[@colehanson9861]

11 years later, this is still INSANE

[@hasauka]

absolutely

[@jimis3167]

Out of this world, love It is a small word!😂

[@Leomerya12]

I have to say that even though this sounds impressive on the violin, the fact that he can mimic the effect to this extent on the clarinet impresses me like never before.

[@LeonardoDiGirolamo]

16 years later he's still insane

[@이승민-e1l]

11 years later, this is still legendary.

[@crazydhesi]

I swear Mate Bekavac is THE most underrated clarinet player ever!!!

[@MrGellert619]

I can understand why so many people don't like his interpretation, as it is something way out of the box, but you have to realize that his play is masterful and also an indicator, that we still don't know the limits of the clarinet play, which will eventually lead to other miraculous virtuosos to push these limits even beyond our immagination. amazingly interpreted, bravo.

[@emilianoturazzi]

I completely agree. I can't but admire his playing even if I don't like the piece too much... musically talking it's just a virtuoso showcase, but... what an hell of virtuoso!

[@jimis3167]

If you are a clarinetist, It's impossible to not like this.

[@jimis3167]

If you are a clarinetist, It's impossible to not like this.

[@roxannjensen1261]

Mate makes playing those killer high notes sound SO easy!

[@jimis3167]

By far the best Carmen I've ever heard and one of the best clarinetists. Very unique playing, I appreciate it!

[@tond3244]

HIs control is just incredible!

[@IssaRefai]

Unnatural musician Repeatable musician Something beautiful and wonderful I enjoyed listening to it

[@tejerajazz]

Bekavac, one of the best clarinet players in the world. Incredible!!

[@imrichsarkozy]

For me the best opened the possibilities of the clarinet world Thank you.

[@ricoclar]

Nunca me canso de escuchar este vídeo. I'm never tired listening this video, bravo Mate!!!

[@plutokiss]

Be right back, I'm going to go die from the awesomeness of this.

[@LaniBanani]

Just as stunning listening to this 6 years later!

[@tinykarin]

I LOVE EVERYTHING you play Mate. You are a GENIUS!! You make my heart leap and rejoice. Amazing!!

[@yenigehovanness]

The people who don’t like the recording can’t play it. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@yenigehovanness]

And if they can…they should a submit a recording. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@galido_]

​@@yenigehovannessI dont know if you play clarinet, i do. And many clarinetists like Nocolas Balderou, Martin frost..... are all bad musicians and clarinetists. The balderou carmen version is bad and its offending with how bad it is. Yes its true everebody here that is hating this, either cant play like this or they dont know anything about music. Im planing on playing Carmen in the future, so maybe one day you will see my performance online if i post it "if".

[@galido_]

I cant name you one clarinetist that plays like this, only Mate. and i cant say my father because he isnt known, and doesnt have any videos, he sttoped practising consistently, and im saying it because Mate himself called him to study in his school, but my father was poor then and could afford to go.

[@dodddd29383]

nice playing, especially in that he tried to capture the feeling of the original violin piece while still maintaining the clarinet tone in the lower register.

[@SkipSax]

What a pleasure to see the clarinet explored so completely here. I have no idea who this modern virtuoso is but I completely respect his technique and flexibility in all ranges. You only need hear Dave Tarras recordings to appreciate the different tone colors available to the clarinet. Whether Klezmer, Goodman or Mozart - talent is talent. Hats off to this cat!

[@병도나]

얌마 이게 어케 클라냐.

[@Franclarinet]

Non ci sono parole per descrivere sto talento innato! vedo che usa anche i denti per i sovracuti! Bravo!

[@LugosiTibor]

Amazing game modes! Clarinet with great knowledge and power. This is the future. Congratulations. Lugosi Tibor

[@claclawolverine]

troppo allucinante per essere vero!!! bravissimo, espressivo, veloce, pulito...complimenti

[@atmanirena1394]

Mate,du bist der grösste unter Größen auf der wellt....genialster, begnadeter ,Künstler Musiker aller Zeiten, du bist Gott so nahe..... danke dir ,du machst mich komplett erfüllt von Kunst ,die du schenkst bis zum letzten Blut Tropfen ....möge dich Gott beschützen und dir schenken,was du brauchst....

[@PedroVelasco1477580603]

excelente gracias por existir este tipo de musica

[@tallrob11]

i just died and went to heaven!!!!! I'm crying!!!!!! I remember the first time I heard Charles Neidich play Zigunerweisen...spelling?... Amazing!!! Love when people say oh its not possible on the clarinet?? lol

[@xXcaronXx]

Wow....that's pretty amazing...

[@ROGER14850]

Incredibilmente bravo, Ha superato i limiti del clarinetto!! Eccezionale esecutore

[@klarinator]

me fui totalmente de espaldas al ver este video.... sin palabras. es increible ver que otro instrumento y mas de aliento iguale el virtuosismo e incluso supere lo que puede hacer el violin....

[@LugosiTibor]

I think this is the future, this clarinétozás been quoted in the following centuries. Amazing!

[@MrCatanni]

impresivno, pravi genij za klarinet glasbenik!

[@montymonty4101]

This is the reason that made me love the clarinet bravo u r the king

[@maxzenatti]

Semplicemente "GRANDIOSO"!!! Tecnicamente "mostruoso", Praticamente impossibili quei sovracuti, lo slap a quella velocità....

[@CalogeroLino]

the best clarinet player in the world , terrific !

[@wiwireppp]

WAUUUU!!! el instrumento y el son uno....lo domina y lo disfruta..espero porlomenos tocar asi algun dia.......

[@broknsaint]

That was truly awesome, the fact of making a woodwind sound like a string not loosing its own is amazing, the interpretation, plus the technique, ideas, the high notes, tonation.. One of the bests ive ever heard. Congrats, really. I actually enjoyed it more than the violin XD.

[@SokratisVotskos]

Absolute control of the instrument.Singing high,mezerizing low notes.Great circular,slapping,general broad feeling on what is music

[@AxleHpsnpr]

it amazes every time I am watching it ... excelent

[@jonas190]

I wonder what these people are thinking that thumbs down something so beautiful.

[@JeremiahBaker2]

He has amazing relaxation in his fingers.....

[@alexis27401]

Amazing, I am speechless

[@FeBlandMusic]

A wonderful celebration of music.

[@MICHELMUSIK123]

Impressionnant!! Quelle maîtrise!!

[@saxifonus]

Ok, now lets hear from the professional musician circuit. First, to the hate slingers who did not like his sound, uh, HELLO?!?! The Carmen Fantasy is meant to be played "Klezmer" style...look it up. 2nd his Range. The high note near the end of the first movement he plays is an "E" above Double "C", A full third above the range of the horn. His style is superior, the "showmanship" reflects a LOVE for playing, not arrogance. As a pro clarinet player for over 30 years, I salute him.

[@flarinootproductions]

my god. i'm not sure if i want to cry or if i'm about to poo myself out of clarinet-fear. then again... this song has immobilized me so that i am incapable of doing either. i think i'm going to trap myself in the practice rooms now and try to avoid bawling at my own clarinetty-self-suck.

[@bennygoodman100]

NO TENGO PALABRAS PARA DESCRIBIRLO

[@Dragonona1]

Simply unbelievable. Congratulation.

[@MicahiLove]

That super high concert E natural he plays is still INSANE. It sounds like a violin!!

[@Carusus1]

Literally incredible and impossible!

[@klarinetistaks]

this guy is absolutely amazing

[@electric5200]

Wow, if only i could play with such emotion

[@skim756]

crazy........and fantastic...

[@jasnajovanovic5940]

Lepota umetnosti~vrh!!!

[@pianoscantalk]

What incredible control of altissimo!

[@blkaznmartin]

Really? That's AWESOME! I managed to get that note out once or twice. Of course it sounded like someone was strangling me AND my clarinet =Þ.

[@petrapana]

coooool!!!!awsome!!!u make me belive that u joking with this:D again wonderfull!

[@MrPiccolomib]

Sembra un violino vero...talento straordinario, complimenti

[@TrabalRipoll]

spectacular! My 5 stars for him

[@CpureFEA]

[@ernestocabrera7938]

Demasiado 🥵🔥🔥🔥

[@Kazykin]

Bravo!!! Very very impressive :)

[@kengurovskokandro]

Bravo Mate, do sada nisam ;uo tako virtuoyan najvi[i registar klarineta! Na granici nestvarnog i nemogu'eg, komplimenti od Andra Aspalathosa.

[@Paluch7]

creazy GOOD!!!! EXCELLENT

[@CalogeroLino]

incredibile ......... favoloso ..........

[@web4pro]

Impressionnant !

[@thomaslauch43]

I cant imagine that there are people dislike this video

[@peterhorvath3864]

losers....sad clarinet teachers who could not play even a normal C major scale on the stage.

[@Lui191]

sempre fantastico

[@yunieskygonzalezperez3822]

Realmente increíble

[@josegonzalezgamez5093]

Perfect!

[@djonesey5]

Mr. Bekavac doesn't so much master clarinet technique as he does "invent" it. With the possible exception of Martin Frost I have never seen someone so masterful of the instrument with things like double tonguing, circular breathing, slap tonguing and stratospheric notes for which no conventional fingerings even exist.

[@MrGellert619]

Dave Jones you described his play so perfectly! He is truly one big name in the current clarinet culture.

[@JCB351]

I believe it is a Buffet Crampon Festival Clarinet... This clarinet has now been "replaced" by the Buffet Crampon Tosca, which should even been better.

[@mihaferk]

it is incredibly good! Bravo... Suggest you to play Chausson Poem on the clarinet. That would be real challenge :)

[@404jipjip]

this guy is Awesome! beast! :)

[@Shooshie128]

You want comments from the pro music circuit? My specialty is soprano sax. Close enough. See my comments in Part 2. This guy is great. Few clarinetists could do that. He loves music. Listen to his ensemble playing. Perfectly in tune, in time, blended; it's as if he plays duets with this orchestra daily and knows their tendencies by heart. That's the mark of a great musician, not just a great player. It's not my style preference, but I love that he does HIS style so fantastically! Shooshie

[@almudenaaa92]

impresionante!

[@lourdesbolanos5656]

Exelenteeeeeee¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[@grandeclar]

Geniale!!!!

[@lsdvine]

that is sweeter than any violin

[@susannestechow6578]

Interessant, dieses Stück mal mit einem anderen Instrument zu hören. Ich kannte bisher nur die Version für Geige. Weil ich Geigerin bin, ist das aber auch mal was anderes als immer nur das Instrument zu hören, das man selbst spielt. Das hat noch einen ganz anderen Lerneffekt als bei der Geigenfassung. Hier denkt man, wie werden bestimmte Stellen in dem Stueck und auch die ganze Musik für das andere Instrument adaptiert. Bei einem Geiger dagegen denkt man nur, wie setzt er oder sie die Musik technisch und musikalisch um, z. B. bezüglich Tempo, Agogik und so weiter. Da kann es ganz große und interessante Unterschiede zwischen den einzelnen Interpreten geben, wenn sie dasselbe Stück spielen.

[@prppavia8838]

what a grate sound this mr. Mate Bekavac!!!

[@clarmano]

Bravo!

[@giuseppeg78]

Non si tratta di giudicare il suono o la composizione che è originale per violino bensì giudicare una tecnica impressionante e di una facilità estrema sulle note acute.

[@biggeorgemulti]

MASTER!!!!!!!

[@msgjhg]

AHHHHHH
