I badly play the opening Clarinet solo to Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue"

With no correlation (I think) to St Patricks day which happens to be today I attempt the clarinet solo that open George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. You may critique away lol

[@AspieOld]

At least you actually did the gliss

[@pastelx326]

it took me a whole year to get it like him 😥

[@evanbonannomusic]

Doesnt matter how long it takes as long as the determination is there to achieve what you want! Makes it all worth it in the end

[@lyndafoster9437]

Better than I can play it. We have to just keep perfecting it. Good job 🎼🎵🎵👍🏻

[@sandeejs]

I'm in awe!

[@evanbonannomusic]

Thanks!

[@jeffreyugochukwu1942]

It wasn't that bad. You only missed some trills between the times 0:18 - 0:27 (you were supposed to do the A to B flat (G to A flat in concert pitch) trill 3 times and same with the the D to B flat (C to D flat in concert pitch) trill), but other than that, it was pretty decent :'))

[@addchannelname5408]

I have most of it down, its just the gliss that keeps getting me, yours was actually pretty good though

[@MrSouzy]

well done...,much better than I can do :)

[@paulineb66]

Better than I play it. Brave of you to put this video up for criticism.

[@bigsweat]

[@evanbonannomusic]

Thank you so much!

Je ne sais pas depuis combien d années vous pratiquez la clarinette.
Il reste une grande marge de progression, c est certain.
Musicalement c est d une tristesse à mourir.
Je vous encourage à persévérer dans les études et le travail avec la clarinette.

Evan is a leprechaun

[@evanbonannomusic]

I play tin whistle and have hat. That's probably the closest I will get to a leprechaun lmo

One thing you could have done better was hear the accompanying parts in your head as you played and have enough break time in between phrases to let those play. You played too soon after each break, it messed up those accompanying parts playing in my head.

Badly indeed.

[@patrickmiller7583]

A for effort

[@justinlum1396]

Good try :)

Tienes que seguir estudiando hermano.

[@evanbonannomusic]

He seguido estudiando y practicando mucho más el clarinete desde que hice este video. Todavía tengo mucho que aprender, pero mientras tanto me he vuelto mucho mejor como músico. ¡Gracias por comentar y ver mi video! También me disculpo si mi español no es bueno. estoy tratando de aprender el idioma
