Paganini of the triangle:
_pythagoras_
the triangle isn't even a right triangle
just saying
I know that much bruh 😑
Oh ha ha ha
And that’s big brain
HAHA YES
Non wind instruments will never understand the pain of extending a two second breath into around 40 seconds of breath
Exactly. You know your in trouble when you don't see rests or breath marks in a piece for 30 measures
Whenever I see little to no rests: Aw, I'm gonna miss being able to breathe.
not only that but being allowed a quarter second breath for 20-25 seconds is straight pain if you do it wrong
Have you met vocalists? Cause I'm pretty sure that's what most tenor and sopranos have to go through. As a baritone I had to go through that😅. I got used to it eventually
Blynq that reminds me of when one time I had the hiccups during a live performance at Houston and at the time I was playing bass clarinet and I was the only bass and the piece had like a 2 line solo after a 30 second repeat of whole notes and a quarter rest, so when I got to the rest I couldn’t take a breath because I freaking hiccuped so I literally turned nearly purple because I pushed out all of my air to play all of it... and that’s the time I nearly died 🙃

I've met Allen Vizutti as a fellow trumpeter. great guy.
On flute, once you get to a higher level of skill it really does become the slow stuff that becomes the hardest. Regardless of whether or not fast and complex scales and patterns are easy, the fact is most composers give all of that to primarily the flutes. Flutes are the "shimmer on top," which basically equates to tons of very fast scales and patterns played usually as at least 16th notes or faster. So fast stuff becomes not all that hard unless it's also hard for another reason. Because your air doesn't go directly into the instrument the way it does on most wind instruments, it takes a ton of air and breath control to play long, drawn out passages and long notes, especially with so much volume and so much of a change in dynamics.
Don't get me wrong, it doesn't mean that all that fast stuff is easy. It's just been beaten into us so much by every composer and ensemble ever that it becomes less difficult than a number of other things very quickly.
^ This. Give me a run requiring double tonging over anything with super long drawn out phrases. What people don’t realize about flute it that you are basically playing a highly engineered soda bottle. Trying to maintain constant pitch and tone quality over very long phrases is actually in many ways much harder than the stuff that sounds virtuosic to non-flautists.
As an example, if I need something easy that I can play well without practice or warmup off the top of my head not having played it for years, I’ll probably do a variation on Carnival of Venice that involves tossing in a bunch of fast (but easy) octave jumps or if I’m feeling a bit more ambitious, arpeggios. Impresses all the non-flautists.
If I need to convince someone who actually plays flute that I really do play proficiently I’ll probably first play some quick scales, to get the flute warm enough that it doesn’t sound like crap (they’ll wait ‘cause they get it) and then do Dance of the Blessed Spirits.
There’s lots of harder stuff out there than either of those pieces for sure, but the point is that even among the “back pocket repertoire” the easier sounding piece is actually sometimes harder to do well because flute is weird like that.
Personally, I disagree with this. I've got great lungs so breathing and keeping tones aren't very difficult for me. But I had to quit playing after 7 years because my hands got exponentially worse and worse with each year. In the end, it was nearly impossible to play 32nd notes at 240 bpm, but I tried my best to play them anyways. I really shined with the drawn out phrases, and I was the only one who carried those parts. It made me feel like I was still useful to our concerts.
I greatly miss being able to play music. I didn't realize how passionate I was until one day I realized I would have to sell my flute, since I can't play it anymore. Even holding it hurts my wrists. Seeing prodigies being able to play fast notes makes me really happy, because they reached something I was forced not to do.
I will always appreciate the "shimmer on top". I'd give anything to be able to be that again.
TRUE! im only and intermediate flute player but i used to play game with some mates where they would have to guess which songs are in a higher grade. They would all pick the fast paced songs because they sound more 'complicated'. for me long notes feel harder to maintain in terms of sound quality and slower songs feel more intentional and sound terrible if i mess up xD in a couple of years im sure this perspective may change tho.
The warmth in the tone is hard to achieve without making your breath“too wet”
Long phrases in the middle c octave are hard…..

Eddy: No. Can you?
Brett: No
Me, a flute player who also cannot circular breathe: Ha, string players
I did the same thing 😂
i can circular breathe but i can't apply it with the embouchure bc stupid braces >:(
Griffin Spears it’s harder wit braces I wish I could tell you the way I did it but I don’t even remember how I managed it
same instrument, same problem here
Flute gang ploblems
Remember that an oboist also has a reed in their mouth that they're trying so desperately not to break. First time i tried circular breathing i both broke my reed and threw up. Bad day all round 😂
Also they need to get rid of the CO2 buildup so it's not just breathing in, but breathing out that's an issue as well. You just can't expel enough air through that tiny reed.
@@MissCaraMint yep! Thankfully my oboe teacher didn't feel it was necessary for me to learn after that 😂 to be fair I've never needed to use it yet in my career!

As a trumpet player I'm disappointed that they never made it to the part where Vizzutti rotates his trumpet during the last variation. The part hands down crushes everything else
I wish they would’ve looked up Carnival of Venus and listened to that.

I love reading all of these comments about how Brett and Eddy don't appreciate how hard the brass/wind stuff is but, in their defence, the best musicians are the ones that make the hard stuff look easy and all of these musicians are PHENOMENAL

As an aspiring but still amateur recorder player, I couldn't agree more.
I wonder if there's a Paganini equivalent for the triangle.

@@aleksandrafurczon6717 it's sad, ik...
Yeah, but the song they put on here isn't that hard. I was shocked when I saw that Syrinx was the song for flute.
Let’s ge an F for the French horn
C for the basson, euphonium/baritone, timpani, bells, marimba, ect., an Eb for the alto and bari sax, a Bb for the tenor sax, bass clarinet, and finally, whatever percussion plays in for percussion.
Also for the other instruments.
Yeah I thought there would be horn or I'd see Euphonium but alas this is not two set brass
F because I am a French horn

I just realized no viola. !!!
The vibrato on the trumpet is not a placebo, actually. By moving his hand like that it actually very slightly changes the pressure of the instrument against his lips changing the pitch. Some trumpets like to do mouth or diaphragm vibrato, but that is another way too.
Michael Moon that’s really interesting, I had just assumed that it was actually an instinctive/placebo type thing. I’m a piano player, and I know a fair few of my ilk who sometimes try to get a vibrato by wiggling the key side to side.
I think this too when they said it 😄
Not only that but the different methods of vibrato produce different tones I feel. There are some pieces where vibrato using your fingers wouldn’t be appropriate and same with mouth. Using fingers can be more subtle too.
That's pretty interesting, as a beginner trumpeter I kind of always assumed it was the only way to produce vibrato. :')
I play the same kind of vibrato on my oboe
Pianist: *exists*
Liszt and Rach: *Imma end this mans whole career*

Technically yes. But from sheer difficulty (musically and technically) you need to give scriabin at the crown
Why everyone forgets prokofiev
The cadenza in the First movement is Just insane and much more difficult than many Liszt or Rachmaninow pieces
In the Second concerto#
Trumpet: “The flute’s part isn’t /that/ hard, they just need to play longer phrases! What’s so hard about that, it’s just 6 bars!”
My director, a trumpet player: “flutes use just as much air as tubas, but get half the sound. Be kind to them, they struggle with things you can not understand.”
Really tho, I'm a flutist and we aim our airstream ACROSS the hole and and the air splits to create the sound, so air is lost and goes over the plate that we place our lips on. The rest of the air doesn't even go INTO the instrument itself
trumpets really do be thinkin they’re hot shit #flutegang #doublesgang #maketrumpetsstopcomplaining
@@fernpelt54 lmao
Oboes and their back pressure tho D:
I'm also a flute player and sustaining that note with that dynamic for 6 bars is very hard, and catstuffies tran is right half the air is lost everytime a flute player plays. I've attempted to play sphynx, and I definitely can say that there is a struggle with sustaining a long note like that. It's all about keeping the air flowing through the tone hole as best you can. I do wish that I could circular breath, but unfortunately flutes don't get the luxury.
I play the harmonica (both diatonic and chromatic) and I have to say the Paganini of our world is Howard Levy. The guy invented overblows and overdraws, which unlocked all the potential of the instrument. Imagine half the violins notes were locked out and one guy came along and figured out how to use all of them in the span of a few years, that’s what Howard Levy did.
I’m the Paganini of not practicing.
Shy Why Guy isn’t everyone rn?

I know someone who is the Paganini of sleeping. They can sleep with their eyes open.

Twoset on clarinet: it doesn’t sound that HaRd
Me, a clarinetist: They don’t know the half of it
Barbara there’s definitely a disconnect between the wind instruments and strings players.
The whole concept of breath control and embouchure never really “click” until you have to do it.
Well I kinda am with you but i have to disagree with you because i also play clarinet and i cannot say that in any aspect the clarinet is harder than the violin main reason is because in the violin there is just so much to worry about at the same time and so many different techniques that you really need to dedicate yourself to learn violin well (not criticising anything i am just giving my opinion)
@@mattsnyder4754 i cried in my trumpet practice sessions for the first year. After that i played for four more years and head 1 solo Concert. but seeing other artists at that age (i was 14) be as insane as Professionals made me resign. Since the true Instrument Control seemed impossible to me
If you still think Stravinsky's 3 pieces are hard
--> get out of RUclips, you seriously need to practice!
Clarinet gets harder. Its the easiest to learn when beginning but it gets harder the more advanced you become
What they don’t understand is the difficulty of the jumps on wind instruments (especially brass)
Yes; I started the trumpet about six months ago. Large interval jumps are a piece of cake on the flute, and I've been frustrated that the trumpet doesn't make it as easy.
Though legato jumps on the flute aren't easy either :')
@@bente2203 I've gotten pretty good at that on flute. Trumpet, however, has been harder, but I'm still a beginner on that.
@@2NiceyAckerman a trick my old band director taught me, as he was a trombone player, is to sit for a little bit and just sit on open valves, low c g c e, and just practice for a while slightly tightening youf lips until you hit that next note. And then hold it for as long as you can. It will help with 2 things. 1 it will help with breath control and 2, it will help you build that muscle memory of how tight you embouchure should be. Another trick i learned is to sit with just your mouthpiece and just go up and down the scale. It should end up sounding like a really bad siren. Progressing further, you can eventually get to where you cut off your breath between notes. When doing that, try to work on the breath cutoff using the throat. Its more efficient and the tongue method will typically staccato your notes. But by far my biggest tip is just practice using just your mouthpiece. Typically i will warm up for a few minutes doing that as well.
@@FiendFyreNyx I have been doing harmonics (open valve notes, first valve notes, etc.) but not slowly like that.
You should look at more from Bottesini with the Double Bass. I feel like the little clip they saw didn't do justice to how crazy hard it can be.

@Joel Banning idk if you whooshed I'm being whooshed, but it was a joke
The "didgeridoo" sound you hear is called multiphonics. This happens when you play one note while singing the other note into the tuba. This is very difficult to do well since you have to pay attention to the intonation of two notes at the same time constantly.
And now imagine he would have mastered overtone singing as well. He could have played entire CHORDS!
We had a guy come into our band class that did this while beat boxing and it inspired me to briefly learn how to do this multi-tone thing with my voice where I can sing one note and then other notes on top of it but it’s really hard to hear tbh
I was wondering if he was actually singing into it, too! It sounded like overtone singing
I can do this on a trombone. Funny thing is, with doing it in certain ways you can actually play some whole chords bc of overtones
You mean like playing a slant or a country pull on a lap steel? ;-)
As an oboe player I have to say that playing the oboe 100% is a workout. I'm no where near as good as he was, because just changing doing a scale in one breath makes me feel like I've run a mile!
I also play oboe! And I totally agree with you 😭✋
man, me being an oboe player i can relate 😭😭
So oboes use more air??
@@isidoragonzalez23 not really, it just takes a lot more support. You actually probably use less air than flute, but it is just the pressure that really wears you out😆

Hey! I’m a flute player that’s playing Syrinx for an upcoming audition, and I’d like to share a little more information about the piece
Syrinx is not a piece that is extremely difficult, the person you watched perform was Emanuel Pahud, who is arguably the best flute player in the world. He takes Syrinx and injects it with steroids to make it sound like that. The piece itself really slow and lyrical, and Debussy intended for flute players to take the tempo and stretch it like taffy, to make some of the runs faster and slower. Most serious flute players have played this piece because of how lyrical it is, and how popular it is with audiences. It’s really a benchmark of your ability to take a piece of music and mold it into your style and preferences.
Yeah. I've played it on both flute and oboe. If you have good vibrato and time feel, you can make it sound good
Not Emanuel Pahud levels of good, but still good
French horns everywhere: we’re used to being forgotten
I was way better at French horn than clarinet but I switched in middle school because i wanted to play the melody!
My band teacher never forgave me.
@@melissaf88 I stuck with French horn through high school; it was hard but fun.
Until we started playing pieces by Robert W Smith.
I'm pretty sure French horn is his last favorite instrument. One that I remember very vividly is "Into the Storm" - a grade 3. For all the other instruments, at least. For the French horns:
-30 straight measures of just playing F
-A page turn in the middle of a phrase..... Twice
-Literally the entire piece is repetition
-Not even a single measure of melody
It was so frustrating.
Isaac Dupras i played into the storm in high school (second horn) and the whole first page was one note! The worst! I’d have to say the best horn part I’ve played is el Camino real by Alfred reed, such great parts
Its true, we are always forgotten
I play Baritone, but we are also forgotten. I feel your pain.

You don't hear trombones sounding like that bc most orchestra music either doesn't emphasize them as much as a soloist or they play for such a small amount of time that the piece just doesn't require them to do so
yeah, orchestra really does a disservice to wind (especially brass) and percussion instruments. we get maybe two measures of solo or play an ostinato in the background, so obv string players don't get to see what some people are capable of when they're in a wind/brass/perc ensemble.
Amen
Exactly. There aren't a lot of orchestral pieces that show off brass (excluding trumpets) as anything but power instruments. Granted, I love when I get to come in on epic moments in the arrangements like in Tannhauser or Romantische.
I would say some others that show off technical trombone skill would be Rimsky-Korsakov and Mussorgsky.
I agree on that. Generally speaking, trombones are mostly used for giving chord information and they would almost never have the melody or other important figures. That might be a reason why some trombonists tend to struggle with melody playing or soloing. It is never askd of you. You have to develop that skill outside of your daily ensemble playing. But once you get the hang of it you will be a man in demand because there are not a lot trombonists out there who can do that.
Speaking of virtuosity on the trombone legato playing and fast playing are the most difficult skills to master on the trombone because the perfect use of the slide makes it very technical and you will hear the smallest mistake in your tone.

Guys, the flute players trolled you! Syrinx isn’t that hard. A lot of high schoolers play it... and well. The real Paganini of flute is “Jolivet - Chant de Linos.” I hope you guys correct this and make another flute one. :)
While I agree it's not technically difficult, the adequate tone is the real deal here.
If you want something like Paganini, just try Waxman'# Carmen Fantasy adapted for flute. The genius here is Dennis Bouriakov
Have y’all looked/tried to play Ian Clarke’s “hatching Aliens?” That piece is a beast to learn!
I just made a reply saying that Chant de Linos and the Lieberman Sonata are the Paganini of flute😂
The hard thing about Syrinx is the phrasing. Hard pieces for us flutists Boehm Grand Polonaise, I agree with you about Jolivet Chant de Linos, Borne Carmen Fantasy, Briccialdi Carnival of Venice, Morlacchi Swiss Shepherd, Doppler Hungarian Pastoral Fantasy Karg-Elert Caprices and Andersen Op. 15 Etudes
Okay so as a trombonist, I gotta say the beginning of that bluebells of scotland video is like the easier part. Once you're at variation 2 or 3 it gets crazy. Another piece that does things that are not really asked for ever in trombone repertoire is Basta by Folke Rabe, a piece which does some of that Baadsvik stuff at around 2 minutes. ruclips.net/video/BAp--3wUC-0/видео.html
was that clip supposed to sound good or was it just more of a technical demonstration?
Fly or Die for trombone/bass trombone is also incredibly difficult, but really fun to listen to
hikarinosakura yes? the parts they listened to was only the introduction so the main melody wasnt even introduced yet. the variations following get extremely technical
@@ShianAnChiou Oh, I was talking about the video Evan linked, I thought it doesnt sound like much of a tune
Fly or die
For non-woodwind or brass players who have heard smatterings of techniques, just remember! Those instrument players who can circular breathe are also having to remember tonguing, trill, vibrato, etc.
If you're going to do another video like this, you should check out "En Forêt" by Bozza for the French horn. The partials on French horn are insanely small compared to say trombone, making note accuracy and intonation notorious to keep in line, and this piece has a lot of difficult mordents. The piece also features stopped horn, which is even more difficult to keep in tune.
French horn player here-can confirm
Trombone, Blue Bells of Schottland: It has a "theme and variations"-structure. So you need to check out the end of the piece, it's much more impressive than what was shown in this video!

@@matthiassanchez3211 Thank you for this comment! I didn't know, that this piece is also played by other instruments than the trombone. I just learned a lot about how to cover the typical trombonistical flaws, by just copying, what other instrumentalists do with this piece:)

Makes sense if they don't encounter saxs often because when I was in symphony orchestra which was our combined group, they didn't have written parts for saxophones in most arrangements

Bro, I looked at the music for the blue bells of scotland, and as a trombonist, I almost passed out at how high and low you have to go to play this, plus the speed and how smoothly he played it...*chefs kiss*
Title : "Paganini's of every instrument"
Reality : Forgets 90% of other instruments...
*Sad guitar noises*
petrucci!
Surely that's not even a question. It's clearly Eugine's Trick Bag by Steve Vai.
It's be completely impossible to cover even most other instruments, let alone all.
If you're going for classical guitar then Miguel Llobet: Variations on a theme of Sor. The first three sections are pretty easy but then it gets into some insane stuff. If you go to a classical guitar competition like GFA and play that well then you're basically gonna win unless someone else plays it.
Yngwie Malmsteen was inspired by Pagainini

Well, check out Camille Saint-Saëns' The Elephant... (yes, I'm a bass player...)
@@federicoandre5717 I love his Carnival of the Animals; it's really awesome work! I can't believe he was so embarrassed that he didn't want to publish it.
The Elephant strikes me as rather humorous and I really like it--can you play it?
@@andrewfortmusic Oh, hell yeah! Haven't played it in a while, but I love it. I started learning it when I was fist started learning bass, after I found out it was used for the tie-breaker (sight reading) in the final for an orchestra audition. The best part is, Saint-Saëns is making fun of Berlioz and Mendelssohn by taking their high-pitched, super light melodies, and giving them to the bass
@@federicoandre5717 He makes them sound clumsy by giving them to the bass! Saint-Saens is one of my favorites to listen to, but it annoys me that he was such a harsh critic of my favorite composers
As a trumpet player, that type of vibrato does work by slightly jiggling the valves in their cases
Brett and Eddy: the Paganini’s of every instrument.
Me: *cries in.... .... ....v ....vi.....o.....viola* 😢
They clearly said Instrument, where is the problem?
@@Alierii Shut up
Pierre Lenart.
Paganini played viola! But didn't write anything for it.
He did, however, commission Belioz to write a concerto-ish piece for viola, Harold in Italy.
I would say widmann viola concerto or 4th movement viola sonata op. 25 Hindenmith
"The Paganini of Every Intrument"
Guitar : I aM i JoKe To YoU
The irony is that guitar has too many Paganinis, both on acoustic and electric.
Yes
Paganini played guitar. Paganini is the Paganini of guitar.
For harp, it's absolutely Anneleen Lenaerts. Watching her perform and getting masterclasses from her is amazing. She's one of those who are the best musicians but also great teachers
plays blue bells of scotland:
doesn't even show the interesting parts
And yet are still left mouth agape lol
Same with trumpet
True lol
Twoset: “I’ve never heard a trombonist play so fast!”
Me: “keep listening buckos.”
says not a single word about Pryor
as a clarinetists, watching that clarinet performance, i’ve concluded that i want to quit 😂😂
So, don't even try to search for Han Kim on RUclips ahah especially when he was like 11/12 years old!
Instead go, “I should learn that!”
@@David-ry6mh Han kim is good, but he's got nothing on the actual insane clarinettists. Look up Nicolas balderyou
I'm still wondering how the frick they didn't applaud him for making it over the break without squeaking so much
The Tubist actually came to my middle school and played for all the musican students. (Our music director was also the director for a local community band that the Tubist was guest soloist for at the time.) We got to come out of class and everything. He explained how he learned to sing while playing his tube and urged us to keep playing our instruments. After he finished there were so many students who came up and asked him to sign their music folders, and our music director told us afterwards that he (Baadsvik) was not used to being treated like a celebrity.
People usually think Liszt is one who composed the most hardest pieces for piano but there were alot of composers who composed pieces that are nearly impossible to play. The reason why we dont really know them is because they considered only technique but no musicality so they are kinda unfamous or not famous enough. For example,(well this one is quite famous tho) Charles-Valentin Alkan is one of composers that caught both of musicality and technique. His concerto for solo piano which is a 50mins long concerto for only one piano is insanely hard and fast but it still sounds good. Just leave a comment here so people can look out for music more hehehe... (and Alkan is one of my favorites too... sry)
Duuude, I think it has been like 5 years since I last heard that name... Thanks! Now off to listen some of his pieces.
(Edit, not 15 years but 5, since I introduced his music to my bf.)
Apparently Sorabji made a 9 hour long piece for piano..
Liszt too has composed nearly impossible (some are physically impossible) pieces. Études d'execution transcendente d'apres paganini no 4b, 6 and 3, is clochette, etc.
If I had to go hardest though, it'll be the opus clavicembalisticum by sorabji. It doesn't sound very good though.
I personally think that Alkan's harder piece is "Le Preux". I, to this day, have not been able to find a right-tempo interpretation anywhere.
The jumps and the speed demanded are simply inhuman, but apparently Alkan himself could play it.
Agree, it's like complexity for the sake of complexity. And I think Alkan, mentioned above, is a great example of both melodically pleasant pieces and virtuosity.
Bottesini: *Is the Paganini of bass*
Davie504: "I'll call the police"
They didn’t even put the actual insane cadenza played by Meyer
But they the botessini concerto, the intro of the botessini concerto. Disappointment +9999999 by the way I love Davie504 sound quality, he’s better than 70% of bass players out there in my opinion

@@tylergash3175 agreed
I'm not in an orchestra but I'm the Paganini of the Pizzas
Fnugg is just flashy beatboxing, it’s easy. Paganini for tuba would probably be Encounters II by Kraft. It features way more difficult multiphonics, and the lowest note is a C under A0 (16hz).
wait, that means that more than halve of the public can't even hear the note?
Robbedem I don’t think anyone can hear the fundamental! You can hear the overtones and “beats” though
What about the Vaughan Williams Concerto ?
Alice Hill it’s definitely standard but I wouldn’t call it Paganini difficulty by any means
I just ran into this insane piece ruclips.net/video/O-NkYMRUQvs/видео.html
5:43 Eddy hits a C2
The tuba thing sounds like Mongolian throat singing, and in fact that's exactly what it is -- undertones and overtones.
Yeah true true and I feel the need to point out here it is NOT THAT HARD. It’s not even close to the Paganini of tuba. Look up the Jorge Salgueiro Concerto. That’s the REAL tuba Paganini.
As a flautist, I can assure you that Syrinx is not difficult.
Not at all
Every flautist here are like : wtf ahah
They needed to do Ian Clarke
Xerenas159 oh my god i LOVE ian clarke. i’m learning hypnosis right now
And id add that the shown part wasnt even the technically most difficult...
Brett and Eddy should do a challenge where they play a piece that they think the other has never heard and the other guesses the piece name and the composer
The double bass was incredibly beautiful
I’m soooooo disappointed of chosen piece for flute!!! There’s soooooo much more difficult pieces, than Syrinx.
Even Paganini’s 24 transcripted for flute is much MUCH harder!!!!
Agreed! I played Syrinx in Middle School.
Berio's sequenza is also very difficult
Hahaha
Agreed. Sad to see it here.
Then they pronounced it wrong..."Sphinx"...smh
Me a clarinetist:
Them: it’s not that baaaaad
Also me: 😐
Same
Same here
My sister(clarinetist 11 years now) said that its rly easy and that she played it many times
lol I’m only on my fifth year so I’m not at her level yet😂😂😂
Yeah, that was a college freshman masterclass piece for me lol. You want hard, look up anything Martin Fröst is playing
Flute: Syrinx is not hard at all. Jolivet's Chant de Linos is often considered the hardest piece in the flute rep, but if you want "the Paganini of the Flute" then you want Joachim Andersen's etude op. 15, no. 24.
Yup I was thinking the same thing
Syrinx is not an technically hard piece, but it is a difficult music in terms of musicality. Although, a "paganinni like" piece should be considered as the ones you've said
Actually let's be honest, ANY of the double digit Anderson Etudes are like that.
Agreed! There are much more challenging flute pieces that just Syrinx. Honestly I would have suggested literally anything by Bach.
Absolutely!
That double base piece was so soothing to listen to. It's awesome.
Since I'm at home due to the coronavirus and my parents are at work you know what that means...

Squidward wishes he could play Clarinet like that.
Imagine they had Squidward play that piece in an episode
If you want something that sounds more virtuosic on clarinet, I would suggest Cavallini (who was called the Paganini of the clarinet in his lifetime), specifically the Adagio e Tarantella. It's not too demanding technically, but it sounds impressive as hell. Then there's also the Nielsen concerto, which in my humble opinion is probably the hardest piece on clarinet ever.

Last time I was this early Corona was just a beer.
You should know about winds, and brass especially is that your lung capacity and managing air pressure is the real struggle. Your mouth pieces, embouchure and slightest movements control every part of the sound. the technicality to get certain sounds out of any instrument is sadly noticed only by fellow musicians in our solemn struggle to constantly improve. its truly heartbreaking.
