  • Playing Sleigh Ride by Leroy Anderson with the Clovis HS Symphony Orchestra at Paul Shaghoian Concert Hall, December 9, 2022. Decided I upload a video playing it with the algorithm pushing a lot of videos similar to this. Hope you enjoy! Also, my tuning is bad and my staring is bad too so don’t pay attention to it thank you very much

      there is an eb clarinet part! although i think they played extra parts (probably from the alto sax part, judging by their neck strap)
      the actual eb part has a lot less than this, just the trills, triplets, and second phrase of the jazz part (+other small parts)
      they sound great tho!

    Really nice. Played clarinet for many years in grade school through college. Never tried an Eb, though. It's sooo tiny! Like you, I doubled up on a couple other woodwinds - sax and bassoon. Those were fun times. (I assume you also play sax from that strap around your neck.)

  • @Clarinetman62
    @Clarinetman62 ปีที่แล้ว +39

    Great job on Eb for a young player. Don’t forget besides playing right notes and correct articulations, dynamics are very important. There were many
    places where there should of been crescendos and decrescendos. Everything was one dynamic. You weren’t the only one, the whole ensemble. But you’re doing a great job. Keep up the good work. You definitely have the talent.
