Do you know the Bass Clarinet ? It has a very mellow bass sound, but can go also very high. Check out what we can do with it ! #english #instrument #music #bassclarinet #clarinet #anothercoolthing
Me personally nah, I tried saxophone and I guess I was so bad my band teacher at the time just moved me to bass clarinet, and I've just stuck with the instrument 😂😂
Plzzzzz, the low Clarinets always go lower than their Saxophone counterpart. Bb Bass Clarinet has the same fundamental pitch as a Tenor Sax but it can go ALMOST one octave lower with the Bb extension. Got to get a BariSax with an extension to hit that same low concert Bb. That disparity continues on as the Clarinets and Saxophones get bigger.
I play bass clarinet and i used to play clarinet but I decided to switch to bass clarinet since i saw a girl in 8th grade play it and two years later im still playing it i dont regret the switch 😭❤️
He just casually has a low c extension bass clarinet that’s a Dream I just have a cheap one all jokes aside you’re very talented and help you keep making videos
You're a connoisseur ! I have indeed a Low C extension, I wanted the most bass possible haha. It's a Kessler Custom V2 Bass Clarinet and it's more affordable than the ones from major brand
I played trumpet for from the 5th grade all the way through highschool but during the middle of my junior year I switched to clarinet and really enjoyed in. Then senior year i stepped up and played bass clarinet for the wind ensemble. Needless to say it is my favorite instrument and my favorite to play.
all bass instruments are the best in my op, bass trombone, bass clarinet, bassoon, bari and bass sax, and even all instruments within the contrabass range
@@Another-Cool-ThingWell I march shows with a low c bass clarinet without a strap and honestly I got quite quickly used to it. In the beginning it is quite painfull im the wrists but it's fine.
I haven’t played since high school, but I still have my bass clarinet. I just ordered some more reeds and I’m gonna start playing again! I want to find good solos to work on.
For me, in the low register the bari sax is more punchy and present, while the bass clarinet is more smooth. Two different usages :) . But when I put a Fibracell reed in my bass clarinet I found the sound to be a lot brighter and closer to a saxophone... This gave me a video idea ! I'll shoot a little comparison :)
😂 Joke aside, the modern bass clarinet was created by the inventor of the saxophone, and this was before he created the saxophone so the shape of the bass clarinet was an inspiration for him when creating it :)
It's planned :D . I have some other instruments to show, but I'm in the process to transition to longform videos (that's why recent videos are shorter, but also of better quality) and I'll redo some of the instruments I've already shown like the Hulusi. Thank you for your comment :)
The only other Clarinet that has a wider range than the Bb Bass is the EEb Contra-Alto Clarinet. I tell everybody get the Contra because it can hit that one low note you cant hit on the Bass and it can go just as high as the Bass 😂
You'll have to remove de mouthpiece to do this effect, this position is similar to the ney flute embouchure, it's quite hard to get but it's a nice trick :)
It's a Low C bass clarinet, it has 3 extra notes on the bottom register :) . This clarinet is a Low C Kessler Bass Clarinet Gen 2, it costs only 2500$ and is quite good :)
The tongue bends into a spoon like shape and apply a suction to the reed, it pulls the reed backward then release it, producing a "Pop" sound If you blow air while releasing the reed you'll do a nice attack for your note :) You can also do "Open Slap Tongue" by opening your mouth when you release it I do both slaps in this video :) Check tutorials from Beatbox Sax on RU-vid, I learnt that way !
@@wiredbassclarinetIt's the Wood model from PiezoBarrel, I asked a professionnal to sold the adaptator on my bass clarinet neck, and you how did you fix it on your instrument ?
@@Another-Cool-Thing I also had a professional tech solder mine on - I have it on the right side of the lower section of the neck (my neck is also a two part neck, like yours).
@@Another-Cool-Thing I'm asking because I have tinnitus and it's really bad at the moment so it could be that. Anyway, does it take a lot of effort to play the bass? Lower saxophones (e.g. baritone) takes much more effort than say soprano or alto.
