I played the clarinet in 3rd-9th grade. I also played the flute for two years. I remember seeing this wooden clarinet in the music store for like $2500. This was in the 90s and I remember thinking, who the hell would own one of those. My mom would tell me “You need to start practicing more! You need to show me that you’re serious about playing and maybe we can get you a clarinet like that…” girl bye, I’m not falling for that trick again. She promised to get me one of those little cars you drive around and that never happened. Today i realize it’s bc we were broke AF - but it was an absolutely STUNNING clarinet. All dark and ebony with a satin sheen that shone through the night. It was AMAZING!

I wished how an xylophone was made, I used to play one of them during my 8th grade resource class in the music room, I had fun but it was wooden. Passed that class very easily.

@ianmintz12806 21 күн бұрын

Yeah, the xylophone, along with its cousins the vibraphone, glockenspiel and marimba are percussion instruments that you can play melodies and harmonies and songs on.

the way that Piano cases are refinished, is much like the way that traditional Japanese Lacquer is done. each layer is applied, and after it dries, it is sanded, and polished and then the same is done to the next, and so on and so forth. most Japanese Lacquer pieces can have up to 100 coats applied. it is an Amazing Art form. 😀

From a retired symphony clarinet guy: one time at the conductor’s house, I was seated at a table where all the other people (some not musicians), had played the clarinet when young! It is truly a universal instrument, being used not only in Mozart symphonies, but also Greek and Turkish folk music.

This is all very interesting, but I'm a little disappointed that we can't see how fine, hand-crafted pianos are made, not these outsourced, 40 days from start to finish jobs. I would like to see how the fine, cultured pianos like Steinway and Fazioli are crafted without all the laminating, and using wood that's aged 30 _years._ And those who make them aren't 'technicians,' they're 'artisans.' They use those terms in this video.
