So what is written there?
What is the underline of the solo? _
_ _ _ _ Semplicie in modo di canzone.
What does it mean?
_ _ _ _ Simple, simple.
So if you play like this in a chamber version, it would be lovely.
But it's a huge orchestra.
And normally you need a big stage for hosting this huge orchestra.
So the hall will be really big.
If you play like this, and then, did he play already? _ _
Really try to do this beautiful sound of yours, just play out, play out.
Now there's a wonderful exercise for this.
[C] Do you use circular breathing? Not usually.
Not usually.
Do you?
Yes.
If you don't do circular breathing, it's a pretty difficult solo. _
It's a very difficult solo.
If you use circular breathing, it is still very difficult.
But I have an exercise which, from Günter Passin, one of these big German guys,
fantastic teacher, gorgeous player.
Can _ _ you play this on one breath?
No.
No.
If you really want to [B] use your air [Eb] like a singer, like to [G] fill yourself with air,
try once, and then it's [Bb] possible to play this on one breath.
Just [Ab] at home for a little.
Because if you do this, this [Fm] will change not only your oboe [N] playing,
but this will change your life. _
Air in your body, mostly oxygen of course, will change everything.
_ Ah, life is so much brighter.
Look, suddenly the sky is blue.
Before I'm sure it was grey.
Now it's blue.
_ _ _ _ Try, you know there's_
Out of the used air, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ fill yourself till you think you explode and then you start.
Can you try this once for me?
_ _ _ Can you just stand like an accountant?
_ _ Can you just stand like a wood [Em] chopper?
Is it [Bb] a wood chopper?
[Db] Is it called wood chopper?
I don't know.
What is it called?
The [N] people in Canada?
_ What?
Lumberjack.
Lumberjack.
_ Think of a big beard and muscles like this.
_ _ _ _ And now fill yourself everywhere with air.
Can you [Gb] do that?
_ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Did you see that?
Sorry, sorry.
[B] What I see is this. _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ So this [C] is a twentieth of the amount you can breathe.
Can you just do this?
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Ab] And then you start.
I want just [F] to let you know the feeling of a filled_
That's what a singer does. _
_ Ah.
[N] Yeah?
Fill yourself with air once.
_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ Without [D] taking a breath.
Without taking [N] a breath.
Can you try to make it even more simple?
A little more simple, please.
Really, don't do so much. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Very straight.
Very straight.
It's like a_ From Naples.
A song from Naples.
Very simple. _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
Yes.
Beautiful.
Go on. _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ [G] Super.
[Bb] Very good.
