@pupsicneaga if you knew anything about Weber, you would know that he was not always very specific, and allowed the soloist (Baermann) to take many liberties in terms of tempo, articulation, and ornaments. I think this clarinetist has done a wonderful job and made very smart musical decisions.
This was incredible! I'm actually going to play this song for my all county auditions in a few months. It's my favorite song. =] awesome job. I hope I can get as good as him eventually!
Great performance. Great sound and stage presence. He seems young, but has great commend of the instrument. Let's not forget the accompanist. She seems to be a terrific pianist as well.
i'm played this piece for my all-state auditions this past saturday... i got first... this performance totally blew me away! i love how happy the pianist looks when she's done... she knows it was a good run for the both of them. :)
wow nice you took it like 10 clicks faster than me and didnt crash and burn im impressed. lol I didnt do it memorized thought still got superior at state. Again that was amazing!
This is very nice but just my thought I would do the Rondo with more French like accents and make it a little bit lighter. I don't know but I always think a little bit about the 3rd movement of the Poulenc sonata when I hear this.
FANTASTIC!!!! I play clarinet, it's my favorite instrument. I would die to play like that!!! Absolutely amazing.

Weber - Fantasia and Rondo
Nice job.

would you happen to know the note range in this song?
broadwayfanaticcjb 2 years ago 2
I don't know about Fantasia, but the Rondo goes from the lowest G on the clarinet
( one octave below second line G) all the way up to High A (One octave above the T R 1 2 fingering). It has a pretty high range.
RanDoMkId73 2 years ago
Fantasia goes down to low E like, the lowest note possible on Clarinet

This was not just any "student" at Music Academy, but this was Jon Troy, a truly outstanding player.
