Still, I was close enough with the Pink Floyd to wish that I had a microphone and some distortion software to add a little "crunch" to the clarinet. Guess it's time to go back and practice with Mistle Thrush's Agus Amarach album all those tracks are really clarinet-friendly. And that's just in the chalumeau register- I was really hoping to wing that high solo for "In the Flesh" in the clarion, but my embouchure just ain't up to it yet. The album as a whole has me working with all flats, which I can get used to, but "In the Flesh" tosses in just enough accidentals to throw me off my stride. ![]() I picked out the vocals and signature riffs for "The Thin Ice" and "Another Brick in the Wall" easily enough, but the anthemic guitar part on "In the Flesh" proved more troublesome than expected. ![]() It's an old plastic Bundy B-flat clarinet, had it since middle school not a great sound, but I'm fairly comfortable with it after nearly twenty years (man, wish I'd spent more of that practicing), which is why I'd rather use it for this purpose instead of my bass. Earlier this week I became obsessed with figuring out key passages from Pink Floyd's The Wall on my clarinet.
