There's something to be said regarding technique in 'playing' the typewriter without jamming it. I practiced about 60 yrs ago. One needs long strong fingers, which I don't have. Was happy when keyboards were developed.😎
I heard this played outdoors while on a lunch break by the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. The musician who played the typewriter was from the percussion section of the orchestra and usually played the kettledrums.
Yeah skilled percussionist. His rhythm was absolutely perfect and controlled on the fast bits. I have seen a London orchestra do this and apparently it was the glockenspiel/xylophone player who did this. But hard to say what these guys actually play, because they are usually skilled at a ton of different instruments. And usually very skilled at not playing but coming in just on time (counting rests). That can be even more difficult!
Write! I get so keyed up when I hear it. I tend to shift in my seat, but drinking a Tab usually helps. There is no margin for error in this piece. A gifted performer deserves a ribbon.
I was a typist and was so impressed with this when training and we trained to music. When we could get up to the " William Tell Overture " our tutor would say that we were ready to be typists. That is if we had copied the words correctly we were on our way to being copy typists.
Do you always alternate fingers, or do you sometimes repeat them in certain "rudiments"? For example, would you play "fjf-jfj-fjf-j-f" for the first phrase or "fjf-fjf-fjf-j-f"? I actually tried typing along on my laptop NGL :)
I am an audio transcriber and well conscious of how not-very-fast a typist I am. Get to the end of the page, on an old manual typewriter, without one mistake, very quickly: I doubt it. Here's to you! 🤗
Actually. You could get typewriter sounds, program them into music software, and play them on a keyboard connected to the laptop. BOOM. Problem solved.
Leroy Anderson was a very creative composer.: Sleigh ride, Syncopated clock, The waltzing cat, The typewriter, etc. His compositions were delightful, and usually about simple things. I love his music. mm
He very much influenced me. I compose instrumentals for pop guitar, and because of him I have composed, "Red-Headed Woodpecker" which is accompanied by woodblock as a supporting instrument, also "Ratonera"(Mousetrap), a tune inspired by the Fireballs(from Raton, New Mexico), also incorporates a woodblock. Others... "Switchback", "Lost Expedition", and "Snake-bit", which has accompaniment of maracas at certain junctures. I owe Mr. Anderson a debt of gratitude.
That was wonderful! Reminds me of my own typewriter days, with the old-fashioned, now obsolete typewriter. I haven't heard that Leroy Anderson piece in ages. Kudos to the typist-percussionist!
+Felaine Catfan Yep, but they had to use the external for the piece. We played this in an assembly in high school. I "played" the typewriter and bell. It's really harder than it looks.
OMG - that is not easy! what timing it takes - including the bell and moving the carriage! holy cow!!!!! just perfect and so well presented. congrats to the conductor and the orchestra, too. thank you sooo much :) 🌷🌿 🛎 🌱🌼 💻
@@MissSolaris Yes, it's actually a handbell, meant to mimic the 'ding' the carriage used to make when it got to the end of a line and needed to return/go to the next line. Those types of manual typewriters, in good working order, are probably pretty hard to find now.
Since you're addressing men and not just one man, and women not just one woman, try bravi and brave next time. But since you're referring to a mixed group, bravi alone is sufficient.

Leroy Anderson one of the great geniuses of music. Modern generations are missing compositions like this. Everybody listens to Sleigh Ride and have NO idea it was written by Leroy Anderson,,,,!,,,,
I used to go to regular meetings in 1956 inTimaru NZ and across the road was a night typing class. The sound of them all and their cadence music could be heard across the street. I have since wondered if modern day secretaries still learn keyboard skills?
Before Personal Computers, I liked to type all my papers by myself and so I become a "touch typist" on the Lettera 22 and later, on the Selectric. I listened to Mozart when typing, and on few occasions the EOL bell played a fortunate note along with the music; but the piece above is on a totally different level. Congratulations to whoever had the idea to combine harmonically the sounds of a typewriter and those of an orchestra...

Yes, percussionists have to be very adaptable. They play many different instruments, depending on composers' sometimes very strange ideas
Yeah skilled percussionist. His rhythm was absolutely perfect and controlled on the fast bits.

Laugh if you will but he’s actually playing two instruments.. the typewriter and the hand bell.
actually that ding is a sound typewriters make when you press the "enter" key or go to the next line.
@@Cry_ct actually the ding is when the carriage gets to the end of its run. It’s a warning to return the carriage and start a new line.

And yes he is playing both. But that is the general description of a percussionist

im waiting for Mr. Bean to play that typewriter
damn it would be 10000x better
Same feeling here
It would be not original. Look for Jerry Lewis intead

My first thought was Mr Bean, who would be hilarious. But this one was great because he wasn't over the top, just a soloist.
The way he came in and set everything up reminded me of Bean.
