00:00Oh, oh, oh, mini-toe.
00:04Hello there.
00:06Today on Sesame Street, we are going to hear lots of music.
00:12Have you ever heard a song that makes you want to dance?
00:16Or perhaps a lullaby that puts your cute little eyes to sleep?
00:20That is the power of music.
00:24So what do you say?
00:26OK, let's go to Sesame Street and listen to some Meow.
00:32I should have seen that coming.
00:39Sunny day, sweep it up, land away.
00:45I'm on my way to where we're free.
00:50And you know me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street.
00:56Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:24Huh.
01:32That sounds cool, best friend.
01:34Aw, thanks, best friend.
01:37Oh, hi.
01:39Welcome to Sesame Street.
01:41Oh, you're just in time, because Elmo and Abby
01:44have started the Best Friend Band.
01:47Yeah.
01:55Oh, Abby is playing guitar, and Elmo's playing the piano.
02:01Hey, uh, where's your piano, Elmo?
02:04It's over here.
02:05Elmo's piano moving.
02:07At your service.
02:08Oh, thanks, Grandma.
02:09No problem.
02:11Oh, OK, best friend, are you ready to play?
02:13Yeah.
02:14OK.
02:14Let's do this thing, best friend.
02:19Good morning, Sesame Street.
02:26Twinkle, twinkle, little star, little star, I wonder what you are.
02:31Let's try that again, OK?
02:33OK.
02:38Twinkle, twinkle, little star, little star, I wonder what you are.
02:46Play it again.
02:48It was terrible.
02:50Finally, some music a Grouch can listen to.
02:53Oh, boy, that sounded terrible.
02:58Yeah.
02:58Elmo thinks maybe Abby wasn't playing it right.
03:02What?
03:03Are you sure about that, best friend?
03:05Because from over here, it sounded like you weren't the one
03:10playing it right.
03:12Well, Elmo's played twinkle, twinkle lots of times.
03:16Elmo didn't mess up, best friend.
03:19Well, I didn't mess up either, best friend.
03:23Oh, Elmo thinks maybe you did.
03:26I did not.
03:27Well, maybe you did.
03:28No, maybe I didn't.
03:29I've been playing too.
03:31Hey, terrible music and arguing.
03:35This may be the best band ever.
03:38Well, my mommy used to sing it to me.
03:40Whoa, whoa, whoa.
03:40Guys, guys, guys, guys.
03:42Calm down.
03:43Take it easy.
03:45What's going on?
03:46Well, Elmo and Abby started the best friend band.
03:50Yeah.
03:50Oh, well, that sounds pretty cool.
03:51Well, it didn't sound cool.
03:54Yeah, it sounded terrible when we played together.
03:57Yeah.
03:57Oh, OK.
03:58Well, I'll tell you what.
03:59Let me hear it.
03:59And maybe I can help you figure out the problem.
04:02Oh, sure.
04:03OK.
04:03OK.
04:04But it's not going to be pretty.
04:10Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
04:12Hey, it's all fun.
04:14Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
04:15I wonder what you want.
04:17Oh, come on now.
04:18Oh, wow.
04:18Wow.
04:20Good try.
04:21Yeah.
04:22But I think I figured out what the problem is.
04:24You guys have a tempo problem.
04:26Huh?
04:27Tempo what now?
04:29Tempo.
04:29It's how fast or how slow you play music.
04:33Oh.
04:34Hey, Abby, let me hear you play.
04:37Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
04:40How I wonder what you are.
04:45OK.
04:46OK, so was that tempo fast or slow?
04:50Hmm?
04:51Well, Elmo thinks that that was a slow tempo.
04:54OK, all right.
04:55So, Elmo, let me hear you play.
04:56Oh, sure.
04:58Here we go.
04:59Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
05:00Elmo wonders what you are.
05:03Was that tempo fast or slow?
05:06Fast.
05:06Elmo plays too fast and Abby plays too slow.
05:11Boy.
05:12Looks like the best friend band has to break up.
05:16Piano move, Grover.
05:18I am on the job.
05:19Yeah.
05:24This is awful.
05:25Guys, guys, come on for a second.
05:27You don't have to quit the band or break up the band.
05:30You just have to stop and think of a way to compromise.
05:34What's a compromise?
05:35Yeah.
05:36A compromise is when you both change a little
05:38until you're both happy with the way you play together.
05:41Oh.
05:42OK.
05:43Well, maybe Elmo can compromise and play a little slower.
05:48Oh, and maybe I can compromise and play a little faster.
05:52Oh, OK.
05:53See, that sounds like a great compromise.
05:55Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
05:56The best friend band is back together.
05:59Yes.
06:00Piano move, Grover.
06:02I'll be back.
06:04There you go.
06:07Oh, come on, best friend.
06:09Let's play.
06:10Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
06:13Now I wonder what you are.
06:16Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
06:23Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
06:26Now I wonder what you are.
06:29Yay!
06:31We did it, Andy!
06:32Yeah!
06:34Way to mess up perfectly bad music.
06:38Great work, best friend band.
06:40Hey, just keep on rockin', please.
06:42All right, best friend.
06:44What should the best friend band play next?
06:46Um, let's see.
06:47Oh, oh, how about the alphabet song?
06:50Best friend.
06:51Aw, great idea, best friend.
06:56A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
07:00H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P.
07:03O, R, X, T, U, Z, W, X, Y.
07:09Abby, come on, Abby.
07:10Abby, Abby.
07:11What happened?
07:12Elmo's not sure, but it didn't sound too good, best friend.
07:15Well, it wasn't my fault, best friend.
07:18Well, it wasn't Elmo's fault, best friend.
07:20Oh, was two.
07:22Was now.
07:23Was two.
07:24Was not.
07:24Was two.
07:25It was not Elmo's fault.
07:26Was two.
07:27Oh, no.
07:29What happened?
07:30Well, now we can't play the alphabet song.
07:33OK, well, let's have a listen, and maybe we can figure out what the problem is.
07:39A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, G, Y.
07:47No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:48OK, I see what the problem is.
07:50You guys have a dynamics problem.
07:52What is dynamics?
07:54Dynamics are how loudly or how softly you play music.
07:58Elmo, let me hear you play.
08:00Sure, Chris.
08:02Here we go.
08:04A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
08:07You see?
08:08OK, so, was Elmo playing loudly or softly?
08:13Um, softly.
08:14Definitely softly.
08:16Uh-huh.
08:17OK, so, Abby, let me hear something from you.
08:22A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
08:25Ha, ha, ha, ha.
08:27Oh, oh, oh, OK, OK.
08:28So, how about Abby's dynamics?
08:31Loud or soft?
08:33Loud.
08:34Definitely loud.
08:37Elmo play soft and I play loud.
08:39The best friend band has got to break up.
08:44Peanamover, grow up.
08:45Wait, wait.
08:47Sorry, just false alarm.
08:49Guys, guys.
08:50You don't have to break up the band when you don't agree with each other.
08:53Just, you have to stop and think of another compromise.
08:57Oh.
08:59Hey, hey, maybe I can play softer.
09:01Oh, then Elmo can play louder.
09:03Why don't you give it a try?
09:05Let's do this, best friend.
09:08A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
09:12H, I, J, K, L, S, N, O, P.
09:43Q, R, S, T, U, V.
09:44I want to play Old MacDonald, best friend.
09:46But Elmo doesn't want to sing Old MacDonald, best friend.
09:48Elmo wants to sing Elmo's song.
09:49Yeah, but best friend, I would really like to sing Old MacDonald, best friend.
09:52Well, Elmo's song.
09:52Elmo's song.
09:53OK, that's it.
09:55The best friend band is, it's breaking up.
09:58Fine.
09:59Hmm, piano mover, Grover.
10:03Are you sure?
10:04Yes.
10:04All right.
10:05Here, because this thing is kind of heavy, you know.
10:10Bye, best friend.
10:14Elmo doesn't want to break up the best friend band.
10:17Well, neither do I, Elmo.
10:19But what are we going to do?
10:21Well, maybe we should stop and think of a compromise.
10:26Yeah.
10:26Oh, let's take turns.
10:29First, with your Abby's song, and then with your Elmo's song.
10:33That's a great idea, Elmo.
10:35And then maybe we can mix the songs together.
10:37Ooh, let's try that.
10:40Piano mover, Grover.
10:43Yeah, I knew this was coming.
10:46Are you ready, best friend?
10:48Ready, best friend.
10:55Oh, let's try that.
10:56Old MacDonald had a farm.
10:59E-I-E-I-O.
11:01Old MacDonald had a farm.
11:05E-I-E-I-O.
11:07With a piano here.
11:09La, la, la, la, la.
11:11And a guitar there.
11:12La, la, la, la.
11:14Here, um.
11:14There, um.
11:15Everywhere, um.
11:16La, la.
11:17Elmer loves music and Abby, too.
11:20And music sounds better with you.
11:24That's Elmo's.
11:25And Abby's.
11:28That's a best friend song.
11:31Oh, yeah.
11:34Oh, best friend band.
11:36Yeah.
11:37Good job, best friend.

15:04How for heaven to say.
15:05The hummingbird humming on a sunny day.
15:08The little green blue crack broke a little fan.
15:10The pine trees rustling in the summer wind.
15:12That's music playing for free.
15:15Every little sound in harmony.

17:59Yeah
17:59What do you teach here at music school?
18:01I teach piano
18:05How do you teach piano?
18:07I have to teach the students first
18:08How to use their fingers
18:09Because that's how we make the sound
18:11I know how to use my fingers
18:12Look
18:13Whoa

23:05Oh, okay.
23:07How do you hold a violin when you play it?
23:11Oh, good question, Dorothy!
23:13Let's ask Mr. Noodle.
23:14Mr. Noodle!
23:16Hey, Shake, please go up.
23:19Shake, stop fiddling around and go up, please.
23:22Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
23:24Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
23:27Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
23:30Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
23:37Hi, Mr. Noodle.
23:40Now, Dorothy has a question, Mr. Noodle.
23:43You ready?
23:44Okay.
23:45How do you hold a violin when you play it, Mr. Noodle?
23:48You know how, Mr. Noodle?
23:51No.
23:52Mr. Noodle?
23:53A violin.
23:55Not a banana, Mr. Noodle.
23:57You can't play a banana.
23:59How do you hold a violin?
24:02Yeah.
24:03Yeah, that's it.
24:04That's right.
24:05A violin.
24:06How do you hold it when you play it, Mr. Noodle?
24:09Show us how, Mr. Noodle.
24:11You think he knows?
24:13I don't know.
24:15Mr. Noodle.
24:17No, not like that.
24:20That's dancing.
24:21That's very nice dancing, but that's not the answer, Mr. Noodle.
24:26Try again, Mr. Noodle.
24:29No.
24:30Not up there.
24:32Mr. Noodle.
24:34No.
24:35No, not on your ear.
24:39It's okay, Mr. Noodle.
24:40You'll get it.
24:41Try again.
24:43How do you hold it when you play it?
24:45Oh, Mr. Noodle, here's a clue.
24:47You see that little black thing on the end?
24:50That's where you put the chin.
24:52So put that black part on your chin.
24:54You know where that is?
24:57Yeah, right there.
24:59But no.
25:01Not like that.
25:02Just slide it over a little towards your ear.
25:05Yeah, over there.
25:07Not that far.
25:09Too far, Mr. Noodle.
25:10Slide it back towards your mouth.
25:13Yeah, keep trying, Mr. Noodle.
25:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
25:16There.
25:16Yay.
25:18You got it.
25:19That's how you hold a violin when you play it.
25:22Yay, Mr. Noodle.
25:24Now, all you need is a bow.
25:27A bow.
25:28A bow.
25:29Yep.
25:32No, not that kind of bow.
25:34It's very pretty, but you need a violin bow.
25:38You need that to play violin.
25:41Yeah, that's it.
25:42Yay, that's it.
25:43That's a violin bow, Mr. Noodle.
25:45Use that to play the violin.
25:49Oh, that's enough, Mr. Noodle.
25:51No, Mr. Noodle.
25:52I know, Mr. Noodle.
25:55A little help, Shade.
25:57Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, Mr. Noodle.
26:00What's that, Dorothy?
26:02Oh, OK.
26:03Dorothy wants to ask someone else.
26:05How do you hold a violin when you play it?
26:10Hi, Dorothy.
26:12This is my violin.
26:15This is the neck.
26:17And these are the strings.
26:21And this is the chin rest.
26:23This is how I play it with my bow.
26:38Dorothy, this is my violin.
26:40And this is how I play it.
26:55See?
26:56Oh, thanks, guys.
26:58Oh, and thank you, too, Dorothy.
27:00Now, Elmo will ask a baby.
27:04Oh, hello, baby.
27:06Baby, baby?
27:07How do you hold a violin when you play it?
27:11Go ahead.
27:11Go ahead.
27:16Oh, thank you, baby.
27:18Kiss, kiss.
27:19Mwah.
27:20Bye-bye.
27:21Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha.
27:23Ah, ha, ha, ha.
27:24Oh, boy.
27:26Oh, and now, Elmo has a question for uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
27:30You, you, you.
27:31Yeah, you!
27:32How many violins can this octopus play?
27:36Let's count them and see.
27:38Oh, octopus, here you are.
27:41One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!
27:51Seven violins!
27:53And one, one big bow.
27:59Wow.
28:00Oh, great character, everybody.
28:03Oh, and great practicing, octopus.
28:07Oh, maybe, maybe this is a good time for Elmo's surprise.
28:11Look at this.
28:12Elmo has mail.
28:13Elmo has mail.
28:14Elmo has mail.
28:15Elmo has mail.
28:17Elmo has mail.
28:18Elmo has mail.
28:18Elmo has mail.
28:19Elmo has mail.
28:20Oh, thank you, computer.
28:22Oh, let's see who is from.
28:25Oh, Elmo's got email from his friend, Abby Cadabby.
28:32Hi, Elmo.
28:33I'm here with my new friend, Miri Ben-Ari.
28:38Hello, Elmo.
28:39And she plays the violin.
28:42Um, Miri, what's a violin?
28:46This is a violin, Abby.
28:48See, it's a musical instrument that has strings,
28:51and I love to play it.
28:53You play that?
28:55How?
28:56Well, you move the bow over the strings,
29:00and the violin makes music.
29:04Oh, that sounds like magic.
29:07Not really.
29:08I'll show you.
29:09It's all right.
29:09Okay.
29:10Yeah.
29:13I'm doing that.
29:14And then I'm getting ready to play.
29:17Okay, I'm doing that.
29:17Let's do it.
29:18Okay.
29:18Okay.
29:24Okay.
29:25All right.
29:35Oh, I'll show you that magic.
29:38Let's do it.
29:39All right.
29:39Miri, do you think I could play the violin, ha-ha?
29:42I think you can, if you learn how to play it, and if you practice a lot.
29:49Maybe I'll learn one day.
29:51Now, all I know is my trick.
29:55What's your trick?
29:57Oh, it's this.
30:00Frumpkin, tumkin, ibbity-abbity, pumpkin!
30:06So, uh, Miri, can you play the pumpkin?
30:10I think I can.
30:12Let me try.
30:13Hey, uh, bye, Elmo.
30:15Bye, Elmo.
30:18Yep, catchy.
30:21Thanks, Tim Teodah.
30:23Thanks.
30:24Hmm, violins have strings and make music when you play them.
30:29That makes Elmo wonder, what else has strings and makes music?
30:33Let's find out.
30:34Oh, Troy!
30:37What is Troy doing?
30:39Oh, boy.
30:40Troy doesn't have strings.
30:44Does a flute have strings and make music?
30:48A flute doesn't have strings.
30:51But you can make music with it.
30:54Very pretty.
30:56Does cheese have strings and make music?
31:00No, it doesn't have strings.
31:02And you can't make music with it.
31:04What about string cheese?
31:06You can't make music with it, but it tastes good.
31:11Does a piano have strings and make music?
31:14Yes, but not like that.
31:17Strings are on the inside.
31:19Ah!
31:22Does Rosita have strings and make music?
31:26Rosita doesn't have strings.
31:29But I make music when I play my guitar, and my guitar has strings.
31:43Oh, yeah.
31:46Thanks, Troy.
31:48Now, now it's time for Elmo's violin surprise.
31:52You have to...
31:55No, not yet.
31:57Because now, Elmo wants to find out more about violins.
32:01Elmo's friend, Levy, takes violin lessons, and she told Elmo all about it.
32:07I'm learning how to play the violin, and my teacher is Mrs. Jimmerson.
32:13I have to be very careful with my violin.
32:17My teacher doesn't want to hear a sound when I put it on the table.
32:21I put something called rosin on the bow before I play the violin.
32:26Without rosin, there would be no sound at all.
32:30My teacher taught me how to hold the violin in rest position, and play position.
32:37I'm learning how to play Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
32:41I practice on two strings.
32:48Okay.
32:49And then, I use my fingers to play the tune.
32:52My teacher put tape on my violin, so I know where to put my fingers to play different notes.
33:06And I'm learning how to use different bow strokes.
33:10Legato.
33:15Which means a smooth stroke.
33:21But what I like most is playing while my teacher plays with me on the piano.
33:55I'm learning a lot.
33:58And I love to play the violin.
34:06Good job.
34:08Aw, great violin playing, Levy.
34:12Elmo wants to learn even more about violins, don't you?
34:16How can we find out more?
34:19Oh, yes!
34:20Yes, TV!
34:21We can watch The Violin Channel on TV.
34:26Turn yourself on TV.
34:29Welcome to The Violin's Channel.
34:31We string you along.
34:33And now, The Violin That Loved Her Bow.
34:38Once upon a time, there was a little violin that loved her bow.
34:42And her bow loved her, too.
34:46My beau friend.
34:47They loved doing things together.
34:50They took long walks on the beach together.
34:52We don't take long walks on the beach.
34:55Oh, then they had candlelit dinners together.
34:58We don't do that either.
34:59Well, what do you do together?
35:01We make beautiful music together.
35:07Oh, right.
35:09The violin and her bow made very fast music together.
35:15And slow music together.
35:23The violin and her bow made high notes together.
35:28And low notes together.
35:33They made loud music together.
35:39And soft music together.
35:44They played well with others, too.
35:47Sometimes they played with a lot of other musical instruments in an orchestra.
35:59No matter what, the violin and the bow loved to play together.
36:05And they played happily ever after.
36:09The end.
36:13Coming up next, Stringing in the Rain.
36:16So stay tuned.
36:19Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, kitty.
36:21Elmo wants to find out more about violins.
36:24How can we find out more?
36:27Who could that be?
36:32Hey, kids.
36:34How would you like to talk to a violin?
36:37And a bow.
36:38Oh, boy.
36:39We could talk to a violin and a bow.
36:42Yay!
36:44Take my bow, please.
36:46Why do I always have to play second fiddle?
36:49So, how is a chicken like a violin?
36:53We both have a neck and a body, and we both get plucked.
37:07But seriously, Elmo, you can play all kinds of music on the violin.
37:12Really?
37:13Well, what kind of music?
37:14Well, there's classical music.
37:21That tickles.
37:23Take my bow, please.
37:27Very nice.
37:29You can also play jazz on the violin.
37:32Oh, really?
37:33Oh, look, look, look, look.
37:35Dorothy's imagining Elmo playing jazz music on the violin.
37:40We're going to watch a fish think?
37:42This will be exciting.
38:00And there's bluegrass.
38:02You can play that on the fiddle.
38:03Another name for the violin.
38:26Elmo knows something else to play on the violin.
38:29The violin, the violin song.
38:31Yeah!
38:32Now it's time for Elmo's surprise.
38:35Da-da-da-da!
38:36Ha-ha-ha-ha!
38:38Oh, no, no, no.
38:39Not today, piano.
38:41Mm-mm.
38:42Mm-mm.
38:42Elmo's going to play the violin song on the violin.
38:47Surprise!
38:59We love the violin.
39:01We love the violin.
39:01A song.
39:01Play with Elmo.
39:02You, too, piano, everybody.
39:04Violin, violin, violin, violin, violin, violin, violin, violin, violin.
39:19Say goodbye, Dorothy.
39:23Say goodbye, violin.
39:25Goodbye.
39:26Take my bow, please.
39:29Take a bow, bow.
39:34Balloons.
39:36That's Elmo's work.
39:46Ha-ha-ha-ha.
39:48Presenting drums.
39:50Ha-ha-ha-ha.
40:00Come on.
40:04Bye.
