I actually just read that now. I do want to try this now. Well, I guess I already did want to. But now that's a challenge and I'm gonna win. Maybe in a couple of years, but I'm still gonna win.
@@nwarfare2123 Remember though, most if not all of this piece is articulated, and there are quite a few sections where you can't slur your way out of a tight spot.

The double tonguing can be considered professional level, but I’m able to do it and no one pays me. As for the 3:32 it is actually easier than the double tonguing. Just practise it slowly and slowly add speed, and learn to play it in a speedier tempo than it actually is played in and that should help play it.
@@saturn-pu1oj just asking do you play clarinet or do you play brass? Cause double tonguing on clarinet is hard AF. I learned triple tonguing in 2 minutes for brass. I still can't do it on clarinet
I'd say this is kind of fun on a b flat trumpet, which is what I play. But, this looks super hard on clarinet, which I have tried practicing. Unfortunately, I'm bad with reed instruments.
@@rgibeli hmm have you tried using as much air as possible? Because if you use a lot of air and it comes out then it could simply be a using enough air problem
Screw breathing Edit: OMFG it’s actually possible. There’s a video from a guy called Steele Jackson where someone actually plays it which is definitely worth a watch if you’re a clarinettist (it’s slowed down a little tho 😂) (th-cam.com/video/h8Lex_Lfm9s/w-d-xo.html)
some advice: this score is originally for trumpet (cornet). Some stuff need double tonguing on clarinet which is really hard, plus the tempo is quite fast. Variation IV is just purely infeasible on clarinet.
the mechanical structure of a clarinet won't allow you do that fast from a lower register note to upper register notes (i.e. B and C) which you need to press the left-hand register key. The recording of the cornet version (which i have listened for many times) cannot even do the variation 4 clearly on every single note; however, the audience can get the idea. Second, I did not say a trombone can do this.
Variation 4 is supposed to be completely slurred except for the melody notes, it’s just not written in there. Also on the fast part of variation 3 it’s supposed to be slur 2 tongue 2, so both are completely possible, the slurs just aren’t put in on this video
I mean, for violins, if you know how to shift and bow from the wrist (Ricochet would be for laughs and giggles for some phrases 😝) this would actually be fairly easy. Though in all seriousness, I can't imagine double tounging that fast on a reeded instrument later on in the piece, granted, there would probably be more slurs. At the same time, this could be theme and variations as an etude for tonguing to develop ripped tongues😂
The part where it jumps down and then up one octave is easy in the eyes of other instruments. But with the clarinet, the fingering is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I love my instrument, but sometimes it feels impossible.
From a non clarinet player's perspective, it doesn't seem impossible... until you look at the clarinet graveyard that is this comment section that assures you that it very much is impossible
100% possible, as a clarinet player it look like one of the easier pieces. the composer has a slow tempo so the notes look faster, and therefore it looks harder
My friend played this on Euphonium for a competition mainly for concert bands but had a bracket for the soloists and ensembles and she knocked it out of the park! I think it was during Variation 3 where you have the long lines of demisemiquavers she managed to turn the page WHILE STILL PLAYING (you have to hold the Euphonium with both hands otherwise it's too much pressure and you'll hurt your hand) and our whole band went ballistic that she pulled it off so effortlessly. She won the soloist bracket. We were all incredibly proud.
Yeah cuz nobody ever played it I believe, I think it's actually just a song that was originally for instruments with insanely good note playing like violin
The Deadly Lioness Same!! I’m in the Symphonic Band at my school and I thought I was kinda average, but I’d *absolutely ball my eyes out if I had to play this.*
This is pretty playable to a certain extent, at var1 it starts gettting unnecessarily crazy, 16th note triplets and 16th notes, but I think it still is possible. The next part, yeah... pretty impossible.
I was practicing this song in the past few days. It is really not impossible, but you probably have to know "La Traviata Fantasia" pretty well before you actually play this. I'd say it is possible to play as good as Musescore does, but it kinda takes a long time.
...I used to know how to read that sheet music a few years ago.. I had a really terrible childhood and I eventually fell into a really deep depression, which led to me losing interest in pretty much everything I did for fun. Except for playing my clarinet.. I actually loved playing instruments so much that I wanted to expand my knowledge and learn as many as possible... so I did. Within 6 months, I had passed every beginner class that my band class had for the Uphonium, Trombone, Oboe, trumpet, and i was working on trying the flute... but all good things eventually come to an end. My freshman year of high school I went into online schooling.. theres no band classes in an online school. I had to give back all the instruments I had rented because I wasn't a student anymore.. Music was pretty much the only thing I was interested in.. to this day I still wish I could have stayed in public school and achieved all of my goals like I wanted to.. I ended up just smoking weed 24/7 to fill the hole in my heart caused by music being gone forever.. Over the years because of my snoop doggin in my early teens I've actually started forgetting shit because my memory has gone to hell. One of those things is how to play any instrument at all. 🥲 pain.
been playing clarinet for 10 years, could probably do most of this with few practice except 4th section... would take long time. double tongueing is gross on clarinet.
The 1st chair clarinet player in my band actually played this piece, with a high level of accuracy….. probably never gonna meet another man as astoundingly skilled as he is 😳 Edit: He was a junior in high school when he played this………
I know this is going to get a lot of hate, but if you keep practicing this adding about 2-3 bpm you can actually get it. The fast parts are actually just arpeggios and scales, and it's a pretty simple key signature so its very doable, just a lot of practice. But I'll have to admit it's not humanlly possible to actually tongue these fast arts. You would have to be bob spring or something (Check out his tonguing excercises)
It sounds fantastic played on trombone-now that is a muscle memory challenge. I take my hat off to the players that can play this on any instrument. I barely get past V3 on a good day.
I am a freshman in highschool and just saw this today. I have managed to learn up to the second variation in a few hours. This is a fun piece and my pinkies are in pain.
James Sayen it's literally a transcription... Honestly the Arban is a great book to expand clarinet playing too though. Just those damn double tonguing pages...
As a clarinet player myself, I do not think this is impossible. I do believe some of the articulation would be hard, and maybe voicing in lower registers for the octave jumps, but I do believe that this can be played
But the clarinet nearly always has a more complicated part than the trombone in a concert setting, so it would make sense for this to be possible on the clarinet if it is on trombone.
Fundamentally, the two are different instruments with different mechanics--the clarinet has (lots of) keys while the trombone only has a slide. This requires almost impossible combinations of alternate fingerings and such that just are no feasible to play at such a fast tempo.
I think many of the arpeggios that are articulated in the recording are very close to impossible or would sound very bad if played. However the rest of this piece seems possible to be played. I am going to attempt to learn it and if I cannot I will return back here
The thing that would make this the biggest pain in the butt for a clarinetist would be the fact that the range is mostly high chalumeau, throat tone and clarion so the player would constantly have to be going on and off the register key..... especially during some of those runs. NUTS!!!!
So I listen to the whole thing, and it is relatively easy considering the fact that most of the piece is within the first and second octave.... And majority is chromatic fingering. The only challenge I really see has to do with tempo, expression and articulation. Hard to do but not impossible to do single tonguing, far easier to do double. I'd play around with the range too.
The only thing that gives me hope in this peice is the key signature
Im only good with the F-C-G# like g major, d major and a major

Bass clarinet is easier lol
When clarinet God mode is activated
3:17 HOW???
Splax 75 It’s just a chromatic scale... notes aren’t too hard, it’s just the tonguing. That’s impossible.
Yeah
It’s actually possible with double/triple tonguing
This was played by computer...
I know I’m not stupid bruh...
I swear those dsmn accidentals are gonna be the death of all of us
Oh heck no
3 minutes in and that was all I needed to realize I could never
I was like “this must be incredibly easy for clarinet,” then I remembered clarinets can’t double tongue.
I remember having a lot of fun with this one high school in the 60's. There are a couple challenging passages, but nothing really difficult.
God i love the music community 😂
Just imagine this for trombone

Fernando Herrera The notes aren’t hard, it’s just the tonguing. I can’t do that.
