Re: Mozart adagio by Chinese clarinetist

I think the balance is off, and because the clarinet is miked, the intonation problems are much more obvious. Too much bass, and because of absent winds (and too little upper string miking), feels disconnected from the quite penetrating clarinet sound.

I think its hard to assess his playing based on this, when the vast majority of performances are not miked in any way and the timbre/timbral changes are different at a distance.

Personally I find the concept of performing this in a club a bit pointless. The lights don’t add anything and I can’t see why anything needs to be miked at all.
