"Amazing Grace" in Multiphonics with Tuba

What Happens when the California Band Directors Association locks us in a room full of instruments ALL NIGHT LONG? We do stupid stuff, that's what.

Stuff like this!

Conner Habib experiments with multiphonics by throat singing while playing the tuba to produce a very odd version of this classic song. Accompanied by Jason Cruz on the parade drum.

@GHIIIGNT It's not hard to sing into the instrument while playing. What is really hard is playing two notes without singing into the instrument. It's possible to get your top and bottom lips buzzing differently. Usually, it happens accidentally.

@ihateall95 Nah he's using multiphonics, that's when you can sing a note will playing another or the same note on an instrument. It takes a lot of talent to do, and this guy that a fair job at it. I still can't do it (yes again I'm a classical guitar layer who loves brass instrument.) so to see that is just pretty impressing.
