Hi! Thank you for your insights! From these three I played only Cavallini. His capricci are lovely indeed, and as far as I know they use the thematic material from his other pieces and thus constitute pieces that worthwhile spending time on them working on your interpretation. Two other books you talk about, which I haven't played, sound more like sets of exercises. Why didn't you mention Jeanjean 16 and 18? Some of those are so brilliantly written pieces that as to me deserve not only time spent in the practice room but public performance as well!
Thank you! You’re right - they are indeed worthy of performance. To be honest I’ve never explored his other works. I guess I should! As for JeanJean - absolutely! I did speak about them, as well as Jettel’s Accomplished Clarinettist, but the video was getting rather long, so I restricted it just to these three books. (And the Vade Mecum was my daily warmup for several years - note the thumb prints on the pages in the video 😂) Thanks for your comment ❤️
Absolutely. I’m aware of a lot of these things you mention - but as I’m trying to keep these videos around ten minutes, there’s only so many things I put in each video. Thanks for the comment!
Absolutely! They are fantastic, and live permanently on the little table next to my music stand. I chose the three I did because of the letter J (and because I thought “jCavallini” sounded funny and I wanted an Italian example as well). Thanks for watching!
I didn’t know he asked for help from Jettel! I did know he wasn’t a clarinettist though - and I incorrectly said he was… I just went with the joke but didn’t noticed my mistake until after I’d recorded it 😂
I learnt a lot. Tx
I’m glad! Thanks for watching :)
Yes please do a session on the history of the clarinet. And and the evolution of styles techniques!!
Thank you - I’ll add it to the list! I also love talking about music history in general (apart from the clarinet). Any favourite topics?
Nothing pop or modern .Latin afro influence on classic and obviously jazz .the world is huge and we seem only to focus on western styles.
I’ll see what I can come up with!
J is for journaling. It allows better organization of your practice time.
Ooh! That’s a great one - thanks!

In the Handsworth thesis you will read the shameful nazification in the Vienna Phil and about Uhl's activities during the war.
Great content, thanks so much for sharing the discussion 🎶
Thanks Krispin! Lovely to hear from you!
Top notch video Phil!👌
Haha thanks mate - appreciate your kind words!
Very interesting discussion, thanks for posting.
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the comment :)
Wonderful insight. I love the statement that we use technique.
I wonder if K will be Klosé. Can’t wait to find out.
Thank you! I can guarantee you that it is NOT Klose… but maybe it should be!

Thanks for your comment ❤️
Be also aware that the Vienna style also differs from the German way of playing. Different reeds and mouthpiece lay and sometime a wider bore

Practical tutor for the clarinet Otto Langey?
Another good one! For this video I used the letter J as a starting point, but I like the Langley too.
What about Klose and the Baermann etudes???

Are you familiar with the fact that Alfred Uhl was not a clarinetist himself and needed Jettel to help him.
I didn’t know he asked for help from Jettel! I did know he wasn’t a clarinettist though - and I incorrectly said he was… I just went with the joke but didn’t noticed my mistake until after I’d recorded it 😂
Read the thesis The pedagogical value of the Uhl Etudes by an Austalian guy an the Nazification of the Wiener orchestra
I will! I know Peter Handsworth, so I'll read it with great interest. Thanks!

Can't use what we don't have!
Haha! Good point! I think I mean the sentiment behind it rather than the words :)
