“Musicians have a deep connection with their instrument” Me: Oh bassoons... I’m not a musician, I’m a bassoon fan but yet I blush whenever I see the bassoon.
Double reed instruments are great, but be prepared to learn to make and adjust your own reeds. An oboist or bassoonist who fails to embrace this challenge won’t go very far. Trust me…
I'm always confused on what reeds are for. Lol, I'm new to woodwinds since I'm trying to, earn every instrument. But, isn't a reed something you just buy in the store?
Hi man! Awesome video, but as a bassoonist, bassoons don’t just play the bassline, a lot of the time it joins the euphonium and plays counter melody’s/melodys, as a bassoonist, I’ve been plagued by people sticking the bassoon on bass lines, for me and other bassoonists, the notes are harder to control down there, which in my opinion, is why the bassoon is best at counter melodys/tenor registers
All instrument ever percussion string or wind bass is important because bass can balance and give proper tune in every sound imagine playing a song without bass is not a good to listen
R4i ni M4ti0n that’s true but in a band, bassoon isn’t as loud as say a tuba or bass trombone, so as a bass instrument, you can’t really hear it’s presence at all, which is why it’s better playing the counter melody’s as you can hear the sound of the bassoon better and clearer
@@nyancs7098 I’m a bassoon fan and if I ever write a piece of music. I’m giving the bassoon the solo because let’s be real here, the bassoon deserves a solo.
I am playing the bassoon right now and in a song, we got called beyond the darkness, usually me the trombones and baritone got the same but I got a part that was low bass and under and it wanted me to play f. I feel what you are saying is very true and I honestly have more fun hearing and playing higher and playing the melody and counter melody.
Ive been playing the oboe for 3 years in orchrestras aswell because of an afterschool program. Ive had 9 concerts over the years, and i really love the oboe! I think the hardest part for me is my embosure. My strength is cite reading.
Nice video. But You've forgot the recorder. It's the simplest beginner's woodwind, but it's hard to master it. Well, I played the clarinet almost for six years, then a saxophone was borrowed to me for several months at the music school, but I returned to my first woodwind, and I play it proudly in our church orchestra. If there's no recorder part in the score, our director gives me the 2nd flute or the 2nd oboe part.
Wow, you're amazing. How did you learn to play all these instruments so well? My goal is to learn all of the instruments that are in a symphony orchestra. I've learned all strings and percussion. Now I gotta work on wind instruments, which I'm currently learning flute, but I hope I make it due to my lung and heart conditions. Give me your secret.
Thank you!! My secret is that I’ve made it fun every step of the way. As you can see on my channel, I put out videos on all these instruments. Having a video goal (even if it’s just a progress video) makes practicing WAY more fun. Best of luck to you!
I have a silver instrument, how can I have it tested to see if it’s really Silver, and how can I decide what to charge for it. I know it’s quite old. It’s a Beuscher. If I recall correctly the spelling.
Hey can you get the contrabass bassoon it would be great to get that next so can you help me with learning the contrabass bassoon also can you please see if you can get one for the school or I’ll try to rent one
Finding one to buy or rent is really difficult since they are about 1/20th as popular as the bassoon, which is already pretty uncommon. I hope you can find one though!
I Play Alto sax! A very fun instrument with many pieces you can play, it can play most if not every style, all Instruments are challenging but it also depends on the amount of practice you do
I used to play trumpet in beginning band and I hated the instrument because of how much air an embouchure was needed to get good, consistent sound... It's not a good beginner instrument. This lead to me discovering the ocarina, and I much prefer it over any instrument used in actual bands. I clicked this video hoping to find something I'd like similar to an ocarina.. these instruments have similar fingerings. But, none of these appeal to me either in sound or design. I would most likely prefer oboe, but it seems like it can only hold a melody properly if you glissando alot, which isn't a pure tone like the ocarina gives off. I'm having a very hard time looking for a secondary instrument I wanna pick up.
I have an addendum. I'm looking up world and folk instruments, which definitely would fit my bill instead of traditional American woodwind or other band instruments.
I play ocarina too, actually. Super fun instrument! The fingerings (and sound) are really close to the flute, so that would be my first recommendation if you want to still play in the band. Playing in a large group is a unique experience, I hope you stick with it! And yeah, trumpet IS tough to start, it takes months to get a somewhat decent sound on it, that’s just the way it goes!
I've been playing with an ocarina for 2 years. I thought it would be easy to jump into a flute right away and start playing the songs I know....I was wrong...very wrong. I didn't know I had to learn to make a funny face while trying to blow at a flute. This is going to take some dedication and practice.
De todos os instrumentos musicais mostrados ai a minha irmã sabe tocar sax, clarinete, flauta germânica soprano, e a flauta barroca tenor e piano o meu irmão sabe tocar violão e guitarra e violão, eu tenho um pífano Yamaha YRF 21 e um pífano de PVC quê fiz mas só falta aprender as notas que busco na Internet.
“Musicians have a deep connection with their instrument”
Me: Oh bassoons... I’m not a musician, I’m a bassoon fan but yet I blush whenever I see the bassoon.
Lol
It’s true I blush whenever I play my flute
Same!!!
.
fun fact: they're also known as the "clown of the orchestra"
same, i feel like that whenever i see a trombone, bass trombone, tuba, and bari sax

This is great advice and so true I’m a beginner and am trying to learn to make my own reeds
Do plastic (synthetic) double reeds also require adjustments?
@@Petero3 My understanding is that you can scrape them if necessary, but it’s not encouraged.
I'm always confused on what reeds are for. Lol, I'm new to woodwinds since I'm trying to, earn every instrument. But, isn't a reed something you just buy in the store?
@@raquelvasquez5152 you can buy double reeds but they’re like $20 each and only last less then a month, that’s why it’s better to make you own reeds

Flute: no, I don't think I will
IM NOT LIKE *OTHER* INSTRUMENTS

Finally a beginner video that shows of the bari sax
The best video I've seen on how to choose an instrument.
You’re making me blush:)
As a parent, my favorite is the one that comes with "large scholarships" (bassoon)
don't fool yourself there.. I got absolutely nothing for playing bassoon
@@eialzorn9284 You picked the wrong school. Or the wrong parents.

I've made up my mind, im going with the harmonica lol 👍🏆.
Excellent choice, sir
@@a-mazur-ing just purchased a hohner special 20 in the key of "c".
I was inspired at an oper concert today to try out a woodwind instrument. The oboe looks the coolest to me. Maybe I'll try it someday. O.o
Cool! I want to do alto saxophone :)
Oboe players are rock stars, follow your inspiration!
The oboe has a double reeds, which don't last long
@@tabithacanada i dont play oboe, but they chew through reeds faster than *insert something fast*
i feel like he would make a great band director
Someday! 👀
Definitely
You can see how passionate he is about music
It's the truth!
I love the sound of the baritone saxophone!
Saxophone is a bit tricky to remember, im a brass fan but i do love the saxophone
Bari sax is my fav lol

This is so helpful. Thank you from the UK. 🇬🇧

I had to laugh when the reed broke
I’m glad someone out there liked my joke
Thank god someone appreciates flute
Lots of people appreciate it LOL I don't understand your comment
flute is more popular than clarinet dude what you're on about
I have a silver instrument, how can I have it tested to see if it’s really Silver, and how can I decide what to charge for it. I know it’s quite old. It’s a Beuscher. If I recall correctly the spelling.
It is almost certainly just a lacquer, however take it to a music shop and see what they think!
This video was a joy to watch. Very nice
Thank you so much!
i played oboe in school before but had to stop because the oboe i got broke :C
Heartbreaking. And oboebreaking.
Thats what i call a Quinlan and Fabish bassoon
oof
But its cool that you even own one.
Sadly just borrowing my university’s… someday I might own one!
The saxophone version of Long Train Runnin' sounds cool, were did you find the music? I want to play it.
I actually put this together myself! I can get it to you if you would like it
Imagine not watching this as high school saxophone player
I don't know if I prefer violin, viola, flute or clarinet 👀
Have you decided yet?
@@a-mazur-ing nope 🙈 I decided that when I start working, I'll go to a music school to test them out and maybe start taking lessons
@@a-mazur-ing I believe I like the sound of the clarinet more than the flute, but I think it's harder to find clarinet lessons here
What happened to the wooden bassoon that was sitting there?
Hey can you get the contrabass bassoon it would be great to get that next so can you help me with learning the contrabass bassoon also can you please see if you can get one for the school or I’ll try to rent one
Finding one to buy or rent is really difficult since they are about 1/20th as popular as the bassoon, which is already pretty uncommon. I hope you can find one though!

Piano is for me.
How you learn many instrument
Many practice.
@@a-mazur-ing good answer mate😎

Muito bom!!
I want to play the alto sax or tenor sax but I don’t know if they are hard or not
Every instrument is hard! But that's why it's cool to be able to play! Go for it.
I Play Alto sax! A very fun instrument with many pieces you can play, it can play most if not every style, all Instruments are challenging but it also depends on the amount of practice you do
So what about the trumpet?
You’re gonna go crazy when you learn about the brass instruments! - ua-cam.com/video/cRU52SDerzo/v-deo.htmlsi=I7uKaYOEYp3jT0pE
Thank you!
Thank you so much! I think I'll do flute
That’s awesome! I think you’ll love it!
Very informative thanksss
