Re: Tooting your own horn

Sylvain, I listened again, and I'd like to make my criticism clearer. When I say rhythm I don't just mean count correctly. By rhythm I mean playing each note exactly where you want to play it. Your rhythm problem is not as bad as maybe I made it seem in my first post. It sounds like you count at the right rhythm, so I'm pretty sure your problem is just technical.
For exmple, if you sing your part can you sing every note in the right rhythm? From listening to your recordings I am guessing you can. The problem is sometimes you have a hard transition in the fingerings, so 8th or 16th notes will be too slow (like in the 1st movement of the Muczynski in the last 3 notes of the group of 7 notes after the first first 2 notes), or too fast (one phrase after that in the same movement). I hope I explain this clearly.

Also even before I knew which clarinet you used for each piece, and before I noticed you changed mouthpiece and reed in the latest concert, I thought your sound and intonation in the Brahms is much better than in the Muczynski. I don't know if it is the different mouthpiece, different clarinet, or just a better day for you, but it works better.
