She has a wonderful sound.

I've been in a class like this... the teacher was my junior high school teacher. Every class felt like a master class with this guy. I stopped playing after three years. After more than ten years later, I started up again.

Such a great clarinettist must take his clarinet with him and make examples. I think he was very well payed for lecturing

Me and my high school band director. No lie. This so reminds me of him. Except he wouldn't talk during my playing. Everything he had to say was after I played a passage. Always hankering me about those damn little tid bits that high school teachers don't usually do. Guess I should start practicing again, shouldn't I? I really miss people like this. Can't wait to take lessons from college professors. They will rip me apart and I'll cry from nervousness and love every bit of it. *masochist*

As far as I know, there's no Drucker recording of the Galanta solo, though one might exist on an air-check. He never plays during his master classes, probably because his intensity would overwhelm the students.

very lucky woman, but very scary experience. haha.

She's a great player, but he get's on her for every little thing! It just shows me that I'll always be able to improve no matter where I am musically.

Max, he is a wonderful teacher/ coach. I've had the good fortune to play for him in a master class. I thought his remarks re rhythm were spot-on. His teaching is like his playing, a bit flamboyant and very passionate

He was unique.

The student is a very good player; Mr. Drucker is correct in helping her put more "cultural color" into this piece......

Believe me, she is not intimidated. She is engaged. A lot to learn. She would be the first to tell you.

He certainly has an opinion.

bravi!

Девушка очень хорошо звучит❤️

why not put his performance-so we can hear his playing.

@nedyalkopetkov Better than being soft spoken.

Oh boy... I should not watch this... been playing the clarinet for 3 months.... the gap is gigantic...

How are you getting along now? I've been playing for two years (adult beginner!) and am far, FAR away from this level. Cool to watch, though.

He wants more intensity.

Posture is elementary. Do whatever works for you.

In master classes after the First interuption, the concentration of the student is over!. After that there is only a teachers traing tô bê a show business.

He's Stanley Drucker, he's intense.

lol guys like him? guys who are principals at the new york phil?

Masterclasses are educational but musically frustrating to witness--the constant interruptions, the student more or less getting it. Masters may be right but they give the impression of being too picky and piecemeal. Why couldn't we hear the whole thing first and then the master give his comments?

The best masterclass is to hear the master play.

She has a better tone than he had.

His sound is much better heard live than in a recording.

This is an embarrassing and egomaniacal style of teaching. People who have Stockholm syndrome will love to be taught in this way. There are much more effective ways for him to communicate what has wants her to do and more effective ways to bring this out in her. I actually feel sick watching this. This student is paying money for someone to treat her terribly and borderline harass her. Just watch him angrily scream "sing" at her. Pathetic. And this is one of the reasons why no one wanted to study with Drucker at Juilliard. The way he is acting in this lesson probably has more to do with which side of the bed he woke up on today, and his own lack of people skills and decorum. It is sad that music students have come to expect to be treated so poorly by their teachers. Stanley Drucker loved me at my Juilliard audition, but after watching this, I'm really glad that I didn't study with him when I was there and glad that I never took a lesson with him. N.B.- Laura Ardan, who studied with Drucker, has a famous recording of this piece as Principal Clarinetist of the Atlanta Symphony. She plays it nothing like Drucker wants here, but she sounds absolutely brilliant and gorgeous.

Very bad he hadn't his clarinet with him. You pay to attend such a Masterclass and the teacher has no instrument. That's a shame

A lot of teachers don't play that much during masterclasses anyways...I know teachers that don't play at all for their students in lessons

You are right. They don't have to play too much, but at least they should bring their instrument. They are very well played. What for?

Amazing teacher, bad student lol
