Played some Mozart chamber music with this quintet of fellow community orchestra wind peeps!
"Chamber music" in quotes as the piece was meant to be a showcase for 4 wind soloists (plus orchestra), and as such the piano reduction part is pretty lackluster and nowhere near as engaging as his actual piano quintet. Thanks Allen for toughing it out.
We also spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to cut the exposition - final decision was to remove the entire orchestral tutti. Maybe slightly sacrilegious but imo you're not missing anything as all the thematic material is covered at some point.
Acoustics were less than ideal. All that reverb you hear (purely natural with zero artificial ingredients) also made it very hard to listen to one another. Maybe next time I'll bring some acoustic panels in addition to the mics.
Flute - Tai Stanley Chan
Clarinet - me
Horn - Joanne Yin
Bassoon - Robert Lu
Piano - Allen Wang
Video - Stephen Murray

In hindsight, my first From Y to Y cover sounds like crap and does the awesome song no justice whatsoever. And so, here I am working on a second one. Unfortunately finals are starting this week and I have no time at all to record, so my actual covers gonna have to wait another 2 weeks. So in the meantime, heres a clarinet cover thats not actually a clarinet cover :D
Sheets are available though :)
