ClarinetTalk

Clarinet info!!!!!! This blog is solely dedicated to all things clarinet. Feel free to submit anything clarinet related. Hopefully this will become a clarinet haven where we can all vent and learn new things :) By the way, I have been playing clarinet for 7 1/2 years..but I am definitely not a master of the instrument and I am always looking for tips and the things people have discovered from personal experience, the things you can't find in a book and all that. Music related stuff is also welcome.

Hello, vintage clarinet from like the 40s. You’re very smashing, now, aren’t you? Glen Miller’s band could’ve played you. And now I will, pretty little thing.

What is your favorite clarinet solo?

CLARINETS HAVE PARTIALS??!!

Me and my best friend discovered today that the fingering for the E above the staff, and an alternate fingering the second A above the staff are the same!!! WOAH!! idk why but that kind of blows my mind. 

By the way, does anyone know how to describe the notes I am talking about in a more intelligent way...like what register they are in maybe? This makes me feel music illiterate..

Which clarinet accessories would you use or recommend?

Rovner Dark

Ligature and Cap

$29.99

Rovner Ligatures will make any reed play better, in addition to improving your sound and ease of play! More rigid ligatures actually hammer the cane fibers during vibration, eventually destroying the reed's tonal vibrancy.

Vandoren Klassic

Ligature and Cap

$79.95

Vandoren's new Klassik woven ligature perfectly fits the shape of the reed and the mouthpiece and takes part in the vibration of the reed. There are two independent running knots that allow for a quick, personalized tightening, offering a great scope of tone colors.
