YouTube videos are a very useful resource for musicians. Whether you are a teacher, a member of an orchestra or opera, or a private musician, you have all used YouTube in your learning or career.
Whether it’s videos of musicians playing, advice on materials or scores to play, it’s a very complete tool.
However, it is not always necessary to watch the whole video. Sometimes only one or two extracts are interesting to use.
So that you can extract the passage you want, without any time limit and for free, download Hashcut.
This YouTube extension allows you to extract any part of your YouTube videos in less than 5 minutes!
What to do?
Once you have downloaded the extension and linked it to your YouTube account, select the URL of the video you wish to cut.
I chose the Newzik advice video about the different models of page-turning pedals. It is rather convenient to send only those models to undecided musicians that may interest them.
In your browser’s search bar enter the following link: https://www.hashcut.com/
You will find yourself on this page:
Enter the URL of your video in the dedicated space.
Click on the “Start recording” button.
Scroll to the end of the clip you are interested in and press the “End recording” button.
Click on “Save Hashcut” and save it in the form you want. You can also send it to anyone you like.
Pro tip: It is very useful to save the URL of your new video, you can send it to your musicians, students or members of your orchestra on the channel of your choice!

The world of music education has changed a lot recently. The teaching community is growing and becoming more diverse every day. Learning methods have changed a lot. Teachers share their advice on how to adapt lessons to students, they share different exercises they find interesting, good tips or advice on teaching materials.

The acceleration of vaccination worldwide means that concert halls in most countries can be expected to reopen soon. But for many musicians, virtual live productions (livestream concerts) are still the only viable solution to maintaining the link with their audience.

The health crisis has forced music schools around the world to adapt, replacing face-to-face classes with virtual, distance and computer classes. Teachers have to rethink their programmes and the organisation of each of their sessions, students have to adapt to follow their courses online, timetables are modified… the list of changes they had to do is so long!

Do you often share your YouTube videos? It is very frequent that musicians, teachers to students or choirmasters to opera singers share videos of advice or concerts. Sometimes you want to send your video at a very specific time because you are not interested in the first 45 minutes!
