[varvara]

Me, a double basist, seeing those violinists suffer: f i n a l l y they understand

[Lina_]

Violinists trying to play double bass for the first time: MY BACK HURTS!
The double bassist: yeah actually my RIBS are UNEVEN

[MChrisGM]

Video content:

10% “Uhh it hurts”
90% Whales chating

[okbutjikook]

Professional: “My ribs aren’t even because of playing the bass”

Brett: *IMMEDIATELY SITS PROPERLY*

[Zelomeisterdude]

After listening, I believe the complete title of the piece in English, is: "The Dying Elephants."

[pierresauce]

"Nice overtones!" is one of the sickest backhanded compliments I've ever heard, I can't believe Eddy didn't just fall out of his chair dead

[ImNotPracticing]

Prayers for editor-san who had to endure the practice session

[MissTwoSetEncyclopedia]

*Final scores*

_Brett_
+2 being a hazard
+12 old tired man
+11 weak a** violinist

_Eddy_
+1 sacrilegious boi
+15 old tired man
+11 weak a** violinist
+1 blaming the bass
+1 blaming the bow

[thelastmartyr]

"Are you trying to play it badly?"

"No, I'm actually trying."

Yeah, yeah

[Jay-S]

Eddy: Is this the french or the german grip
Phoebe: T H A T I S N O T H I N G

[ljx]

"my back's sore"
"my fingers are red"
"my bum hurts"
*laughs nervously in pianist*

[yueluluu]

Final scores:
Eddy:
+15 tired old man
+12 weak a** violinist
+1 sacrilegious boi
+1 Eddy blaming the bass
+1 Eddy blaming the bow

Brett:
+12 tired old man
+10 weak a** violinist
+2 Brett being a hazard

Hope I calculated this correctly and hope this helped

[jordigutierrez]

Piece's name: L'elephant
The way the piece was played: L'elephant qui veux juste mourir.

I was a violinist in my school band who got "chosen" to play the double base because we needed one. I can confirm that their portrayal of pain and discomfort in this video is accurate.

[dirtyrat]

"honestly sometimes we forget to play and the conductor doesn't even notice" ~every bassist ever

[kyaaa]

twoset: whines for an hour
me, sipping my bubble tea and smirking: QUALITY CONTENT

[maddyl]

as a bassist i really appreciate this cuz everyone else is like “bass is so easy” and i’m like “are you ready for hand pain”

[insertuserhere]

This makes me want to practice
I can feel my bass staring at me saying " now you don't want to sound like that do you??"
