I love the plants and the window being in view while you’re buffing. And the amount of natural light you’re getting in general! Great respite from the chaos of the bench (in general. That’s not commentary on how organized or messy your bench is lol) I’m pretty surprised you’re buffing silver plate with Red; it got drilled into us pretty hard at Red Wing to never buff silver plated keys or instruments because of how easily the soft thin plating buffs away. Hopefully you’re being gentle with it! Blue Hubble on a soft wheel could be a safer yet costly choice; that stuff is seriously awesome and worth the absurd price tag.
True, I should emphasize that I usually use an acidified thiourea solution (like Tarn-X or Empire's), rinse with water, wipe down with a cloth, and usually do some polishing by hand. If I am needing speed or a little bit more aggressiveness, I might use the buffing wheel with red rouge, but I'll be very gentle and let the compound do the work (not pressure). If I need to use extra buffing or elbow grease, I always tell the player that there is a chance some bare copper will show through. I do use the BH on a 6" loose cotton wheel (smaller circumference=less distance per rotation=slower surface speed at the edges...).
Great arrangement. Wondering if you have that available for purchase somewhere? Leading a community Clarinet Choir that would like to tackle it this year. Do you have arrangements with any further parts (i.e. 4th & alto clarinet)? Thanks. Cheers.
Yess I have to preform this song also on the bass clarinet and this made me hear how the bass line in the beginning is supposed to sound on one badass instrument, Thank you 🙂
Oh my goodness, I LOVE this! The piano concerto makes me cry and I was just sitting here wondering if anyone has transcribed it for clarinet. Did you put this into sheet music? I would absolutely purchase it if you did!
I noticed that a rope like a crossrope is a much better rope to have in the long run. while it is expensive there are cheaper alternatives online you can get. I personally get a much better workout with the ropes themselves being weighted and not the handles. plus you don't have too deal with the ropes getting kinks and curls while using it
Thanks for this video. My walmart version had rusted my sweat and rain, from using it outside. I was about to fix it, but had no clue of its parts, because they fell out. LoL!!! Thank you!!!! I really appreciate it!!!
Thank you for not talking endlessly while showing a good tip but you are putting moisture back into the clarinet by blowing through it after having swabbed it, no?
