- I'm pretty sure playing this app gave me a sinus infection. I've been sick for two weeks now besties. The Owl has found me and he is out for blood.
I am still in no way associated with Duolingo. I just made this video for funsies and because I was genuinely interested in the new music course!

Thanks to all of the comments that suggested this app! Special shoutout to @RmationYT for literally predicting the future.

Video summarized in one sentence: watching a former band kid learn what a treble clef is
real and true
Hang on, don’t US Bands use Treble Clef? Here in the UK Treble is the common clef while Bass isn’t as common.
@@jonathantitterton9455 they do but it’s a band kid so anything is possible
Btw is it true you guys say demisemiquaver and crotchet? We learned about it in music theory and thought it was super funny
@@ShadowDancer1000 yep, we do. It’s part of our musical tuition as we could go into an Orchestra, a Wind Band (which is the set up of the majority of Military Bands here) or a Brass Band. I personally am in a Brass Band and have been playing Brass for 9 years.
@@jonathantitterton9455 hah semibreve
Duolingo music would make sense maybe if it was teaching theory, then I could get behind that. It seems unrealistic to teach an instrument without physically having that instrument in your hand. But teaching theory could maybe be done online?
yeah that's a good point! I could see this as a learning aid for when kids are just starting out, especially to practice sight reading!
guys my uncle works at duolingo thats how i predicted it
Liar
So does that mean you know when anything new comes out and what does he do
Do you know if duolingo art is coming next?
@@PDD555 no but duolingo rizz tips is coming tho
Duolingo music was announced months/ a year ago, nothing super new dude 😂
Congrats on accidentally inventing jazz, looking forward to new music innovations 👍

oh
hi there henryeye, popularily known as the flag guy but doing more niche stuff
Weird, I was expecting they would go into music theory, where I could see the app shine.
The clef you didn’t know is known as an alto clef, a C clef, or simply just the viola clef! As a violist, I would know.
I would just call it the Alto Clef. Calling C clef isn't specific enough cause Another C clef that is used a lot exists. Tenor Clef. Then calling it the Viola clef isn't fully accurate cause the trombone uses it quite often in orchestral music.
@@toxiboi5771 I call it the alto clef as well
Yeah, I love alto clef! To me, it makes the most sense as a clef, despite having learned treble and bass clef first, because middle C is in the middle.
i use alto clef more than c clef(i also played viola for 4 years) but i hate reading ledger lines cuz they throw me off in the pitch of the note. usually really high notes like a5 would be a ledger line but in alto clef, b4 is already a ledger line so yeah i guess im just not used to it(before i played viola i also did violin and ive been playing piano for the longest time)
@@toxiboi5771they were just giving other names it’s commonly called, bro. Humble yourself dawg
This might help you read music, but I can't see this actually helping anybody with anything else. Like you said, it's more like a rythm game than anything. It's a great idea but not the best execution, imo
Edit: Just got to the end and we literally just said the same thing lmao. Glad to see another duo video tho!

If you need it, a lot of the early levels look like they would be good ear training. (Honest, for some people, arranging notes from lowest to highest is not trivial.) No, this isn’t much good for learning any real instrument, but you might learn enough bout reading music to use apps like MuseScore.
Amusingly enough I think I’m the exact target demographic as someone who remembers how to play piano from middle school but not read music, as I need to relearn what sheet music is but am still rocking that keyboard hand position lol
I think it’s mostly for learning to read sheet music and where each note is located. Also it is kinda fun as a rhythm game ngl
@@Light.Of.Kshahrewar2.0 I also think that you could learn positions of notes better so you don't have to write them down or always do the tricks to remember note order.
Duolingo: Spanish or vanish
Duolingo music: piano keys or I break your knees
Duolingo maths: sums or your lungs
As someone who did band through middle school, high school, and now college I really want to try and speedrun this lol
dude you would probably crush this!
I played piano for 11 years and even after unlocking the last level right away, it still took me a month to 3 star all the songs. The keyboard moving around was part of it. The other thing was they hold you to their version of the song, regardless of how the song is actually played. Ex, battle hymn of the republic is usually swung, but their version is straight and took some getting used to
You don’t know any music theory
@@link-so9wnhow do you know :3
I would never use this to teach somebody music, I'd say this also reflects on how poorly the language learning is structured. The fact that the lessons jump straight from "here's what notes sound like" to "here's a full staff with all of this shit you've never seen before" is fact enough that the way the Duolingo considers how to teach an entire subject is kind of wanting. This has also applied to my language learning experience on the app, where it will just show you a concept without actually teaching you what it means. I speak Spanish natively, and when a friend was doing some Duolingo Spanish, I wanted to help him out. Duolingo had introduced verb conjugations, but it never said how to fucking conjugate a verb or even WHAT PRONOUNS SPANISH HAS! That's not even getting into the fucking awful way Duolingo wants the user to answer questions, because it's fucking awful in both music and language, because both are not the type of thing that a fucking app can teach. I haven't looked at Duolingo Math, but I'd imagine it being much better at actually teaching it because it seems like the Duolingo team sees all complex problems as "reducible to its fundamental components" like they're NFT bros.
On re-reading this comment I should probably just make a rant video at this point.
Here's a microphone: 🎤 Say it louder for the people in the back because YOU ARE SO RIGHT!! They need lessons or something to make this easier to understand for beginners!
Right?? Duolingo is fine for vocab but does not teach sentence structure or verb conjugations which is just.. how are you going to speak to someone in their language if you can't string together a sentence?
Holy Balls!
and let's not forget how you get scored for pitch and rhythm! as if the point of music is to "score high" in some sort of metrics! and i thought i wouldn't see something get just as wrong about music as the piano dramas twoset roasted...
I *just* discovered your channel after looking up pasta tier lists and you just posted this--which is of interest to me. Subbed.
Why did I you- never mind.

As a bass guitar and viola player I totally didn’t struggle on skipping through all of duolingo music because I can’t read treble clef. I mean. I can totally read treble clef!
Edit: just got to the alto clef part and I am SOBBING
Bro doesn’t know the easiest clef💀
@@link-so9wncause it’s not their clef wdym
I’m a viola player too. For some reason it was easy for me to learn alto clef. Even after 4 months of ACTUAL piano lessons I still didn’t know how to read treble or bass 🤦♀️
How long have you’ve been playing viola? Because higher level viola pieces always have treble clef parts.
@@petragames6153Viola also uses treble clef
Kinda wish this would be more like simply piano, like it would listen to you play on a keyboard instead of bottons
Yeah there could be a listening option or something
@@vansad28 they did say they might add it eventually!!
@@ekoz2006 'might' 'eventually' hmm dosent seem like good odds for us
“The violin cleft that I can’t remember the name of.” As a viola player, NO. NOT VIOLIN, STOP. 😭
EXACTLY
I know like its not a class but I really wish it was. For languages like spanish (which I learn on the side of my class in school) it can actually teach you (sometimes) why the answer is the way it is. For music it teaches you NOTHING about the actual value of the note, the time signature, or the clef. It asks you at some point to tell you the time signature with eighth notes, but what if I didn't know the value of an eighth note. As far as Im concerned (I haven't gotten very far ) it doesn't teach you any other note values except for the basics and I struggle beyond the basics for sight reading. It's kind of annoying and that's really my complaint about duolingo music. It's basically a game that you can just do on piano tiles atp
That's a good point! Hopefully they will add better lessons in the future because right now it's difficult to pick up if you're starting from the beginning.
@@twinfettuccineyou have to just practice andtry not to tense up to much. i could tell in the video that your hands were probably shaking too much and tensely. that’s probably why you seemed to be pounding the notes too early 😅
Love how duolingo straight up turned into a rhythm game
As a french horn and piano player myself, I can confirm that Duolingo music is the most difficult out of all the Duolingo's
calling alto clef the violin clef is painful 😔 viola representation
Duolingo Music has taken over lol, I use it all the time now! So thanks for doing our requests! I was waiting, so true dedication!
I could play hot cross buns with my eyes closed (I'm in orchestra), maybe ode to joy too idk lol
Lol also I'm learning star spangled banner in choir

I genuinely need another speedrun random language from u
Love all your videos. Keep up the great work.
Petition for fettuccine Speedrun high valyrian
aw thanks dude!
@@twinfettuccineNo problem.
We don't have Maths or Music in the UK yet, so this was pretty interesting to find out what the fuss about Music is!
I play the violin and we don't use the clef at 3:04. We use a treble clef, I think that clef is a viola clef.
alto clef

alto
my bad y'all 😭
@twinfettuccine OH MY GOD, HEY GURL!!!
Also, your totally fine 🙂
The Owl gets stronger, one lesson at time

We had ode to joy and simple gifts in our marching band show this year!!
I used this video to practice double bass on drums, thank you!
Love your vids
Wait as a Gran Turismo fan I love that their music is in your videos!
Ooo I'm glad you caught that! I love Gran Turismo sm 😭✨
The lessons before the songs prepare you for the song.
You can remember treble clef lines by remembering EGBDF stands for every good buger deserves fries
Petition for fettuccine Speedrun high valyrian
Oooo I like that one!
when i was learning guitar, they taught us "every guitarist begins doing fine"
As a trumpet section squad leader, I’d definitely like to try this app out to see if it helps me improve my skills
I love your videos so much, please be more active on your channel
I like how twin fettuccine has just become the "Duolingo person".
this is my life now 🤷
lol@@twinfettuccine
i play trumpet rn! thats so cool :)
Duolingo should enable midi/piano keyboard integration. I love the app by the way
can i just say how i find it absurdly funny how they go out of their way to avoid accidentals XD (like in star spangled banner where there should be a sharp 4)
this is insane, i opened the video, i paused and tryed myself and we did literally the same exact things, as soon as the first lesson ended straight for the 69 just to fail it once and pass it the next try lol
our brains were really on the same wavelength!
Omg sick new pfp
thanks man!!
"Are we in the violin clef that I can't remember the name of?"
Viola players:
WOOO YEAH IT’S HERE!!!
After watching this, now I kinda want to see your reaction of first doing the lesson “prepare for (song title here)” before doing the song(s) 😁
THERE'S LESSONS TO PREPARE? THAT MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE!!
@@twinfettuccine Yes, there is 😁
It’s usually the lesson before the song, but after the “theory” lesson. Of course, the lesson spread out may differ slightly between units.
However, I think the pattern of “lesson to prepare for song” followed by said song seemed to be consistent.
This is so cool!

ive been playing piano since I was 3 years old and I struggle with this 😭
As an pianist, you are a successful musician
nice to meet a fellow trumpet player
3:01 it's alto clef and the viola plays it!!!
Petition for fettuccine Speedrun high valyrian
The "violin clef" is actually a viola (the only frickin instrument to use it) clef! It's called alto clef, and middle c is the middle line, where b would be in treble.
Hey i lovee your duolingo vidss can you do more language speedruns?😊😊😊😊😊😊
Petition for fettuccine Speedrun high valyrian
So you're telling me duolingo has a built-in rhythm game now?
*downloads duolingo*
Just jumped to unit 69 and it was literally simple music stuff jeez I feel bad for people actually going through it one at a time. Probably because I just know a lot of music stuff, but I really thought it would be a bit more complex especially for the final unit.
Honestly, it isn’t just you. I’ve only been in band for about a year and the only part I’d probably have trouble with is the various clefs, because I play percussion. Duolingo is just a bad language and music learning app in general.
@@suncrusher. It has definitely helped me with language stuff because it goes far more in depth than the math and music could ever, and this is due to a lot of learning a language being just a ton of vocab you need to learn. Though I also play percussion and I have had to learn how to play both main clefs since I am primarily mallets lol. Literally all the information in all of those units in the skip test was literally all stuff I learned in the first week of middle school introduction band.
It’s alto/tenor clef! It’s used fully by violas and sometimes by trombones. The center of it is middle c and on tenor it is moved up one line
I play piano and i suck at reading sheet music cause i rely so much on my ears. And apparently i have to try out for piano this year for band. So im using duolingo to fix my issue of i cant read sheet music anymore
I recommend to compare the two versions of duolingo math. There are more differences than you think.

Ooo interesting, I'll keep it in mind! 👀
Your videos always so cute!

The fact i had a Duolingo ad on a Duolingo video
finally a upload😭😭😭
real
I'm a trumpet play started in 5th grade now in 8th and i was in first chair every year does marching band and jazz band did solo and ensemble every year and honors band.
I'm not saying I'm a band kid but I'm pretty sure I'm a band kid
it’s literally simply piano but with only treble clef
Petition for fettuccine Speedrun high valyrian
I jumped all the way to unit 59 until I realized if I jumped to each unit individually I would have gotten so much more xp
Ah, fellow band kid has tried Duolingo music, same here.
I thought this would be fun to see in a "yeah, i know how to play flute, this shit's ez lol" way. I forgot i know FRENCH music and procedeed to be lost the second you said treble clef. (clé de Sol ?)
my years of rhythm gaming is going to pay off
Heck no.
Duo: Did you get your practice in?
Me: n-n-n-nooo
Duo: You know what that means
My ad was Duolingo after watching the video-
They should add instruments in the music other then piano
Finally some twin fettuccine duolinggo videos which can feed my starving brain cells
"the violin clef that I don't remember what the name is" is a viola clef called alto clef LMAO (and there's also tenor that looks exactly the same but placed differently on the staff, used by cellos and some other instruments), violins use treble clef
At 3:18 when she started playing notes it reminded me of the song ghost by justin bieber. It sthe line that goes, "So if I cant be close to you..."
Zelda musicccc! :O
Goron Cityyyy.
As a current piano kid this really hurt to watch
i really hope they have a guitar one so i can actually use my guitar
you're not supposed to do it with one finger, you're supposed to put your whole hand on it like on the piano. Also it's supposed to be just a music reading course, not piano, so I think for that they're pretty good!
ol' twin fettucine has became the duolingo guy now
if he doesn't keep up on those lessons he will be a former living kid
HOW!! I look for duolingo. I am looking for math and music tap. it does not have math and music. What should I do?😢
As someone who learned piano with do re mi rather than c d e, I was so confused
"Violin cleff I can never remember the name of" physically hurt me/j
I’m a current band kid and duolingo music makes me want to throw my phone
Hm. I should try this
-Someone who has played piano and clarinet for years and will only end up wanting to throw hands with an owl.
Every time I hear republic, I think of clotted cream cookie and him saying "For the better of the republic."
Not me, a certified music teacher, reinstalling duolingo just to play the music levels for myself…
Guys what I find funny is that I got a simplypiano ad before this.. they know duo is just better
it hurt my soul when she went violin clef and she put alto clef...
3:03 hurt me as a viola player
The 🎻 violin clef she was talking about is the ALTO clef which is used for the VIOLA. VIOLINS use the TREBLE clef
THATS WHAT IM SAYING 😂
I'm thrilled that Duolingo is doing music now, because I'm absolutely incapable of understanding a single musical concept and I want to make the owl become an alcoholic like my old piano teacher.
In elementary school I was in chorus and we song simple gifts
The "violin clef" is called the alto clef
3:00 the violin clef? It's the alto clef, the viola clef xD
3:26 It instantly reminded me of the Subnautica ost XD
There are so many better things duolingo could do with music-like actually teach something useful
✨kid in band vibes✨
I’ll stick to just practicing my instrument lol.
MELLOS!
MELLOPHONE MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥
i want this out for andriod bc i want to know how quickly i can speedrun it
If a music app is trying to teach you how to play music without an instrument, it is NOT going to work. Unless it’s teaching you to sing of course
