whoever it was who thought they knew what they were talking about......
the trumpet is a transposing instrument, when a trumpet plays a C it is actually a CONCERT Bb. So, yes, when the lady is talking it is a CONCERT A, but in Bb terms, which is what she was working in (strangely enough as she's a trumpet player) it is most certainly a B natural.
also, look at the fingering - 2nd valve = B nat. Look on any trumpet fingering chart :)
Helium lighter, made the trumpet a whole tone higher. Temperature does too alittle bit. cold windinstruments sound flat(in pitch) and go up when warmed up.
lol a "middle of the night, keep you awake" question. lol, id say if you literally can't sleep because you have this on your mind, i'd say you have some bigger problems to worry about.
To shadowflar3: The reason that the B sounds like A is because the trumpet is normally a transposing instrument (Bb). Her B is indeed sounding concert A.
The note she was playing was the first note of the song which is A by the way, not B as stated. It shifted to B after the helium inhaling though, so it would be cool to hear if the entire orchestra would go one step up after a dose of helium.
How dare you try to give me lessons on musical theory with your intellect. How about you play a B then and compare it to the pitch that is heard on the video. It might even match since your playing skills probably match your knowledge on the subject.
She played a B on a B-Flat Trumpet first. With helium that B raised to a C Sharp. On a B-Flat trumpet.
On a piano (which is ofcourse in C) it would be an A raised to a B when on Helium.
This effect is caused because sound travels 3 times as fast through Helium then through air. (but of course the trumpet and her lungs aren't filled with 100% helium, so the frequency won't raise that much).
The frequency of the note "B" is 440hz * 2^2/12 = ~493.88. This is not what is heard on the video when she says she is playing a "B", rather the frequency matches 440hz, note "A" much better. It's really not so hard to understand and it isn't such big a deal. And piano is NOT limited to any key like brass instruments.
Trumpet is not really limited to certain keys. On a Bb Trumpet, a Bb is sounded when the player plays their written C, whereas on piano, a C is sounded when the player plays a written C. Therefore, the trumpet player's B is indeed a concert A, which is 440hz. Just glad I could contribute to this very interesting thread.
You're right about that part; It's not that hard to understand. So, then why don't you understand? It is a transposing instrument. This particular one is in Bb. She did indeed play a B. If she said Concert B, then you would be right... But she didn't, and you're not.
And you're talking about other peoples intellects? Tsk tsk.
"Concert B" WTF. Notes have the names and they don't change when you change keys of the instrument or composition and GL trying to explain this to other people with terms you just made up. "Trumpet player's B" jesus you guys are the worst.
I'm not suing the girl for her faulty statement, it isn't a big deal. It was some cocky idiot who wanted to try to patrionize me for pointing it out. BTW props on bringing this one up after 10 months.
Lol wow... we made it up? How can you not know what we're talking about? You've never worked with other musicians before, have you? I'm not surprised.
You also have obviously never heard of a transposing instrument before. Go google it and educate yourself. See that we "made it up." Don't embarrass yourself further.
Why don't you check my channel and/or website if you really doubt my musical skills but if you ask me youjust went for a quick insult since you ran out of anything appropriate to say to explain yourself.
FYI, here's how transposing works: You take (lets say) a tin whistle in C and the bottom note / root note is C of course. When you play on a transposed D whistle, the bottom note is higher, thus we call it D even though it is played exactly like the C on C whistle because it's a f***ing D note.
Haha, I don't care how many video game themes you can strum out on ukulele. If you've never heard the term "concert pitch" before, then you don't know too much about music.
A B on a Bb trumpet will sound like an A on piano, a C on that same trumpet will sound like a Bb on the piano, and so on and so fourth.
h t t p : / / cnx. o r g /content/m10672/latest/
There's a nice simple explanation for you. Yes you do take the spaces out in case you don't get that either.
Yes the instrument was in Bb I get it, FFS. REGARDLESS of that it is still faulty to tell the interviewer the note she played was a B when it clearly was an A. Knowing the context it is understandable how she made the mistake but still, it was a mistake. Don't make it into such big a deal.
Since you brought it up, I do know how to play with other people. And when doing so, you can't play your Bb instrument and tell the others you're playing in C like the staff you have reads.
Yeah and just a little while ago these terms were "made up" and in fact not real musical terms. This makes sense now. When you don't understand something you should admit it. Now you have to play the game where you pretend you knew all along, and start arguing different points that still aren't quite right.
Eh, she never told anyone her instrument was playing in C. Maybe you have access to a part of the video the rest of us don't? When you pick another point to argue, it should exist first.
Yeah and to this day, I haven't found any documentation of this "trumpet player's B" so you're welcome to link me to any site using such a term.
My point is and has always been residing on the most simple musical theory there is, the fact that there is a certain pitch that we call a B and that wasn't what we heard on the video. As a trumpet player in a band it is important to know that even though you play your Bb instrument like it was in C, you are actually playing in Bb.
I would like to point out that the 12 year old kids watching couldn't care less. it was for illustration only, which means that your high-flown 'musicality' has served only to embarrass you as you've completely missed the point of a programme intended for children.
As I have said many times before, I didn't make this into a big deal, you and numerous other cocky nerds tried to patronize me by assaulting me and denying something that is essentially a very simple fact. And you guys miss just as much as I do by turning this into a flame war. It takes 2, or in this case me and what, 5 guys(?) to argue. Thanks for joining in, feel free to browse.
...And that's what the sites like the one you linked are for. When you tell others what the note was that you played, you need to tell them what it really was TAKING INTO ACCOUNT your instrument is a transposing one. It is your job to know about your instrument, not all of the other band members / the interviewer / the audience.
When she said B instead of the A she really played, that meant exactly that she didn't know her instrument was in Bb instead of the C that was written in sheet music.
"Trumpet players B" or "his/her B" is not in the dictionary any more than "Your Car" is. That's because to MOST it is common sense.
When a transposing player tells you their note, unless they are PLAYING with you or specify concert pitch, then it is assumed to be "their note". Of course, if you've ever played with transposing musicians before, you would know how all of this works. I don't go to ukulele video's saying your hands are incorrect. LEARN the realm before you go saying it's wrong.
Ha, I've played with god knows what, tin whistle, clarinet, a crazy piper guy that had like all the recorder sizes and keys, bag pipe, uillean pipes you name it. Mostly guitar and keyboards and I can tell you, the guitars have some of the oddest tunings as well and although I recognize all the chords by their hand shape, it is the guitarists job to know what note comes out of the instrument when asked.
You might not stop bugging me but at least don't try to teach your mother how to have babies.
There's no wrong way to play most instruments but saying an A note is a B note is an unquestionable mistake. If she was instructing another trumpet player with reading the sheet music portion where it was probably marked as B (the sheet in C key) then I could understand how she could do that but telling it to the interviewer or another player is just plain stupid and confusing and even more so in this example that we are talking about PITCH in the specific context.
Go ahead and look up some other trumpet videos where they tell you what notes they are playing, the professionals especially. Tell them they are all wrong :)
"There's no wrong way to play most instruments"? I see the problem now: you're stupid lol. No point in me continuing; I don't run a music school for the mentally retarded, you know. Farewell.
Any specific video in mind? I'd be happy to correct them if they're really stupid enough.
Oh how mature but if you want to give up, seeing how big your ego is, I guess that's how you have to go about it. If you need another slap on the face you can PM me anytime.
"I don't run a music school for the mentally retarded" Yeah sorry about that but hey, some day your musical skills may improve and you could try. Just keep off the sane people, they won't buy your BS.
Actually, notes don't really exist. They're a machination of human thought, and are nothing more than changes in the frequency of undulations in air pressure.
Then again, what does exist? All things are more or less abstract but they need to be talked about and that's why man made up names and definitions for them. And it is important not to mix up the definitions like "note A" and "note B" or "poison" and "milk". :)
See older comments: it's from the 1982 animated film "The Snowman". I had to look up the Nightwish version on YouTube, and really wish I hadn't. Truly Awful.
No, the speed of sound in helium is about 970 m/s, whereas in air it's 340 m/s. It's the resonant frequency that is altered; the wavelength is the same.
Sorry, but this is wrong! Single reeded and double reeded woodwind instruments make their sound from the vibration of the reed. Brass make their sound from the lips vibrating together.
The helium might make it a little harder to blow into the instrument perhaps, thus making a change in the pitch.
I reckon this is fake as it would not effect any woodwind instruments; only brass instruments, yet when they were all horrible, the flutes were out of tune also :S, Oh well!
I thought the exact same thing...the accent sounds pretty darned similar too (yes, I realize that David Tennant is Scottish, I'm referring to the accent that the 10th Doctor uses). I don't think the trainers + the skinny build help either.
wow i havent seen this in aaaaages, this is about 3 years old, im actually in this too, im the kid right at the back with the glasses lol, and i was only in the orchestra cos it was an excuse to show off my fender acoustic guitar to my mates, so that paid off....sort of lol, got hamster's autograph too he was a top bloke
Oh but there is a really big difference, not much but clearly hearable. At 2.40 you can hear the original note being played. At 2.51 as the instrument fills up with helium the pitch is bended upward getting higher.
thumbs up if you got nothing nothing but nazi stuff for related videos

Sorry, but this is wrong! Single reeded and double reeded woodwind instruments make their sound from the vibration of the reed. Brass make their sound from the lips vibrating together.
The helium might make it a little harder to blow into the instrument perhaps, thus making a change in the pitch.
I'll get my trumpet and some helium and try it.
lachness11 4 years ago
I reckon this is fake as it would not effect any woodwind instruments; only brass instruments, yet when they were all horrible, the flutes were out of tune also :S, Oh well!

HackyMcKnobKnob 4 years ago
Yes, but they did show the whole ensebmle playing near the start and the flutes and saxophones went out of tune there, for no apparent reason.

There's people with balloons on the other side of the stage, also.

I thought the exact same thing...the accent sounds pretty darned similar too (yes, I realize that David Tennant is Scottish, I'm referring to the accent that the 10th Doctor uses). I don't think the trainers + the skinny build help either.

It's not originally from Nightwish. They just remade it. It's a german song if I'm correct.

Oh but there is a really big difference, not much but clearly hearable. At 2.40 you can hear the original note being played. At 2.51 as the instrument fills up with helium the pitch is bended upward getting higher.

Xenon is not the heaviest. You should try radon, Rn. It's heavier than xenon for sure. So it should make your voice deeper than xenon.

Now they should try it with Xenon which is heavier than helium and oxygen as it makes your voice deeper :)
