In Leo Ps words “ Sometimes I forget I play clarinet. It’s the first instrument I ever played. Thanks to my parents and other important people in Pittsburgh, I was fully supported in my musical endeavors as a child. I remember that first reddish brownish clarinet my mom gave me and how happy I felt when I played. Those years of my life will always be a huge part of me ❤️”

[@spleensthecat1704]

I had no idea, cool 😃

[@bluejay9638]

In like literally almost in the same situation he is. I switched to bari sax after 4 years of flute experience, and bari sax became such a prominent part of me cause I liked it more I literally forgot how to play the flute correctly. Everything was squeaky and sometimes I played the wrong notes, like for a long time I was switching my c to the middle finger on the flute on accident 💀 it was a tragic time. Thankfully now I've gotten used to the difference, but I mostly play bari sax still

[@jordanblakely5537]

[@user-np5ve5fb6w]

@@avah9721 is clarinet hard

[@avah9721]

f until you get the hang of it, but there are a lot of things you could do to make it better faster. Going over the break is difficult, but if you’re a sax player, high note fingerings are comparable, but low notes are weird for saxophonists. Your embochure will need to be a lot tighter than sax, but I’m sure you’ll be just fine.

[@txsphere]

Sounds like he must have started his career as a clarinet player. That tone is amazing.

[@mynameisambertoo7379]

His playing isn't actually any better than his saxophone playing, and I'd argue it's worse. He was very sloppy and seemed to have a basic level of skill with the lower register, and his bending wasn't present at all despite the transcription calling for it (this may be the transcription's fault). Now I wouldn't say it's bad in the slightest, his range is quite incredible and he seems more comfortable in a higher register (maybe not those top notes hehe). I just wouldn't make the claim that he started off with the instrument, lest he made a switch to one he was more comfortable with.

[@kylesheng2365]

@@mynameisambertoo7379 he started clarinet in a orchestra lol at around 2009, pittsburg youth orchestra i believe

[@zeycrone4120]

My Name Is Amber Too dawg lmao he sounds extremely good at it and unless u play at a top orchestra I am going to believe what I think which is that he is extremely good at clarinet as well. Also the bends were present maybe u need to turn ur volume up.

[@MissTEO1]

My Name Is Amber Too I actually quite like his plating. No, it’s not classical. Maybe that’s what you’re listening for? They are distinctly different in rhythm, articulation style, and of course phrasing. As a classical clarinetist and teacher, I would love to be able to play the jazz style effortlessly like he does here. It looks easy, but it’s actually very difficult, especially for those with a classical foundation.

[@craterellus3577]

@@MissTEO1 I play clarinet 1 in my high school band, and I recently joined the after school jazz combo. I have to agree with you, classical to jazz is such a tough transition, especially when you already have such a strong foundation in a classical. I ended up switching to tenor sax for jazz, and my tone has somehow naturally developed into a classical sax tone despite having never played anything close to classical music on tenor. It's funny, I thought changing to an instrument that I have never played on before would at least help getting a jazz tone, but I know that articulation and improv are going to come with plenty of time and practice.

The first 3 notes sounded like "tequila"

[@jaredbaum]

I heard it as well and looked it up to verify. Tequila is in the exact same key and you are totally correct about those notes. You may have a minor form of perfect pitch! If it's not perfect recall perfect, you can certainly quickly associate a memory based on perfect pitch sound alone
