  • wait, did he have five lessons in total/ never touched a clarinet before that, or did he just have 5 lessons to prepare the piece?

  • he bought the clarinet in July and noodled on it during the summer, had five lessons prior to this performance. He and his musical guide (playing piano) decided on a Friday to play moonglow and the performance was on the following Wednesday. He had heard the song that summer/fall for the first time. He had played alto sax for about a year but after hearing his grandfather play clarinet (and managed to play a scale on it) decided that he had to play clarinet.

  • Wow... First question I have is what instruments did he play first.

    Second, how did he manage to get such a perfect tone after 5 lessons??

    With any luck, I'll be that consistent in tone quality by my 5th *year*.

  • His first instrument was a soprano recorder, then an alto recorder and sopranino. His school's music department teaches the Orff Schulwerk method. Next, he played the alto saxophone, he just picked it up and started playing songs. . .Saw his grandfather play the clarinet summer 2006 and played a scale on it and decided that he had to play the clarinet! Honestly, I have no idea how he does what he does. It is great fun to watch him play!
