im a bari player and this is just beautiful, hitting the high notes like that.

[@bradyreeves1522]

No high notes here. But indeed beautiful!

[@ultronlegend5837]

@@bradyreeves1522 when they are above the staff like that it is one of the highest notes for baritone. I can't even hit these normally for the life of me EDIT: if you're talking about the rest of the winds, the notes aren't as high

​@ultronlegend5837 I'm a Trombone who marches Baritone the looks I get when playing above an F are pretty funny. I can go to a super F and sometimes even a really high Bb and it really sucks Euphs don't get high parts because they have pretty much the same range

[@brodyquestionmark]

I hate how everyone is bragging about how those notes aren’t high or whatever, everyone learns at their own pace. No need to discourage others who aren’t at your level yet

Sorry for the black and white coloration and cropping! Couldn't upload the video without it unfortunately.

[@Euphonium_boi]

Well time to learn this! Should I post it tho…

[@toucap]

Definitely!

[@Euphonium_boi]

@@toucap Alright! When I bring my baritone home tomorrow I’ll learn it and post it

[@darimath]

As a brass-band player in Switzerland, also playing Baritone, everything about this video seems wrong. The writing in bass clef, the baritone itself, the amount of flats ... But the music is great, I like it, and thank you for posting it !

[@OddMeterMusic]

It’s a difference of tradition, in America you write euphonium, tenor trombone, and tuba in bass clef concert pitch, while the trumpet remains in treble clef and transposed to Bb. For people who play both trumpet and a low brass instrument, yeah it sucks to transpose. Sometimes baritone music is written in transposed treble clef but that’s usually done for beginning band players who are switching from trumpet to baritone. Hope this helps, it’s definitely confusing to go from one system to the other.
