Prelude - Victorian Kitchen Gardens - Paul Reade - Clarinet

I almost did this one instead of prelude by finzi for my grade 6, but cl teacher decided against it. Sorta copied the idea from tasha :P

One of my pupils did this for G6, she also got 146points, but played this a lot slower, it's a PRELUDE, not a Rondo, and the Rhytmic features need to be contained within the tempo, although quite laid back, it needs interpretation to ensure the melody between Clarinet and piano, is heard, but not forced, slow down girl, perform the music, don't just play the notes...You could go far providing your technical ability is mastered....

@bigfootuk In retrospect maaaybe I play this a bit fast. :P I tend to be a lot less controlled practicing alone than without a pianist and without my teacher. Haven't touched this un...probably since I made the video sadly =/ Thanks for the advice, and well done to your pupil (:

this piece isn't exactly the most advanced when it comes to the technical aspect, but it is extremely so in the musicality of it. there is absolutely no sense of involvement. in the music. yes you can play it, although i suggest you learn how to really practice effectively. also, you have NO idea how this piece goes. this is not a piece a beginning student should be playing. i'm sorry but you're not ready for this piece. i know what i'm saying as i play professionally though i'm still in school.

Awesome!

In my head I think I fucked up on the Aural!

But...hopefully I have passed!

Yeh you have probably done really well on your grade 3!

112 I think (: I fooked up me pieces in my head anyway, so I don't think I did too bad :P

I bet you'll have done fine :)

Did my grade 3 last monday, went better than my clarinet lol. I'd memorised all my pieces by that time so I had plenty of time to work on scales ad stuff.

5 years nerli six I think! lol

Had my exam today!

It went..okaii! :S I hope it did anyway!

What did you get in your Grade 6 last term and have you done your grade 3 piano yet?

If not, good luck for that!

[Charwarz]

Six years, seven in september I think.

You?

oh rite!! I think meditation is still in the syllabus! I only got 3 days :S Ahh! lol!

How long you been playing clarinet for then?

[Charwarz]

Meditation? I thought that was dropped two years ago...(what happened to me was I was originally doing Latin Jive, Prelude from VCK and adagio from the clarinet concerto, but LJ and adagio were dropped in the new syllabus and lj was an either or with meditation)

I did...Prelude from Finzi's five bagatelles, The thingy from the clarinet quintet by Mozart and that really horrible one by James Rae.
