Re: Soundless practice?

sfalexi,

There is much you can do to not waste time.

Finger practice.

"Play" the clarinet using just your fingers, not using air to make a sound; you can practice your scales, technical pieces, repertoire, everything.

You can practice this way with either the mouthpiece in your mouth or just holding the horn -- (I prefer the mouthpiece in the mouth method for good hand position, but this is not always possible or safe, such as in a moving car or plane.)

Best of luck,
shhhhhhh
