  • lol stop the video at 0:55

  • my sister plays the bass clarinet aswell. its awesome

  • this is amazing can i please have the notes to the one that plays the lyrics? i want to impress my teacher {im in 8th grade}

  • this is so cool. i am a 6th grader band student and i play the clarinet and my friends sister is beast on this instrument. i always knew a bass clarinet was cool, but never thought it was this cool. WOOOO BASS CLARINET :D

  • I think I just died of happiness.

  • I've been playing bass clarinet for ages now. Lol, I play Bb during marching,but really love Bass Clarinet more. This just makes me love it more.

  • @OfficialPKW9 that's awesome, do you have any videos of you playing it on your channel?

  • @webusecom Sadly no, but I am working on a solo right now.

  • @OfficialPKW9 that's great i would really like to hear that by the way you have an awesome channel the only thing it's still lacking is a jazz version of communication breakdown by led zep i'd love to see that video

  • I've been playing the clarinet for 6 years.

    I asked my teacher if I could try it and I now want to drop clarinet!

    I'M IN LOVE!

  • Lol if my school played this, I'm sure I would probably be the guy with really low notes lol

  • I play bass clarinet...can u show me where u get your music??

  • Cried a little, makes me want to pick up the bass clarinet after 8 years of not touching one. this is amazing.

  • 1) How do you make that squeaky noise?

    2) How high does the bass clarinet go?

  • @Envergure it's called Altisimo. basically, you play above what the instrument is keyed to play by changing your ombichure and your throat. it takes a little while to learn it, it also helps if you can over tone on a clarinet (much harder to do on one than a sax), but i can get to about a double C above the staff and then it sort of fades into squeaks that aren't even close to notes.

  • @richierules5 how do you play the higher notes? i can only play the C and the B

  • Anyone have sheet music to share for this or know where to find it?

  • yea its official...... BASS CLARINET = WIN

  • Probably the greatest thing I've ever heard.

  • Ups most fun for you grammar peeps

  • Yeah I play bass clarinet funest thing ever

  • thumbs up for bass clarinet

  • I love the bass clarinet and this just made me love it even more :D Bass Clarinet's ROCK!!! <3

  • I am extremely lucky... getting to play the bass clarinet in my school band... there are only 2 out of, hmm, how many~~ 200-300 people? Whoa, eh. O.O

  • gee, what was that? the deepest and the highest notes are capable to be produced using a simple quartet of beautiful instrument like these?

  • you make me proud of being a bass clar. ♥

  • THIS WAS one of the BEST things I have had the grace to hear.. WOW. amazing. really

  • @42johnsmith That's so sweet, and your welcome. :)

  • Is that the use of multiphonics/polytones?

  • Where can I get sheet music for this?

  • Oh my god, this is so beautiful!!

  • Vibrato on the clarinet?

  • Anyone know where to find that arrangement??

  • how does he play that high?

  • I heard you guys at Clarinetfest! This is a great cover. Ist he recording balance, as good as it could be, though?

    I will say to everyone, their sound live is absolutely incredible, beautiful. It goes right into your gut!

  • And this is the reason why I love the bass clarinet <3 I listen to these videos every day before I practice, I wish there were more bass clarinet literature for me to listen too but this stuff makes my day, always :)

  • i would love to play like them when i am older and more experienced

  • I just got my bass clarinet yesterday, and I love it :D I wish I could play like these guys.

  • 100 points BASS CLARINET HOUSE!

  • I too play bass clarinet. But I'm not good as you. Congratulations.

  • i cant wait till i can lay like this <3

  • good! is magnific, instrumental piece is magnificent. congratulations!

  • 2:26. I had to change my pants.

  • goosebumps and its 95 degrees here

  • I am loving the melody! Beautifully played. :) Makes me fall in love with my bass clarinet all over again and inspires me to keep playing. I've been a little frustrated with my instrument since the music I find is all usually orchestra related and not as fun to play. I love playing famous pop songs on the bass clarinet. This song and performance inspires me. :)

  • What is the technical name for singing and playing at the same time? And don't say multiphonics. It doesn't quite apply to singing. Multiphonics is the "in between" voicing sound, like when you go for thumb C and hear the extra tone of F under it.

  • @MsContrabassClarinet usually people call it growling... its what ive always heard it to be, and call it. some people do call it multiphonics, but multiphonics are produced differently and arent as rough.

  • just starte playing the bass over my old normal clarinet, this is sooooo cooolll

  • Oh man would you listen to that altissimo D? I swear those are the best throat tones I've heard. OOH eargasm!

  • Why I am a proud owner of this beastly instrument :3

  • This is great. I never heard a bass clarinet solo before.

  • @straightarrow372 Old Grumbly Bear ftw xD

  • @NarutoBoy201 Our band did that song! I loved it, being the only Bass Clarinet! :D

  • ahhhhhhhh i LLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVE­EEEEEEEEEEEE BASS CLARINETTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!! ilov it : 0

  • Anybody know where I could buy sheet music for this arrangement?

  • bass clarinet rocks

  • I am in love with the alto sax...and i hated clarinet. but after hearing the bass clarinet i talked to my band teacher and i switched to bass clarinet! I cant wait to actually be able to play it!

  • no offence but i will forever think that the clarinet will be better than the bass......only because im pro at the clarinet!!!!!

  • C'est superbe!

    

  • i play bass clarinet 2 !!!!!!!!!!

  • LF>SHEET MUSIC

  • @MagnusRush what is LF?

  • @biznock19 LF means Looking for.

  • 6 people are broken reeds.

  • I just got the Bass Clarinet part in my school's junior band, (apparently it's a lot easier than I thought it'd be, all I had to do was ask the conductor haha) and I totally want to learn this song, would be amazing (and perhaps even impressive to the opposite sex...;D)

  • i need these note im addicted to nirvana radiohead and red hot chili peppers, i play clarinet, this made me break out my clarinet and learn this right away, i need to keep playing to learn all the notes,need to wait to get out of 6th grade thow :(

  • How do you produce the didgeridoo-ey sound in the chorus?

  • @AltmmM Sing and play simultaneously :)

  • @AltmmM Yep, what Bagurk93 said. The technical term is "mulltiphonics."

  • thats amazing. one of the men got really high in the upper register and had great tone. i love radiohead and i play bass clarinet....

  • do you have the arrangement for this?

  • I can play a little bit of the main ones part. :D Makes me so happy. I'm sure I'm not getting the notes right, but I'm trying.

  • @TheCobraKidd omg i know you are so awesome lol HEY ERICA!

  • this makes me want to ditch the clarinet for the bass clarinet

  • @pupueye78 DO IT! IT'S AMAZING! :D

  • @pupueye78 Do It!!! It was the best decision i ever made :)

    

  • @pupueye78 i did that ages ago... :)

  • @pupueye78 guess what? YOU CAN! it's the exact same fingerings!

  • @pupueye78 thats exactly what i did

  • @pupueye78 Dude. Do it. I did, and I'm never going back. XD

  • @pupueye78 Do it! I did! And then I ditched the bass for the contra bass.

  • @pupueye78 depends what type of bass clarinet if it sounds better do it!

  • @pupueye78 DO IT!!!!!!

  • @pupueye78 Me too :(

  • i want the music piece

  • thats cool!

    do you know where i can get my hands on sometype of music for this?

    me and my sisters can play this...(:

  • im diggin those multiphonics!! this is amazing.

  • @TheLautner101 Don't ever listen to them

  • does anybody know where i could find this arrangement?

  • what kind of bass clarinets is everyone using im sure not just Bb bass clarinets because Bb instruments can only go down to low concert Db

  • @musicgeek10100 they're all using Bb bass clarinets with low-c extentions, lowest note being a concert Bb

  • New goal in life.

    Fo. Sho.

  • Love it guys!! Used this to show the girl what instrument I play.

  • I think I'll arrange this for my bass clarinet section next year ^-^ If there are any songs anyone wants me to arrange for bass clarinet I would be more then happy to, I have done bond explosive, some disney movies, crazy train, disturbia, and many others. <3 the bass clarinet

  • this guys are my idols.

  • @ilan259 srry i voted down. thought u typed these guys are idiots

  • Comment removed

  • this is the best thing ever. not lying!

    i need to get this arrangement for a performance

  • Oh my god... This was amazing. I hope I can play like this someday!

  • It looks like 5 people's tears accidentally hit the dislike button.

  • WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHH!!!!!!!!!!! THis made me soooooooooo happy :) I wish I had the music for this. We have 4 bass Clarinets at my High school (me Being First Chair) We could totally do this :D I'm so jealous.

  • How the fuck do they get that sound out of some of those high notes? Incredable.

  • I ENVY YOU 4!!!!

  • wow really dis was made in 2007? wow the way they dressed and their hair looks like tha 70s O_o

  • This is amazingggg.

  • buffet crampon at it's finest...minus 1(shoots selmer guy)

  • @venskus2009 Hey hey there... don't be hatin'! :-p I'm stuck on a Selmer right now... it's 12ths are wide and throat tone E is sucktacular, but other than that I can get a lovely tone out of it, and it's a TANK (zero adjustments needed in almost a year of being played, carried, bussed).

  • Bass Clarinet<3

  • One of my favorite songs on my fav instrument. I hope i can play like them someday.

  • This made my day and makes me want to practice harder. I'm going to need a lot more years under my belt, currently have three, to get that good and then I can die happy. BASS CLARINETS RULE and in my school band they totally are saxophones. Not technically but in the fact that Saxes rule the roost and the clarinets are unfortunatly lacking.

  • I've played Bass Clarinet. If I tried to hit that note at 2:42, I would have looked like the guy from Scanners.

  • Comment removed

  • can i buy this sheet music somewhere? this is sooo amazing it makes me love the bass clarinet even more and i would love to play this

  • @rcgeoffrey you just made my day :) thanks

  • This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!!!!!!!

    If any one is up to doing this I will happily join you!!!!!!

    GO BASS CLARINETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @pepsime95 i play this song all the time

  • This song is flipping amazing. It pulls at my heart strings. I love the bass clarinet SO MUCH. Mom says I'm obsessed (to which I have to agree *smiles sheepishly*) but I think it's just too easy to love this instrument. I've been playing it for two years now and I'm so pumped. I'm only a freshie this year so I have a long way to go, but what I do know is bass clarinet is the most epic instrument ever. And it's NOT A FRICKEN SAXOPHONE!!!! :P

  • @MsContrabassClarinet right mate! BASS CLARINET FOREVER!!!!!

  • @MsContrabassClarinet you in gr 10?

    lol ive been playing it in 2 years too ^^

  • @darkkaiser20 grade 9 *blush* the one and only :P

  • You guys are my heroes. Bass clarinet and Radiohead are two of my favorite things.... Thank you so much!

  • One of the coolest things I have ever seen.

  • the bass...=="

  • @sarahhauffen you're kidding right?

  • It was good; but the bass kinda threw me

  • i switched to bari sax and this almost makes me want to switch back to bass clarinet wait a minute it dose

  • Bravissimo! What an excellent ensemble, I would have loved to see it live.

  • geeez i miss band class

  • SWEEEEET!

    I signed in just to leave a comment. I've heard a lot of covers of this song and this is by far one of the most interesting and enjoyable to listen to.

    Thanks for posting.

  • i'll summon the same word that's already been used many times by many to describe this performance : AWESOME! nice choice of material, too. Creep was the perfect showcase to demonstrate the bass clarinet's amazing range. and yeah, love that timbre!!!

  • cornelius is my idol!

  • does anyone know what note the guy doing the doing the multi phonics is playing?

  • simplemente hermoso *_*

  • How do you get that kind of "ring effect" like the person on the left is playing? It is often heard when someone sings, but I want to know how to get it when you play

  • strong attacks but not loud ones and never cut off with the tongue. treat the accents like tiny decrescendos if you catch my drift.

  • you sing and blow at the same time. it takes alot of practice but i got it after a bit.

  • I think you mean Vibrato

  • omg...im so happy right now...i love playing bass clarinet...and finding bass clarinet "rock band" makes me so happy inside..

  • @nuisanceofmylife

    couldn't have said it better

  • @nuisanceofmylife i love playing the bass clarinet too! i switched this sept. and OMG i feel in loooovvvvveeeee. ive been obsessed with it ever since. im one of the top players (like all instruments) in my school.

  • @caseyjonesleonard thats sweet :) i was lucky enough to be among the top players in my band too. i'm hoping to continue on in college and eventually get my own low-c. good luck! its truly an amazing instrument to play.

  • @nuisanceofmylife i agree and i wonder where i could get the arrangement would you agree with me on that

  • @VCBANDBASSCLARINET i do ^^ it would be totally awesome to get together with a bunch of fellow bass clarinetists and peform it..hmmm lol.

  • same here

  • Thats pretty cool, I like Radiohead, and I'm learning bass clarinet :P

  • I dig.

  • Wow, amazing. 5 stars just for the bass clarinet guitar crunches!

  • He's using multi phonics... it's done by singing and playing at the same time

  • Just awesome...

  • Wow!!! This is just one reason we need to keep music programs in public schools. Eargasmic!!!

  • I so agree. Vito Pascucci went to Congress in the 50's to get funding for public schools! Now the REAL Leblanc doesn't exist anymore!

  • does anyone know where i can get the sheet music for this?

  • does anyone know how the guy with the fro is making that rough sound at 1:20??

  • That was great. I miss my job at Leblanc making clarinets.

  • It's incredible! That was... That was ultra mega cool!!!!

  • how are you doing that kind of two tone screamo thing with the bass clarinet

  • Wow, I've never liked the bass, but this is pretty awesome! =D

  • hell yeah for us woodwinds!!! im a bass clarinet and Bb clarinet player. woodwinds are fucking awesome and are the right choice for playing this song

  • im a bass and a regular clarinet player, but im better at bass.

  • gameaddict447 you are so right i am a Bb clarinet player and soon i will star on flute or the bass clarinet:)woodwinds rock and they are the best:)

  • nice low notes

  • This is amazing. Please come to Toronto.
