Actually, this did not start as an attempt to imitate anything. It started by me singing and playing at the same time, then altering the vowel to change the sound. Simply playing around. By the time I discovered this I had never tried a didgeridoo and not heard of circular breathing. The tune itself does not need this, it has natural phrase lengths to allow breathing. Later on, after learning to play the didge, I understood the similarities.
Øystein Baadsvik I’m a tuba player from south Louisiana over in America I love your work and would be ecstatic if you decide to do something with Nicholls State University
I had the pleasure of playing with this guy once... IT WAS AWSOME :D!! the atmosphere to be in the same room as him and about 150 brass musicians was really awsome! Because i play tuba I sat in the front section.. and it was right in front of him as he was conducting us through the different pices of music we played. When we vent from the place everyone was like "Holy shit that was incredible :D!". // A swedish tuba player with a 8y experience that knows this is good ^_^!
Øystein Baadsvi is the best ranked tuba player in world now, and with this video he shows that. I have been on 4 live concerts with him, and I have had lessons with him twice, he is just fantastic! He showed me some fabolous tecnics with his tuba, very helpfully. I have also played with him in Olavs Hallen, Trondheim, Norway. There he showd us some incredible sounds, like helicopeter, elephants and some other stuff. -yeah!
Devin Pohl oh ehm.... i dont know if its really up with how high anyone can play... the tone and tune is whats up. i can play till the super E. but in controll i can play to the C3 i think.
Devin Pohl i uploaded some songs with playing trumpet... check out my playing :) i got a jupiter 606mr its a middle high instrument, but there the tone is exelent :) so im not really a high tone player^^ check it out
I play tuba in my schools marching band myself (freshman section leader!). This man has really inspired me. I hope that one day, I can even manage to play Fnugg. For a long time, I knew that what I wanted to do for the rest of my life was play music, esspecially tuba. Tuba is like my only real means of expression. And this performance is awe inspireing. This man really is a genious.
This is probably one of the best tuba perfomances on You Tube. I used to try to hum many years ago while playing the tuba. I never suspected it would come off so well in a performance, nor was I that good. The percussion sounds with your tongue makes a very good jazzy sound. Plus your little dance makes for an entertaining stage show. I realy loved the performance!
When I was in marching band as a tuba player in 2008 I came across this video and I remember practicing and practicing and eventually got competent at singing and playing. Need to get me a tuba again and get back at it.
Heard this for the first time yesterday in London played by a student from the Royal Academy of Music as part of a Musical Interlude during the Graduation Ceremony, it was amazing and so unexpected. Now I can hear and watch the master, I don't really know what to say, I'm at a loss for words !!!
As for all of the questions about how to do and how multiphonics work. In brass instruments, the most common method of producing multiphonics is by simultaneously playing the instrument and singing into it. When the sung note is part of the overtone series of the played note, a third note that is the sum of the frequencies of the sung note and the played note is produced; a difference between them is also produced, leading to the popular term trumpet/trombone/horn growl.
Well, i can agree to this. i was also there aswell in the RSAMD. Double bass tuba. It was a sunday many years ago and it ran shivers down my spine. Had the whole place in an aura, and was amazing to listen to. Such a nice guy , wouldnt think he was a bass player as most of us are all huge ha
Unglaublich was er mit der Tuba hinbekommt. Vor allem ist das ein richtiger Ohrwurm, wenn er richtig loslegt. Echt mal was anderes, und vor allem Klasse!
i played the tuba six years in school and loved it.i went to state playing tuba.i well never forget playing my tuba.i wish i had one but i can't aford one,i am a single dad with 5 kids with no mother.tuba will keep you out of trouble.
I've had a concert with him years ago and i was truly amazed - I gave up BB-Bass and recently started after 8 years break and this is a truly magnificent piece of music... The song itself isn't hard but trying to get the voice and playing the correct notes is the hardest part - Rock On Dude
When I was in high school and total band geek, I had this in the background of my group project for Lord of the Flies HAHAHAHA. In hindsight I'm sure my group had mixed feelings but my teacher loved it and gave us a better grade because of the editing hahaha. I still play my Euphonium with a local concert band.
I am Brazilian, and I enjoyed more, I also play tuba, but you've become a myth, classical music, and tuba solos in all, I have no words to express the admiration in all his videos, I hope you understand, the I'm writing. your fan ... Demer sao paulo "applause."
AMAZING. When I first heard the opening, before Mr. Baadsvik was on camera, I said, "Nice euphonium solo." I've never heard someone who can play with such consistency in that range. The rest of the piece is awesome, too. Mr. Baadsvik, your work is out of this world. Thanks for posting it for our enjoyment.
I am a trombone player I've been able to do the humming while playing thing whatever it's called but not in a very melodic manner lol. It is a very weird sensation!
Been practicing this to play in a university band competition, and although I've never seen the music it's almost up to his standard :D he is so amazing!
I got to see Oystein live with a pianist in Northfield Minnesota a few years ago. It was an entertaining concert and I left wanting more. It was fantastic. If you ever get the chance I urge you to see him live. Miraphone - who makes some of the best tubas available - made the Norwegian Star series of EE flat Tubas in collaboration with Oystein. I cant think of a higher recognition in the field of tuba playing than that.
I love the fact that he can play so well, and have fun doing it. My band director got mad when i tried to dance at a b-ball game(i got the trombones started). Excellent work, you are my tuba hero 5/5
this guy is awesome. he did a master class at my college one time. it was mandatory for all tuba students to attend. lol. so i got to meet him and laugh as he serenaded the only female player in the studio.
He's awesome! I've had the opportunity of playing this piece with him at the RSAMD(scotland). He made a guest appearance with my brass band. It was incredible to see it in person and play along with such a great talent.
This is truly amazing, now I know everone says that, but I had never heard these styles put together like that before I saw this video. Love the multi-phonics.
c'ero anche io in orchestra l'altra il 22 sera al teatro rendano a cosenza! ha fatto un concertone, ha davvero impressionato tutti...davvero MOSTRUOSO!!! Thank you M°
Tell Dakota "here is something to shoot for" because awesomeness only comes once in a lifetime!. I'm proud to know that he can think big like this.....Keep it up boy!
Heard this in for the first time London this week, at the Royal Academy of Music Graduation Ceremony played by a young student, Sasha Koushk-Jalali he was stunning. I had no idea you could make a tuba sound like that. LOL
@phantomverse Actually I play the clarinet, and I didn't like the tuba, until this March (maybe because the tuba players around me are... ehm, nevermind), when I participated in an international music competition, where Baadsvik was a jury member. After the competition there was a jury's concert, and he played this piece (in solo version) on it. It was my best ever concert experience, it was fantastic to hear him live. Since then I like and respect the tuba. Thanks for sharing this awesome vid!
I am a Tuber player. Eb Tuba. And MY biggest life goal. Is to play this with a brass band. No. HE is not my biggest idol. But the play is my biggest life goal. (at age of 18 now, and already going foward with multitoning)
hi, so i play tuba in Sugar Land Texas..this is so awesome!!! i really want to get good enough to play this.. i've only seen it performed live once, at UH band camp in Houston. it's great!
here's Dick Griffen on multiphonics:"To begin playing multiphonics, play a low Bb and hold it for four counts. Then play the low Bb for another four counts and on the second count try to sing through the horn. Just try to make any audible sound while the note is going--get the note first and then let your voice seep through. Once your voice seeps through, you'll start to hear some clarity in the chords. Stay on the Bb for a good period of time and then learn to move up or down from there.
@therealhannoverfisk this is oystein baadsvik. he is from norway i believe. he is incorporating some amazing normal tuba playing with some amazing multiphonics and lip beats.
Ive been doing Polyphonics on my Euphonium for along time now. When I was at the Navel School of music, I played Blue Lake Fantasies by David G. Awesome piece. I also played the Mario Bros theme and harmony on euphonium. It was a blast. Just become a good singer and you can do Poly just the same as anyone else.

It really sounds like a Mongolian song to me.
Is this possible to play on euphonium?

If You can whistle, you can practice doing multi phonics in this manner. it is always easier to create the chords than producing a true melody line.
Chris Ross do you whistle in or out when practicing??
Jake Patterson
I have done both, but is easier blowing out due to air escaping over the vocal chords.
Chris Ross ok thank you
Chris Ross also, should it sound somewhat like a butterfly tounging

What a wonderful musician!

+Brogan Kogler part of the reason it sounds so good on tuba is it is a very large resonating chamber

he is just way too awesome. his legacy will always continue..
i love when low instruments do solos! as a bassist i have a respect for all "bass cleft" instruments
This is a really cool piece of music. I love the originality of it - people don't know what hit 'em!

And the other half of the time he sounds like a multi phonics god
