Jazz clarinet techniques Pitch bend slides glissandi and vibrato

[@mouk0u]

So, every musicians room is like that. Relieved! ^_^

[@Gummybearzrawr]

Thanks! I'm trying to prove to my school that clarinets are a jazz instrument. :3

[@jazmynebreece5638]

me 2

[@benjaminrodgers7440]

Jazmyne Breece If you guys need proof just mention Benny Goodman (look him up if you don't know) if they still don't believe you then just accept the fact they're all ignorant imbeciles.

[@fiddler1861]

+Gummybearzrawr I heard Pete Fountain play before I ever heard someone play classical clarinet. In middle school, I collected his albums, and think of clarinet as mainly a jazz instrument. I don't know if i could play my LeBlanc Classic with an O'Brien crystal mouthpiece in an orchestra without swinging it a little.

[@salpicatulocura]

Clarinet is a very versatile instrument, it uses in folk music(tango, banda sinaloense, blues), jazz, clasical, even myself i use it in Reggae music, boleros, cumbia, salsa, and a lot more, remember is the saxophone's father.

[@OnceOnce_Official_]

I proved 100 percent to my school clarinet is a jazz instrument. I practiced and made it into the advanced jazz band. I recommend beechler clarinet mouthpieces as a good sound.

[@carlwilson4375]

Thank you. This has been a great lesson. You are an amazing teacher.

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Don't lose heart, it took me several years to perfect the techiques, keep at it!

[@mrjimmienoone2130]

Absolutely great lesson!!

[@jessiemeeks7035]

wow you're really amazing, this is very helpful! I'm a sax/flute/clarinet and this reminded md of Artie Shaw it was lovely thank you

[@fernie51296]

This is great!!

[@Josepanimator]

Very good...realy thanks for for your videos :-) :-) :-) grettings from Costa Rica

[@pae913]

I've been able to do glissando's for a long time now, and eventually (as in a few weeks ago) I found out how to make my clarinet sound like a siren by doing it both up and down

Great video!

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

It's a Backun Fatboy barrel made of grenadilla wood and it's marvellous!

[@juanamour]

What type of mouthpiece do you use if you can please tell me

[@WisataYuk]

thanks for your video!

[@leo.yi.martinez]

what number reed your useing

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

At the time, probably a 4, but it all depends on your set up and mouthpiece. I now use Vandoren V12 3s as I don't play that much now

[@leo.yi.martinez]

+Kathy Williams-Devries ok thank you your essentials are great

[@FridaVDelaSota]

what kind of barrel do you use?? grettings from ensenada baja california mexico

[@OnceOnce_Official_]

Juan Morales. Beechler white/black diomond

[@jessiemeeks7035]

Beginning of Gerswin's Rhapsody in Blue

[@jessiemeeks7035]

Thank you so much!

[@jessiemeeks7035]

I'm gonna try to learn it (:

[@magdalenak2444]

@@jessiemeeks7035 hahah, did you learn it? I'm learning it now and the glissando is taking so much of my timee, haha

[@Usefulmusic]

いいですねえ、ドラムは打ち込みですか？

[@rubytang8798]

Hi, for clarinet, can pitch bend can be played within just a semitone? e.g. D to D#. thanks a lot!

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Ruby Tang pitch bends can be as wide as your embouchure and set up allows

[@rubytang8798]

Kathy Williams-Devries for the break b4 to b flat4, isnt really very difficult for fast passage , even for performer level?

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Depends on how much you practice it 😀

[@uspallata738]

iS IT THE SAME PITCH BEND YOU CAN USE IN kLEZMER??

[@Fruitcupstudios49]

hi kathy, this is a very good instructional video. But in order to achieve a good glissando, it should have nothing to do with the way you lift your finger off of the keys. Also, is that a guy chadash clarinet?

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Selmer C95 130. Well over a decade old now

[@hanjeongyeop]

so nice, so easy, so helpful every instructor should be liker her

[@rayadez]

una recogidita mi chava ! tocas bien chingon !

[@RonZanderful]

I want to play like that!!!!!!

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Whatever gives you a good sound. The shape of everyone's mouth is different, I suggest trying a number of mouthpieces with different reeds and see how you go.

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

No it is a Buffet RC Prestige with a Backun Fatboy barrel

[@nedyalkopetkov]

whats wrong with your office? Why it's a mess?

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Of course!

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

Yeah, but without the help of an xray machine I really can't show that, can I

[@JuanCruz-nn6ke]

this is a pain I CANT GET IT >_<

[@eliascardoso2633]

Kkkkkkkkk

[@MicahiLove]

LOL, she went off about that flute player haha

[@Avorzaa]

Que bagunça é essa? Kkkkkkk

[@marvelboy74]

Some god damn flute player. LOL!

[@chelsaaddy8893]

why so junky in the back geez clean up at least a little

[@hirobow33777]

すごいです！しかし部屋がやけに散らかってるね。

[@barthsimonnot]

quel bordel le bureau !!

[@KathyWilliamsDevries]

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Only of music...

[@JohnSmith-iu3jg]

Your smear is not smooth. Probably because u aren't bending your pitch enough. Your finger technique is also a bit lacking. I can smear from clarion Db to an altissimo G without ANY break in the sound whatsoever.

[@nicholasc.1024]

Congratulations. This isn't a competition video. This is a tutorial. I don't think you could see the title with your ego in the way, but it doesn't say she's the best player in the world.

[@jamest9246]

Off-brand TK Honestly. Besides, why walk into a tutorial video if you’re so amazing yourself? To see if it lines up with your excellence? And besides, this was 6 or so years ago. She’s changed and maybe even moved on, why give critiques.

[@unruhLEE1]

Very helpful. Thanks!
