Hey, how's it going? Welcome back!
What are we doing?
Cartoon!
Shh. Air conditioning, be quiet.
Not now.
Alright, so we reviewed some cartoons...
Recently with violin playing and...
You guys seemed to love it,
so let's watch some more cartoons together.
I was surprised at how dark some cartoons can be, hey.
The Futurama one...
- Yeah... Oh... - The Simpsons... Oh my god, Homer.
I'm actually looking forward to it.
I think this will be really fun.
What's the first one?
Okay, hang on, hang on, hang on.
Peter what note are you playing?
I'm sorry, I'm not familiar. Note?
Haven't you been practicing?
Okay, so much has happened already.
Okay, first of all...
Not practicing versus not knowing what a note is
is very, very, very different.
It's like, you don't even know what a note is.
That's like saying, I haven't been...
Writing versus I don't know what
- the alphabet is. - The alphabet is.
Secondly...
That's not a very conventional string quartet format.
I don't know if it's possible. I mean, it might be but...
Oh, okay, see the cello needs to be between the legs.
Right now it's in front of his legs, which is wrong.
It should be the opposite.
Yeah, the cello should on where Peter's sitting.
Peter should be where the cellist is.
But, that's pretty funny.
- That's pretty funny. - Dude, their faces are...
Pretty funny.
If you think about it.
Haven't you been practicing?
Peter: Alright, fine, I haven't.
But I've been doing other violin stuff.
Like, I bought this jacket like what Bugs Bunny wears
when he's with that opera guy.
Wow, that looks sharp.
Yeah, I've been practicing how to sit down in it.
That is so true.
Like you have to actually...
- Do that. In concerts, right? - You have to do that. Yeah.
But what's with the wet thing?
Why did it get wet?
Ew, Peter those tails are soaking wet!
They may have been in the toilet.
- Oh... - Oh...
That is so disgusting.
I've never thought of that.
- Yeah, I've never been in the toilet with that. - I've never...
- Done a number two while wearing tails. - No, never.
- Well, there you go. - Thank God.
Just take it off!
We got our first gig!
Wow, a wedding, that's awesome.
Alright, then we should probably practice our piece.
*Out of tune playing*
*Mimics the playing*
They - They did a vibrato animation for a trill.
And the bow moved with it.
Yeah.
Hold on, hold on.
Peter, that's terrible.
You sounded like you were strangling a cat.
Well, I was! That's how I got revved up to perform.
Glenn: No, just now!
Look, it's clear that you still haven't practiced at all.
Yeah, this was your idea in the first place,
but you're the only one who's done no work.
No work?
I stand in the mirror for hours playing air violin
to the song "Bitter Sweet Symphony".
This is so, like...
This is actually pretty accurate. In some ways.
Peter, you're out of the group.
What?
Well, fine! Screw you guys!
There you go, Mr. Glenn.
Okay, now you go.
I have to get back to teaching violin lesson.
Those scales sound terrible!
You fat and lazy! You leave now!
No, please!
I got to get better so I can be as good as my friends.
I really let them down.
You fingers no bleeding! You no try hard enough!
You want me press iron on your back again?
I'm trying, I'm trying!
Try harder! Play better!
Oh!!!
- Dude... - Alright, guys...
- Don't practice 'till your fingers bleed. - Yeah.
- Please don't do that. - Don't do that.
Cartoons get really dark.
Yeah...
But it's pretty funny.
God, I'm so nervous.
You're sure you guys want me to play with you?
Yes, Peter you play away.
We're a quartet!
Just do the best you can.
You may kiss the bride.
*Playing wedding march*
*Cheers*
Peter, that was amazing!
I know, those lessons really paid off!
I'll say!
The way you play,
we'll have more gigs than we can handle!
Not a chance.
Mr. Washy-Washy took all the joy out of this.
I hate the violin.
I hate music.
I hate life, and I'm never doing this again.
Alright, guys, let's go drink a bunch of free booze
and be a huge presence in the wedding photos.
Whoa....
That is kind of true!
I know, right?
I mean it's exaggerated, but I know...
- You know people that are... Forced them. - People whose parents have...
Forced them so much that they became really good
but then they hated the violin.
That's tough.
Cause you gotta maintain that balance of enjoying it...
And improving, but not...
Pushing yourself to a corner where you start hating it.
Damn, Family Guy spitting out some truth!
Some family truth.
Adventure Time!
Jake?
Hmm...
*Playing the violin*
*Screaming*
Huh?
Sounded horrible, man!
I don't know how to play!
Exactly.
I don't know, but...
I mean - I...
This says it's a viola, apparently.
Alright, horse. Prepare to be lured.
Follow me, horsey!
Jake! It's not luring!
Huh?
Hmm...
So...
Beethoven is not luring enough for you, is it?
Well, how about some Mozart?
That was so weird.
How 'bout some Mozart?
Mozart!
- Bee-thoven. - Bee-thoven. Moza -
Not to mention, the violin was like...
Two octaves lower than it should sound there.
That was the weirdest Moonlight Sonata I've heard....
- In my life. - Dude, those - That last two clips were so random.
So random.
*Piano playing*
*Burp burp*
That was unexpected.
Pretty funny.
I was just about to say, I liked how...
The beginning, the music...
- Matched his movements. - Yeah.
To score that, in a way that...
The instruments would play with the animations.
And they're playing Blue Danube.
Yeah.
So random.
It could be like a lactose intolerant...
Opera singer.
After they just gulp some bubble tea.
*Burp burp*
- Moving on! - Next one!
Are those the right notes?
Yeah!
Respect to the animators.
- They're actually the right notes. - Wow.
I'm impressed.
- Dude... The sync as well. - He's got rubato and all that as well.
Don't you hate it when you're trying to play something
and someone starts conducting?
Air conducting.
Wow....
Oh.
- That was really good. - I don't have much to say.
- That was just really enjoyable. - That was entertaining.
Yeah.
Leopold!
- Leopold! - Leopold!
Le - Leopold!
Can I just say, it's so good when...
The jokes and the animation
- and the music makes sense together. - Yeah.
This is like, real comedy.
It's actually done well.
- It's funny because conductors do do stuff - - They do like... They like...
- Whoo! Whoo, whoo! - Yeah, the little like -
- Little hand trick here. - Gergiev with his little thing.
- With his toothpick. - Yeah.
Also Bernstein with his eyebrows.
This is actually really good, you guys.
This is so good.
*Clapping*
"Dun dun dun dun"
*Applause*
- Woah... - Dude, that's so well. Done so well.
There's so many, like...
references to actual classical culture, which I love.
This idea that musicians have to follow the conductor.
And also this idea of like, the long...
Thing before the end of the piece.
- Like it always goes. - Yeah, yeah.
And also when he goes high and low...
The vibrato...
