That's what happens when a guy just loves not only "practicing," but in really figuring out how to drive that machine - the many noises it can make - and how they might be used expressively. Really beautiful.
Truly a great clarinetist - to needlessly reiterate a now very familiar observation. I remember many of all those late evenings during the early 90:s when we were practicing in adjacent rooms at the (Stockholm) conservatory, where his brother also studied; actually, some odd chromatic runs - part of some contemporary piece - that he practiced "almost eternally" on his clarinet are still engraved in my acoustic memory... Memories can be so vivid and precise, sometimes; spooky!
Amazing! His absolute mastery of the instrument, used so beautifully in the service of the music, his freedom and creativity, his inspiration from so many genres... Wow! And, how often are you going to hear such a free-wheeling improvisation on "Nature Boy!"
Gotta love Frost!! He's definitely my favourite Clarinetist. Not sure who labeled this to be an "improvisation", though... it's really just the cadenza from the Arnold Concerto No. 2, with some random bits excerpted from the Aho cadenza at the beginning and near the end. After 1:00 he practically plays the Arnold cadenza top to bottom uninterrupted while railing through pauses. The recording featuring this cadenza was released at least 10 years ago.
eres el mejor martin lo mas grande de un clarinetista. solo quero saver como consigues esos efectos raros ascendentes que hazes avezes y ya esta jeje gracias saludos
@MICHaeLDIZZLE He is playing it on his own. Only two ways of doing that that I know of - singing and playing at the same time, or multiphonics, where you do things like play thumb F and almost overblow into high C, but not quite, so you are doing both at the same time.
It isn't physically possible to improvise like that first encore. That has to be a piece he has written. If you listen to his piece Ala Humana you will notice many similarities. Maybe it was rehearsed.....
