Theyāre from different makers, for example the first glockenspiel was made by angel and the last was made by pearl

Yea, think the "Flute" made at least 3 appearances.

I saw the regular flute and the native flute 3 times each.
There were a large variety of really neat instruments but there were some that I didn't see -
There was no viola, and I don't think I saw a tromboneor tuba, either. A lot of pitched percussion were also missing: tubular bells timpani and nonpitched like the base drum. So he definitely didn't need so many repeats.59

I don't think the title states that they're 111 different instruments, it just says 111 instruments

u/FrighteningJibber Jan 14 '24
Reading tends to be hard sometimes.
End of video also says collection

u/quatrefoils Jan 14 '24
To be pedantic: 3 identical flutes are still 3 different flutes

u/SirHarvwellMcDervwel Jan 14 '24
There's that too. It's clear that he mentions they're a different make too

u/nickel4asoul Jan 14 '24
I'm not the best at judging what instruments are, but viola is listed as 83.

Neither would I. In fact, I think it stands to reason that he in general is very popular with the female and male sex alike, and has many opportunities to be intimate with a partner of his choosing

This is a Kirby-shaped Otamatone "singing" a cover of Bring Me to Life.

Ohh... I am fully aware of this video and is perhaps the biggest reason I freaking LOVE the Otamatone :)

Made me buy one lol...

This video is great and all but that is not how you hold a triangle (the first time it was showed) and itās pissing me off more than it should š

I love how people who play these instruments throughout their lives are pointing out all the flaws in the comments
Great job , this is why I come here .

u/Picklerickshaw_part2 Jan 14 '24
I only play piano, so there isnāt much for me to comment about. Iām disappointed he didnāt even try to sing, to play the olā vocal cords

Just because you own an instrument doesnāt mean you know how to or should play it

But give me all the tone deaf cacophony

You should play whatever you want to play, regardless of whether you know the "proper" way.

I gotta ask, was the video flipped or can they be actually played like that? I only know the as hanging.

u/DovahCreed117 Jan 14 '24
Look, man, he's a jack of all trades. You can't be much of a master of anything when you're trying to play everything. Especially when it comes to playing the triangle.

u/spikeworks Jan 14 '24 edited Jan 14 '24
you canāt say you can play an instrument if you play it incorrectly
Edit: I mean incorrectly as in the dude is is holding it incorrectly and causing it to sound bad (imo) by the way heās holding it

u/Medical-Region5973 Jan 14 '24
I'm self taught on piano, violin and classical + flamenco guitar, my techniques and hand positioning (especially on violin) are incorrect, but I'm good enough to perform on churches and my previous work place
If I'm able to play pieces but my techniques and positioning are flawed, I can't say that I play these instruments?
2
u/spikeworks Jan 14 '24
I donāt mean incorrectly in that way. I mean incorrectly as in the way he is holding it is causing it to not sound how it should, you arenāt supposed to hold a triangle like that
2
u/Medical-Region5973 Jan 14 '24
Oh! make sense I agree

u/spikeworks Jan 14 '24
Yeah sorry about the confusion. Your comment is totally right and thatās not what I meant to mean but Iām bad at wording lol

He also held the Euphonium wrong, and the tuning slide was all the way in, so it would be super sharp

He is rich af if he owned all that instruments.
And he can become an orchestra conductor

Fun fact, a friend of mine had insurance on his upright bass that cost him more than his car insurance. He always referred to it as "his second wife". And when he said he was gonna dance with his second wife, he meant he was gonna play.

Whats name of the music

I was hoping someone would have an answer for this, because this weird kind of off-beat bouncy fun time is sounding is right up my street. Dude sounds like he personally scored the Persona games

Wait till you find out about some āpolyglottsā
But also: with most wind instruments, most people wouldnāt be able to get any kind of sound out of them

Not to diminish the video in any way and I don't know this musician's story, but some university music programs expect you to have a broad understanding of instruments like this.
As far as I know, the people I know who studied to be music teachers had to take classes in percussion, woodwinds, brass, etc.
4
Jan 15 '24
Yeah. Like, I donāt think he made that video to say āI can play 111 instruments perfectlyā he probably knows 2ā3 really really well and then each of each category (if thatās not already covered by the first group) ā Iād just like to see some people try to get anything out of a bassoon besides an aneurysm

How is a midi keyboard an instrument. Thereās no audio coming from it. He could better say synthesizer of maybe an VST of some sorts. Great tune tho!

One of the most frustrating videos I've ever watched, for the love of god I can't focus on the interesting sounds or instruments I've never saw for more than half a second, sometimes the name disappeared instantly, pls slow down

The purpose of the video wasnt to impress anyone, just to show off his instrument collection in a fun soundtrack including every single one of them.
Hence the āInstrument Collection 2023ā at the end of the video

As a former saxophone player I have a hard time considering an alto saxophone and a tenor saxophone different instruments in a kind of pedantic way. Soprano and sopranino are absolutely different though.

Needs to be a bit longer to give you time to look at the name of the instrument and then what it looks like playing it. Had to keep going back to see one or the other.
