not a single euphonium player I have ever met has had any idea what they were doing
the flute if you're a boy for the most part
Ukulele
Euphonium kicks ass, you don't know shit
i played the tuba and it fucking sucked. started playing in some big band and only went once because it was horrible. i only liked pressing down all the things halfway and blowing so it would sound like a cow mooing
but idk if it's a beta instrument. all the fruity wimps in the band played clarinet or those sideway flutes
this
The only real answer here. I can't think of a more useless estrogen-powered instrument
None of them, to play anything well takes commitment and focus.
Even 3 chord guitar sounds shit when played by a sloppy idiot.
this, only acceptable if you're Hawaiian
no, its not great but cant possibly be beta. too bassy
>jethro tull
this
kek
>tuba
>beta instrument
Pfft, you wish you could play with us
...
What about the most alpha instruments?
Shinji pls
saxophone
Clarinet
fagott
and this
I play tuba though
French horn
What about trumpet? Jazz trumpet more specifically
Niggers posting their high school band instruments. Sad!
...
Indeed, the French horn is the most alpha instrument, and I'm not just saying that because I used to play it.
The virgin tuba
The chad Wagner tuba
I can't really think of a beta intrument other than the ukelele, but I think pizzicato double bass is alpha as fuck
Jazz trumpet is alpha
I agree with this
Fuck you
Bass guitar
Ukulele
Harp
Soprano Saxophone
Tuba is alpha as fuck. Ukulele, trombone and clarinet are beta
...
Piano
An ukelele is just a boneless guitar
>Soprano Saxophone
no
Cowbell
How is it beta if you have to heft that thing around?
...
9 year euphonium player reporting in, can confirm.
>Being the Tuba's bitch
>Pretending that it's not a fat cow, even-though there are trumpets, flutes and clarinets in the same band
>No no no, I'm the better man for publicly displaying my my ineptitude
The only people who play the tuba are dumb memers, or kids that the band teacher relegated 2 notes per bar.
Ha!
Don't be so butthurt triangleboi
gonna have to agree with euphonium - despite having a lyrical and unique sound there are pretty much no jobs going for it outside of the odd professional wind orchestra/brass band of which there are barely any.
that or being a back desk viola
depending on the rep timps can be pretty badass
>open thread
>no viola
viola
keytar
otamatone
pandeiro
I've never met a trombone player I'd have a beer with. Even my good friend I was in a jazz combo with just gave me bad vibes.
...
As in exclusively Triangle or Percussion in general?
Octobass, only if you can master the fingering manually.
this user has the right idea
obviously drums like wtf
this plus i loled HARD
hey emmanuel
percussion followed by (double) bass
I agree with others saying euphonium
It's a virtuoso instrument that requires a lot of technique and yet barely any ensembles want it compared to trumpet, trombone, french horn, even tuba
Honestly just a complete waste of time to master
Brass players are the most alpha of the orchestral players though. They're always getting drunk and causing shit, playing practical jokes and laughing at fart noises.
Bassoon and flute are pretty beta. Harp too.
Tuba is the most alpha instrument. The betas play clarinet
Source: am a beta clarinet
Aww shit, my bad. That's a euph. Yeah, they're clarinet tier
drums are the most alpha instrument
suck it musicfags
Double-bass.
The double bass is sultry, cool masculinity in instrument form.
That thing at [1:15]
it's like hearing the lamentation of their women
youtube.com
that's a fucking big guitar
...
pleb
Lol
On a related note, what instrument is easy to play? I play the guitar and would like to learn something new, preferably wind based.
I've been thinking a Trumpet, but I really don't find them that interesting. I'm not a great jazz listener, but I love folkier stuff and Baroque pop.
brass is much harder than woodwind to sound good
sax is probably your best choice
the oboe
Piano is the most alpha
The saxophone is the easiest brass instrument. Trumpet would be one of the more difficult ones, definitely harder than guitar anyway.
Synthesizers and Samplers and Drum Machines. "Producers" in general who couldn't even keep a beat. Modern music has completely lost any sense of tactility.
dad? what are you doing on Sup Forums?
Saxophone isn't a brass instrument tho.
Dang. They're way more expensive though, but fuck it, I'll just get a second hand one.
Do you have any favourite pieces with
a predominant sax? Just to know what I'm getting myself into.
So why's it yellow and shiny?
>Just to know what I'm getting myself into.
sounding shit and annoying for AT LEAST your first year
Letting a computer do the majority of the heavy lifting is pretty beta. I like lots of electronic music but the process is a lot more forgiving for passive, isolated, nerdy dudes. Objectively.
kike
Came here to post this
Why is your mum shiny and yellow? Because... guys pee on her because she has kinky sex, haha!
whatever, just send money to mom
asshole
I swear we've had this thread 100 times before
So less than the usual Grimes/Kpop/memerap/soundcloud/metal/classical threads congesting the front page?
...
This, generals just make things worse in this board which is already shitty enough.
100% this, Ukelele is pure soy boy tier crap. Faggot tier is any type of flute or clarinet (stick more dick shaped instruments in your mouth and "blow" fag)
Drums of course
>played by beating the shit out of stuff
>can go full out aggression or can play it more passively to get bitches ready for a raw fuck session
>necessary component for various genres of music
>drumsticks can be used as improvised weapons to kill fans that compete with you for grills, stab a fuckers eyes and throat to death
>simple to pick up but insanely complex when you want to git gud
>best instrument for improvisation
The fact that Ian Anderson exists makes the flute an instant alpha male instrument.
