    I used to play clarinet and sax in the band in high school but that was forty years ago! A friend just gave me a clarinet and I'm surprised I can get a sound out of it. It's all starting to come back to me and with your help I'm excited to play again. Wow! This is great.

      That is so awesome Alick. I have a similar experience. I played in school and my husband just got me a nice Bundy Deluxe. I blew my first sound the other day and today played a simple so. I am full of joy. I can't wait to play like I use to and even better

    I used to play cornet, but lost my front upper teeth so I can't control pitch anymore. So, for my 80th birthday I celebrated by buying a Conn Albert system E-flat clarinet, and a Rubanks Elementary Method by N.W.Hovey as it has a fingering chart for both systems. I have just started, and you have helped me a bunch. 'preciate it!

    Well, as my sixtieth birthday rapidly approaches (and having been through my mid-life crisis in my forties), I decided to do more with my life and "learn a new skill". So, I have picked up the clarinet for the first time.
    I like the way young James takes us simpletons slowly and patiently through these early stages and look forward to following him further as I progress - So far so good!

    Played clarinet in band starting in 6th grade, 1975. Continued through the end of freshman year of high school with marching band and symphonic band. So glad my parents bought me a REAL clarinet, not a plastic one. What a wonderful time in my life with music. So sorry to this day I sold it after I graduated high school. I'd love to have it back now. Learning electric and acoustic guitars with beat pedals and some keyboards now.

    Thanx. It helped me as a parent with a sixyearold that just started taking lessons. He forgot the instructions, and since I wasn't the parent being with him in the lesson, I searched on youtube for someone to show very clearly the first notes. This video helped me so now I can also play the five notes! I love the clarinetsound. It is lovely!!!

    I’ve been playing the clarinet for 2 months now and surprisingly it is not that hard to learn the notes,😊
    just mesmerising the notes is the easiest way together the hang of the notes and you will see yourself playing more consistently.

    Enjoyed your lesson, I wonder if there is any hope for me? I am retired now and never played an instrument - short time in school on violin - dad couldn't stand the noise! I don't want to die with the music still in me! Since I love the clarinet so much I thought I would try to learn it - lots of time now... my first question is what should I look for when buying a used instrument?

    • @janlabij7302
      @janlabij7302 6 лет назад

      They are all over e-bay. I just bought a Conn intermediate level Albert System for $78. When it got here, I was amazed that it plays as well as it does. It is 98 years old! I wanted an Albert System because all of my favorite clarinet players play them. Johnny Dodds, Jimmy Dorsey and almost every New Orleans clarinetist, until lately, played them.

He is presenting a perfect play without any problems on an old German System, which you can discover by a look on his grips during his play. It must be very difficult !!

      @jimdugal  8 лет назад

      Annette Harrison ..Hi Annette...I'm not knowledgeable about the clarinets that are out there...but I would say try to find a store that actually rents instruments as opposed to just selling them...they usually will be more inclined to sell you something they will stand behind....most new clarinets have cork joints that are way too tight making it hard to put together....make sure the vendor will make sure it's easy to assemble ( if it's made with real cork it would have to be manually shaved) ...so I would just ask them to make sure it's easy to assemble....put the instrument together at the store when you purchase...if you're not happy ask them to adjust it more! good luck!

      i will agree with a lot of those statements, especially about the sax having way too many keys, it is a very over-complicated instrument.. biggest issue i have with oboes is a low-end student model is still like $1,000 for one... the clarinet though, it can still play at least two full chromatic octaves?

      because clarinet would be much easier actually oboe because calrinets have high notes wich are hard to change with i would at least go with oboe or flute but oboe would be best :) ive been playing clarinet since 2nd grade and im high school

      Haha and you always should stay 10 feet away from someone who is playing a flute because then you'll get rained on by their spit

      First of all. For a beginning instrument it's almost guaranteed to be blown in a weird way. 2nd of all, then why does my sister, a 2 year flute player still get spit everywhere?

    I new to clarinet (senior recorder player) and just got my first clarinet and I have surprised myself being able to play notes right out of the box. But I have a problem and don’t know if it me or the clarinet when I play a “G” I get a perfect “F” when I play a “F” I get a perfect “E” and so on this goes on through the scale. Plus I can’t get a note at all on the upper register which might be me but I have use a couple of tuning apps and they all show the Clarinet play one note out is it me? Or do I have a problem with the Clarinet? Oh and thanks for the courses they will help a lot.

      The clarinet is in Bb, so each note played on the clarinet sounds a whole step down. A clarinet C is a concert Bb, A clarinet B is a concert A, etc. You are fine.

    I can play the notes, but sadly, my awful memory doesn't remember which note is which. I've resorted to writing down the note names on my sheet music.

    I would like to learn the clarinet but living in a flat makes it difficult because of the noise - is there any efficient mute available ?

    I know how to play the saxophone but I want to know another instrument. I heard that clarinet is the way to go and flute also which is better?
