I watched about 11 videos and found nothing helpful. BUT, this video helped me SO MUCH! I cried tears of joy after I made a nice sound on my mouth piece after blowing through it and nothing coming out but the sound of air. You helped me so much. Thank you

So helpful! Pencilling a faint line on the reed to show where to place the lower lip worked well for me. Thanks!

Well, your video is nice and all but, it's no use for me. I watched a dozen of videos, tried every positions on the mouth piece, blew soft, blew hard. Sometime I get some kind of sharp quacky sound. I don't know what I don't get here.

Go to the clarinet bboard (google it) and post a question about it. Include a link to a video of you demonstrating. They'll get it worked out.

I find it so sad that I had to find a video because I use to be able to play the clarinet so well before I switched to another instrument 😭
