Okaaaay!
It's back! The...
Woooooah!
For those of you that don't already know,
sight-reading is when you didn't have time to practice,
and so you're looking at the music for the first time...
And you're performing it.
I was gonna say "Who sight-reads on the day of the concert?",
but then I realized I've done that once.
- Really? - Yeah.
Oh, damn.
- Balls of steel. - (Brett) And I was...
- Balls of steel. - And I was reading...
the score in front,
so the desk in front,
- Balls of steel! - 'cause we didn't have the music!
Anyway...!
There are 5 levels,
and we have to try and get through the whole excerpt
without making a single wrong note...
- Or wrong rhythm. - Yes.
Alright! Scissors Paper Rock.
(Both) Scissors, paper, rock!
Oh noooo!
I'll start!
Rieding Air Varie!
- Dude, I haven't sight-read for- - That's level 1?
Yolo!
Dynamics!
- It's a very non-eventful piece. - Yeah...
Next one!
Yo, that looks pretty hard!
- Wow! - I will be scrutinizing you!
- *Inhales* - What are you doing?
Ohhh!
- You missed this grace note! - Aww, does it count?
Aww, okay. Fine.
Hehehe!
- Told ya I'm gonna audit every little bit! - I hate the fingering! It was like...
Yeah...
- I was like, "Aww... fine. Fine." - Yeah.
Joachim! Oh... dude, that's level 2.
Oh! Oh!
- Dude, that looks hard. - Ooh, that's some tricky stuff!
Did you play the right rhythm here?
I think I heard two quavers, but I'm not sure, so...
- I'll let it pass. - Nah, nah. Yeah, it was alright!
- Clara Schumann! - Ooh!
- Bro... - Ha!
I don't even know what "leidneschaftlich schnell"...
- Schnell's pretty fast, right? - It means "very fast", yeah.
I can't sight-read this fast, no way.
- Alright, you know what? Just yolo it! - Yeah...
Yeah, yolooooo!
Ohohohoho! What the heck?! Did you make it?
I think I played right notes. It's just-
- I just... messed up the tone, right? - Yeah, but it's, it's- it's fine.
Why are all these pieces very like, non... lyrical? Like, weird?
A lot of times when you sight-read,
- you can kind of imagine what the melody will sound like. - Yeah! It's like...
- But not for this. - You can- no, you can't imagine this.
- Ooh! - No.
- Haha! - No, dude, this isn't level 3!
- This is level 10, bro! - Hehe, you can stop there.
It's scherzando! What a...
Dude, there's no point!
Yolo!
- This just went from like... zero to 100. - One, two! One, two!
- NAAAAAAAAH! - (Brett) Hahahahaha!
Oh, damn!
- I was so close! - But there also, it's like...
Is it?
- It's a dotted... - Ahh...
Yoooo, naaaah.
Nah, yours is so much easier.
Mm duh duh, duh duh duh, duh-
Yolo!
F***!
- It was alright! It was just out of tune. - Okay... no, I just messed up!
But there's no way you can keep going at this tempo!
No way!
Nah...
- Nah, I messed up. - Yeah, yeah.
That- ugh! That's hard!
Dude, you can't...!
Dude, it's only level 3, man.
Nah, I can't sight-read that.
60...
Nah. Yeah, you played wrong notes.
But you can keep going!
Dude!
- Nah! - (Eddy) Woo!
- Hey, it sounds pretty good! - Yeah, but...
- Dude, it all... - Dude, I'm...
Yeah, good luck.
- Woah! - Hahahahaha!
- Nah...! - Nah, there's no point!
Yeah, just go!
- Uhhh! - Woooah!
- Ahhhhhhh! - Hahahaha!
Ahh, no!
Dude, that's hard!
Ahh, I got two lines!
- But it also sounds like butchered tone. - Yeah, that's alright.
Yeah, I know.
Apologies, everyone!
