00:00 Matt Bomer just opened up about how he prepped for his role in Maestro.
00:04 American actor Matt Bomer started his career in television by starring in the soap opera
00:09 All My Children, but has since become known for his roles in Magic Mike,
00:14 White Collar, and Fellow Travelers. Now, Bomer has a new project out where he stars as clarinetist
00:21 David Oppenheim. The star opened up to What's Trending about how he prepped for the role by
00:26 expanding his musical skills. "Alright, so stepping into the role of a clarinet player,
00:32 what was it like embodying this role for Maestro?" "Well, even though I don't use it in the film,
00:36 I actually learned to play clarinet. The scene where you meet my character, well actually,
00:40 where he meets Felicia, he's playing a clarinet sonata. So I wanted to know it just in case they
00:45 ever cut to me." "Was it like a challenge playing the clarinet? Did it come easy for you?" "When I
00:49 tell you that my teacher had to be so patient, I could do, I had this part down, you know, but
00:55 you know, learning to play clarinet takes some time and I only had like four months."
00:58 "That's not a lot of time." "But I got it down where I could fake it."
