Cardona won’t blow just ANY woodwind

Choreographer, Wally Cardona, in an interview with Gia Kourlas for TimeOutNY, reveals this little tidbit about his past:

“I played clarinet. I’ve got to say the clarinet is one of the most embarrassing instruments to play. There’s something about the way you hold it and have to pucker up your mouth, and how you end up with a puddle of spit between your legs. [Laughs] Not cool. I wish I had done oboe.”

Ooooh, okay, because I thought what was gay “embarrassing” about playing the clarinet is that it was a long black piece of wood that you play by blowing through a reeded mouthpiece while holding it between your legs.

I’m still going to try to see his piece next week at DTW, even if he won’t be blowing anything.
