Denise plays Petite Fleur on clarinet - new version 2010

[ruevo1]

Diese Zwischenvariation habe ich noch nicht gehört. Gefällt mir! Daumen hoch!!

[drazzouk]

Thank you very much for your comment and advice, I´ll follow it for sure. Yes, vibrato is great, I´ll try to practice more. I like too much Edmond Hall and of course B.Goodman. You play great, Brian. Hope one day I´ll play well. Cheers)

Hi Denise, I have noted your progress - you're doing great! One thing I might suggest is developing a little vibrato? Of course you may not want to, but if one wants

to play any swing or jazz it does help to make the sound mor relaxed and listenable

to. I have played clarinet/saxes for 50 years (I'm 74 years young!), but after about 5 years I realized I hardly had a vibrato. My favorite player is Johnny Dodds, by the way.

I believe you already have a vid of me playing 'Ape Man'

My clarinet is a Yamaha YCL35, mouthpiece grabner (for jazz) and reed vandoren2.0.

@drazzouk

your playing is really good....can i get the notes,please?

[gyocomgd]

Denise, what is the make and model of your horn? The mid-range tones are very pleasing.

[gyocomgd]

Your practice is really paying off. The improvement in tone and dexterity is quite noticeable.

[drazzouk]

@gyocomgd Thank you!

Estimada Denise, Felicitaciones!!, se ha notado el progreso en ti. Yo toco Saxo Alto, hace años, pero el clarinete me fascina, tuve un Kent frances hace unos años, y toque por oido, hasta que un día me lo robaron, pues hoy gracias a Dios hace unos meses adquiri un Selmer USA CL300 de estudio, y comence denuevo a practicar, buscando material para clarinete me encontre con tus videos, lei tu perfil, muchas gracias por tus aportes a la música. Bendiciones para ti desde Chile Sudamerica.

Hello Denice.

I know a young lady in Sao Paulo. Her name is Solange Batista de Orange.

She is 15 years young and she plays double-bass and clarinet in the New Orleans styl. She is so sweet and member of The New Orleans Jass Band from Sao Paulo. You know this band?

Please send me an e-mail.

Kindly regards,

Paul Zelders

[drazzouk]

Yes, Paul, indeed. I know your band, it´s very good!!!

[zelde025]

Denice it's great to learn playing jazz also on this way.

I have done it on the same way on trombone, tuba and sousaphone.

After this period I have my own Circus Square Jazz Band.

Have a look on: zelde025

[drazzouk]

@ditieri Thank you! I´m sure that you will play very well, but it is important not giving up! The beginning is quite hard, but litle by litle you ´ll overcome your difficulties and improve your skills. Good luck!!

[jttrumpet55]

Beautiful rendition. thanks for sharing. JT....

[drazzouk]

@jttrumpet55 Thank you!!

[CarlosAlk]

In this new attempt, I noticed you made an upgrade. Not only more secure, but also dealing with the essentials of jazz: improvisation

User Mr. Gleg made a very pertinent observation. I heard something different first time I watched your video. Now, seeing this comments, I checked that nice variation starting at 1:59.

Once again, bravissimo!!!

[drazzouk]

@CarlosAlk Thank you Carlos! All the best!

[emileroka]

Bravo ! bravissimo !

[drazzouk]

@emileroka

Thank you!

[MrGleg]

Congratulations, it's beautiful! At 1:59 you make a nice variation of the theme, is this an improvisation or partition? if the partition or can I get the score? Thank you

[drazzouk]

@MrGleg

Thanks! Send me your email and I send you the partition!

[TrabalRipoll]

Very beautiful, Denise. You play with your soul.

[drazzouk]

@TrabalRipoll Thank you for your kindness, Juan!
