You're so inspiring! When I don't feel like practicing I watch you, and then I can't wait to play! keep it up!!

[virtuosoclarinet]

Thanks for your beautiful comment my friend. Hope you enjoy it. Loves from Istanbul..

[skezzad]

pretty good :) im playing this piece at the moment for grade 7 and its a really great piece to play. you sound great. i also noticed you have a pretty dam good pianist. the piano part for this piece is insanely difficult.

you got the timing right for the part where it changes to triplets. very nice :)

[virtuosoclarinet]

Thanks for your beautiful comment =) Hope you enjoyed it =)

YEEEESSSSS!!!!!

How wonderful to watch this performance! It sounds so joyful.

Right now I am working on the Poulenc Sonata and having a wonderful time with it! (That piece plus the Mozart Concerto and Rose etudes are for college auditions, of which I am in the middle.)

Do you get nervous before performing?

[virtuosoclarinet]

Thank you so much for your comment..

I think, everybody need to be a nervous before the concert. But not so much. It's just for to be focus with sweet feelings not about stress to concert. Usually I feel nervous but when I start to play on stage I just focus on music.. I don't think stress..

Poulenc Sonata is great. 2nd mov. is really amazing. Lots of Love from Snowy Istanbul. =))

i think a little bit of stress actually helps you during the performance. i've got a couple of collegues who take beta-blockers. especially for audtions. i think that's the wrong solution - it's better to learn to live with a little bit of nervousity

i love your way of playing and your pianist also, its so nice what you are saying about the waterfall, its exactly this. i´m gonna play the sonata on a recital on thursday- the pianopart... its very dificult to play, brahms like a pianist knew how to compose for the piano. and to play it like a never ending waterfall. but i love his music! all the best for you, hugs.

[virtuosoclarinet]

thanks you so much my dear =)) brahms my favorite composer ever..

Hugsss xxxx

It was excellent except in a few parts where the sound sort of crushed. however, I beleive that such mistakes are trivial. Nice performance!

[virtuosoclarinet]

thanks my friend. it could be more clear but i've had some problems about my reed at resital.. but i agree with you. that mistakes are trivial..

thanks again. and lots of love from istanbul..

[fendsay]

everytime i see any of your videos, im amazed not only by your technical abilities, but by your connection and musicianship with each work. truly magnificent. i think you may be the next sabine.

[virtuosoclarinet]

thank you so much my dear friend. firstly thanks for your friendship and comment. i'm suprised when i saw your comment. because you wrote "sabine" :)))

i played her one time. she liked me.. but i have a lots of time for practise and work to be like her.. :)

Thanks for your wishes about me and my playing..

Hope to see you somewhere.

[clarinet0087]

Your performance is wonderful indeed.

Brahms is very difficult in the aspect of music.

I like Copland concerto played by Sabine Meyer best!!

What is your favorite piece of music?

I'd like to talk further with you. :)

We're in the same age and I think we'll be good friends.. ;)

Have a great day and thanks for nice playing :)))

[virtuosoclarinet]

Thanks for your friendly comment my friend. My favorite piece is absolutely Aaron Copland Concerto.. ;) But I love Nielsen also..

Have a geat day too. And thanks for your friendship again...

Talk to soon again..

[virtuosoclarinet]

Is this not in order? I can't understand German. Can you explain English please? If it's possible.

Thanks to you.

All the Best!

I personally have the most fun with this movement! :-) It really sounds so joyful. I haven't had the pleasure of playing the sonata with piano yet- I still have a long way to go and it's hard to find a piano player willing to take this piece on- not only is the piano part really hard but it really requires some work to put clarinet and piano together! Your ensemble sounds wonderful!

[virtuosoclarinet]

:-) Thanks my friend. And I have so enjoyed when we started to play at the recital. My pianist great. She graduated Mozarteum - Salzburg. And she is a concert pianist and accompanist. I'm very lucky for working with her. And thanks again.

All the Best.

[virtuosoclarinet]

:) Thanks alot my friend. It was my exam-recital. And I was thinking a lot when the started to play Brahms..

Brahms music like a endless waterfall.. :)

Thanks again..

[ktsung1]

great job! I'm actually playing this sonata on the viola; it's amazing how you can play it on the clarinet like that

[JeannineAnne]

Great job..my late finace played this at his senior recital...and I'm attempting it on viola. Love this sonata!! Beautiful tone!!!

[virtuosoclarinet]
