I met him after (reluctantly) sneaking into our school's chorus room. My friends were going kookoo over this "hot British clarinet guy" (now 21, I might add.) At first I didn't want to go, but when I met him I was very impressed. We asked him to play the Family Guy theme song, the Mario Bros. theme, along with various other tunes. It was quite impressive (:
Forget practicing I'll never compare :( though he practes 3 HOURS A DAY how can he do that I can barely practice 20 minutes gahhhh I'm jealous... But I can't stop listening NOooo must....stop.....from....... breaking ......clarinet
He's to that reed on horn what Yehudi Menuhin was to that horse hair on catgut. ABOMINABLY PHENOMENAL!!! I don't know how the heck these prodigies pull it OFF like they do! Oh well, such is life with all it's rich pageantry of top talents. Glad I've seen this before comes my time to drop dead and get buried. Now I can swagger around and brag how I've heard what a mere 10-year-old clarinet vertuoso did to a bundle of notes like what Michelangelo did to a block of rock to liberate David INTACT!!!
I'm HIP!!! I was going to, but I looked at my Armstrong and went, "AH HAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. FORGET IT, NOW!!!" Then solemly decided to take a match to it to Bliss out on some woodwind-roasted chestnuts and marshmellows. I took the remaining scorched keys and fashioned them with cheap wire into a necklace I now wear and tell curious passerbys gawking at my neck, "It was a Big little Julian that inspired me into the art of odd-looking jewelry design. It's an off-beat story."
he is amazing. my music teacher met him and she said he was very nice and like helpful. becuz i play clarinet and he was like giving her tips and stuff.
Julian came and talked to my music class at my school. Not only was he an amazing player, he was actually a nice guy. You've got my full support. Also, if your reading this, the Youtube videos are not that bad!
you make all state clarinet players jelous! "but sometimes i only get in 2 hours a day." -goodness i wish ihad time for that!!!!!!! just squeezing in time to practice reigion music, solos and band music i hard enough!
Shippudensakura. Be honest with yourself. If you had this much talent, let alone ten times as much as he does (as you claim), then you'd be all over the media as well.
You're ten, not the age to boast egotistically on the internet. Why? You just sound ignorant. Read this after you've matured and you'll see what i mean. You can't honestly believe that you have a tone equivalent to his.
@randompurple35 When I said "as well as he can" I meant I can play the whole song too. I practice 2 hours a day, have an amazing teacher, and I live in a musical
family. I was exagerating when I said 10 times better. I am just saying I can play the song well. I am sorry about boasting, I was only exagerating. I could hit the high register the first day I got the clarinet. I am sorry, and I don't was to hear about this anymore.
It's great to be able to watch him at various ages and see his musical talent grow and his confidence mature. He's definitely "got music in his soul"!
hahaha i love how after he says "at least" THREE hours and then the host has no reaction to that and just moves on lol. i would've been like omg wtf? lol. amaznig!
Wow. Prodigies always amaze me, not only because of their talent, but because I always wonder how they discovered their talents. How did his parents know to get him to practice clarinet so much? I guess it's just the way life goes.
his first piece didnt wow me so much and it made me think that he was possibly overrated although he is only 10. but then i heard his solo de concours - a messager and WOW he has some crazy technique, and the sound quality came later. im almost 14 and learning the solo de concours is a big pain in the butt for me!!!
-.- I'm 17 and I could probably play that if i had the sheet in front of me and 2 months to practice but my sound would not compare. HATE HIM! he has discipline AND good sound quality...and on a PLASTIC clarinet too! WTF
@xHuntedGunzPCGx First of all that you need to proofread your messages and also see that I posted that message a year ago. Second, there was no argument. I was simply saying that he was extremely talented.
@CygnusRat You know if you actually are a clarinetist you'd know he's kinda a respectable famous one now. If you pursue music in college you'd be quickly put into place.
ok, I am a sophomore at my highschool and I'm the best clarinet there by far, and yet this kid makes me want to burn my clarinet. he's playing crap i would never even dream of playing right now. OMFG!!! WHAT THE CRAP!!!
oh my god.... o.o he sounds better than my section leader o.o this is not okay...
