I'm sure you had the skill to go much faster! Conductor🤔

I love this! I'm getting a used clarinet soon so I can play the same piece. LOVE IT

That’s amazing Chase. Well done 👍

Great job! 👏🎷

love this fr very clean and clear

Yo I saw area e results gj! Do you have any advice for an incoming freshman next year?

What etude is this?

Congratulations on first chair man!

How did region go ?

Wow this is very good

Ah what a classic. 18 from the 32. Had it my freshman year. I'd recommend practicing your scales in thirds for the entire range of the clarinet and trying some Bb major arpeggios from the Baermann book (it's on IMSLP)

Good playing, a few things. I’d appreciate more dynamic contrast throughout. you should slow down at the meno mosso section, because it’s a different style.z (and that’s what meno mosso means) And finally I’d say your 32nds were a bit uneven. It could use some work with a metronome, but fingers are clearly there, good job!

Awesome !

That’s awesome Chase !

another day of wishing i lived in texas so i could audition for states with etudes

Atleast you tried

Wonderful performance man.

Hey! You sound reeaally good. You got all the notes and rhythms down, and I appreciate the fact that you chose to learn this etude at a reasonable tempo, rather than jumping into it really fast and ending up with sloppy fingers. Your tone is phenomenal; I rarely hear other ppl especially in high school with a tone as clear and dark as yours (it's something I struggle with personally lol). The feedback I'm gonna give you is really nitpicky, but it's just a few small things I heard that could make this even better. Firstly I would work on the 32nd note runs in measure 14. Although you are getting all the notes in, I hear a little bit of compression, and the 3rd note of each group of 32nds (I think) isn't getting all the value it should. Imo it's important to make these runs as solid as possible at this tempo, so when you speed it up, your muscle memory will kick in and it'll just be light work for you. I think the cause of this (for the second run in 14) is that you're anticipating that jump from the B flat down to the F (which is difficult to begin with) so you're trying to get that note out a little too fast and it's making that A right before it almost nonexistent. Another tip is that in the meno mosso section, at the end of measure 22, I would hold that high D out a bit longer, and take a second to breathe. Although it's still in time, if I'm a judge or even just a listener, I'd wanna appreciate every bit of your tone color on that altissimo note, since getting any altissimo note to be in tune and sound as dark as you're making it is pretty dang difficult. At first I thought you chose to do that because you had a silent metronome going on or smth, which you couldn't afford to get off with, but then I heard you pause after a couple other breath marks later on in the etude, so if I were you, I'd definitely do that here. Other than that, I really couldn't find anything else that stood out to me. I have no clue what area ur in, (ik it's somewhere in Texas tho lmao), but playing all of your etudes like you did this one would easily allow you to advance to area, at least where I live. I wish you the best of luck, and happy practicing! :)
