Bravo

This music looks good on this chilly winter morning! From South Korea.

Question Are you using a cane or synthetic reed. Should I make a switch?

your tone is IMMACULATE

DANG i was complaining about region and district audition music and the 8th graders told me the clarinet lyrical and technical were the same as the high school all state music. 32nd notes at 132 bpm doesnt sound too bad now

2nd

1st time me documenting every time I listen to this

very nice

In bar twelve, do you play F# in the run, or F natural? He plays F#, but others play F natural.

Im sorry for touching my clarinet and not being from texas for band

Seeing the excitement on your face after that last note was awesome, must be very satisfying lol

brilliant!

Very nice. What makes or breaks a performance of this piece is how the strings handle the four half-notes at the very beginning. Yes, they are marked with a single "slur" but they have to be projected to the listener AS four notes. This group does it perfectly! Very few others that I've sampled on youtube seem aware of the challenge (or able to meet it).

what clarinet model are you playing in this?

Awesome, you are wonderful!

From which book is this?

how

Nice video 😅😢😮😮😮😅😅😅

does texas have all students play the same etudes to audition?

Needs a steady metronome. He’s all over the place ! Sorry 😎. My teacher at U of H would have kicked me out of my lesson for that

Thank you.

damn. i don't even play the clarinet (pianist here) but DAYUMMMMMMMM he has my infinite respect.

he learned it in ONE DAY HOW

DAWG IT HAS ONLY BEEN ONE FUCKIN DAY. LET US BREATH PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏

I know you are a student at the Curtis Institute, however I’m kind of hoping you already knew this etude, or had spent more than a day practicing this etude because I spent the past six hours yesterday practicing this etude only to play through the entire piece at half the tempo haha.

Fantastic! Congratulations!

Ottima interpretazione e ottima fluidità sonora. Continua così con semplicità e grandi aspettative. Bravo

I'm an amateur pianist in the midst of studying this piece. I have tons of respect for this performance and for this arrangement for clarinet. This is such a beautiful and dramatic reading, as well as of course incredibly skilled. Difficult as this piece is on keyboard, I can only imagine the challenge on clarinet. I was prepared for a lot of simplification, but what amazed me was how much of the piece is playable on the instrument and how it remains every bit in the spirit of the original.

Amazing
