  • Lovely tone, shame about intonation. Happens to the best of us, going into a boiling hot performance venue and ending up ridiculously sharp... Maybe tuning to an oboe's A with the band then adjusting would have helped?

  • i love it!

  • @Damis06 Personally I really like the soloist because he plays with a lot of color and tonal variation - and that is just how I like this concerto played. For me, he captured the spirit of this piece - the complaints some others have pale into insignificance. There are other soloists who can turn in a technically flawless performance - yet they can sound a bit boring. That is why - to me - Magnus Holmander is a very special and unique talent.

  • Clearly not a professional, but a very great student. Squeek happens to the best of us.

  • The clarinet was cold!!! solosit came from a colder room, sorry!

  • Sounds great! I don't get all these comments about intonation and tone. If he's the soloist playing with a professional band, i doubt his tone and intonation are anything less then perfect. His tone isn't orchestral, i'll give you that, but it's not BAD. It just sounds like he's a band clarinet. The slight intonation issues are probably due to the recording and the hall it was played it. In my uneducated opinion, great job to the soloist and band!

  • @shishirth I think you wanted to reply to klattaclarinet, not me, if not then you seemed to have missed my point entirely.

  • @miscellaneousthings its the intonation of the accompanying wind band that's the much bigger problem actually and that may be setting the soloist off at times

  • @klattaclarinet you can't just blame the clarinet...
