The clarinets are always two.
They don’t play alone.
They start with legati,
and always as a chord.
I think that it was very important for Mozart.
He mentioned how he was impressed by them
the first time he heard them
in a concert.
This beautiful sound becomes amazing
when it’s double.
So from the first notes
it’s possible to listen to this beauty
because they keep them naturally
and their duration has an impact.
At that point,
I must say
that its’ very important to know
how you can play music
with a clarinet
to understand its depth
but also its difficulty
even in the Orchestra
as it has a central role
in the woodwinds.
