Jul 6, 2008 - I'm sorry to correct you, but what you're saying is actually wrong. The contrabasson does not act like 2 bassoons in one. It does not play more than one note at a time. It is an instrument of the bassoon family, but it has much lower register. For those who know music, it plays an octave below the normal bassoon.

Jul 6, 2008 - i heard this is the most difficult song in the world to playis this true?

Jul 6, 2008 - It's among them, but it most definitely is NOT.

cdeetz88111goalie Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - its certainly one of them, but it really depends on the instrument you're talking about because some things on a particular instrument may be extremely easy compared to another. for instance a glissando on a trombone is easy, but on trumpet it would take a lot of practice to have a solid glissando

Jul 6, 2008 - i see wat u meani never even thought of that but it makes so much sensethanks

Jul 6, 2008 - AWESOME some of the instruments really do sound like bees :P

Jul 6, 2008 - ;o they did very well, but for all of you who think if a musician's got talent they can play anything, think about how many times that, that group had practiced that piece before performing, great vid 5/5

Jul 6, 2008 - Well, it depends on how you define hardest...If you count the tempo as the difficulty, then it is one of the tougher ones out there.However, there are many other things that make a piece difficult. Sometimes it's the fingering and intervals that are awkward and make it tougher to play.However, I am an armature musician, so I can't compare it very well to other pieces.

Jul 6, 2008 - Amazing how you cant help thingking about bees when you listen to this

Jul 6, 2008 - Thank heaven i picked the cello and not the flute or the violin. I love this song and what makes this vid particularly entertaining is the violinists involuntariy doing the wave when they have the melody.... amazing...

wesselbindt Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - Everytime I see someone play any part of this song, it looks it's fast forward.

tibdreamgrl Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - my dad made me play the violin....i would have played the cello

Monica15N Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - yeah, you're right. But it might have something to do with the title, cause whenever I listened to this I thought of flies or mosquitos. But now I know the title lol
