[goodgraphicsdan]

somehow the tempo at play ball didn't seem like 788.

[ultimatechucknorris]

music to my ears :')

[TheNitroBrandon]

what is going on...

[strings29tata]

what the heck am i watching? o__O

[MrGuyDudeHomie]

insert peanuts

[Linkemelee1993]

Only in Colorado. Now I know why my friend (a trombone major with me in college) said Colorado is so different than PA in the Music Conferences!

[UnknownSquid]

So this is (the real) Death Waltz (actually) by John Stump. Or at least some fun elder folks having a good go at it. I've just been browsing through all the UN Owen videos falsely refereed to as Death Waltz, and it's rather annoying.

1) I'm a fan of the UN Owen music, and it's wrong to mis credit it to John and not Zun.

and

2) A fun "composition" as crazy as this deserves to be known properly. It would be great to see more attempts made at it.

It's just generally created needless confusion.

[NitramZiarreh]

I must say that the actual score is A LOT more fun than this "performance".

[MachSpeedMaster]

I came here to watch an almost mere impossible music piece, not a group of people tune a broken instrument.

[OpportunityStrikes]

A literal interpretation of "Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz!" It sounds lovely.

[sasukekakashi1000]

kind of creepy

[TaylaSlushii]

wow, i actually made it thru the whole thing lol

[MowMan7]

i wanted to hear the actual piece. i skipped to 3:50. i wasted my time watching this video.

[WhiteroseOtaku]

WTF

[PurpleFrostingLady]

why are they laughing in the begining? so confused.

[enochwei308]

oh my... that looks fascinating...

[enochwei308]

this is boring....

3:50  uh.......

[2kids1pop]

Awesome video. ...not this one, but the other video I was watching.

[NickTup]

this was so epic!

[Ddeessoolloozz]

I dont get it....O_O

[gibstoper]

im dissapointed



[BioGuelph]

Finally, I’ve waited so long for the true death waltz. It’s beautiful.

[iYuumei]

-goes back to listening to John Stump playing- Ah... sweet relief

[spunkypunkchick]

I don't believe the bicycle was added.

[rpie1382]

@Zfortsniff I believe it was suppose to be balance on two legs. Or so it says on the music. I may be wrong.

[Blazeman1999]

0_0 wtf is this!?

[tija1012]

xD omg

[TorressssssME]

I'd like to see a version of this with people holding any laughter they might have until AFTER the piece is played.

[iceteaguy]

A masterpiece!

[Fourmalletz]

I used to be able to play this, then i took an arrow to the knee.

[MysticDragons]

wtf..

[SirBrodzik832]

Things get weird when old people act silly.

[2theothers2]

[TrytheGreenOne]

uhhh these guys are just goofing off, the song is actually pretty cool if you can play it

[getlostinmusic42]

i don't get it?

[SirJACthe3rd]

that was wierd...

[mistertestsubject]

the death waltz is unplayable for a good reason. Its ear rape!

[Agent5453]

still unplayable cuz they didn't balance their chair on three legs or release the penguins

[CapnCheezburger]

Still sounds better than Dragonforce.

[LordLastDay]

Best song ever.

[TheJeremiah948]

wow i actually watched the whole thing and they didnt even play it :/

[XAytherxRedictusX]

Omg, master piece. 

[TDPSband]

[gernsey100]

prime example of the Wadsworth Constant

[tazidevl]

DOUBLE WADSWORTH

[indorock]

For the love of god, Wadsworth constant!

[bluntobject07]

Sounds like Zappa. Seriously (and I freakin love Zappa).

[TheBuffalothunder]

[Armen4o]

[TaffyRaphie]

also, who has the balls to actually play this AND record it in 240p

[Sinkes]

My head hurts.

[xGalladeLuigix]

why is the guy wearin a cow hat? o.O

[XxARTISTofWARxX]

WTF. wtf did i just watch.

[znelson710]

What a train wreck of a piece lol Kudos for getting about halfway through hahaha

[avasings4u]

@TheMissKirin ------This is nothing to do with touhou....and U.N. Owen is not the originator of this title.

[megadeathx]

@avasings4u It clearly is not UN Owen, you're completely right about that. I'm pretty sure it's not music nor entertaining either.

[leetfeetman]

@TheMissKirin U.N. Owen was her? was based off of this song also this video looks like it came out before the game did

[analyzingfunny]

a death waltz..how fitting..

[SeikoMiwarui]

Dawww, they forgot about the Wisconsin part on page 2

[ESTebanREB10]

vieja ctm

[Cinemaphobic]

fail

[cuppycakesandzombies]

I love this song...and that person's cow hat xD

[animefreak5855]

Okay, for those of you who want to hear the actual piece, skip the whole video.

[jimjam485]

@animefreak5855 What's that supposed to mean?

[verypen]

"At the M M M M M-" "-M!"

[kingblahblahthe99th]

I agree!

[charvinn]

love that someone actually tried this.

[AlexReynard]

Somewhere, Frank Zappa is giggling.

[sonicherosfan]

Oh, man, did this make my day! :D

[KATT718]

i thought they were going to play death waltz -_-

[cheesehattom]

@KATT718 They did. lol John Stump did not compose that other "Death Waltz". Someone just named it that.

[shugochara78]

@KATT718 that isnt the death waltz, thats un owen was her from touhou.

[ScientistCat]

4:24 "rotate embouchures, oil bow here" WTF?

[seasidekai]

Damn :D

[BattousaiHBr]

i thought this had something to do with touhou lol

[PH34RB]

Amazing rendition of a classic score. 6 stars /5

[TerrarumRaven]

i think its time we all played a game of russian roulette after watching this.

[TerrarumRaven]

i think its time we all played a game of russian roulette after watching this.

the lucky one is the one who gets shot

[codeman38]

Finally, an actual performance of this song and not of "U.N. Owen Was Her".

[yourfilmindustry]

kill me... please... this is awful

[superwild97]

she makes a weird noise when she sells the mute.

[ZeakCao]

My god.

My body was not prepared.

[GheoFabulousDuk]

This is... perfect. In every way.

[Yourvidsucksbad]

Hold on now, I'm not sure I heard any sopranos enter.

[fuffybaby18]

People complaining about the long, unnecessary introduction have obviously never been to a music conference before...

[mobart]

hahaha !!!  This is so wacky I am blown away. You crazy folks.

[XxAkumaxRebornxX]

My ears! They bleed! TT.TT

[kiljoe78]

LOL bravo!

[BombtrackRebel]

Why do they always torture old people with watching weird stuff like this?

[HeavyK3]

Macromeme: Jokes your parents DONT get

[gammatep01]

WTF

[DrSwNemo]

Finally, the actual Death Waltz and not the Cool&Create remix of UN Owen Was Her.

[34rodzilla]

Music is the shorthand of emotion. Tolstoy

[Jacumbrella]

were the bongos tilted?

[Zfortsniff]

Fail! They didn't balance their chairs on three legs! NOR did they release the penguins! jk

[avasings4u]

@Zfortsniff Yes---the chair WAS balanced on three legs (I believe the sax player did it) and the big release of the penguins (actually, stuffed puffins) happened on a catapult contraption that sent the puffins-acting-as-penguins up into the light fixture, breaking it and sending glass down close to the violin. Probably the most exciting part of the whole business.

[ollininvincible]

@avasings4u That's why you use real penguins. They can't fly...

[Tenpennystwocents]

@Zfortsniff It's not a "fail" if there's a small thing left out. If you can do it, one up them. Then, you can say "fail" if you want. You'll still be a jerk, but at least you can back it up.

[kaylenfalse]

This piece distinctly reminds me of warm-up time in a middle school band room.... except it's not as crazy.

[CerebrateHyatt]

Oh! A thought just passed me, I bet Frank Zappa would've gotten a kick out of this.

I don't mean to be so spammy, but really I hope you don't take this off of YouTube. All of you should be proud of bringing such a crazy thing like this to life.

[CerebrateHyatt]

Please don't take this off, this is pretty amusing. Hope to hear other great things from you.

[rbert16000]

Well done, except for the introduction... Way overdone.

I love the glas breaking and they dont miss a beat...

[iamafractal]

@avasings4u you can't just remove this historically important piece!

[illusionmagician]

I'm confused....?

[ImDavidBizar]

I dont get this at all

[EyrieKun]

I didn't see Ronald McDonald there -_-

[qayghjkedc]

this is the best attempt: youtube.com/watch?v=cysRztrR1G­4

[dogpy59]

Unlike lots of other people (who were mad about how it's not even music), I was disappointed about how they did not have real cattle, explosives, or a duck.

[punkkitten63]

I found the score on the floor of my strings room, and was amazed.

[LordPlagus777]

Whuts so funny?

[VolksDragon]

Don't ever take this down!!

[Plafintarr]

It's very brave of you to even attempt this piece. I value that. Though it seemed like you pretty much paused the song whenever you performed one of the required actions.They could have been more smoothly integrated into the note playing. Oh, and I didn't see any penguins. But other than that, thank you for bringing this to the world!

[havok20x]

@avasings4u I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thanks for the laugh!

[VanFitz]

Wonderful! Captured the surreal whimsy of the source material beautifully!

[MsMimi821]

did the hats have anything to do with it?

[tangengot01]

Is she trying to be a stand up comedian?

[RockerTori106]

Okay, so for those of you who want to hear the actual piece and not just hear the woman TALK about it, skip to 3:50.

[Yggdrasil710]

@RockerTori106 thank you

[Syniqal]

@RockerTori106 But the intro speech is half the fun! :p

[Roxyar]

@RockerTori106 Thanks D:

[ml1081801]

0:48 "careful scholarship..." there's a man in a COW SUIT BEHIND YOU.

[MisterKenyah]

@avasings4u

I think that's the last thing you should do. I thought this was an amazing rendition!

[Valkryies]

"Blanco had just finished a stunning performance of the La Merusco Concerto Caruso for E flat Chianti."

I choked on my tea. Oh, musical puns.

[exfb64]

just play the song damn it

[SvirVolgate]

Sounds like Naked City

[shadowlink96]

This is awful. Most music teachers aren't like this.. :)

[VolksDragon]

@shadowlink96 Yeah, but if more WERE like this, they'd get more kids into music. (And secretly, in their own little private worlds, music teachers ARE like this.)

[Ihdreniel]

... this is a dream come true.

[ThePoliceStoleMyCar]

this video needs more text popups not nearly enough I could still make out some of the video footage

[theOnlyHe110]

how did this even get 887 likes...

[Verendus0]

Guys, you inserted the penguins WAY too early.

[CuddlesTheRabbitHTF4]

LOLZ

Half Note = 2bpm

[CuddlesTheRabbitHTF4]

MP3 NAO

[BonSprite]

So they didn't even play deathwaltz?

[acromulent]

@BonSprite

This IS death waltz. Some idiot posted the touhou song as "death waltz" and everyone believed it. Now half the internet thinks touhou is death waltz. This is the real death waltz, a song created as a joke. John Stump has *nothing* to do with the touhou song everyone thinks is "death waltz"... it's very irritating. The song everyone THINKS is death walks is an all piano version of a touhou remix of Flandre Scarlet's theme by Cool&create. Ugh.

[kattenbajsar]

This is so bad... FML

[metaknightftw1]

wtf? wheres the REAL music!?

[benwaddelling]

Just an average sunday at the old folks home

[via39]

im confused...

[sumimimi0]

this is the real version... actually,, a real duck is needed.... this song is basically a joke..

[feanando]

Amazing... Just imagine the future generations watching to this! I can't imagine the kind of comment they will do about this!!

[MsBlablabla123]

Were the annotations killing anyone else?

[avasings4u]

@MsBlablabla123 The annotations are from the actual score. No penguins or cows were harmed in the making of this farce.

[avasings4u]

@MsBlablabla123 The annotations are directly from the score. Sorry to kill you.

[SitOnYouProductions]

@MsBlablabla123 thats why you can disable them

[doubleplusgoodful]

@MsBlablabla123

Yes.

Although I know they are in the score, you don't see films of other ochestras with annotations such as "con moto"

[almostfallen2]

i dont get any of her jokes...

[didemiss]

for some reason i think they aren't playing right.

[Rami22789]

What is this? I don't even....

[orangebhuddy29]

this piece is hanging up in my music teacher's room to scare the living daylights out of everyone

[TheJRDFilms]

@orangebhuddy29 thats wierd cuz its also in my music teachers room and i freaked out when i first saw it
