This is surreal

[clarinetalpha]

When the conductor goes on a rant about God knows what of a piece

[clarinetalpha]

When the conductor takes a piece waaaayyyyy too slow (or fast)

Finding a really good recording of your repertoire

Actual footage of me trying to learn a new tonguing technique

When I accidentally play something right and my teacher asks how I did it

[whatshouldwecallflautists]

Feuds between performance and education majors

It’s like:

[clarinetalpha]

When you play a perfect chromatic scale up AND down

[clarinetalpha]

When the squad is in the same chamber group

[clarinetalpha]

When you forget your A clarinet and you're playing Scheherazade

[treble--maker]

is a didgeridoo player called a didgeridude 

[clarinetalpha]

@night-fury-scream OMGOSH!!! So I guess it's not a didgeridooer.... XD

[clarinetalpha]

When the conductor motions to you to stand up because you had a solo

[whatshouldwecallclarinet]

we should call clarinet 'firewood'

That name is already reserved for your corpse. 

[clarinetalpha]

Mwahahahaha

[clarinetalpha]

When the conductor gets lost

[clarinetalpha]

When you notice someone didn’t swab out their instrument

[clarinetalpha]

The principal oboe trying to pump him/herself up for Le tombeau de Couperin

When I show people my crystal mouthpiece
