This morning I take off my mouthpiece and give it a go… my husband runs out from the shower soaking wet asking me if everything was ok with the dogs…. I got a long road ahead of me but I’m not gonna give up lol! Thank you for these invaluable lessons!
haha! I am glad to add some levity to your life :) I am sure the dogs are not fans of that exercise. I had a beagle in the early 90's who always used to howl along with the copland concerto cadenza
I’ve always like to mess around with my mouthpiece but never knew anyone else who would appreciate it. Especially not guitarists setting up for a gig. Now, someone taught me how to do it for a reason … other than scaring guitar players. Thank you very much.
Haha…I don’t recommend doing it on gigs:) I only do it in the privacy of my own practice room
Hey, this is such a great video, cheers! I’m graduating high school this year, and my teacher said I could pick the last piece I learn for school, so I chose a clarinet and piano arrangement of Rhapsody in Blue :) Knowing that it’s all in the voicing helps so much, I used to think it was some sort of fingering that created the gliss… it’s all a performance!! Thanks again!!
Great pitching,awesome tutorial, thanks..🎵🔥🔥🥂
kinda a shot in the dark as this video is 2 years old but, if you do see this im wondering if you could make a short video of how to properly play all the trills in this piece.
sure - I will do that
oh man oh man this video is super helpful thank you so much for the video! will try it out tomorrow during my rehearsal!
Thanks! Glad it was useful. Thanks for watching
I can barely move the pitch. I'm double whipping. Not sure whether that has anything to do with it. Any tips on the subtle aspects for those just starting to bend notes?
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your generosity! It means the world to me:)
i need you to make a video about staccato for me please
what logiciel you use for register or write music
Génial!
I was curious about the clarinet Gorman played and a Google image search brought up a picture of his Novelty Syncopators and the clarinet has a wrap around register key but you I cannot make out the rest of the key system. Clarinets with two rings on the right hand and no rings on the left were common and may have helped facilitate his glissando. If you wonder what syncopators are, jazz was a dirty word and even Will Marion Cook called the group he took to Europe, 1919-1921, The Southern Syncopated Orchestra. This group included Sydney Bechet and led to the first jazz critique to be published.
The wrap around register key was pretty common in all clarinets at a certain point. I think the idea was to keep water out of the register tube. Less rings would certainly make the glissando a little easier. As somebody who has always played a French system clarinet, the Oehler and Albert systems are totally beyond my comprehension as far as playing them. Intellectually I get it, but using the fingerings is super confusing to me.
Excellent.
Thanks:)
Who were some of your teachers? Just curious.
The teacher that was most formative for me was Gary Bovyer in Los Angeles. I did a lot of work and was equally if not more influenced by Ricardo Morales when I did graduate work at Manhattan School.
More broadly, I took many lessons (on sax) with jazz and studio legend Gary Foster. That was also a musically transformative experience.
There have been many intermittent lessons from all time greats as the years have gone by. That’s one of the benefits of living in NYC. I won’t lost them as it may be unfair to do so…but I have played for many of the greats that have been in New York orchestras when I was preparing for auditions and performances. The responses and insights that I have gotten there has been invaluable
I think melatonin keeps me up at night, so now I am here. And you know what, I’m ok with it🤷🏻♂️
I am glad you are here anytime for any reason :)
What mic are you using?
In this video that is a Shute 57 with a bit of an absurdly large pop filter on it. I also have a Lewitt 440 and a NEAT worker bee that I use sometimes. I find the 57 to be an incredibly useful mic
How does one change their voicing to go lower than a 4th
That’s a hard things to put into words. If one were to take in the challenge of telling someone how to sing down a fourth it’s the same challenge (in my mind). The thing I can say with confidence is that on clarinet, whatever it is has to be done without changing our jaw position or contact with the reed.
I wish I had something more concrete to contribute as an answer:)
@@clarinetninja I appreciate at least the guidelines of not changing contact with the Reed or Jaw positions
