Hi! Good question! It can be confusing to put into words which part of the tongue to use when articulating on the reed. My teacher growing up used to tell us to prepare for tonguing on the reed by practicing off of the clarinet, and to pretend like we were spitting spit balls across the room. That creates the kind of "tension" or "spring tension" or "strength" that you need from the tip of your tongue. If I understood your question correctly, I would avoid using the part of your tongue that is behind the tip (or lower than) the tip of your tongue. That can cause a real "thud" quality of sound to your articulation (in my experience). I hope I was able to provide some clarification, if not please let me know and I will try to come up with a better solution for you, but I would try the "spit ball" technique first and see if it helps. Thanks! -Julianna

Hi! Great question! I have not tried any of the D’addario mouthpieces, but I have tried the reeds and really like them. Just by looking at the specs on D’addario’s website I would think the X10E would be more resistant based on how they describe the facing of the mouthpiece. I’m copying this info from Brad Behn’s website about clarinet mouthpiece facings (he makes a great mouthpiece if you ever want to check his site out), www.clarinetmouthpiece.com/mouthpiece-nomenclature-guide# “Facing has influence over everything. The facing is the curve that the reed vibrates against. It runs the entire length from where it leaves the flat surface of the table all the way up to the tip of the mouthpiece. A facing's length, opening, nature, efficiency, and symmetry will affect the playability of the mouthpiece. If the facing length is short, then the resistance will be high. With shorter facing lengths, softer reeds are required. Smaller curvatures can also give the player a sense that the tip is more open in feel. However, with a longer facing length, the resistance decreases. Longer facings with flatter curvatures require harder reeds and can give the player a sense that the tip is more closed in feel.” I would probably recommend that you try the X10E and the X15E just to see what you like better. The mouthpiece I currently play on is very resistant (James Pyne Bel Canto). As I get older I’m noticing that I just don’t have the same stamina to play on that mouthpiece, so I might start looking for a new moutpiece as well. I hope this helps! Let me know what you end up getting. Thanks! -Julianna

@@clarinetnotestudio4851 Thank you for the full answer! I'll keep you updated. I also like the Reserve classic reeds, they're more responsive than V12s in a way. I just prefer V12s cause one box easily lasts 1 year plus even when I'm full-time playing and they are more reliable. Cons are that some need softening to bee playable, even on M15 which likes stiffer reeds but the quality and sound is top.

Hi! Great question! Without hearing you and what you're experiencing my initial answer would be "no", you shouldn't feel the reed vibrate against your lips. However, if you're new to the clarinet, then yes you might notice the reed vibrating against your lower lip. At this point I would evaluate your embouchure first before continuing with articulation. I have a video on clarinet embouchure basics ruclips.net/video/BR-9vtpeQzg/видео.html and here is a PDF on embouchure basics tinyurl.com/3vxz9pk6. If you feel like your embouchure is in good shape, then I would try to determine if your somehow using your bottom lip as an anchor of sorts to control what your tongue is doing (i.e., a form of anchor tonguing). If you feel like you are not anchor tonguing, maybe try taking a little more mouthpiece in your mouth to dampen the vibration on the lower lip to make sure you have enough clearance to tongue on the reed. Also, make sure that your lower lip is rolled over your bottom teeth (you might have to make slight adjustments with your lower lip depending on the thickness/thiness of your lower lip). I hope one of these recommendations will help you. Let me know how it goes and if you have any other questions. Thanks! -Julianna
