I'm a Canadian clarinetist, I have no idea whether or not this was for real, but...a British friend who was working in the orchestral scene there at the time once told me, this got taped because an actual audition was so bad, they called the player back the next week, just to get it for posterity! In any case, I just want to believe it could have really happened....thanks for the upload!
The Holst was moderately good, but there's a lot of issues with speaking the same note three times and having three different responses. I've never seen Holst go through an abattoir, but I imagine I might have an idea what the result might be.
This video makes absolutely no sense. So either its done as a spoof, or some poor sod has had their audition taped and laughed at. Please explain. Thanks, Rebecca
Fantastic, I’m in tears
This is my go-too clip whenever the world has just gotten too horrible for words and I need a little something to lighten my mood.
This is definitely what Mayonnaise would sound like if it were an instrument.
Best video to have graced RUclips.
Petrushka is definitely the best! 2.42

So do they make their reeds out of old coffee tables or something?
That’s what it feels like tbh
Excuse me sir a lawnmower is not an acceptable instrument in our orchestra

as a assoonist this was remarkably and utterly displeasing to the ear and eye holes
Amazing
Related to Portsmouth Sinfonia, lol
A for effort
Mozart would turn in his grave

Other than the notes not speaking well, the vibrato style is much too fast for such a low instrument.

I think it is a spoof
It's very obvious
I am sure it is a spoof.
looool... in a real orchestra audition, they would've gotten cut off after 1 excerpt :-D
Moist and heavy... just like my tuba mouthpiece.
Prank or not, this is utterly disgusting.
No, it's funky you're wrong
