BRAHMS, Johannes

Sonata for clarinet and piano in E flat major op. 120 no. 2

III. Andante con moto

Pascal Moraguès, professor

Pablo Tirado Villaescusa, student

Patricia Araúzo Rodríguez, accompanying pianist

Prof. Pascal Moraguès begins the masterclass with a brief correction about the tuning for the first note. Afterwards, he makes some suggestions on breathing to get the suitable phrasing.
Tempo is very good, but he misses more form and internal connection between phrases in order to show the dancing character of the melody.
Moraguès carries on his explanations about tuning, notes attack, color changes, phrasing and ternary dance character, among others.
