Hello,
Am I right in thinking that I am the only non-clarinet playing member who regularly follows this board?
Actually, it is my daughter who plays the clarinet. She is 12, in her fifth year of playing the clarinet, which here (spain) means her 6th year of music, as they spend one year doing "muiscal language" (solfeo?) and fingering around/listening to all the instruments available in their school before deciding upon one. As she was very tiny when she started, she started on the Eb clarinet (LeBlanc noblet) and now plays a Buffet RC (seems to be more popular here than the R13). However, more recently her teacher has been encouraging people to try out the Buffet Vintage after himself buying one. Uses a Vandoren Profile mouthpiece, and V12 reeds but no other changes (like ligature and barrels).
Currently started play the Eb again in the wind music band.
She started official "conservatorie" in September (official secondary school of music), which means attending 6 hours a week of classes APART from those at school; fortunately the conservatory is just across the road (i don't know how people who live furthur away manage).
She really enjoys the clarinet, and now is compulsarily (new word!!) learning the piano as a second instrument, which to her surprise, she enjoys very much.
This board has been most useful to her and myself as a source of all sorts of information, both clarinet and otherwise, so thanks to everyone and GBK.
P.S. I myself am a geographer, language teacher, translator, (all free-lance) according to whatever is on hand. This after giving up a full-tme job in order to spend more time with my children (time will tell if it was worth it , for the moment it seems certainly to be so)
