David Childs - Carnival of Venice - Euphonium

Paganini's Carnival of Venice arranged Arban/Camerata/Childs performed by euphonium soloist David Childs with orchestral accompaniment.

[@MovieProductionsRRTM]

Like if this is what you get all the time from being a euphonium player: "What instrument is that?" "A euphonium" "Whats that?' "It's like a small tuba.."

OOOH I live for this! Euphonium is given little to no credit. There are countless times when I've been asked what I play because my mouthpiece is on the table and they either guess Trumpet or Tuba and I have to control myself to not choke them. Let's go Euphoniums (or baritones stfu).

[@BLACKIE16491]

Euphoniums,so over rated...said no living person ever. . .

[@stouter2188]

I myself as a trumpet can say that the trumpets are a little overrated and should be given credit to baritones. because baritone is lit.

[@a_puntato29]

Wooo! Euphonium for the win! I myself am in my third year of playing Euphonium, And I find it extremely enjoyable. I just hate how most people think all instruments are so simple- Like, they think Percussion is just hitting things, and the rest of the instruments are simply blowing into a hole.. They couldn't be more wrong.

[@velcroman11]

BLACKIE16491 The euphonium is the most beautiful voiced of ALL brass instruments. Soft and mellow when needed and strong and authoritative when needed. No other brass instrument is so versatile !

[@tamukajambi774]

David Childs ummmm my source of inspiration. I enjoy the way you play the euphonium. The best

[@BaritoneEuphoniumJef]

David plays with such class and style and has a great stage presence. He makes the euphonium sing!

[@Ouranos94]

I love this song. He is the best person that i've heard play this song. I want to play like him some day.

[@aimeeguest8542]

I have been playing the euphonium for about 2 years and my teacher always says when I struggle to play a piece that even David Childs was at the level I am at now at some point and I find that hard to believe.😃

[@euphgeek]

+Aimee Guest It's true! I've been playing euphonium for 20 years, and trumpet for 10 years before that. And while I'll probably never be at the level David Childs is at, I'm still a pretty good player. But when I started out, I didn't sound nearly as good and struggled at times. All it takes is practice.

[@willbernhardt4163]

euphgeek any tips to improve performance? I am a freshman in high school and have been playing since fourth grade, but I hope to greatly improve in coming years? Any general tips or tricks to improve things like range or endurance?

I'm doing it as a freshman or sophomore. I played an easier version last year.

[@EMUsistas]

a baritone is a bellfront horn (the ones you usually see on the field i.e a marching band) a euphonium is what david childs plays, its used in concert (sit down music) and also most of the time parade. i am a baritonist/euponist myself and i have played for 5 6 years (almost half my life)its a very beautiful instrument and it will be my majoring instrument. oh right, uh well i hope my answer helped. also, since a euphonium is a concert horn it has a softer sound to it. . .

Growing up I learned Bb Trumpet. It wasn't until much later did I learn about the baritone/euphonium horn. I love the warm sound they produce, and I decided to try one out. The transition was not too hard and I had a great time playing it in a small band. What a great instrument.

[@jennatulls9225]

@Nestor Pelayo I wasn't quite sure, Thanks for clearing that up

[@christopheralvarado4544]

@@jennatulls9225 Another thing is that since the air goes through more tubing than say, a trombone, there's a lot more resistance when trying to play loud.

[@Niffiwan]

You didn't understand the point of my comparison. It has nothing to do with how widely used they are, but with physical characteristics. Euphoniums and flugelhorns (and tubas, and French horns) have conical bores. Baritones and trumpets (and trombones, and flutes) have cylindrical bores. See the Wikipedia "Bore (wind instruments)" article for a definition.

[@nickfurr2681]

im in marching band too so im like a marching euphonium is like a bigger trumpet and a concert euphonium is a mini tuba

[@ninjaheart92]

@Alexxaisonfire Everyone should. Euphonium is a pretty beast instrument. I march it and play it in concert band.
