bravo!!! cmqe tosca e non tasca ......

Nobody asked for my opinion but I am going to give it anyway. FOR HIM, The 56 And the blue box work fantastic. My favourite for him is the 56.

Merci 😇... Grâce à votre vidéo j'ai pu me faire un avis sérieux sur cette tradition Buffet Crampon il ne me reste plus qu'à économiser pour me l'offrir encore merci 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Hello! For comparison: Vandoren M13 Lyre, BG Revelation Ligature, 66 mm Chadash barrel for a 1960s Buffet R13. Reeds are drawn from a range including VanDoren, D'Addario, VanDoren RLP, Gonzalez, Zonda (dates of purchase mostly 2020-2021). I haven't gotten to newer boxes yet, but they include V21s as well...based on your findings, I am looking forward to V21s. If it doesn't work on this mouthpiece/barrel, the reed may work on a different combination. Zonda are tricky to adjust to this particular setup, but it is nice to try something outside of the comfort zone, when the stakes are low. Have fun!

Skills

Interesting, you also pair a Tradition Bb and Tosca A. I find they are quite similar in the ways that matter. Beautiful playing as always, Sam.

I've only played 2 Prestiges before; wildly different from each other. One is less resistant, more even, and projects better, while the other one is, well, the opposite. I play a B45 with a 3 or 3½, so having that body in the sound build into the instrument definitely helps. Looking forward to trying a Tosca whenever I can, though!

We miss you Sam!!!

That's my teacher!

Hello my friend. Blanck, spine, tip, vamp profile and filed. What is this and which is easier to play?

Ps. I love this video. I don’t know how many times I heard this. Thank you. Every success with this great series of videos and you own playing. God bless you and yours. Bill. Uk 🎶

Very good plying. Hey can you please say your practise book name

Terrific !❤

I have used blue box reeds since I started playing and love them

V12 3.5plus FTW

As a first year player i play on the blue box reeds size 3 and with some sort of yamaha mouthpeice ( i rented the whole instrument so i do not know the specifics) if any of you have tips about clairanet in general please share them

My favorite reed was the Rue Lepic!!! It's tone quality was soo warm, and the articulations were very smooth, whereas the v12(I think) had the slightest muddy notes. I don't usually use Vandoren reeds because of how hard they are, but I'm looking forward to using those Rue Lepic reeds. It may also be just the camera, but I did notice a bit of air in the Rue Lepic. As a clarinet player, I do believe it is just the camera. Great work, and you're a fabulous clarinet player! Keep it up!

From what you hear, it seems that the mouthpiece-reed combination is generating an inflexible, heavy and colorless sound. Those "undesirable" harmonics are the ones that would be missing to give it life and projection. Thank you for sharing your opinion

Bellooooo

I love buffet! I’m still a semi-pro player so I play on a Royal Global bass clarinet until I can justify the jump to a Tosca

What about Yamaha bass clarinet ?

Nota dez mestre.

I love my silver and find it doesn’t slip. The nickel slips but I just lightly sand the heel and now no slipping!

hello can I ask what is this tuner app you used？

She's full of herself and overrated. People simply don't understand how high the standards are in Europe and Asia.

fico❤

Playing a total of 43 years, (23 years with USAF Bands) I use a Vandoren 5JB for jazz clarinet. I use a traditional blue box 3 and 3.5. I use a 1920's German Silver ligature with Heart shaped screws. For classical I use a Selmer HS*

What does 3.5+ mean as opposed to 3.5 in general?

I liked the tone of the gold Bonad.

Where can I find the score?

Thanks for the tips.

Gracias. Buen calentamiento.

Thank you for taking us through this well-strategized warm-up routine. But what is up with the MIDI saxophone music? As a woodwind player, you should hang your head in shame for using this music for your video. Doesn’t exactly provide much inspiration for playing long tones, either.

No.1 rule, play the most in demand instrument. Dump the violin, piano…….stick to something like the Oboe. Be a realist, the world of professional music is a small place. Then you grow up and realise that the banks won’t touch you when your applying for a mortgage because of your short term contract…….ah the hard reality starts to set in. So you end up teaching on crap money and trying to get by while maybe dreaming of a TH-cam channel, joining thousands of other music channels out there. Which is why my son is fully aware of the hard realities of being a professional musician, and will only ever do it as an interest.

Good interview 👏🏼👏🏼

Вот так я и просидел с этим кларнетом 8 лет в музыкальной школе((

Im new listener so I'm not catching on the difference it all sounds good to me. Maybe after some practice I'll notice the differences.😊

I know I’m very late for the party, but I couldn’t help but notice how the etude mindset is VERY different compared to here in Texas. Musicality almost doesn’t mean anything, it’s all about technique and sounding the most impressive. You almost outright get punished for attempting to be expressive, it’s preposterous, they only look for machines. I HATE it! It will only install bad habits in our state’s future musicians. If you didn’t sound like this guy in the link, you weren’t going to make all state haha. th-cam.com/video/82IBi5r87HM/w-d-xo.html

What about Selmer ?

Great control and sound

I play on a Vandoren B-45 mouthpiece and a Rovner ligature. I have used V-12 reeds for quite a lot of years. They are responsive and generally consistent. When I started using them, someone pointed out to me that the cane used in making Vandoren reeds was more dense than the cane in Rico reeds. At first they seemed hard to break in, but now I have no problems with them.

Hey Sam! What was the reason why you chose a non-Series 13 BD5 mouthpiece?

Gracias Mtro

Thank you for the video!! I have 56 v12 and traditional, and I feel the v12 and the traditional reeds sound better for the high notes. I don’t know if it’s only me but I find 56 easier to play but sounds a bit thin on the high note. I’m using Vandoren b45 mouthpiece and I’m playing 2.5 strength for 56, and 2.5/3 for v12 and traditional.

Great video and thanks for all that you do. I will be trying clarinets this summer and am sort of lost about which temperature you should do this test. I watched your interview with Michael Wayne and am curious if you play the twelfths straight out of the case or if you get the instrument very warm or somewhere in between. Thank you!

This video seems to highlight the difference in the warmth of the reeds especially well. I feel like a lot of videos have recordings where they all sound pretty much the same and then you hear all the sudden from the player that “oh this reed was so much brighter than this reed, and this reeds articulation suck” etc, and you’re left quite confused. I like to think that this is the difference an audience member would hear, for when I play I just think I sound like garbage lol. Great video though! I have recently been playing on 56 with my BD5 mouthpiece and I think I’m getting good results!

Amazing Sam and thanks share yours exercices.

hi, what mouthpiece you play?

Thanks for this Sam!
