One thing I was upset about when I submitted an audition video YEARS ago for YTSO was the fact that the PDF available with the music did NOT include the Bolero excerpt, and yet this Masterclass video talks about it. I got disqualified for not playing all the music...
That's a good question, and the answer is that it depends. For one thing, it depends on your practice habits. To learn any instrument and make actual progress, you need to practice often and well. For example, I practice half and hour to an hour a day, 5-7 days a week. I've been playing a little less than a year. I had trouble in the beginning and made slow progress because I didn't know how to practice effectively, but once I figured out what I was doing, I began to improve more steadily.
With a translation video feature one need not speak Cantonese to get excellent information to study the Eb Clarinet. A nice selection of recital material. 🥂Excellent!
Saxophone is more easy than clarinet. 2 raisons: the intonation is not so difficult and when you use the upper register its an octave higher instead of the clarinet whose diference is a quint. So, on the sax wyth the same finger positon you get the same note (with an octave of diférence) its change many things
In addition to good practicing habits, if you have good equipment (good reeds and a good clarinet, etc.) and good technique, then you will progress faster. If you already can read music, that's a good start. I guess I can't tell you how long it will take because it depends. I guess it takes a few years to get good, but even then, you spend the rest of your life practicing and perfecting. Good luck! :)
Haha so this what an English Born Chinese sounds like? I'm a 22 year old Australian Born Chinese and I speak Canto with a pretty bad Aussie accent... I have to try really hard to not sound too Western :p but I have to say his Canto vocab is much wider than mine
Ah, the baby clarinet. The bane of our existence, as clarinetists...why, oh, why, composers, do you use it?! We can go that high with more control on our Bbs!
很高興, 驚訝, 第一次有大師不用英文、普通話,用廣東話,用香港人懂得聽的語言, 多謝您

The sound of an e-flat clarinet is unique. Thatäs why it's used!
nice beautiful tone
@MrSmoothSax Oh god yes, I reconize him from a video on here, The Rite of Spring. He played the Eb clarinet and it's part was one of a kind.

Excellent playing, very accurate and beautiful musicality. What mouthpiece and reeds do you use? Thank you!

very talented
I play Eb Clarinet in my band :D
Do you still play?
The glass mouthpiece warms the Eb tone, which tends to be shrill. Using it is a good idea.
If you hear him speak English, he speaks it with an RP British Accent.
pues la neta me gusta mucho the london symphony orchestra es lo mejor
me gusta mucho
One thing is certain- that Eb clarinet wasn't made in China! If it was, it would have cracked 3 minutes into the video. ;)

he's probably ABC
amazing player
Podrían poner subtítulos ?? Gracias.
Por cierto, toca muy bien !!
I think it wood takes for years ago to get a correct result.. Clarinet is not the easier of wind instruments

his speaking sounds so funny to me as a cantonese speaker
How appropriate that the video length is 6:22. Mozart anyone?
Podrían traducirlo? Me interesa saber qué dice. Gracias
@Thejessi403 Next to where you can see how many people have watched this.
красавец
zajebiste, propsy!
cute little clarinet hehehehehe
where's the Chi-Yu Mo Masterclass in English? I can only find this Cantonese one =[
what brand(s) does he play? instrument? mouthpiece? reed?
Sounds a bit harsh, my old Albert Systen Eb clarinet sounds much sweeter with a great tone.
What in the hell difference does it make?
ale sie michal zmienil z wygladu
same reason the piccolo trumpet exist
Why did they make him speak Cantonese?? It is clearly not his language...
对一段已经好似有D汗水了。甘吹够2个种。甘会点捏？
OMG IT'S THAT A CRYSTAL MOUTH PIECE?
He is not Cantonese. I think he is mandarin, but was asked to speak in Cantonese. I can't really place his accent.
He is Cantonese, but grew up in the UK.
支持!!!
就快吹到爆血管咁。。。
i bet he is a british born chinese
i just copyed and paste another commernt
ça ressemble plus à du hichiriki que de la clarinette mib !! MDRRRR ..... au secours l'intonation ( clarinette bontempi ?)
......“所以你吹得越恐怖就越好！”
好！
好聽! 好聽! 可是你因該要去休息一下吧, if you keep blowing, I'm afraid it wont be good for your health
@ibrokemyfingerbowlin hey could you record a masterclass that's better than this one?
I think it's just a really big dude playing a regular Bb clarinet.
People!!!!!!!!!!!!! transcipt....look under transcipt....geeezz!
wow couldn't this be in english?? he actually has a british accent
His speech seems very European to me.
i dont even know wat i just said
A bit like an alto sax with clarinet fingerings.
MrHappyRandomness not quite. this would closer match the sopranino sax. the clarinet match for the Alto sax would be the Alto clarinet
snake charmer
Ah, the baby clarinet. The bane of our existence, as clarinetists...why, oh, why, composers, do you use it?! We can go that high with more control on our Bbs!
所以你吹得越恐怖就越好！
Or, at least, as high as you will want to hear it...
no me gusta what ever the hell that means
佢講野好搞笑...haha
His cantonese isnt very fluent though...he has an accent
