Hello Everyone,
I play clarinet in a community orchestra. We are going to perform Rhapsody
in Blue in mid-
April and I will be playing the clarinet solo at the beginning of that
piece. I'm a pretty competent player, but have never had the chance to do
this piece before. I think I "get" how to do the gliss by sliding my
fingers off the keys one at a time, but I would appreciate suggestions on
how to do the best job possible. I have of course been listening to several
recordings of the piece.
Thanks,
Julie
