Swan Lake except it's hunting season.

Swans were definitely harmed in the making of this video.

Original song: Swan Lake, Op 20: Act II, No. 14 (Moderato) by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
This shitscore was made with MuseScore 4, GIMP, and Adobe Premiere Pro. You can download the MuseScore file from my Google Drive.

"Shitscores" are shitposts that take classical music and make horrible-sounding version. The genre was originally popularized by Parker Meek, and since then many creators have written shitscores of their own, but typically they only include a few instruments. I decided to put my own spin on it by orchestrating an entire full orchestra version of a shitscore with some extra video editing to polish it even more. "This is Halloween except it's terrifyingly horrible" was one of my first big hits. (Hopefully
that's enough keywords for the algorithm lol)

Wow, really? Your attention span is really so low that you had to scroll down into the comments before the video has even ended?? man. Truly impressive. Now get back up there and finish the video before coming back down here.

EDIT: For all of y'all coming here during the ads... get back up there anyways!! You're gonna get spoilers for this video if you come down here early, and I need this video to be the *maximum funny.* If you really can't handle 15 seconds might I suggest checking your texts or organizing the desk around you while you wait. 🤓

[Pixelaton]

I like to imagine the trombone’s spit valve drowned another random swan somewhere, instead of it dying by a gunshot

[katelyntaylor]

Tchaikovsky would be proud to see someone managed to incorporate artillery as a musical instrument in his work

[thatonedudethatplaysroblox]

"the trumpets rested for 37 bars and forgot to breath" as a trumpet player i felt that

[corvid_gremlin]

as a ballet dancer i can totally see this as a spoof ballet. like, all dainty and dramatic female swans like in the real ballet but then theres the hunters and suddenly its just chaos

[CaffeinatedSquirrel]

This is like the classical music equivalent of a Monty Python sketch and i love it

[theengineer]

Not only did the hunters kill all the swans (and the band for that matter), they did it with an artillery piece

[LukeHeter]

High school choir director here! Just played this for my students after our music history final and we had a grand time. "I wanna see this in concert!" - one of them.

[__Bannana_Feet__]

the trumpet emptying the spit valve is so real

[thewolfofthestars]

I would now love to see a performance of this by an orchestra all dressed as swans and the percussionist(s) dressed as hunters, and whenever they bang on their big drums another member of the orchestra slumps dramatically to the floor and stops playing lmaooo

[UnnamedThe]

I like how the hunters are hunting swans with tank cannons.

[TheHeavyshadow]

1:46 Why the fuck does that absolute fir tree of a note actually sound strangely beautiful. Like a "you got healed" sound effect for a PS1 game.

[diamondxmen]

I never thought Swan Lake could be turned into a comedy but I've clearly been proven wrong! 🤣🤣🤣

[iosonorubykenhiga]

DUDE AT THE EXACT MOMENT THAT IT SAID 'the trombones are no longer with us' A FREAKIN AMBULANCE DROVE BY MY WINDOW SIREN BLARING THAT WAS THE SECOND MOST PERFECT TIMING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED

[GallantCalamity]

I fucking love the amount of anguish you can hear after the hunter's first strike. Fucking perfection, as always.

[louloudaki_]

the fact that the subtitles like “no, jerry the swan” fit the syllables perfectly where it sounds like it could be lyrics

[leftysheppey]

I really love how big you can make a single note, for literally no reason. Going that high is pointless

[SPIDERS]

"The french horns are too, 𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒖𝒄𝒌𝒆𝒓 they stopped playing"

[steverman]

1:01 you can tell this guy's actually really skilled with music, emulating a gunshot by using a wall of notes on a midi timpani is so creative oml

[AlexGrom]

1:17
Now it's just the lake
the lake
the lake
The lake without swan
