    As a high school player who doodles around with half of these tunes, glad to know that it's at least not a terrible use of practice time!

    As a high school senior clarinetist, this video made my day! The Blue Shades, Chorale and Shaker Dance, and Molly on the Shore for Soprano clarinet excerpts are my favorites.

    The Hindemith was a surprise entry. Hard to believe they didnt put the solo E flat clarinet from Belioz Dream of a Witches Sabbath as well

      I think this is more band music excerpts than orchestra but I love the symphonie fantastique excerpt

    • @ArmyFieldBand
      @ArmyFieldBand  7 місяців тому +2

      Correct-we’re highlighting typical professional military band audition repertoire. There’s some crossover but not everything comes from orchestral works.

    0:18 were playing Molly on the shore for one of our symphonic pieces in my band this year. More specifically for me, 6:41 I'm a bass clarinet!!!

    I remember when I was a junior in high school, my class got a piece called “Variations on a Korean Folk Song” by John Barnes Chance. There were a lot of sixteenth notes, and I, a 2nd clarinet player, complained “Look at all this black ink…” Now I know it’s practically a requirement to have a lot of black ink in a clarinet excerpt. 😂

    I will definitely see bass clarinet differently ! Quick question if anyone can answer me : are the variations on a shaker melody inspired from "simple gifts" ? It sounds like the same to me

    • @ArmyFieldBand
      @ArmyFieldBand  2 роки тому +6

      Yes that's correct! Simple Gifts is the Shaker melody that the variations are based on.

    • @vasukushalnagar4087
      @vasukushalnagar4087 Рік тому

      The wild thing is if you slow it way down, it's still not in perfect time. Really goes to show just how much these excerpts can theoretically be perfected.

      He got the ability to play from years of work and practice. As a Clarinet player myself, God didn’t give me any talent. My own practice brought me there. I started from nothing and practice brought me to something.
