My teacher advised me not to take up boxing, but now that I see you do the moves I feel like putting on my gloves again. 😉 Thanks a lot for this upload. 👌😌🎶

@@john.kurokawa I remember all too well the nerves that ran through my throat before a performance. Fortunately, I usually mastered them, but your tips would certainly have helped me at the time.

Thanks!!! Great opportunity

I only get nervous if I know I'm not prepared. Other than that, I'm there to ham it up!!!

I have an audition and a recording next week, and this was so encouraging! Thank you so much for making this video!

​@@john.kurokawaThank you! They both went well. The most helpful advice from here was "Practice the way you're going to perform". I found that this greatly improved my reed choices, and it was very apparent in my practice recording. :)

⚕ Pack a small first aid kit with aspirin and a few band aids.

I ran into your account yesterday. It's crazy how informational and helpful you have been in changing my perception of what I thought was normal in clarinet playing. Thank you for spreading your knowledge and teaching such vital concepts that often go misunderstood🫡
