I've got some auditions coming up and I decided it was time to dust off the old Mendelssohn Scherzo from a Midsummer Night's Dream. Historically this has always been one of my weakest orchestral excerpts, though I have striven to change that in recent years! As much as this excerpt challenges me, I'm still thankful that the clarinets don't have to play the flute part!

Cool to see how you approach these kinds of excerpts and cannot get over the beautiful woody sound you have on that tosca 👌👍
Thank you for the kind words and for watching!!
Awesome vlog! Really enjoying all of these and putting them to good use during my practice routine, keep up the good work
Thank you for watching and the kind words!
I practice paganini capriccio numero 5 every morning, that takes care of this piece as well.
Dude! Great channel! Good playing as well.
Fantástico, gracias por compartir
Thank you for watching!!
I should swab more 😅.
Question. I'm getting much better at getting passages and phrases under my fingers but memorization is so much slower when I'm reading sheet vs trying to recall it, but the recall slows progress a bit.
In pieces like this do you just let the memorization come in time or do you also spend time trying to recall it? Or at this point does memorization come easily?
Thanks for watching Russell! For this one the memorization came over time, but over the pandemic I’ve been working hard on actively memorizing pieces even in the early stages of playing them. It was difficult at first, but after making a conscious effort to work on it everyday after a while the process started to become a little more second nature! It will get easier!
👌
🙌
I'd love to see a detailed explanation of how you use practice rhythms. I have Russianoff's sequences for duple and triple meter passages but without dissecting what's here it seems to be a bit different?
Sure, in my next video I’ll do a break down of all (or at least most of) the practice rhythms I use for quickly learning technique!
@@ParkHouseCreations I will look forward to that! Thank you!
Can you share the practice rhythms you are using for this ?
Hallo Eric i am waiting for your Licostini mouthpieces review…..
How do They work?
They play great! I got super behind because of the recent holiday week in America, but it will be coming in the next few weeks!
@@ParkHouseCreations i just phone to Alessandro about any corrections….
@@clarimau Ah great! I hope they are working well for you!
What barrel is that?
It’s a custom barrel made for me by a friend, I am afraid he doesn’t sell them!
Pretty. But eww the clarinet. Such a hard instrument. Congratulations.
Haha thanks!
@@ParkHouseCreations where did you do your undergraduate. I feel that you videos were a bit targeted towards me. Was in the semi-finals for BSO pre-pandemic - clarinetist turned flutist. Baltimore is so historically rich. Would love to chat it up. The negativity online is atrocious.
Your sound is beautiful. We have such similarities.
