute legend and deserves an award.
it was Leroy Anderson
Tek kelimeyle muhteşem..👏👏👏👏
When you have an essay due in 6 hours but orchestra has an early morning rehearsal.
Favorite one so far
i love you
i logged on to youtube just to like this comment

DarkRaiders Gaming | underrated wholesome comment. Well done.
When I was in grammar school in the 70’s, they would play this over the speaker in the classroom after lunch recess. Loved it!
I love to see accountants getting into the music industry.
Am I the only one who wants to see the result?
Sadly, the typewriter used in this type of performance is modified so that only two keys work.
First thing I though. LOL
I would love to see the result of the typing also.
No😂
MetFanMac 2 keys work. Hope it isn’t sksksksksk
I always must give credit to the artists who can hear the music in everyday life and bring it to the stage.
Jeffrey this was done by Jerry Lewis
He was merely performing Anderson
Anderson heard it in the third movement of the Organ Concerto in E-Flat major by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
@@j.s.54
It’s a composition from Leroy Anderson, written on 1950, released on 1953.

This reminds me of mickey and donald eating corn in the mickey´s trailer short from 1938 :)
that's what I thought
WE LOVED THAT 8mm FILM AS KIDS!!
old enough to know good Mickey shorts!
Yass omg hahahahha
I rember that episode
I like this *_TYPE_* of music!

get out of the stage NOW
+Jerrywinkle Fedor Yes, it does make a good first impression.
+Jerrywinkle Fedor Man tear has been shed.
Lol good one
Who could dislike this? This is a classic!
How is it over 150 people don't like this? People born without a soul or sense of humor I guess. This is super fun!
Now, most soloists only use two keys of the typewriter. A true skill would be to actually write something meaningful when doing this :)
All of Hamlet.
Oh my god yes
Very underrated
Imagine a former vsco girl taking this position and writing sksksksksksksksk with it
my thought exactly!
One of the most funniest piece of music I´ve ever seen and heard ! Sincerely GdN
I'd like to see more classical compositions with oddball instruments. Has anybody composed anything for electric canopener?
I've been looking FOREVER for the piece Dr. Demento played, which featured a guy with an accordion which he used to make air bomber sounds. It was brilliant!

Pure genius magic with the classic typewriter piece! 😀

Who needs a percussion section when you have a typewriter?

love how he's having a blast doing it too 😂
When, in a rare occasion, idea flowed out of your brain while doin an essay.
Wunderbar!!! Very good comical & creative groove act! Bravo!
Awesome. Later on, he sent the carbon copy to the Underwood Typewriter Company, in New York.

No set the playback speed to 2x and that’s a Twitter tornado
Nah. Sounds way too nice to be a Twitter storm.
Exactly .I'm impressed that you recognized it. Best regards from Olde Vienna Martin Breinschmid
