Thanks Jack. A video that resonated with me in so many ways and I have recommended Laurie's podcast often to others. Commenting here for your algorithm 😊
Hi Jack, thank you so much for your content and efforts to make these videos. I am an adult un or re-learner after a 30 year gap. Enjoying many community bands, orchestra, jazz and now am also learning sax and guitar. I’m looking all over the internet for this Baermann 3 and getting terrible results. Will you please post a link to some source so that I may identify the correct book. I have a Baermann’s Op. 63 2nd division revised by Langenus. Is this the book series you are referring to? I see inside the cover a list of books named 1st, 2nd, 3rd and complete. (Can you believe ranging from $1.50 to $6.00 😂) Thanks in advance should you see this message and respond.
www.clarinetallmusic.com/products/baermann-clarinet-method-op-63-div-iii-daily-studies-carl-fischer This should be the same book as mine, although mine looks slightly different in type. It’s also on imslp: imslp.org/wiki/Vollständige_Clarinett_Schule,_Opp.63-64_(Baermann,_Carl) Which may or may not be public domain, depending on your country of residence. Many of my students have all their music on an ipad, but I find paper easier on the eyes. Have fun!
I'm going to work out my 1 Hr warmup. I do it on piano though. We all talk about Jackson too. He didn't practice that much; but, then he did practice. I got to get my warm ups. It drives me nuts. I hope I can do this.
That’s really interesting. Torture physically? Mentally? An hour doesn’t seem to be that long to practice in general, especially for a good player. I’m not saying anyone has to do anything in order to succeed, everyone is different. There’s hardly a clarinetist I know of my generation who hasn’t heard that recording and that story, so “an hour of Baermann, every day” came to be sort of a merit badge, a sign of commitment and serious intent, if only to oneself. It may be an arbitrary measure of fitness, like being able to run a 5k, but it’s part of the lore. I guess we’re lucky those kids didn’t practice Baermann two hours a day.

Thank you, I appreciate the support.
Marcellus taught at my school. Everyone talked about him.
Thanks Jack! very helpful. Greetings from Córdoba Argentina. Bob is my clarinet grandfather (I studied with Larry McDonald at Oberlin)
Thank you, and in return! As time goes on it is more and more up to us grandchildren to pass it on.

Thank you! You encourage me.

Muy gracias mi amigo
I can't even play that for an hour. I am good player too. This is such torture for me to play through that so long.
