Saint Saens clarinet sonata

[@ellaroman1592]

This is the best version of this sonata on KZbin. Great job!! loved it with all my heart, so emotional and powerful, exactly when needed.

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Thank you so much!!!

[@leungyatchun9552]

The sound of the clarinet is wonderful

[@MaxwellKaye]

I'm learning the first movement of this for a chamber music seminar in August. The middle section is very challenging, and you nailed it! Great job!

[@lsmart]

Loved the performance, esp. the tempos. In the various recordings on KZbin, there are drastically different tempos in a number of places. You seem to pick the perfect one for each section of the piece. There are also beautiful nuances and diminuendos that others overlook. First rate.

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Leo Smart thank you so much!

[@classicalmusic1175]

Wonderful performance. Thanks!

[@classicmusic6944]

This performance was most moving my heart in all music of youtube.

素晴らしい表現力によって、哀愁感が伝わってきます。

[@georgiebetancourt2594]

you inspire me to become a better clarinetist. I play one in highschool as a freshman, but hering you play this makes me want to make music my career

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Wow! Thanks a lot!

[@gameaddiction7731]

I love the appearance of the clarinet you are using, it sounds amazing as well.

[@michaelmcgavin3715]

My favorite I ever played! Brings back fond memories

[@PietroTagliaferri]

:-)

[@michaelmcgavin3715]

Going to find my sheet music and play again. I need to fix the octave key on clarinet. Figures it has to be an essential key

[@devivaneyken7525]

Loved your performance!!!

[@classicmusic6944]

I found the incredible power of this music.

[@thierrywarot5792]

congratulations ,absolutely wonderful! thank you very much.

This is the audition piece for a high school honors band I'm going to try out for (Currently a freshman) and It's been stuck in my head for the past 5 months. I have to be able to play movements I, II, and IV except the part in IV where it goes up to a super high A (around 14:56). Thank you for this awesome performance; I've listened to it many times and it's helped me understand how quite a few parts of the song are supposed to play out.

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Bradyfish good luck!

[@justinphillips6930]

you live in california i bet lol because i have the same piece

[@bradyfishnichols]

Justin Phillips Nope, I'm on the East Coast.

[@justinphillips6930]

Bradyfish same piece and movements on the west coast for honor band lol

[@bradyfishnichols]

A little update, sadly I didn't get in. I didn't really expect to, to be honest, as I'm a freshman trying out against 60 other sophomores/juniors/seniors for ~30 spots. I screwed up in the scale-ish parts near the beginning of movement II. Anyway, thanks for uploading this, and have a nice night.

[@ab6ow]

Thanks for your fine performance...

[@madacla2268]

I've made a playlist of you 2 years ago, and listening your music day by day. I'm a big fan of you. I'm a amateur clarinet player, and making MV.

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Thank you so much!

[@mariaangelagomez4818]

Excelente interpretación. Felicitaciones

[@antealunanera]

Bravissimo!!! Bellissima interpretazione, bellissimo suono... e con un clarinetto italiano!

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Grazie mille!

[@addisonwillis46]

I _just_ played the second movement for a contest and got Best of Day!!! I’m an 8th grader... it was tough, but I guess I played it well enough that it was the judge’s favorite! PS... I LOVE his clarinet

[@ellaroman1592]

one year late, but well done!!!

[@jorgechtler778]

Tolles Stück - wonderful piece of music!!

[@yurigeifman8537]

Bravo, Super, respect.

[@howardschwartz9489]

Excellent performance and recording! Just like with some of your other pieces, such as Finzi's Bagatelles, you inspire me to practice my clarinet. Your virtuosity gives me a target to aim for...maybe impossible, but at least fun trying. Thanks.

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Howard Schwartz you are very kind! Thanks a lot

Me encanta su sonido y manera de interpretación, es muy bueno en verdad. Saludos desde Mexico. :)

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Grazie!

[@fernandoavila5079]

es maravilloso ese sonido, perfecto para esa obra pero, no te parece que en ningún momento deja de sacar aire por los laterales. eso no me gusta, me distrae mucho :"(

[@jorgechtler778]

...and great performance :-))

[@ha092-z6r]

너무나 아름답고 우아한 선율입니다😢

[@alastairboles4437]

Really wonderfully played, very beautiful setting. As a clarinettist myself, I'd like to know more about the clarinet itself

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Thanks so much. The Clarinet is made by the italian factory Patricola. It is wonderfull. Check the website www.patricola.it

[@alastairboles4437]

I'm also a pianist and an accordionist! So was thinking of visiting Italy soon. But I'm a great thinker... (( I play a Buffet C12. Was playing it today. I promise to look at the website.

[@alastairboles4437]

Wow, I've played this work a few times myself, since

[@danielbardelli9621]

You sound really good :0

[@mus-luv]

素敵🥰🥰

[@mariapiamancino980]

Che spettacolo!❤️🌈

[@eufoniaedizioni]

Fantastico!!

[@paoligero]

Stupendo!!

[@ulfutstrand]

...this is also good for my pulse....

[@naomikirkwood6281]

Beautiful tone! Maybe the last note of phrases could be sustained though. Lovely Clarinet and clarity!

[@ccanaves]

Is that a Patricola? Are you still using it? How is it compared to other "more famous" brands (if you know which ones I mean...)?

[@PietroTagliaferri]

Yes, it is! It is better in intonation and sound. It is very professional.

[@Nasamukamuk]

It's just... prefect🤌🏻

[@mathersdavid5113]

Beautiful performance. How about that strange slow movement. Sounds like it came from another piece, or even another composer.

[@АлександрЧесноков-л6ч]

Sarebbe bello lavorare sul suono in posti tecnicamente più complessi. Lì si perde una piccola colorazione nobile. In tutti gli altri aspetti, il livello è molto buono. Bello da ascoltare.
