Hit me up with music questions too!

Ooh cool! I play Clarinet :D but I just started last December, and I havent been playing a lot on quarantine ;-;. I’m trying to work on the high notes, because right now I can only play up to A ;-;

You play Trumpet, right?

Nice! And yes, I do! Along with French horn and a bit of piano, and I'm going to learn ukelele soon. And yeah, high notes are hard, but you'll get there, don't worry!

Thx! I do know a little ukulele, but I haven’t played it, in like, a year lol.

Haha, yeah. That's okay. Always time to pick it back up again, right;)

Yea :)

THIS IS MY ELEMENT! IVE PLAYED PIANO SINCE I WAS 6, I PLAYED OBOE FOR A FEW YEARS, I SING, AND I STARTED TO LEARN GUITAR WITH MY DAD!

°_°

hmm. i was planning to play trumpet when i got into jr high buuuuuttt the "u know what" happened

Oh, oof. I hope you can eventually anyways!!

me too. my dads a band director for trumpet so IM LUCKY!! *smiles big*

Nice!!! You are really lucky. I think I know what the u know what is, but why'd that stop you from playing trumpet?

cause we have to go the the band hall and we cant rn sooooo. yeah.

Ohhhhhhh makes sense

yeah. but on the bright side, i HAVE to get my music lessons from my dad *evil laughter*

Haha, yes, you do. And I can tell you a few things if you'd like on here...

oooh! noice!

I used to play clarinet but I switched to saxophone right before spring break, so I am no good.

I play the violin, if that counts as a band instrument. If not, then we need an orchestra teacher.

We do need an orchestra teacher, but I'll include you in the band:)

Okay, thanks. Maybe I have some fellow strings players who can form an orchestra.

Hopefully!

Ye.

I also sing.

Yay!! Me too, but I think someone else did a singing teacher.

Okay!

:)

Yeah, I saw the chorus teacher. So now we just need more strings players.

Yes. Until then, I'll do my best!

I know you will! :)

:)

Im first chair in trombone and i lead the bass section

Nice!!! Perfect!!

Yeee

I play trumpet, but I havent played a lot over quarantine ;-;

Oof. That's okay

Okay

omg HOW

I thought this stream would get like 10 followers at most...

24 followers..... :D

Ikr? It's greatXD

I want to learrnnnn.......triangle

Alright, are you sure? It's veeeerry difficult.

I'm up to the challenge

Wait what? Triangle is difficult?

(I'm teasing him. But usually percussionists have to play multiple instruments at once, including triangle so it depends on how you look at it)

yep, we do ;-;

You're a percussionist?? Awesome!! I'm good friends with a few, that's the only reason I'm even a bit competent when it comes to this

cOoLiO

Would you like to join the band? I believe Scar needs a little bit of help, especially with that wrist...

sure!

Yay

Very well. Since you are learning it, we can set up lessons if you would like so you could catch up with the rest of the class

OOooooooo, what do I do first?

Well, first you should probably get a triangle. Are you planning on learning other percussion instruments or has it been your lifelong dream to play triangle?

no, just triangle

Alright. Do you ahve a triangle or would you like to borrow the school's for the year? (or semester. some people drop out of band because of the trumpet section)

school's
and ouch, why would anyone do that?

We are on a low budget and the trumpets tend to get... creative with what they use as mutes

...how's that?
And yay!

:) Alright, now, can you follow music?

yesss....

Noooo!! Do you know how much those scores cost?? I don't have the money to pay for new ones!! The school certainly doesn't!! *bell rings* Go call your parents about your wrist. I'll deal with that next class

*slithers away*

*shudders at sight of missing music* my music....

lol, oops

OUT!

*falls backwards down the stairs*

*aside* oh no, not this again.
Hey, kid, are you okay? Should I call someone?

No *slithers away on ground*

To put on your wrist. To try to stop the bleeding. *glances at the clock again* Three more minutes, come on!

No

*glances anxiously at the clock* Look, the brass section gets spit all over the floor, I'm sure a little blood wouldn't hurt...although that's not just a little blood... but okay. Let's try to get through a song really quick. Let's start simple, here's music for Twinkle twinkle little star. All you have to do is lightly strike it...um, inside. yes inside. See this music, court the measure and strike it then. *puts music on a stand in front of Captain_Scar*

*eats music*

Hey, let's not go that high, you might hurt your wrist. And hit outside.

*breaks wrist* Like this?

Alright, now, any questions? And should wrists bleed that much?

No *sips blood*

*glances at clock* Five more minutes, we still have time. Go grab one of the color guard's skirts out of the storage closet to use, I'm sure they won't mind. Then come back and let's try to go through one of the songs.

I'm not wearing a skirt

Ohhh, up(is that a bone??) Here are some paper towels, you have to wait until next period to take care of the rest.. Try using your other hand, I'll hold the triangle for you. (I don't think we have a nurse either...)Go to the office and call your mom after class, okay? Now, try hitting outside. We could use that for the end of Iron Man

*Hits inside*

You know, it's a start.

(I honestly don't know if this is supposed to be more of a roleplay or what, that's why I asked)
Here, I'm going to tie a string. Rule number one, don't let it fall. Two, hit inside the triangle, not outside. Here's the music for Seven Nation Army and Vehicle, if and when we play as the band, you will need to hit the triangle lightly, not too harshly, when the note is there. Any questions?

*Hits outside of triangle*

No, no, I said inside. You can hit the outside for a different song. Got it?

*hits outside again*

Inside. INSIDE*takes triangle and hits inside* 45-degree angle, okay?

*hits outside again at 90-degree angle*
