[LizzyIsOut]

Wow. Why havent i seen this?!

[benoitdrums1996]

I will do this next year at my school I cant waiitt

[Music1Comp]

Me and my friend learned this one for solo/ensemble last year then played it for our senior recital this year. It was definitely nowhere near as good as these guys!

[ewfefe]

[Kazemio]

that is INSANE!!!! ...i luv it oh soo much :3

[otigobo]

Oooohhh!!!  :D

[Tengent]

Anyone else find this profoundly erotic?

[MithraMusic]

@Tengent I'm glad I'm not the first one to say it XD

[thewindsofsong]

watching this after marimba lady healed my soul....

[johnnyzing]

Ah yes....totally love the show biz entertainment factor along with the fine touch both of you have on the marimba. Tops to the max. Such a treat. John-Hans Melcher

[thecoolinator007]

I could do that by myself. ;D

[carlospercusionoboe]

Grande¡¡

[BeautifullyTwisted]

That amazing! WoW.

[MariusRocknroll]

Great!!!

[Jorickhoofd]

Brilliant!

[MarchingMaximous]

Does anyone know if the sheet music for this is available?

[eiarain]

AWSOME!!!!

[aminmontrose]

I'd love to watch them make-out.

[mekoborracho]

jajaja se racsta el traseroo

[zednelly]

where can i get the music for this?

[TravisProductions]

i loved how the guy picked a wedgie

[jazzweston1]

I've been playing the xylophone for 25 years and I don't remember ever trying to play the instrument from the opposite side. It's probably extremely difficult. I'll give it a try and let you know!

[Classical8Finatic]

lol it's hard... lol i've tried it... though it's not too difficult to play piano upside down

[Basalisk172]

you someone who's played for so long should know it's called a marima

[Basalisk172]

especially someone who's played as long as should know it's a marimba

[candlewick163]

It's just a crowd thing to make a show out of the performance because most people can't sit there and be entertained by the music itself usually if they aren't a musician. It is a fun little thing though. Just xylophone or mallets in general?

[BreezeGale]

lol

It's pretty cool play!

[songlover99]

Cool,

And Cool, a white person with cornrows.

[Arjanetje]

Wow! That's amazing!

Does anyone know where I can buy this music?

[DCdrummer205]

lol me and my friend greg morales are working on learnng this every day in band study hall.. illl post the vid when we get it down perfect hopefully sooon.

[Classical8Finatic]

Me and my friend savannah are going to get the music and do it too! lol

[bighairywilly01]

That was actually the tits.

Can anyone tell me where to get the music for this?

[PErcuxTionZ]

zomg. FTW :D

[thath09]

this is arranged by Max Leth

[ivanha1]

someone just got a new rigntone

[Jorfer88]

This is the most amazing percussion performance I have ever seen if not the most amazing instrumental performance ever...the speed and precision...wow...as a mallet player I can definitely appreciate the talent here

[ironDsteele]

OMG!! This is sick!!

[ponzii1]

THE BEST =33

FAVORITOO * ^^

[x3mMark0]

THIS IS THE BEST

!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MoonlitKeys]

OH MY GOD!

THEY'RE SOO GOOD!

ha ha ha

i love the ending.

[sitarguitar1979]

I was gonna watch this until I saw the hebrew writing. I can't support musicians that have Palestinian blood on their hands.. tsk tsk. Shame on them

[porter4]

Sitarguitar, you have American blood on YOUR hands for 9-11 and a million other cowardly acts of terror. Take your islam somewhere else.

[stupidjuvie101]

WOOOOOAHHH. effin amazin

[andreamoboe]

wow! that was awesome!

[damianwrx]

These 2 are complete ANIMALS. My god.. their technique. This is harder than playing it on the piano. (Try moving your hands that fast and precise)

[Arav7eeX]

Oh my god.

That was fucking amazing.

[percuser]

ARE YOU CRAZY?  VERY NICE

[Xocus1326]

this sucks...and so do corn rows

[evilrabbitLinda]

You can actually do this on your own (that is soooo difficult), but well... not like that :) It's awesome!

[mdoub]

why can't just one person do that

[Nielspercussion]

why the hell do you ask that?? If you think you can do this alone, then, show it!

[luck4fuck]

unlike piano u hav 10 FINGERS to hit the keys. but for marimba u hav only 4 ARMS to use

[Drummer2004]

lol luck4fuck, "unlike piano you have 10 FINGERS to hit the keys. but for marimba you have only 4 ARMS to use"??

If you have 4 arms, why haven't I heard of you yet? You could be the best marimba player out there!

[sharkseatchainmail]

haha

[candlewick163]

This song is incredibly easy to play on piano. It's really fun though. It's really hard for marimba haha.

[MrSupaplex]

@candlewick163

what are you talking about??? it took me months to learn on piano!!!

[candlewick163]

@MrSupaplex It depends upon a couple things. For me it was easy, but that's probably because I've been studying piano for 11 years now. Also, it may vary on difficulty from arrangement to arrangement. I lost my music (I just remember it) a while ago so I forget if I had an arrangement or the original.

[antononly]

lol what planet are you from luck? see here most people only have 2 ARMS LOL

[girlonlaptop]

love it love it

[jamesjoycebr]

Fantastic.

[DCIbeans]

these guys are wat i like 2 call..... BEASTS!!!!

[ReeseCup077]

DANG!!! u guys r crazy good!!!!

[barkustheman]

holy shit that was amazing

[Torgrim93]

lovely!

[JaimeReyes]

most amazing thing ever!!

[marco25mx]

..............wow

[JoanTerrell]

you guys are something else....

to play that fast moving around on one marimba is unreal...especially when you have another marimba that one of you could be on.

How long did it take to get that together?

Great job!!!

[Ooshbala]

HOLY SHIT!

[uponmomstooth]

wow... thats like a never ending run. AND they use technique!!! While still playing fast....

[Jorfer88]

LOL...their hands are moving too fast for me to see if they are using proper technique

[stacyandjulie]

awesome performance!!

[SiolentH]

ahaha that was funny when they went around o the other side of the keyboard XD that was interesting. most people say people who can play fast are awsome, but these guys dont just play fast, their technique is completely amazing too. so cool! id love to see them live

[bglindrums]

cool!!!

[RachelHulen]

Is there somewhere I can get the sheet music for this duet? It is way awesome! We might have to play with this and see what we can do! (Except for the weggie part, maybe we'll leave that out. :D )

Very much appreciated, by the way, your performance. It is one thing to stand there and play a piece of music and be done with it. It is quite another level to PERFORM!

[g0u812]

I think the guy who wrote this version's last name is Leth. It's really nice. Greg

[los802000]

Max Leth

[editionsvitzer]

you bet;)

[ManlySlut]

Very nice performance.

[Alincisha]

Wow!! amazing!!

[meeeluv93]

wow :D!

entertaining 10 stars!

[agatak508]

So amazing:)I love this instument,it sounds splendidly, I can listen it all the time- beautifull!

[RDog4484]

holy shit.

that's all i have to say.

[SergeantxFroggy]

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaame that was sick.

[swimgirlsub111]

that was sickly. wow!

[superlox3]

Amazing. This is defenitely one of my favorite instruments to hear Flight of the Bumblebee on!

[cultivatedmasochist]

My ears just orgasmed.

Wonderful work.

[dancemastah44]

same here. Talent like that is rare to hear and is the gourmet of listening experiences...!

[derrik203]

look at 0:52

[dancemastah44]

Yeah yeah props to the Israelis (I know cuz I speak Hebrew and the title sign that popped up was in Hebrew)!! Shit that piece is so Fuckin' hard, I think I'd pee in my pants from fright if I looked at the sheet music. MADDDDDDDDDDDDD props to the two musical heroes daring and bold enough to try and play this on the marimba and succeed!!!!!

[KAYLINXZOMFG]

Holy shit man. I wish I could play like that.

[mishadelarge]

they're even more amazing live, I just love them

[guitarjc]

Absolutley amazing. Great musicianship, great technical ability. How that stayed synchronised I will never know. A*

[cronos225]

...omfg that was the coolest thing i have ever seen EVER not only are they able to play flight of the bumblbee which would be CRAZY hard on marimba they can play it ONE HANDED BACKWARDS...i want to be just like them

[sistinewonder]

Either they have bionic arms or they're robots completely. My wrists would have melted after the 3rd measure. That was amazing!

[sharkseatchainmail]

once you get the sticking down its not too awefull hard, but these guys owned it i give them MAAADDD props, lol

[Supernerd98]

amazing, but at :51 the guy scratches his head, then the other guy looks to make sure noone is looking then picks a huge wedgie!!

[WWVY2008]

Oh, I missed that.

[mishadelarge]

that's on purpose >>

they do it every concert

[zamochi]

lmao 0:51

[jllprpl]

way cool

[BlissfulPsychosis]

Did...Did that guy with the short hair...Just pick a wedgie in the middle of the song?

[pelhayek]

That must've been one irritating wedgie.

[brenfen]

LMFAO!

[TheElementWithin]

I think he was showing off talent and trying to be funny at the same time. They both were doing things like scratching their heads and stuff while still playing with one mallet.

[dancemastah44]

He was doing it on purpose, to show how good he was (he could pick a wedgie and still stay in time)!

[stephysjs1990]

tht was in reply 2 timpanimike btw...who thinks "Yeah, I'm pretty sure there are 6-year-olds in Korea who can play this shit faster than these "musicians" "

[ianuus]

....I would like to see someone trying to do this thing by using 4-mallet.... >.>

[tubakerry]

Amazing!

[senorhousemouse]

It's a shame there aren't more instruments that lend themselves to duet performances like this one.

[drumfen]

I like it :)

[elisa13]

wow!!!

[itsnotwhylah]

that's cool :]

[mercedesfanatic]

It is exactly pieces and choreography such as those that brought the marimba to its respected position as an orchestral and solo instrument today. All joking aside, great performance!

[doritosbill]

you guys play really well, but it`s silly...

[pelhayek]

I think i just shit myself

[rolphy5]

speechless

they deserve a global peace prize

[cwflad]

O....MY....GOD....That was the most amazing marimba playing i have ever seen! i have to watch it again.

[DemonicAngels]

Oh my GOD!!!!

This is freakin' amazing! I've never seen this much talent in my entire life! People think I'm a good marimba player, but I am nowhere NEAR that talented.

[soccerin22]

I've tried playing upside down on a marimba, that is difficult, these guys are awesome! And Jewish!

[dancemastah44]

Yes, they are- JEW PRIDE!!!!!!!

[sharon4773]

bwaha!

jews rule

(and no not racist 1 bit becuz in fact i AM a jew)

and ya

rofl

this next part might sound racist tho

the jews mormans and asians r the best at music!

*not always just mostly and im not saying no one else is good at music cuz that is DEF not true*

[eastandwestwind]

Yeah, 52 sec is funny

[torongin]

Very nice but at 52 sec he had get his pants off his crack....he he he

[japanimaniacs]

i think that was his way of showing off and that it was so easy he could do stuff like that while playing. lol idk tho

[jennkaren]

at 52 seconds, watch the player on the left VERY carefully.

[LaTeRaLuSeYeS]

hahaha!!... i know.. i mean who does that on national television? lmao.... he practically tries to play it off...

[elevatorxmuzik]

It was a joke.

[LaTeRaLuSeYeS]

really?..... O.O

idk... =D

[LaTeRaLuSeYeS]

its still funny anyway!

XD haha

[DrmlnMan]

how do you get the music for this?!?

[felipedjg]

You buy it.

[malineck]

very nice idea !

perfect performed!

[handsdown4dBEATLES]

now that's cool!

But I still find piano more interesting. :D

[LouisianaGatorGirl]

Amazing malletwork! You guys rock! Five stars!

[marimbamas]

amazing, how can they play reveresed?!

[dancemastah44]

lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of practice!!

lolz

[larry12345]

they look more like clowns ... =.=

[timpanimike]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure there are 6-year-olds in Korea who can play this shit faster than these "musicians"

[elevatorxmuzik]

haha [:

[MadCoSnareLine]

keep to the timpani....

[marimbaman3000]

hey, these guys are amazing! keep to the timpani? come on now!

[stephysjs1990]

hahaha...no! wat the hell r u on!!! this is incredible and if u can't diy then i dnt think u can critisise it now can u! u obviously dnt play an instrument otherwise you'd be able to appreciate how hard playing tht fast is! knobcheese...

[bellyeye]

bet they're rubbish at snooker

[lemonchicken41]

Haha

Hahahahahahahahaha

ZING. =D

[jovencito80]

They are amazing! Does anybody know where I could find their CDs???

[mossman8390]

[bubbajames2008]

amazing

[vandertop2]

Good you see Percadu on here.
