Knowing that if you make a mistake or sound terrible, loads of people who didnt want to hear you to begin with will notice and that there is no way to play quieter unless you fork out more than for the instrument itself for a mute.

As a Finn, I laughed out loud when I heard what piece you're going to play. This is because there is (albeit not very well known) gag in Finland that "even the triangle player in Finlandia is important", it is actually quite an important moment in that piece. Finlandia has a very special place in Finnish culture, and you are expected not to play anything after it.

My percussion teacher once told me of the story of a famous journalist (can't remember who it was) who was known for doing tons of crazy stuff, and he convinced Leonard Bernstein, one of the most famous conductors ever, to let him play triangle in the New York Philharmonic, one of the most famous orchestras ever, for a story. He would later go on record saying that experience was one of the most stressful things he ever did. Percussion ain't easy. A lot of people think that it's just hitting stuff with sticks, but it takes years of training to be a good percussionist.

As a percussionist and (hopefully) future professional musician, i can confirm that even just one note on a percussion Instrument feels like a possible death sentence as soon as you are in a top orchestra. I´ve been there myself very often were just one note or a small and easy passage made my fingers sweat more than ever and shake so that i almost missed them because i couldt hit the instrument properly (even after a lot of experience in orchestras). Btw the scariest of them all is when the conductor stops for you and just the whole orchestra(sometimes up to 70 people) just look at you. Myself ones missed a very loud and important Cymbal part in a very very famous and good orchestra in germany and the conductor(also very famous) stopped and looked at me but didnbt say anything. That killed my confidence so violent that i just gave this part to my lecturer so he would do it.

As someone with a lot of triangle experience in a concert band it can be very stressful. One wrong note and everyone can hear it. It is an extremely difficult instrument and requires perfect technique. Beautiful job.

I'm nowhere near professional but i play bassoon and seeing those two ladies made me so happy. I genuinely think I'm the only bassoonist in high school in my county and its so nice to see other people playing it. (also very well played Max, single notes are the hardest ones to play)

Thank you, Max, for showing everyone that a person can achieve anything if they want it and work on it. Honestly, your channel always teaches me that and not only that: most of your videos (for me) are about moving the boundaries of our own "no, you can't do that in this place" and challenging ourselves in a good way.

oh i love finlandia so much, its such a powerful piece to hear performed live with an orchestra
@brennengrimes
Жыл бұрын
Love the piece "Finlandia"! As a percussionist myself, congrats for getting those notes down. Even though a triangle is a simple instrument, its difficult to overcome all the nerves when performing and (especially for a nonmusician) to get the timing precise as it needs to be, and it sticks out the whole audience will hear it so if you play it incorrectly, everyone will notice. I noticed you were holding the bass drum mallets in the video at 8:26 . Were you playing that part as well where it rolls? You were holding them correctly so I'm a little shocked that you knew that, unless the dude also trained you how to roll properly on the bass drum that you didn't show or you lied about having experience as a percussionist lol.

edit: i noticed the screen thats in front of you, which isnt common to see at all. Is that there to dampen your sound on the bass drum to blend better with the orchestra since you're inexperienced and dont know how to blend?

There is a reason Triangle wasn't on that list of easiest instruments to learn, percussion is honestly kinda hard. I am primarily a mallet percussionist but occasionally I do regular percussion and with both you have to do a lot of counting, and it can be very stressful trying to find an opening and even if you are a bit too early EVERYONE will know. So triangle, or any of the other hitty bits, can be very difficult at times.

Abel got the idea of inventing the suspended bass drum stand when he and a fellow percussionist were playing a bass drum while carrying it through the back of the Academy of Music in Philadelphia. I've actually seen some old rubber bands from Abel's old prototypes in my lesson room!
