    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!

    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!!!

  • @hirmaisuria

    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.

    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!

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 років тому

      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.

    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.

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.

    Hi I don't play or own a clarinet but I have to learn about it for a composition. Can anybody tell me what kind of clarinet this is? I can hear it's playing a note lower than standard pitch but isn't it too high for a bass?
