Reed Burn

Video Find of the Day

I tried to learn to play the clarinet when I was 10 or 11. The schools tolerated my efforts for about 3 years, enabling me to miss many gym classes thanks to scheduling conflicts. Finally they said, no more, you suck. But I still have memories of reed burn and mouth fatigue. This guy probably gets reed burn a lot. The video provider is zoharisrael, who I'm guessing is himself, or someone or some-entity in business with him.

Major Keys Suck

Video Find of the day

At one time in my life I wanted to learn to play the clarinet. It didn't work out. The image I had in mind of me playing clarinet was that of this Azerbaijani video. The image my instructor had in mind was that of a cross between a Western orchestral workhorse and Benny Goodman. I wanted minor keys, and backgrounds like you see here. My instructor insisted I learn major keys, first, and play in front of a dull green curtain. That duck wouldn't fly.

Soulful Epirotika


Video Find(s) of the Day

The description says the performance was in Thessaly, but the title says the music is traditional to Epiros.

EPIROTIKA



Here's another. This one clearly says in the description that the music is traditional to Epiros.
