I have been working on scales, intervals and arpeggios. Also learning to play different styles of music from classic jazz to more contemporary sounds. I’m currently working on getting a good sound out of the instrument, learning how to phrase and also how to use dynamics to express the music. As I progress I plan to work on improvisation, incorporating different techniques such as bending, vibrato and articulation. I’m also interested in exploring different kinds of reeds and mouthpieces to find the perfect sound.
Introduction. Hello there,
I have been playing clarinet for about three months. I’m an experienced guitar player, writer and performer and wanted a fresh challenge. My intention is to learn how to improvise freely and expressively. I found a good teacher locally. Listening to a lot of contemporary jazz at the moment which is mostly saxophone based but Anat Cohen is a big inspiration on clarinet. I will probably have a go at sax in the future but not in a hurry. The clarinet spoke to me when I first picked it up, such a good sound.
