Everyone has is own vision of what is music... Berio himself dedicated a beautiful television program to the question "What is music?", meaning that is not such a simple matter nor something to judge people
This is fantastic!! I'm currently working on the viola Sequenza and its almost impossible so I was curious how "impossible" the other Sequenzas were. Seems like they're all equally insane
My reaction ranges from, "What the hell am I listening to?" to under amazement and fascination. My clarinet has everything except the low Eb key. I'm not sure I could play this anyway. I know my scales (including chromatic), arpeggios (thirds, fourth, etc....) and can double tongue but have doubts. I enjoyed doing trills like in G, but also "bends" and "growls" (M) because it bugged my stand partner :-D
Beautiful playing at the same time you're conquering all the technical landmines Mr. Berio has planted. It's quite an engrossing piece of music. Speaking of atonal clarinet music, do you know Donald Martino's. Set for Clarinet ( I may have the title wrong)?
Sure! I know the Martino set. Played it a few years ago. I'm now really getting into much more extended technique and otherwise extreme music to perform, so I don't know if I will play it in the near future at all. Check out the contemporary works on my channel if you're curious what I'm up to recently!
Actually, there's a whole lot of "tonality by assertion" going on in this. The real obvious tonal center is the high B-flat during the latter portion of the piece.
Incredible recording! I'm curious about the multiphonics around letters J and K. I imagine you're using the fingerings indicated since you don't actually play the notated pitches. I have an earlier version of the score that provides fingerings for the Full Boehm keywork. Is it impossible to sound the notated pitches unless you're playing Full Boehm?
Yes, the pitches are impossible unless it is Full Boehm. I have heard various arguments over the multiphonics, ranging from supposedly Berio's saying "play any two slightly different multiphonics" to having specific alternatives. I just tried finding something that felt somewhat appropriate harmonically and also had a bit of a gentler tone to it.
Gleb Kanasevich Thanks for addressing this. I began working on this piece years ago, but I gave it up when I saw those multiphonics. I'll dig it out of my pile and see if I can make some music out of this.
The 2 craziest things in the piece were the glissandi at M (no freaking idea how to do these on the instrument) and the (hard to bear) "Bb fortissimo attacks". Sorry Gleb, you can't but play it, as the composer is to blame for "committing" it. :P There is one contemporary cycle I remember that has these "tinnitus attacks" too, and that is Ligeti's 10 Pieces for Wind Quintet (IX Sostenuto in particular, you have been warned :p). However, whenever Ligeti wants this sound, he writes it like 'ffff' ;)
@ excusez moi quel est le problème ? J’aime beaucoup cette version et je prépare un examen avec ce morceau, les notes me permettent de retrouver plus facilement des passages que je souhaite travailler :) ce n’est en aucun cas méchant Bonne journée
Gleb Kanasevich non credo proprio! Anzi temo che col suo raffinato savoir fare manderebbe (lui non io beninteso) letteralmente a fanculo taluni compositori! Sicuramente difficoltà esecutiva estrema, ma altrettanto estremo a mio parere è quello che si è sviluppato (violentato..?..) dalla dodecafonia in poi, così come nell'arte in generale....P.S. Ognuno è libero di apprezzare o meno, ma affermare "di dover crescere" sottintendendo una pochezza conoscitiva, mi pare semplicemente un pregiudizio da "parruccone" del terzo millennio!
there must be double stops not multiphonics, but the fingerings doesn't fit with pitches - there must be something wrong with the score. this piece was written for a descending clarinet, and the fingerings for the double stops involved the low Eb keys, the tone quality is completely different: I find it difficult to think that Berio choose these fingerings in order to sobstitute the original double stops (there are several similar ones in that zone onf the instrument). th-cam.com/video/8M0TWF-07H0/w-d-xo.html here you have a version with double stops - these aren't the written ones as well (since he is useing a clarinet without the low Eb) but are closer in tone to those originally written by Berio and here you have a version with the correct double stops of sequenza IXa th-cam.com/video/2oyEHQFPFyo/w-d-xo.html you can see that the written notes are the same he is playing and are nothing more than the transposition of clarinet's ones. I see that the fingering you are useing according to the score can't produce anything like this... so I'm curious about the story of those fingerings (that aren't the original ones for the descending clarinet)... who knows who chose them? and how could they appear in an edition? did Berio accept them (this would be really strange)? do you know something about? to be clear: I'm not critcizing you or your performance (that's pretty good)! you did a choice according to what you've found in the score....
th-cam.com/video/EGWUm2INb3s/w-d-xo.html this is Ciro Scarponi's version - quite strangely he used a clarinet without the low Eb (that he certainly had) probabily in order to have the alternative fingering for the low C - he uses double stops and he surely worked with Berio himself hence I'd say this could be the most relevant source :)
If you have issues and will throw around petty insults, please take it up with recording companies and other professional clarinetists (double my age) for trying to monetize my recording (which I made, mind you, as an undergraduate about ten years ago). Thank you for bringing up the ads splitting the track. I would just appreciate it if it were done with more tact in a public forum.
@@glebvic Sorry if you weren‘t responsible for those adds, I am fighting these kinds of assaults myself all the time. Yes, I do have issues with greed in art and I don‘t think they are petty at all. Good luck fighting off the copy-sharks.
This is a stunning performance. You brought out the music.
Geez Gleb, You completely slayyed this piece! Now I'm inspired to play it.
LOVE that the score is visible. Inspiring for some art I'm working on.
Well done ! Nice tone and great technique. It is way more difficult than it sounds...bravo Gleb!
I came for Necrophagist but stayed for Berio. Great playing!
what has is to do with necrophagist ?
thank you very much for the score. Bravo, great performance !
absolutely amazing! bravo
Thank you!

Terrific performance. Well done!
This is an absolute banger
Thanks for the score and the upload!
Beautiful performance!
Thank you for uploading.
I love this piece! :) Sounds amazing

Formidable, merci !
hauntingly beautiful
+VKKO Orchester Thanks, guys!!
so great Gleb!
Thanks for the score, very interesting!
Great performance!
really beautifull !
Chapeau !
Superb !
Capolavoro!!!!
beautiful
Although I'm more familiar with the Sequenza IXb for alto saxophone, the clarinet version sounds very good. Bravo!
squidward been real quiet since this dropped
thanks for sharing
Very very impressive.
Que coisa linda!
Muy buena ejecución!
Bravissimo!
thankyou ,

Concert Ab for the rest of us
I hear it in C major/minor so the Abs are a little like flat sixths to me.
Incredible recording!

I play Patricola Virtuoso 2 model gold plated.

Hi, i was wondering if you have the score for sequenza I for solo flute.
I would appreciate very much if you could send me a copy of it.
Mozart o chi per esso si rivolterebbe nella tomba! Questa sarebbe musica?!?
Mozart era l'ultimo punk. Sono sicuro che è estasiato nella sua tomba. È ora di crescere, amico mio.
Gleb Kanasevich non credo proprio! Anzi temo che col suo raffinato savoir fare manderebbe (lui non io beninteso) letteralmente a fanculo taluni compositori! Sicuramente difficoltà esecutiva estrema, ma altrettanto estremo a mio parere è quello che si è sviluppato (violentato..?..) dalla dodecafonia in poi, così come nell'arte in generale....P.S. Ognuno è libero di apprezzare o meno, ma affermare "di dover crescere" sottintendendo una pochezza conoscitiva, mi pare semplicemente un pregiudizio da "parruccone" del terzo millennio!
@@SergioMysteryman Penso che tu debba solo lavorare sulle tue insicurezze che esiste un mondo al di fuori del tuo. Buona fortuna :)
Gleb Kanasevich Insicurezze?? Esistono tanti "mondi" nel campo dell'arte....ognuno poi fa suo ciò che più gli aggrada.

Check out "Swathe" by Ian Power ;) haha
I prefer Dorival Caymmi watch?v=bpZLR8T4tqM
I thought it would be Caymmi on clarinet... Non-sense como ninguéeeeem...
Pessima.
Pause lunghe e pessima getione della velocità🍛
opinabile
SO atonal
The piece got interrupted by adds. That's not acceptable. If you are so greedy, play pop music or join the republican party.
