I have a Ridenour clarinet also. Plays well and use it in a Dixieland band.

Where did all your vids go?

Saved a bunch of them for posterity, but I want to try something new. It seems a bit extreme, but I feel it's for the best. No more copyright claims on my videos.

Jokes on you I only use bis and side B flat on sax

Why do you keep saying the eb/bb 1 0 0 - 1 0 0 it's not correct? We clarinet player use it all the times! There are even specific written etudes based upon the use of the "fork position" (as we call it in italy) on both Magnani, Jean-Jean and Lefevre! Out of tune it's just a matter of lips and sometimes instrument setup! Beyond that, I love your new series!

@@Albanothemadman let me guess, saxophone player pretending to be a clarinet teacher? Well, the opposite could be right too... We should need a "low effort woodwinds teachers series" as well! I am all good, but you are doing great! You look great, even younger. And you sound as always amazing! No low effort in your playing!

The 100|100 fork fingering works for Bb but is too sharp for Eb… or concert Db as he said in the beginning of the video. I believe Magnani played full boehms like many old Italian masters so he had access to the superior xox|ooo fingering for chalumeau Eb. Lefevre was from before the Boehm clarinet… 100|100 was not possible, it was a different fork fingering with a different sound on a different clarinet system which almost certainly didnt have the side key Eb yet. 100|100 Eb sounds bad and is out of tune, and is used most often used incorrectly by sax doublers (who are the target audience of this video, not players encountering contrived specific cases in the very advanced Jean-jean etudes). You are not the target audience.

@@ghoulcaster I don't think I am the wrong target. It's always good to hear other perspective on how to teach others how to play an instrument. As a teacher for both saxophone and clarinet I feel this content is just great for me. By the way, me and Joe "know each other" through the web. We go way back since Jam of the week times, so that´s why I feel I can chat with him, since we had so much fun through commenting our videos for a long time! @Albanothemadman is an INCREDIBLE player on every instrument I heard him play. He always find a way to make what he wants with whatever thing is in his hands. What you are saying may be true for your instrument, but not the truth just because in your clarinet the 100 I100 position works like that. My experience is that Eb flat is great while Bb is quite flat. Of course it will never be perfekt, it is just a solution for quick passages. The Magnani etudes is most based on Eb, för instance. The Magnani method I used was based on simple Boehm, not complete (you can tell from the picture AND fingering chart at the very beginning of the massive book)

If it's too sharp, you can add another finger so you play it with 1 and 2 of the right hand. If it's too flat, use just 2 (your middle finger) instead.
