@@treesquirrel3995 That can be useful advice. Generally staccato notes do not have to be "disconnected". Instead they are connected by one constant flow of air, just stopped by the tongue. They could be disconnected, or they could be connected by air, in which case, you should avoid articulating by stopping your breath and starting it again for the next note unless you really need to take a breath there.
I used to play the flute and it ABSOLUTELY kills your shoulders having to hold it up and never rest it on your shoulder, i didnt stop bc of that, mainly cause of asthma and the fact that my band teacher literally told me if i didnt practice everyday i would never be good enough so yeahh @@galactic_flare7503
I used to play flute ( I play trumpet now) and whenever I get the chance I flip over my valves and play the 1 st valve by blowing through the hole at the bottom
Tbh tho the staccato making is a legit question depending on speed and era of the piece, like in beethovan sonate op.17 on horn the 2nd movement theyre treated more like a shape for the sound to follow than abrupt separations
Staccatos can be played in very different ways, especially in classical music. It depends on what style you are playing and the composers intention. You can play them super short, or more connected in the context of a phrase. Not as dumb as it sounds. Staccato doesn’t mean short, it means separated.
@@Ambarrabma If you play classical music, then you should know it’s not a dumb question. Even in other styles of music this applies. Staccatos will always be played differently, there isn’t a “set way” you should play them. The way you play staccato in a romantic era waltz will definitely be different than baroque. Staccatos in classical will especially be different than staccatos in jazz.
@@saxophonerman1239 yeah idk who liked ur comment because that still doesn’t prove anything. They can be played differently, sure, but staccato notes will never be played connected and will always be separated in one way or another.
The ones like at the very begining that can damage the instrument so easily like leaving it free-standing on the bell are the fastest methods I know of spiking my stress levels.
We have a song where there is a lot of slurring for a super hard trumpet part (it's a level 5 bordering a 6, so the whole piece is pretty hard depending on your part) and we have one guy who keeps tonguing it instead. He says he can't even tell that he's not slurring it. He's also a senior
Dude I thought that was a clarinet that was spinning at the start but being a band kid from last year- so relatable bc us flute players are just, SITTING THERE enduring the PAIN
Helpp the first one is so accurate 😭 there is this kid and he just points the trumpet down to the floor and my director tried fixing his posture but he doesn't listen 💀💀
As a Percussionist, it hurts my *own back* looking at half the trumpet section sitting in the most uncomfortable and awkward position...and it doesn't help that I'm standing right behind them. The only thing that's keeping me from commiting a crime is the snare/cymbal/mallet instrument and music stand in between me...and their chair
Most people don’t actual know that staccato markings just mean sing the note as loud as you can instead of playing it. Your Band Director will love the display of knowledge and passion. The louder the better!
It honestly took me 4 years to realize I didn't sound horrible because I didn't actually know if it sounded different to people in front of me compared to me playing behind it
There was a kid in my band class one who would always sit crisscrossed in the chair and no matter how many times someone tried to correct his posture he would get all mad and annoyed.
Concert Band and Orchestra Double Bassist here, one time I asked my director if she wanted me to hold out the fermata. Never felt more stupid in my entire life. ☠️
Anyone wondering about the stupid question thing staccato markings are dots above notes that tell to to play them short and separated. So it was dumb to ask to play the smooth and connected
Im a sax but i have the worst posture like i be sitting there leaning on my left leg with my elbow to support the weight of the sax because im genuinely too lazy to sit there without breaking my back for once
The posture one is so real, but I only have bad posture if I’m practicing at home by myself because I sit on a bed and don’t bother with a music stand.
I know trumpet players that all show these traits Also the last one is kinda me bc at the slightest imperfection in my tone I cringe and stop playing and think I’m super bad lol
I suppose that’s a stupid question for trumpets.. It’s a valid question for string players though, since sometimes those markings can be staccato, brush strokes, and more depending on context
Not gonna lie 😭 that last one is me with the trombone 😭😭 I always forget to take that large and heavy ass thing home so I barely practice anymore, learning all these new songs, and I'm the best one there, and yet in my ears I sound terrible 😭😶
Why do I feel so attacked? 😂 These are literally me, especially that posture-one. That's exactly my posture when practising actually! 😂 Always have been (for over 30 years) and still is.😂

Dude you are criminally underrated... It's so hard to find band kid content this good
Trombone Timo is also a great band kid channel!
Bro check out Trombone Timo
Orchestra is better.
Nope, band is better
Also GET OUT OF THIS COMMENT SECTION YOU ARENT IN BAND
@@lemonking17 rude
The staccato 💀 I know at least three people like this. I’m sending this to them 😂
NAH CUS I’VE HAD INSTRUCTORS TELL ME TO PLAY STACCATO MORE CONNECTED BEFORE

Im your 1k like
I started this year, and everyone else has like 2 more years of experience and I'm too stupid to even know what that is☠️
Oh staccato means you play the notes disconnected and legato is connected notes. @@KlaebMaster25
I'm a horn player and I have a bad habit of crossing my legs while playing😂
Sameeeee
@@lemonadezlimeadez7733 Thank god I'm not the only one they always call me out infront of everyone🤣
How do you hold ur bell?? Like ur standing? Man i gotta have my legs way apart to play right (yes my mind went dirty too)
@@veronicahendershot7663 I hold my bell high instead of resting it on my lap like the rest ok f the horns
Same with just French horn tho
When the trumpets in my band have bad posture, he asks them if they want to join the clarinets😂
As a clarinet, I say the flutes can teach them a thing or two (our flutes act like their instrument is heavier than a tuba)
@@galactic_flare7503 SAME, AND MY TEACHER AGREES W/ THEM AND PLAYS THE TUBA
We call them clarinet wannabes 😂😂
@@galactic_flare7503 Theres a flute that sits criss cross apple sauce in my band but they surprisingly sound good

the last one BOILS my blood
Why tho
Why
Comparison is the enemy of learning how to play
@@softdrinks3169Because not practicing over summer is a crime!!
The last one is actually me I’ll just not practice all summer and then after a couple minutes I’ll sound amazing lmao
“That might be the dumbest question I’ve ever heard”
Prob my school conductors head every day 🤠
I had a stand partner ask me what key the piece was in 😂
Concert Bb 😂
so true
It’s in a minor
@@twstdrealityi love fingering a minor scales
I had to share stands with a girl and i stg she was practically holding the stand in her hand😭 like girl you know im trying to play too??
My friend asked with the straightest face "Is this a home game" after people had been saying it was gonna be the schools most attended game in history
I MIGHT SEND THIS TO MY TRUMPET FRIENDS!
I used to play flute ( I play trumpet now) and whenever I get the chance I flip over my valves and play the 1 st valve by blowing through the hole at the bottom
Trumpet red flags
1. Playing as loud as you can in my ear and then screaming it wasn’t you
2. Fighting with the band director
For those who don’t know, staccatos make note very separated or “crisp” 👌
Not always
As a flute, this describes every person in my section perfectly
SAMMEE
even in a homeschool band, all of this is relatable.
I'm fr the last one except on saxophone 😭😭
Wow very humble /j
@@gremlinhobotrue
Me, but in tenor saxophone
@@gremlinhobo yes and no
Bruh same
My teach thinks I'm the last one cuz apparently according to her I'm rly good but I think I'm terrible and I always forget to practice 😂
Tbh tho the staccato making is a legit question depending on speed and era of the piece, like in beethovan sonate op.17 on horn the 2nd movement theyre treated more like a shape for the sound to follow than abrupt separations
I feel called out 😅😭
The posture one is me lmao, I usually sit with my legs crossed lmao 😭
I’m in orchestra but I can relate to these lol the second thing has happened more times than I can count 💀
SOMEBODY TEACH ME HOW TO SPIN MY TRUMPET LIKE THAT
The beginning soon was smooth tho-
In our school that’s a little different with a terrible posture he plays so good somehow

Not a trumpet player but in just my first year of playing Clarinet in band, all of these are red flags for ALL instruments. It makes me wanna cry.
The fact you made the first one start to have flat fingers really got me
Being a trumpeter is a red flag itself
FR -a clarinet
@@galactic_flare7503 fr- a euphonium
Bro euphonium is actually a cool instrument - me
@@thesmallboi1949 frfr gang
FR- a bassoonist
I understand the Posture because, I am a percussionist
the first thing he played is "CANTINA - tokyo machine, saxsquash"
The ones like at the very begining that can damage the instrument so easily like leaving it free-standing on the bell are the fastest methods I know of spiking my stress levels.
Bro really thought staccato marking were from the connected edition of music 💀

If i was a trumpet player, i would 100% be the first one
Youve inspired me to get back into trumpet!
As soon as I heard Staccato in a Trumpet short I knew it was gunna be a stupid question lol 😂
When someone sounds so smart, that they basically are speaking a different language
Dude I thought that was a clarinet that was spinning at the start but being a band kid from last year- so relatable bc us flute players are just, SITTING THERE enduring the PAIN
Dude the terrible posture is one in my band they always be resting their trumpet horn on their leg
A guy in my band class had that posture and he’s one of two trumpet players in the band
As a lost grade 8 trumpeter I can agree with all of these. May have made those dumb mistakes a few times myself but that is not important.
The first one made me want to cry as a band kid
NAHH BRO THE COMPULSIVE CAPPER IS LITERALLY ME
I'm in 7th grade band and I'm a percussionist and we have trumpets in our class and trombones
naw dawg that’s crazy 💀
Helpp the first one is so accurate 😭 there is this kid and he just points the trumpet down to the floor and my director tried fixing his posture but he doesn't listen 💀💀

Can you play the last post
Trumpet player red flags
1. They play trumpet

Im going to do violin in orchestra and seeing a musical sheet gives me headaches trying to understand them with only basic note knowledge
Bro did not just ask if you separate staccato or not... 😨
Most people don’t actual know that staccato markings just mean sing the note as loud as you can instead of playing it. Your Band Director will love the display of knowledge and passion. The louder the better!
It honestly took me 4 years to realize I didn't sound horrible because I didn't actually know if it sounded different to people in front of me compared to me playing behind it
Bud roasted me in the intro
OUR DIRECTOR REFUSES TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS FROM ONE OF OUR TRUMPETS ISTG
"um teacher, do you want me to tounge these slurred notes"
Being a trumpet player is already a red flag
The last one just happened in my class today 😂. Not with a trumpet but a clarinet.
THE FLAT FINGERS- THERE PAINFUL TO WATCH😭
Hearing a question like that made me actually hurt inside
There was a kid in my band class one who would always sit crisscrossed in the chair and no matter how many times someone tried to correct his posture he would get all mad and annoyed.
Just band Student “red flags” 😭
Concert Band and Orchestra Double Bassist here, one time I asked my director if she wanted me to hold out the fermata. Never felt more stupid in my entire life. ☠️
one of the trumpet section leaders does the thing in the intro..my guy has no regrets
I just got a new trumpet, also I love your videos.
staccato means short for anyone wondering
No because why do I have the urge to grab my trumpet and do what he did in the intro.
Anyone wondering about the stupid question thing staccato markings are dots above notes that tell to to play them short and separated. So it was dumb to ask to play the smooth and connected
For the last one I thought it was going to be someone pretending to play because they lost track of where everyone was, and that person is me lol
my torso is too long for my baritone and i always forget to get the towels for it to sit on so i have the worst posture 💀
Oir forst chair trumpet has horrible posture but sounds INSANE, hes a senior and he has the best sound ive ever heard
connected staccato is crazy
For the first one was that the dance of the thunderbolts
Our 2nd chair trumpet, the guy who sits beside me, is both the first and second one 😭
When the trumpet player is playing an "invisible" trumpet perfectly
I have half forgot trumpet because they canceled the last 3 weeks of band
Im a sax but i have the worst posture like i be sitting there leaning on my left leg with my elbow to support the weight of the sax because im genuinely too lazy to sit there without breaking my back for once
The staccato question killed my soul
That last one may be me with the violin because I’m scared of being judged by my peers 💀
Those first two is the entire section at my school
the knee is CRAZZY
the fact that there's a jimmy in my band's trumpet section 💀
i tried the 1st clip, it helped alot somehow
No because my band director is constantly yelling at the trumpets and whipping out his trumpet to prove he's better than them 😭
I've been learning to play throne room on my trumpet and it sounds like the first one but with correct posture. 😭
The posture one is so real, but I only have bad posture if I’m practicing at home by myself because I sit on a bed and don’t bother with a music stand.
I play trumpet to, its so much fun
I know trumpet players that all show these traits
Also the last one is kinda me bc at the slightest imperfection in my tone I cringe and stop playing and think I’m super bad lol
Tbf, the second question is kinda valid, at least at the collegiate level.
dude is the reason im good at my trumpet
The second one 😂😅
based first song
I play the flute, but the last one is true for anyone.
how tf did this video get my band's first chair trumpet perfectly
The saxes in my woodwind class always have terrible posture 😭
I suppose that’s a stupid question for trumpets..
It’s a valid question for string players though, since sometimes those markings can be staccato, brush strokes, and more depending on context
Honestly I could only relate to the last one 😂
I tend to downplay myself all the time.
Not gonna lie 😭 that last one is me with the trombone 😭😭 I always forget to take that large and heavy ass thing home so I barely practice anymore, learning all these new songs, and I'm the best one there, and yet in my ears I sound terrible 😭😶
Playing a trumpet is a red flag 🚩
Why do I feel so attacked? 😂
These are literally me, especially that posture-one. That's exactly my posture when practising actually! 😂 Always have been (for over 30 years) and still is.😂
I play the violin and I’m not sure why I’m watching these videos, but they’re good
This is literally all the trumpets in my band class.
