[contents] how it works where on the clarinet can you use it? can bass clarinet gliss? downward glissando how to achieve a juicier glissando glissando= fingers+tongue limits
You can do it! Listen to a lot of different recordings and keep trying to imitate their air flow and overall sound. Make sure your finger movements are very deliberate, as well the strong column of air is crucial. Let me know how it goes!
Haha, it's really not that weird- it just has a wrap around register key and a pinky roller (which I love). A Boehm system B-flat M1000 clarinet made by Schwenk und Seggelke.
Do you have any more tips for glissandos in the altissimo range? I have this solo in a band piece with a gliss that starts at around a clarion D and goes to an altissimo E.
Yes, I would say work on your scale from the starting note to the ending note of your passage with out glissando, really pay attention to what your fingers and embouchure feel like. And then keep the same embouchure, start introducing finger glissando. At the end when you feel this is as good as it can be, add finesse by manipulating your embouchure/ voicing. Have fun!
Liz Claro hm, not totally sure what you mean by decorate? But if I'm understanding closely, one good way to learn the Gershwin solo is by listening to a few recordings and try to emulate as closely as you can to the ones you like. Kind of like transcribing jazz solos :)
@@tpark89 ha ha! Why you say that? You're not that bad. By the way, I have to practice this too, It's not a straight up glissando, he passes through some high notes and gets to high above C, you saw It, right?
Thanks for the question! I tried to answer just that question in the video. Let me know if you have specific questions outside of the content of the video :)
Also, nothing is valid! Every player is different with their limits and every composer hears things differently. Just gotta try it out with the player. Also when I made these videos almost nobody around me could slap-tongue, now a LOT of people can. I'm already a dead meme!
What clarinet is this? Interesting! I noticed the finger sliding thing between f anf g# keys, I've seen this on Albert system clarinets but I don't know how's named, can you tell?
@@jimis3167 it's sort of light but definitely not the lightest. Also depends on the key figurations you get. Mine started pretty light and got heavier with some attachments.

This is an incredibly useful video. It demonstrates how the 2 octave glissando at the beginning of Rhapsody in Blue can be executed.
I keep squeaking.
BackstageFan Good, keep trying!!
You are a good instructor, very informative. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words :) Happy glissing!
Fantastic. Thanks a lot.
Thank you! :)
You're welcome, thank you very much for watching!
good video love from china
Very informative. Thank you very much!
Thank YOU so much for watching and commenting :)
Yo, I have been playing clarinet for 12 years, and I have tried to gliss, but I just squeak. Like it is nearly impossible to do.

nice, now I will not put a descending glissando in my composition
… and thank you again…
yo tony, is it possible to do downwards?
Tsuchikiyo Tsu possible but a little trickier I find
@@tpark89 awesome thanks dude... really love your tutorial videos !!
love ur vids
Thank you, glad you enjoyed them:)
That's a weird clarinet for sure

What an interesting instrument! What kind of clarinet is this? Some kind of reform Boehm? What’s the manufacturer?
Schwenk&Seggelke
Oh wow those are nice but super expensive ... must be a joy to play it
What brand of clarinet do you use/have?
Josh C. M1000 by Schwenk und Seggelke :)
The barrel is made by Ryan Pereira of Pereira 3D!
Josh C. You mean, what make is the clarinet, not what brand.
Hello Friend! help me, I play music reading the score, I can not decorate, play without reading, can you tell me how I can study to decorate a score?
Liz Claro hm, not totally sure what you mean by decorate? But if I'm understanding closely, one good way to learn the Gershwin solo is by listening to a few recordings and try to emulate as closely as you can to the ones you like. Kind of like transcribing jazz solos :)
Tony Park I think she wanted to know how to add smears into a piece that doesn't already have them written in the music.
Martin Frost makes a fantastic glissando in the end of Concert Fantastique, you should watch It! It goes up to contra C.
Hi Georgia, thanks for the suggestion. I made this for the "masses" and not really for Martin Frost and his colleagues haha. :)
@@tpark89 I know you made It for general people clarinetists, I just suggest you to watch that..
@@jimis3167 pretty cool stuff! Pretty sure my wife would kick me out of the house if I practiced that at home XD
@@tpark89 ha ha! Why you say that? You're not that bad. By the way, I have to practice this too, It's not a straight up glissando, he passes through some high notes and gets to high above C, you saw It, right?
@@jimis3167 Because it's very high (not because I'm bad lol). I think those are the notes only some clarinet players like XD
Any valid basic principles to go by when trying to write a clarinet gliss? (a range, interval limit or something)

This was the M1000 by Schwenk und Seggelke. Boehm system with a wrap around register key and a pinky roller.
@@tpark89 These Schwenk und Seggelke are the lightest (light weight) clarinets of all, right?
@@jimis3167 it's sort of light but definitely not the lightest. Also depends on the key figurations you get. Mine started pretty light and got heavier with some attachments.
@@tpark89 Do you know which brand creates the lightest Boehm clarinets?
@@jimis3167 no. But in general student clarinets are lighter.
Molto chiaro
Grazie mille!
@@tpark89 prego
Could you drop the notes of this rhapsody?
Hi Tapac, what do you mean by "drop the notes?" Thank you for your comment!
@@tpark89 I mean throw in the notes of this rhapsody
@@ТарасГромяк-и9ь Oh, I see! It is very easy to find at imslp.org under Rhapsody In Blue :)
@@tpark89 thanks
