I hope you enjoy these Fun Christmas Songs on A Lot of Different Musical Instruments!
The Music in this video:
- Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy by Tchaikovsky
- The Little Drummer Boy by Katherine Kennicott Davis
- You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch - Words & Music by Theodor Geisel, Albert Hague
- Carol of the Bells by Mykola Leontovych
the amount of skill and precision needed to play the marimba like that is impressive
I did a lot of slow practice because it’s very easy to hit a wrong note!
Some kid in my junior high band a couple years back could do it effortlessly despite it being their first time, it was insane
No I play it and I'm in sixth grade
@@magemiles7237 You play a complicated and precise song like the one he played on marimba with 5 mallets in sixth grade?
@@magemiles7237 with five mallets?
0:27 That amount of multitasking is supernatural. You are truly talented.
🙏 Comes from doing percussion and drum set for a long time. Wishing you the best!
Really though
I don't wanna come off as that guy here, but that example is not even the best example of multitasking in the video. The 5 mallet marimba piece requires by far more coordination and mallet/hand independence than the simple rhythms you hear in little drummer boy. It just seems more like "multitasking" because he's on 2 different instruments. That said both are impressive, and the fact it comes so naturally and fluidly is the mark of a skilled percussionist.
Really no offense, I'm glad you're impressed, but it's hilarious how what you call "supernatural" is by far the least impressive performance in the video
It’s not that hard xd
Please make a full version of "carol of the bells" played on the chimes! It sounded so ethereal, especially with how effortlessly you played😭
Yea! It sounded great 👏😊
Carol of the bells goes so hard for no reason
@@tired_introvert6299yea I did it for my school concert
I just realized just HOW impressive this is. Not only does Mr. Porter need to get every song/instrument perfect, but he has to get them all perfect in one continuous take -- he doesn't cut
watching someone actually play carol of the bells is hella impressive. listening to it, i always imagine a big group of people all playing bells at the same time to get that layered feeling it has
samezies
it sounded so coooooooool
This is the video you’re (well were watching 13 days ago) watching right now: ua-cam.com/video/oq4Dp8iQYFk/v-deo.html
I came here to say this I’m glad I wasn’t the only one
Damn I've actually played it before at a Carol concert with 2 of my friends
The songs are all gold, but I also have to say that I love the way he announces the instruments
🤣🙂
Same!
MARIMBA
Never gets old!
@@frickermc.fricker4791 lol
These songs on different percussion instruments is expertly well played, you're so talented
In high school I never got the full melody for the tubular bells. It’s so cool seeing you play a full melody on them not just whole notes for this song.
As a percussionist I always jump at the opportunity to play chimes (tubular bells). Something about the action of striking and the feedback from the bell resonates so nicely in my bones.
It's one of the most immediately satisfying instruments. I believe we have a natural resonance and certain instruments and sounds hit that sweet spot.
It’s timpani for me
@@junethanoschurchill6750 aha me too lol
I really like the way you worded this comment lol
Odd choice I know but it's the tamberine for me lol
as a percussionist, i get a lot of joy out of these!
Awesome! Where are you from?
@@JoePorterPercussion nc!
Hello my friend
Nice pfp :))))
@@hogguyfromfnf5462 brethren, it has been so long
How many takes does it take for you to get the instruments played perfectly one after another?
0:20 Mario grabbing a coin sfx.
Me: Struggles to play harmonica with simple songs
This guy: Plays 5 Instruments flawlessly in 2 minutes with amazing songs
roblos
Practice makes perfect, my friend!
@@scoobersceeber9021 Thanks :D
If you want to play an instrument but can’t play the harmonica I recommend a xylophone, recorder, or ukulele. I would probably go for a kids xylophone in case you don’t like it because xylophones can get expensive. It’s also okay if you want to keep working at harmonica! 😉
Keep practicing harmonica it’s a sick instrument
Ooh, Carol of the Bells is my favorite Christmas song and the Tubular Bells are my favorite instrument, that sounded absolutely amazing! Do you think you could do a video for the full song?
😀 I’ll consider that in the future!
Please do!
@@JoePorterPercussion that would be awesome!!
@@JoePorterPercussion Cool 8)
Wait are those not chimes
Let’s just appreciate how hardworking this guy is he works so hard to learn these songs on these instruments

The fact he has the camera on his head makes it like: *“POV: you are an absolutely amazing musician”* ;)
1:31 “chang, chang, chang, chang…”
Marimba is one of the most prettiest and underrated instruments along with the harp.
I don’t think harp is underrated so much as underutilized.
“This is a toy xylophone honey”
“ *G L O C K E N S P I E L* “
“What”
I had a concert yesterday! We played Up On the Housetop, Jingle Bells and We Wish You A Merry Christmas, It’s nice to see there’s a bunch of people who share the same percussion interests!
Nice to hear that. Where are you from and what instrument(s) do you play?
Nice
So did I I was in the percussion and jazz band
Do you go to FVMS?
We couldn’t have a concert or be in the parade this year 😭 our band director got fired and we yet to have a replacement. We were gonna play Happy Xmas, war is over, Up on the housetop, Christmas swings, Blue Christmas, welcome Christmas, and ever ‘Twas the Parade before Christmas. Which was our parade music.
This is just pure talent and awesomeness
1:25 was actually amazing!
Hi everyone! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas! Let me know what music you would like to hear in the future!
Theme from Morrowind
bloons tower defense' 6 basic theme
Spyro theme song all time favourite video game as a child
Sleigh ride
Good rest ye merry gentlemen?
1:23 best christmas song ever made and no one can change my mind.
It's beginning to look like Christmas 🥶
1:25 was nice. The bells wanted me to sing Friday night funkin.
My 3 year old son is autistic and he is pretty obsessed with your videos. He goes around the room to different spots as you change instruments and plays along! Brings me a lot of joy because I was also a percussionist!
Can we just appreciate how talented this guy is?!?!?
I was a woodwind (flute and oboe), but dated a percussionist in high school. Miss hearing all of these instruments. Takes a lot of talent! Great job!
I played sax and then later transitioned to the Marimba...I hated reading sheet music and developed my play by ear technique. I still use it to this day on my keyboard 😁👍
0:00 dance of the sugar plum fairy
0:27 the little drummer boy
0:54 you're a mean one mr.grinch
1:25 carol of the bells
These instruments are so cool and the time he takes to learn every one of them is so impressive to me!😊
I can only dream of playing instruments this good.
You can do it!
As someone who plays these in my Marching band in High School, these instruments are a treat to play. Good job!
The tubes were amazing!
I am convinced this man can play anything
The fact that you play all these songs back-to-back in one go is incredible
I love percussion instruments and I just started watching not too long ago!
I love percussion instruments as well 😉 Where are you from?
@@JoePorterPercussion eastern US
@@JoePorterPercussion I actually made it into my honor band for snare drum.
@@PokemonPedigree awesome to hear that! Wishing you all the best on your musical journey!
this man is in love with the marimba
cant blame him, i love the tropical type noise
The skill on the Tubular Bells 1:24
Hey Joe, great video! Do you ever have any bloopers? I can’t help but notice that your videos are usually done in one take, unless you really are a musical god. Merry Christmas!
Yes, it’s extremely easy to hit wrong notes on mallet percussion instruments because you can’t physically feel them. I have to practice very slowly to get consistent.
@@JoePorterPercussion Of course, I didn’t even think about that 😅 Thank you for the insight!
I used to be a percussionist a bit ago, so this hits home really hard! 🥁
I'm a beginner in percussion so you have any tips?
You are one with the beat and the beat is with you
The grinch is my fav one
I'm genuinely impressed with how incredible that chime playing was.
1:46 We need the full version of it
++
1:25 actually
You have such amazing hand control! With things like the vibraphone and marimba, you did so well! I've played violin for 3 years now, and can still mess up fingering, but you got every note on point. I hope you have a lovely Christmas too, you sure as hell deserve it
The grinch was by far my favorite. That takes some serious skill!
That Carol of The Bells.. Oh.. My.. GOD.. It was amazing!
We’re singing Carol of the Bells for our winter choir concert so trying to sing it at a fast pace (the altos, my group, have the harmony) was really fun
Awesome!
I feel like you go to parklane
I used to go there and I did a sing
@@chopmunk8614 That’s literally what the street I have to go down to get to my house is called
Doing a sing is fun
0:54 That Song Is Really Satisfying, You Are A Literal Legend!
THAT CAROL OF THE BELLS! HOLY 👏🏼
The tubular bells are so nice
Немногие знают но carol of the bells это изначально украинская песня
Cool, I didn't know that (I Google translated the comment btw)
I thought it was called Ukrainian bell carol
I knew it was a Ukrainian song because when I played it in my band(I play trumpet and I'm in 6th grade) the music sheet said Ukrainian bell carol
guys he’s so good if you replaced this with the original one you wouldn’t notice if it changed or not! That’s how good he is!
1:24 this one remember me the bells ringing when I was at my grandmother's house in the mountains
Ah, good memories
i love the last one
This man has so many instruments he can make a 1 hour special featuring all of it
The amount of skill and effort that goes into these videos is UNREAL.
Damn Joe, I've seen a couple of your videos but this one was extra impressive for some reason. You are super talented!!! Thank you!!!
Cool Christmas Songs you have played!
We played several of these during Christmas concerts and it's super cool hearing just bits and pieces of percussions parts
all the skills of knowing how to play the instrument, the song, and THEN ALL IN ONE TAKE? insane
An alternative title to this video: "songs that pentatonix has already sung on a lot of different musical instruments"
Absolutely excellent!
That low D on the marimba is so satisfying! Are you a band teacher? I used to play percussion back in high school, these videos always take me back!
Glad they bring back memories! I do teach percussion in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada
@@JoePorterPercussion No way you live in Lethbridge! I live in Medicine Hat! I would've never guessed you were from Canada!
@@pearlz9773 awesome, do you play music there?
@@JoePorterPercussion I play tuba at MHHS
0:06 tchaikovksy would be proud
😎
@@JoePorterPercussion You rock!
@CalifornianCuttlefish I get ti
@@CalifornianCuttlefish I get it
0:11 TCHAIKOVKSY would be proud
I can not even read music, play by ear or blow a kazoo and this gentleman can play an array of instruments seemingly effortlessly. I am in awe and tip my hat to an amazing person!!
Hey Joe! I started playing xylophone a couple of month ago. In the future I really want to learn this technic, when you holding 2(or more) sticks in each hand. Is it as hard to learn as it looks?)
That’s awesome! Start watching videos on Burton, musser-Steven’s and traditional cross grip. Those are the three main ways of holding the mallets. I would suggest figuring out which one feels natural to start and eventually you can learn more about all three grips. Just take small steps at a time and you can pick it up!
I love Christmas and“ the dance of sugar plum fairy" this song is soooooooooo nostalgic
Edit- I forgot about chimes
I love it 2!
I'm really glad I found your videos. As a 44+ year percussionist (mostly trap kit), it's a joy to see and hear all the great sounds out of those other instruments.
Awesome to hear that! 44 years is amazing!!!
You did sooo good on this! respect

I feel like you’d be a perfect metal drummer! This was awesome! 🤘
YEAH YEEAAAHH: James Hetfield
Love this song so much
U are so awesome!!! Love all these songs. They put me in such a good joyful spirit... Iv had covid and been on my bed for 2 weeks. Nothing has made me smile like this. Dope
I really love how you did that last one! How do you always get the right notes?!
This reminds me how many good songs/carols Christmas has and honestly the amount of talent it needs to be able to play all of those instruments that way is amazing
Your so talented! I love all of them because it sounds just like it!
Magic to the ears...
Great As Always 😊🇮🇷😘
🙏 Hope you have a nice day!
@@JoePorterPercussion 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This was so cool! I was wondering if you could try playing some other kind of Christmas songs with only percussion instruments like last Christmas by Wham!, All I want for Christmas is you by Mariah Carey and some other stuff of your choice, possibly something from Michael Buble. Thanks for all the awesome stuff Joe, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.
Thanks for the suggestions. Have a great Christmas!
Dude the speed and precision of the chimes to play carol of the bells was amazing! I bet that took a lot of practice and focus!
I just can’t stop watching this it’s so good
Such beautiful sounding instruments! And he’s so good at playing them!
🙏 Have a nice day!
Muito bom irmaoo
