I spent a lot of years in community college concert band. One semester a 14-year-old flute student joined us and was seated right in front of me. During the concert she went to turn her page and her music flew right off her stand. I was about to jump up and grab it for her, but she snatched it right out of midair, slapped it back on her stand and continued playing without missing a beat. Where did she get such poise at age 14? I figured she'd go far if she wanted to.

The thing about memory lapses? The second you realize you can't remember the next note in the middle of a performance, the stress hormone cortisol starts pumping through your system and actually *blocks* memory. Unless you've practiced ways of getting unstuck (like Brett mentioned), it's almost biologically impossible to remember. Also, my guitar strap snapped during a concert and my instrument went bouncing along the floor. Felt like an eternity and the sound was horrifying. Miraculously, it remained intact -- which is more than I can say for my nerves!

[@bluelover110]

[@charlienyc1]

While waiting in the wings to play the 2nd piece on my recital, I tripped on a bass saxophone stand, knocking it to the floor, mouthpiece first. I can relate on the horrible sounds of instruments (potentially) being damaged.

The snapping cello string triggered a memory of something I haven't thought about in decades. I was trying to choose between two cellos. My teacher was playing one while I had the other (I think). He rested it on the chair to go get something. All of a sudden it exploded into pieces and scared me out of my mind! I guess tension was too great somewhere and it crumbled to the floor. I'd never seen anything like that before!

[@10chb01]

Back when I was in my schools all state orchestra we were at a rehearsal and after break I came back and walked past the first cellos chair and immediately stepped directly on her bridge she had laid it down between the chairs, there was a god awful crunch and dead silence. She started crying and I felt horrible about it. That being said I'm pretty sure our teacher told us specifically not to lay our cellos down like that (not that it made it any better).

Had a friend of mine rehersing a base solo on stage sadly the recording got corrupted but in essanse the bridge somehow malfunctioned and all of the strings snapped yes all of the strings on the double base the sounds that base made are still engranded in my memory. As for the bridge it dissapeared and my friend was left with a look on his face ill never forget and everyone else in the auditorium with their ears covred.

TBH that lady running offstage who fell over the harp looked like she was in terrible distress. She was holding her flute, and was running for the exit right in the middle of the performance. She was either drunk or feeling very suddenly sick, give her a break. Actually my heart went out to her.

I actually had a piano roll away from me once during a service at my college’s chapel, which was built with an incline going down to the altar. Thankfully there was a fence which stopped it from going wheeling down the entire aisle lol (I panicked that the heavy grand would break through the small wooden fence but luckily not), but I did have to finish that hymn with my arms waaaaay outstretched, pause awkwardly before the next hymn, and then move my bench forward with a loud reverberating CLUNK before starting the next hymn lol.

I feel for the guy who forgot how to play his piece mid way through on the piano. I used to be like that when I was a kid. If I made a mistake I had to stop and fix it before I could move on. That held me back SO much as a musician. I always tell kids the most important thing they can do when learning piano is to just go ham and play any and all notes and get over the "there is only one right way to play" mentality. If you can get over the fear of playing wrong, then all of a sudden mistakes don't feel so bad and it becomes easier to recover and just keep playing.

I feel for the flutist. She's stumbling even before the tumble. First concert with my new choir I had the coughing fit from hell while on the choir risers behind a full orchestra. I snuck through the choir and down the steps onto the stage while surpressing my cough. On the way from the risers to the stage entrance door I started to lose my vision. I'm pretty sure that door slammed shut behind me and I almost fainted down the steps backstage. They were doing some renovation work so they moved the access ramp with handrails into this area to be able to move the marimba etc. The next thing I remember is gasping for air while hanging onto the opposite side handrails for dear life. I wasn't in a floor length skirt and I'm 100% sure that saved me. That and the random hand rails that weren't supposed to be there.

[@milesmartig5603]

PSA: If you get into a coughing fit or start chocking, always stay near others. If you fall and hit your head, or worse, fall unconscious while still not being able to breath, you are basically dead if someone doesn’t do something quick. People die when they go into a different room in order to be “polite”. It’s not polite to risk your life, get it out in a room with others.

[@hermannschaefer4777]

When I was a kid and had to play piano in front of people/parents, our teacher really tried to practice "stop and go", i.e. she said "stop" somewhere in the piece and we had fixed positions in the piece to immediately restart from. And that really helped a lot when dropping out for whatever reason. So ~ 7:40 could not really happen, simply we trained so much restarting at fixed positions.

@@evanphelps2265 That's what I saw too. In the full clip you can see her jump up from the middle seat and start heading to the side. The conductor can even be seen looking at her like "Where the heck are you going?" She also seemed a bit unsteady as she walked off and grabbed the shoulder of every musician she passed trying to steady herself. I think she knew she was going to faint and probably couldn't even see the harp in her way. When she bumped it, out of pure instinct, she grabbed it and down they both went.

[@evanphelps2265]

@@jasonsmith9147 EXACTLY 👏🏽. SPOT ON. Also I liked how the conductor noticed something was wrong and stopped the concert and went to go check up on her. There are conductors who don't and try to carry on the performance. I don't care what the orchestra etiquette or protocols are... if someone is having a medical emergency during the concert, immediately stop and get the member proper care. End of my ted talk/rant sorry.

The lady who walked out definitely had some serious health issues, maybe a neurological problem (doctor here). Looked as if she had no control over her body

[@giannaleng1897]

Eddy is partially right about babies. They do tend to be more adaptable and less breakable than you may think. They will be fine if they fall from reasonable heights or knock into things. In saying so, please do not attempt to drop your baby on purpose 😅 That toddler in the video didn’t sound like he was badly hurt. As someone who’s primary job experience comes from taking care of large summer camps for kids, kids will cry in very particular ways when they are really hurt. That baby sounded more like he just wanted Dad to get the drum off him and then get him off the floor 😁

[@dorachance3946]

I think the poor boy on the piano was the most relatable...I went to music conservatory for a while and one year we did a concert focused on Schumann music. All the kids were gathered on stage and performed 3-4 pieces each. The grand piano we were using was brand new, at some point during the concert the right pedal started to squeak very loudly...I was one of the last people to play and my piece required a lot of pedal, so I was in panic mode even before starting lol Then finally my turn came, the first two pieces were fine, but during the third one the pedal started squeaking so loud that my brain glitched and went blank in the middle of a phrase...I just stopped for I think the longest 10 seconds of my life 😂 then I managed to resume somehow and finish, but my God, I was so scared to use the pedal for a very long time after that haha

[@emilyacevedo4746]

Ok, as a parent of 3 yes, babies/toddlers are designed to be supper durable. To me the cry was very unhurt (at least physically) sounding. That alto sax was horrid cringe.

[@elissahunt]

The sax sounded like the person only started learning it that morning, if even that long.

I'm a nanny and I'd agree. The cry wasn't at all as loud as it would be if the child were physically hurt.

Lmfao, as soon as the Shostakovich came on, I said "is his string about to break or is his bow about to break." First time I performed that piece, my bow exploded at that exact measure hahaha.

[@violining]

Ahhh I really felt the guy with the runaway piano- I was doing an important performance and my D string just popped and went completely out of tune… Shortly after that, my E string died as well I had to take the violin down and tune it again It was so scary😅 Respect to all you musicians who have run into issues❤️❤️❤️ And to the rest of you cultured not-musicians too!

[@TeenTitanGirl123]

XD I think the thing Eddy said about babies is compared to us, when we know we're in danger we tense up which causes you to become more injured on impact. While babies on the other hand are still developing this so they don't tense up, they stay very loose and flaccid, so if they fall or are dropped, while they are fragile, they won't sustain serious injuries... (? I'm not a professional in anything medical or anything baby related just raised in a house with a mother whose in the medical field.)

[@wakingtheworld]

Applies to RTA's as well. The driver can see what's gonna happen and tenses up. The baby in the baby seat would be oblivious...

[@morusalba6405]

yeah, but the problem is that babies are stupid and try to kill themselves any chance they get

[@nat2057]

I've heard this about drunk people too! Because they're too intoxicated to react and their reflexes are slow, even though they fall down and injure themselves it's not as bad as it would've been if they were sober and they tensed up. Maybe your body absorbs the impact better that way

[@winternight1420]

This reminds me of a documentary about a tornado, apparently a person was dragged along with his house and everything, but before something happened, a flying pan hit his head and made him unconscious so even though at the end he still was yeeted(?) away and had enjuries he lived because he got unconscious, not tensed up. I watched this many years ago, I don't know the veracity of this nor if my mind changed it.

[@coldspade1590]

@@nat2057 think of it this way. its easier to snap dry spaghetti. if your muscles are tensed and resisting you can tear them. you will try to keep your body in a certain position and that extra stress can cause more injuries. when you are relaxed things can move freely and there are less stress points in your body where injuries will occur.

Story time: I had a concert and midway through, my music stand collapsed and my music went everywhere (there was 4 or 5 pages). Thankfully, my section (I play euphonium) was resting at the time and me and the guy next to me were able to get everything put back the way if was before our entry, but it was still embarrassing

[@operablogger]

In case someone didn't recognize it, the vocal piece (with piano accompaniment) was the last few dozen bars of the second act of Verdi's opera, Aida. In the fully orchestrated version, the composer CHANGED THE FRIGGING KEY as the chorus (and soloists) hit their final note, at which point the horns blare in to wrap up the act. It's a brilliantly dramatic moment in the opera -- not that you would know that from THIS performance. Verdi is insanely hard on singers in his most dramatic parts, which is why it's not really for amateurs.

[@vixn9501]

In the saxophone clip, I'm pretty sure the problem was with his octave key. Something similar happened to me during a performance duet at my school. My friend ran off and I cried in shame :D

The cello string busting--it happens. Jacqueline Du Pre had it happen to her as she started the third movement of the Dvorak. She just went backstage, replaced it, tuned up and the third movement restarted. It does happen!

5:26 I remember once, it was two days if I remember correctly, two days before the performance day, it was jazz orchestra so, we came for the rehearsal and we were very surprised to see our classical orchestra conductor was there too. (At the time, me and my sister were playing in both jazz and classical) Shortly afterwards, we learned that the supposedly jazz conductor for the performance that had been conducting us for the past few weeks of practice somehow just... disappear(?) So, they had the classical conductor to fill in the spot and it was one of the most awkward jazz practice ever, like... the conductor be very detail about our intonation and stuff. And he conducted us as if he was conducting the classical, except we're playing jazz music. It was so awkward cuz tbh, as classical orchestra player, we joined jazz in secret so none of the other classical player (except those who joined in secretly just like us) and the classical conductor know about it until that day. We felt so exposed, we just feel like ditching the whole rehearsal and performance itself, but we did it anyway. When we came for the next classical practice, it was sooo awkward to see the same conductor that caught us red handed but we just pretend like nothing happen. I wonder what the conductor felt and thought, though.😅😅😂😂

[@marieindia8116]

What's wrong with doing both?

[@elissahunt]

I know lots of musicians who do both "legit" and jazz. My husband is one. Nothing is wrong with that. But jazz groups don't really need a conductor (which is why most big bands were led by actual musicians who generally only "conducted" to start or sometimes stop a piece).

[@jameshancock1528]

Any good conductor would respect your desire to do both, if you play in the appropriate way for each group then there shouldn't be a problem
