Young french horn player and his joker sister

[ultimategame6330]

It's pretty good. work on your note accuracy the dynamics and play in tune

[ultimategame6330]

Wait I only heard the beginning sorry but way to low u should hear my band teacher play this he's epic on the French horn

[ultimategame6330]

Fake I play the French horn my band teacher played the highest note possible on a horn and it was a lot lower than that!

[felixkrampf]

sounds good....more air and you are a little out of tune...than it's perfect and rhythm



[yankees3022]

sounds good

[MJfan421]

That was pretty good! I love french horn, and have only just got a reasonable sound. You were really great for your age, but just as my opinion as a fellow hornist, you could try to play expressivo (expressively) to improve the quality of your sound. Keep up the fantastic work! :)

[alopez568]

u suck



[rockgor]

Very nice job. Do you know how long your horn is? Dennis Brain said

from 8 to 18 feet.

Your sister was very helpful, wasn't she?

Thanks for the post.

[xd24kiler]

u have to study more..... but good try kid

[lakerfuffle]

Great! Keep playing; it will reward you! Improving on the French Horn gives you a great feeling!

[jorifilms]

wow ur almost better than me great job i cant wait to see when ur at a higher level

[princessgonchar]

That was impressive. I've been playing the French Horn

for a while and he still sounds better then me... It was really good.

[TheHarryPotterIsCool]

YAY FRENCH HORNS! THEY RULE!!!

[minecraftlegend579]

@TheHarryPotterIsCool I agree!!!!!!!!!

[kimkibumkey231]

Ur really good! I just started horn after 2 years if trumpet and I'm awesome I even Have a solo I The titanic

[shmorgs717]

pretty good for how young he is. tell him to go into marching band when he's in highschool. ill be a sophmore next year and marching band was honestly the best thing i did all year. i cant wait till it starts up again this summer. if this guy really likes music he'll love it. keep up with it.

[Jamaicancane]

Godd attemt for a little guy :-D

[VincentGilShow]

dude your like better then the horns at my school!

[aguylovesme]

He is vary good, but I could that song, even only with 2 years of playing.

[TheJoemama669]

little flat but great overall keep up the god work........youll go far kid ;)

[leoarg92heavy]

LORD OF THE RINGS !!!!!

[Peilai2]

Good good. Some breathing exercises will help with the lower notes and some weight training will help build the heart and lungs which will make better use of your Oxygen use. :)

[lilopantheist]

better than i could ever do...!!! >< i don't understand brass instruments period.

[TRANFOGOSO]

lol this is nostalgic for me i remember when i started with french horn i was 11 :P and talking about video its a really good playing :D! keep doing

[godservan]

good

[allenclark20]

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. I'm sure this video is quite old now and you've learned how phrasing works, but if you're this good with an antsy sister in the background and a video camera in your face, I encourage you to stay with it. Great career opportunities involved with playing the horn. And even just for fun as beautiful as this instrument sounds. Best of luck to you my friend. Regards to your sis as well.

[nuggetking1012]

3 people, hate Lord Of the Rings music.

that was VERY good. Keep it up dude, i made 2nd chair in region band in 7th grade. I bet you can do the same, or better.

[uofi12345666]

I can't believe people are commenting and saying critical things to this boy. He is excellent for his age, and that's what we all sounded like starting out.  Who cares if he's flat? He's 10! Most 10-year-olds can't even make a sound come out of a french horn, much less play lord of the rings.

French horn is one the hardest instrument to keep in tune, and he's doing great considering his choice of instrument.

I know this is a late comment, but keep it up kid :)

[mbc22488]

This is excellent playing!

[liteshark]

well.i dunno why people wanna post their vids at youtube.go get urself a proper recital or do you feel more comfortable/secure facing a video camera?

[sphinxofthenewage]

nice.

[flyingfroggy8910]

i started palying when i was eight and by the age of 10 i was quite a bit better, sorry, i do practice quite a lot though, i am 12 and am taking grade 5/6 soon! wish me luck!

[Bozeman42]

Keep it up!  Best instrument ever!

[corascantcustoms99]

he was flat. do u have a tuner? let him use it if u do and hed sound way better

[Klaytonschaeferrrr]

This is awesome i ahve played since october and i am always inspired to keep going when i see talent like this

[nikkifridley95]

i play the french horn 2....its a beautiful instrument....

[blackrose15237]

Really nice job. You sound way better than I did when I first started, and i was much older. :D

[tinkerbelrck]

wow that kids really good!

[Speedskater132]

hey keep up the good work i started the end of last year and i got good but dont stick you hand to far in the bell or it will mess up the pitch trust me but the french horn is a good chose and if you keep up yyou might become one of the best in the world

[horsegerbil]

Not bad! :D Keep up the good work!

French horns are awesome. You picked the best instrument. haha. :D

[Butterz8]

Hah, I'm pretty sure I did NOT sound that good at that age. Make sure he never gives it up! He will go a long way.

[Fluteperson01]

hey good jog dont forget to shove that hand in the bell and dont forget to hear your pitch while you are playing it so you can hit the pitches with out fracking

[FrenchHornMaster3125]

Great Work!

You may even be a an All State Player one day!

[44jesusfreak4]

very nice i dont know the song haha but i've been playing for three years and all i can tell you is to keep your tongue at the bottom of your mouth but reallly awesome

[WatchinVide0]

i just started at 15 (lol i am still 15)

but you are great!!!

[MsLadyGaGaRecords]

not to disapoint u but i played that same song im front of a judge and if u stick with it.... u will get far... i got gold medal and so can you ;D

[bandnerd6260606]

OMG Im 16 and I play Horn. You sound amazing for your age, I hope that you keep playing for like your whole life :) You will become something great!

[neoprotwo]

OMG im 18 and play french horn. iF you stick with french horn your playing will go very far

[MonDieuable]

Lol o-o

But his mouthpiece looks rather large.

[itsachilles]

that would sound awesome triple tounged XD

[legoackbar]

I play about that good I really need to improve for my age level

[TheMrBaritone]

Take it all the way to mordor bro!

[matthewfults]

i do agree that you need to tune your instrament before you practicing otherwise you get the wrong pitches stuck in your head for your performance. also one thing my band director is also pushing into our heads is to hold a note full value. on quarter notes you need to hol them till where they end you cant change them into eighth notes. other than that nice job

[Dannycrashtest]

Nice work...As a fellow fench hornest I would say that you need to tuned your instument before hand and clean it out.... and one last thing work on your tone,

Other then that you are realy good and should keep it up

[beritoneplayer]

your pretty good keep it up and i wish i could play french horn but alas im stuck with my baritone but you kno what baritone is fun as well xD

[nohface]

you're already better then half of the mellophones/french horns of my highschool XDDD

[hwncan]

@nohface Lol same here

[veggiemama78]

Sounds nice! It's nice to see young kids having fun playing their band instrument!

[smlyon2009]

Not bad kid! You have a good tone in there. I play trumpet, horn, baritone, and some tuba. Just keep it up! with alot of practice and the right tutor you can do great!

[TheTurtlezilla]

dude your pretty good! im 12 (around your age i think) and i can play that song too. Actually i think we have the same songbook. I'll try and post me playing soon. Btw the reason you are flat is that your you are sticking your hand to far in the bell. KEEP ON PLAYIN!

[hitman8djr]

I'm impressed that you can see that. For all you know, his main tuning slide is too far out...

[tomdowns132]

@hitman8djr

he's sharp buddy. It's his right and that's getting him.

[mychemfan99]

you have a wonderful sound but u sound kinda flat.other than the it sounds amazing and keep playing. your going to go along way

[TIAPETTIT2012]

uhm, no, he's definately sharp not flat.

[mychemfan99]

i meant by flat there was no phrasing,it was just flate,nothing really popped out at me

[TIAPETTIT2012]

oh hahaha my bad.

[techkrill]

Very smooth and musical, especially for your age. A more consistant and warm tone will simply come with experience... Keep up the great work. The counting and rhythm really impressed me. :)

[JokinJoe]

Oh my fucking God people, stop acting like you know ANYTHING about playing a horn. The kid is good.

[Hornplaya123]

wow pretty bad but ok for your age. im twelve play for the Ga symphonic band go horn! work on your embouchure and blow enough air for the high notes. DONt puff those cheeks.

[ayely6764]

u rock i suck an im 12

[JustRealizex3]

That's amazing for his age.

[Nipponkoku]

AMAZING for his age. Great playing. Bravo!

[sorafhorn]

i am a freshmen french horn player, keep it up and try and get a less harsh sound play as if you were delecatley carresing the horn. don't put anypressure on your ambessure and let all the work come from you lip

[loopylogloopy]

dude that has to be the best comment i have seen on french horn i am 18 and have been playing sence i was 5 and you are totally right

[sorafhorn]

why thank you

:D

i have been playing since i was 11 ha

[JokinJoe]

It would be great if you knew how to spell "embouchure".

[hiperson59811]

wow really flat in the beginnning

[LazyDaMammoth]

ya thats some pretty good playing!! With your emboshure try not to puff out your cheeks. Emphasis the cresendos and decrsendos. If there any accents bring them out but it sounds like a legato peice all the way through so there probably aren't any.

[EpiSos12]

Hey nice man, I just started up the french horn like a month ago. You're pretty good.

[xoxturtl3xox]

can you send me that sheet music? greta job by the way:)

[rileyjames09]

awesome!

[ComradeSephiroth]

"When the cold of winter comes,

I can hear your name."

[ilovetosing10]

[gmercadert]

[gmercadert]

[gmercadert]

Thank you! Marc is ten years old, he started to play horn at eight.

[jameshornplayer]

you play well but you need to work on your tuning and remember be passionate and like what you play, be confident!

[matthewfults]
