  • Three nerds (or is it one schizophrenic nerd) perform Mozart's Clarinet quintet on Wind synthesizers..
    Many people assoociate this piece of music withe the TV episode of MASH where Dr. Charles Winchester (no relation) taught some POWs to play it.
    Listen to more music by John WInchester and the Sonatabella Orchestra

    Of course I've heard of electric guitars, violins, cellos, bases, etc. They have been around for a long time.What surprises me is that so many people have not heard of an electric clarinet or 'wind synthesizer. They are actually quite commonly used in recordings and have been around for over 30 years.

    It was great! Being a nerd isn't a bad thing. Nerds make the world go round. They put the periodic table together, invented the light build and wheel, mapped the stars and the seas. Nerd made the world round. Thank u fellow nerd

    It's so cool that you have your own version of Mozart's Clarinet Quintet.

  • @JohnWinchesterMusic
    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    Thanks for the nice comment. As for your question about those "Clarinets": they are "wind Synthesizers". They look (sort of) and play like a clarinet but they are electronic midi instruments. They are breath sensitive for volume and have a bite-able reed to bend notes so they are highly expressive, like a 'real' instrument, but they are midi instruments so they can be made to sound like a clarinet, Sax, flute, oboe, etc.

    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    Thanks for your comment. It is a strange coincidence that you referred to both the Piano Guys and Lindsey Stirling because they are my two favorite CZcams channels. Both of them have such outstanding music and videos. I am honored that you would put me in their league or even in the same sentence. Perhaps if I continue to work hard and get better at my videos one of them might actually see my work and like it, but for now they are far above my league. Thank you so much for the compliment.

    Brilliant as always!! Keep up this wonderful work and thanks for sharing it with us!

  • @JohnWinchesterMusic
    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    The instrument is a Wind Synthesizer (Electric clarinet). It is breath sensitive aso the player can control the sound and has a bitable reed so he can bend the notes. Thus it is much more expressive than the standard keyboard. As for the musician(s), there is only one of me. Green screens are wonderful things.

  • @JohnWinchesterMusic
    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    I filmed this in a church just because it was available it had good even lighting ( I didn't have studio lighting at that time) and it has outstanding acoustics. I know that this video was done with midi instruments so I didn't need acoustics since I recorded straight from the line but I went there initially to record some pieces with my euphonium. While I was there I decided to film this video.

  • @JohnWinchesterMusic
    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    Thank you for your nice comment. As for your question, each person was filmed in that building, on his spot, in front of a greenscreen. That way I was sure the lighting was right and consistent with the setting Then they were all placed in front of a video of just the background setting. Thanks again.

  • @JohnWinchesterMusic

    I often call them Electric Clarinets but their technical name is 'Wind Synthesizer'. They are breath sensitive with a bitable reed to bend notes so, as an electric instrument, they are highly expressive.

    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    The instrument is an 'electric clarinet' or ' Wind Synthesizer'. it is a midi instrument but it is breath sensitive for volume and has a bitable 'reed' so I can bend the notes, much like a conventional clarinet. Even though it is an electronic instrument it is highly expressive, like a wind instrument, and has the versatility of an electronic midi instrument too. I can set it to any key and give it the sound of a flute, oboe, or any other instrument. Thus, it has the best of both worlds.

    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    I understand your point and I appreciate its merits. We all know that the synthesizer can go so many directions and is not constrained or even in its best element to simply play conventional composed music (as I did here). However, All performances cannot be all things all of the time. There are many examples on youtube of how far we can go with a wind synth. I wanted to show that it could also be tamed and conventional. It's all part of the diversity of this amazing instrument.

    @JohnWinchesterMusic  Před 12 lety

    With a wind synth, breath control is still very important and the fingering is as trick as any wind instrument but it is still much easier to blow than a clarinet.
