clarinet tutorial~how to play the 5 major notes

[vacuumlover1]

Im sorry but how can you instruct people to play the clarinet when you are playing on a Vito Reso-tone? You also need a new mouth piece.

[THEamazingatrix]

I just thought he was good. Thats all.

[mary39607]

okay not to be rude or anything.... but if we wanted to know the notes, it would probably be easier just to find a fingering chart online don't you think....and dont you also think when buying a clarinet one also thinks about finding a teacher to teach the clarinet.....you can talk about your tips and whatever but people aren't gonna be looking for certain tips on of all places youtube... admit it, you did this for your own selfish show it off reasons and i dont blame you your just a kid..

[teampenit]

Thank you! VERY helpful, easy to understand, I am taking the clarinet up after a long break and this is just what I need.

[psaraiza]

I goggled how to play a clarinet, and yours was the best, thanks. I played clarinet in band 30 years ago, I did not need the how to put the clarinet tighter video or how to hold it, etc. Just a few reminder notes, tunes, and off again. Thanks. PS, do some more.

[gunz0107]

i hope u can uploads more videos in all scale pls i need tht lesson thanks :)

[loundouguy]

[Maxilos99]

This was really helpful! I'm playing alto sax but I'm also learning clarinet and now I know the scale! Thanks!

[nataliecotner]

Thank u

[Juliw2428]

U rock! Do more videos plz!

[Spin3k]

wow that was legit helpful omg i dont suck playing clairanet anymore yeyeyyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeyey­eyey

[peppdawg33]

Thanks so much! Don't listen to all the rude people on here. I play saxophone and I'm trying to learn clarinet and I didn't know where to even start. Thanks again!! Very helpful!

[LHStrumpeteer]

shouldn't you be older and have more experience before you start giving lessons?

[fiend7777]

Kid, I appreciate you trying to spread knowledge of clarinet around...but replying to these people's taunts and making stuff up really makes you look the fool here. You're not bad, but to say you were featured in the 2009 Youtube Symphony is really a desperate lie, when anyone can easily Google the members. So please, practice hard, and maybe you will get in.

[bivacouk]

Thanks

This helps a real beginner, like myself.

[lukeandrobby1]

Had a question: I am new to the clarinet, and I was trying to play and it was playing. I played harder and it played but then stopped after a while. Is it normal that you have to blow hard? Is it normal for the note not to be held long?

[jthom2001]

great job kid!!



[boo66]

'Major' is not a good word to use here, as major has a musical meaning (as in major scale, major chord etc) which this is nothing to do with.

'Some easy notes to play' would be a better descrioption.

[mdnclarinet]

great vid

[JazzYugioh1022]

hey I play sax and flute, mainly jazz. and i picked up my friends clarinet and tried to play. i already knew the fingerings are all different (12th key XP), but the embroucher is completely different too. could you please offer some advice for getting a good full sound for a nativ sax player? now i know why people call calrinets misery sticks

[rubymiller77]

hi thanks for the video i have just got my first clarinet and other than books didnt know where to start thanks for the nice video showing the notes.

[melygal]

hold ur breath

2go to another video

[ISLAVEFORHARUHI]

I liked! <3 Ill buy this instrument xP

[terranceb89]

wow unclassy musicians such a disgrace to all clarinet players

[stormus3105]

Btw that a lie about Scholarships, you have to 16 and you so bad you stink worse than a barnyard. please get off you tube

[stormus3105]

whats really funny is that all of you probably, try o I don't know trying out for all state or any kind of competitions and see how you fair, can you say 1st chair allsate?

[1993allende]

Jeez chill out lads give the boy a break. He obviously needs a big one so he can practise the clarinet a bit more.

[clarinetlessons101]

@1993allende I cant tell, was that supposed to be an insult to me?

[1993allende]

@clarinetlessons101 well... you shouldnt really be teaching when you play like this. Your embrouchure isnt brilliant, you need to support the sound from the diaphragm. Could have got this information on te video from a fingering chart. Seriouly, you shouldnt be teaching when you are at this level, you could cause all sorts of irreversable problems for your students.

[sloshize]

i already kno the notes by heart!!

[johnnyboygeek]

Sorry i didnt mean to but i already got a scholar ship im 13! And guess what to Nebraska and TCU and i football i play clarinet and i got it even better i can play sax, clarinet, and flute

[clarinetlessons101]

@johnnyboygeek i seriously doubt that, legally you have to be 16 to even be offered a scholarship.... and actually i have been playing flute for 3 years clarinet for 5 soprano and alto sax for 2 and bari sax for 3 also i have been playing violin for 3 years and was featured in the 2009 youtube symphony orchestra... im sorry but i dont want to waste my time with you anymore but would greatly appreciate if you wouldnt waste my time or you own for that matter, have a nice day.

[yasmin4494]

@johnnyboygeek if you ae so good then way are you watching this video explaning the basics?

[johnnyboygeek]

Wow you freak i didnt even get my nickname from that and im not gay you bastard! SO SUCK THAT AND FUCK YOU!! you suck at Clarinet and you know it

[clarinetlessons101]

@johnnyboygeek and that offends me how? plus look at this, you are starting a fight with a 16 year old who has 5 times the amount of talent (other than Clarinet) in his thumb than you do in your entire body, twice! just to prove it, i started working for Google when i was 14 and later was offered a scholarship into the University of Alabama, Georgia Tech, and Georgia State

[johnnyboygeek]

you look so gay when you play

[clarinetlessons101]

@johnnyboygeek and your point is... well im not. anyway, you might want to look at your screen name, because there is a gay transvestite named johnnyboyxoxo on youtube too! you remind me of him...

[nibaviz]

i dunno how long have you made this vid but i just wanna thank you for your vid because of your vid i have learn the basics

just a word of encouragement don't care what ppl say about you...

You did a good job ^^

keep in up and thx for the vid

[abdulsalamnaushad]

Hi, This is Lovely Playing, Also Watch Ustad Abdul salam Naushad, he is an Indian Classical Clarinet Player. He is Amazing too.

[toontown1111]

you need to role your lip over your teeth!

[clarinetlessons101]

@toontown1111 i do!!! if i didnt in the vid it was by accident!!!

[guitarcrazygirl10]

Why is everyone posting hate comments and overreacting? And for some reason I can't hear anything, except for when I turn my volume up to the max I can barely hear you talking...

[maite1evil]

@clarinetlessons101 haha good one

[SayAnything151]

@clarinetlessons101 well someone is pissed off. Don't post videos on youtube when your not good at something because people well say things and no, those aren't the 5 main notes. Maybe if your playing second than yes. Good for you for improving. I'm commenting on THIS video though. Take it off if you've improved.

[SayAnything151]

that was bad. theres no such thing as the five major note. dumbshit.

and your tone is very bad you shouldnt be teaching.

[stormus3105]

You suck, don't try to give lesson, the clarinet doesn't matter, if your good, then your good, your just bad

[UhmKyra]

Well E is the hardest for me let meh tell yah i just started band it is sucky

[DOUBLEBFACTORY]

actually im playing the saxophone i cjanged my mind

[thegreatsolar]

Why do you show an F when the note is G? Your tone is bad, and your rhythm is bad. You should not be teaching music until you have the bare fundamentals down. There are not 5 major notes, the word major implies something else in music, and all notes should be considered equally important.

[PianoProdigy112]

@thegreatsolar You stole the words from my mouth!! :)

[foxtrotgin]

@thegreatsolar... Well! you and PianoProdigy112 sound like a couple of music snobs.

[thegreatsolar]

@foxtrotgin Well, what's snobby about it? People shouldn't be making videos teaching people if they need beginners lessons themselves!

[Andidiva4]

get your clarinet tuned

[somecanuckinoz]

Thanks, despite stupid comments from others, this was very helpful to us. My daughter is starting to learn, was told vaguely to do a G and hold it for 4 seconds, and the teacher wasn't very clear as to how to do a G. So:

THANK YOU!

[DOUBLEBFACTORY]

im gonna play the clarinet in 6th grade band and im exited

[Myrandomthoughts15]

@DOUBLEBFACTORY So your going into 6th grade? Well beggining band is fun and concerts are to but you have to be really careful with your instrument and clean in and get new reeds...theres a lot to it but i play clarinet and i love it!! I even got 1st chair!

[Bluemonkeycheesecake]

I Already Play Da Clarient, Nd Dome Of There Teachers Make It Sound So Hard. It Is Pretty Simple

[dealer205]

How can u b a clarinet instructor at 9 years old?!

[clarinetlessons101]

well that was a bad clarinet, i have a new buffet clarinet now and it sounds AWESOME!!!

[CrazyChicken1990]

You´re G is too high

[krimskrams]

i've been wondering about that too, open G is more like F

[Buttman46]

Thanks! Just picked up my sisters clarinet out of the closet with no clue. Now Im making some sense of this thing.... thanks-

[SaveLifePhotography]

[6143238403]

okay... you are over-curling your bottom lip... and you shouldn't be curling your top lip. use a little more air and don't put as much ofthe mouth-peice in your mouth and your good to go.

[unknownfatty]
