tyyy ive grown to hate it cause wr played it all semester 💀💀

@@jacksondecanio omg noo that’s unfortunate 😭 literally gave me flashbacks to pomp and circumstance lmao

lower your jaw. similar to getting low notes on Bb or bass. spend some time doing long tones down in that lower register. make sure you are taking in more mouthpiece too having your mouth close where the reed meets the mpc

@@jacksondecanio ok i’ll do that, thanks so much!!

@@jacksondecanioi actually also just noticed it now, where you guys sang the “ah” was actually beautiful. you did it amazing!!

@@lanalikesheavymetal the singing was awful i hope never again lol

@@jacksondecanio real tho. once we had to do it and the 1st chairs had the choir melody or whatever its called behind the lows and being 1st chair clairy was so much pain. you did really well though!<3

YAAASSSSS

@@jacksondecanioWAIT HAVE YALLS DID THE HIVE BEFORE

thankssssss that was my first time doing a solo just off changes

@@jacksondecanio no problemm!! jazz is the bestttt hope u keep doing it🫶🏻

Eb player was so cool ;))

For your first question, you are getting the overtone coming through on those low notes, this is a common issue I see with a lot of people when starting on bass clarinet/clarinet and trying to play low. This may seem odd, but try to lower the back of your throat when you are down lower along with loosening your embouchure. As for the starting notes squeaking, that is all in your embouchure. Usually that one is caused by either blowing too much, being too far on the mouthpiece, or being to tense or tight. Hope this helps but if you have any more questions let me know. :))

yayyyy those tremolos where really annoying

⁠@@jacksondecanioomg i’m sooo late but you still did rly good on them!! i could never, my poor mouth would ascend to heaven💀💀

The original piece in the score is written for contrabass, which is what my director originally sent to me, but I only have a contralto and so I transposed Bb to Eb, but on my computer I only had the Bb part saved to use in the video cause I deleted the transposition.

ya the gotta make sure they are perfect

Listen to e flat clarinet part 😂

favorite instrument ❤️❤️

Thank you so much!!! This piece was so fun but hard to with the upper register in the wind transcription

it is absolutely gorgeous

yes but in a different group

it can take a while at the start but really depends on the person

the middle school music for it may be a lil boring at times but it gets to be so fun

@@jacksondecanio yeah i've heard. again, so cool!

same

awwwwww tyyy

I try lol

lmao

o ya that glock there was kinda rough to count through first time we ran through lol

you got this bass clarinet takes a lot of time once its time for the clarion register

Thank You 😊 took a lot of time to get to this point

Your hard work is definitely paying off. @@jacksondecanio

ty :))

Real as a bari sax I can confirm that I am so happy to have a bass clarinet when I am playing

same

imagine the bari sax part as this but + 2 solos and more playing its crazy like that

Kevin Day

thats how you know its a good piece

luckily school provides it so i dont have to pay the crazy costs

but it is old

@@jacksondecanio what model is it?

um leblanc something contra alto

i forget the exact model but it is one of the US ones

Ya i plan on making these vids for concert from now on :)) all just depends on how often they happen

o ya i hate them

@@jacksondecanioI was like why can I not hear the first set? And then I saw the key signature and understood 😂

Its Dancing Fire by Kevin Day and the score is on his website

It’s a piece my friend, not a song.
