    I really appreciate this video. I love repairing instruments, especially clarinet and flute. I don’t really have much access to a school to learn the task. I think my best option is to intern at my nearest Instrument repair store. I am recently graduated from High school and new to figuring stuff like this out, but I hope I’ll get there eventually

    That's great! NAPBIRT is also a great resource to check out if you can afford the yearly membership. Their facebook page is super resourceful and supportive and they have regular classes/ meetings. But yes I agree, try to meet the people at your local music store and see if you can talk to the owner about your situation. Best wishes!

    Do you think it is possible to get hired or intern at a local music shop to then become a instrument repair technician? It’s because I’m still in high school but, my intended major isn’t going to be music related, but I still have a hobby and passion for instruments, enough so that I would like to become a repair technician as a side job. Please provide some of your valuable insight! Also, nice video, was very informative!

  • @tpark89

    Thanks for watching and good question. The answer is yesm you can get trained at the job, but you usually have to earn your place by working other jobs before they trust you will stick around. Imagine if you were a small business owner and you rely mostly on relatively small modern sales margins, rentals, and school rental repairs. Taking in someone to train them for a month or two before they start becoming proficient at tasks takes times (money) out of my business. If you come in the beginning of summer let's say June, get trained, start making some progress through July and start doing some good work in August, in reality you've lost two months of profit and therefore lost money on someone. Unless they stick around long enough to make up for the loss and start bringing profit. Now, this is all hypothetical and everyone has different background/ skillsets/ learning curve, etc., and every store has different training programs and needs. Usually when you get paid to learn/ free education, it is the least predictable trajectory. You will learn a lot for sure, but you really have to take the initiative to try to make sure you're always learning something new and that they are toward your goals. Versus, if you pay to go to a school to learn, you will get a lot more focused and concentrated education. No repair school is cheap by any means, but you will make valuable connections and get a pretty good overview of almost every basic band instrument repair. My opinion is that it's probably best if you get all kinds of education, at least as big of a variety as you can. At a music store I learned a lot of stuff I can't really learn in school. And I'm sure there's a lot of info I missed out on by not going to school. Do what seems the most appropriate for you and your situation and go from there.

    Detailed review 👍. I did not think the cheaper clarinet sounded bad. It was much simpler. No roundness to the tone. The professional, more expensive clarinet had a much fuller sound, more depth. When i heard the cheaper one first, i thought, "Not bad." When compared to the professional model, I heard the difference. It is a shame it came with the torn pad and the bent bridge. Quality control should be better. I don't expect a cheap instrument to last long, but i do not expect it to have issues right out of the box. Thanks for the review and your wonderful playing. 😊 🎶

    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
    @tpark896 ай бұрын

    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!

    Purchased a Yinfente Bb as a backup since my main clarinet was in the shop for over 5 weeks (few years ago; play in a community band). My only beef with it is then alternative fingering low Eb to Bb keying; Eb is a bit stuffy and sharp. Other than that, it plays and sounds awesome. At first it stunk, but after bore oiling it, it really plays well. The one I got is their Rosewood model. Enjoyed the review by the way. I have the Lyrique (Ridenour) professional hard rubber clarinet and it plays awesome as well. It is around $1000 so maybe something to consider for your students as well, but hard to beat $336 for the Yinfente. lol :)

    I like your video. I was a professional in an opera and ballet orchestra. I had two Buffet R13s both from 1968. My Bb I got from Robert Marcellus and my A from Ted Johnson. When I stopped playing classical music professionally I wanted to play jazz and sold my A clarinet to purchase an alto saxophone ( have a P.Mauriat System 76). Every time I open my double case I feel bad that I have an empty spot for the A. Now I won't feel bad and it only cost me $137. Also my wife never heard me play A clarinet , like Stravinsty 3 pieces which I studied when I was a student of Rudolf Jettel. When Jettel put markings on the sheet music he said these were put there by Stravinsky himself whom Jettel knew personally. Thanks again for a great video. I suppose I could have spent more for a fancy looking rosewood or cocobolo but there would be no point, I am totally retired and only play for myself and make recordings on Sound Cloud - I am playing all 4 parts - soundcloud.com/user-313342423-581826407/rhapsodish-by-alexis-cielas-11420-742-pm
