This is an incredibly useful video. It demonstrates how the 2 octave glissando at the beginning of Rhapsody in Blue can be executed.

You are a good instructor, very informative. Thank you.

Any valid basic principles to go by when trying to write a clarinet gliss? (a range, interval limit or something)

Also, nothing is valid! Every player is different with their limits and every composer hears things differently. Just gotta try it out with the player. Also when I made these videos almost nobody around me could slap-tongue, now a LOT of people can. I'm already a dead meme!

Hello Friend! help me, I play music reading the score, I can not decorate, play without reading, can you tell me how I can study to decorate a score?

@tpark89

Liz Claro hm, not totally sure what you mean by decorate? But if I'm understanding closely, one good way to learn the Gershwin solo is by listening to a few recordings and try to emulate as closely as you can to the ones you like. Kind of like transcribing jazz solos :)

Do you have any more tips for glissandos in the altissimo range? I have this solo in a band piece with a gliss that starts at around a clarion D and goes to an altissimo E.

@tpark89

Yes, I would say work on your scale from the starting note to the ending note of your passage with out glissando, really pay attention to what your fingers and embouchure feel like. And then keep the same embouchure, start introducing finger glissando. At the end when you feel this is as good as it can be, add finesse by manipulating your embouchure/ voicing. Have fun!

Yo, I have been playing clarinet for 12 years, and I have tried to gliss, but I just squeak. Like it is nearly impossible to do.

You can do it! Listen to a lot of different recordings and keep trying to imitate their air flow and overall sound. Make sure your finger movements are very deliberate, as well the strong column of air is crucial. Let me know how it goes!

nice, now I will not put a descending glissando in my composition

What clarinet is this? Interesting! I noticed the finger sliding thing between f anf g# keys, I've seen this on Albert system clarinets but I don't know how's named, can you tell?
