This video is so helpful! I'm 12 and in my school symphonic band and have been struggling to get the high notes, but when I tried out the tips from this video I was finally able to play some of the notes! Thank you so much for the amazing tips!
Hi Cally 😊 I’m a clarinet/sax player of many, many years and I just bought a bass clarinet. It’s driving me crazy - I can’t get notes out of the upper register! The clarinet is from 1970 so it’s old but it has been just serviced. Is it really this hard to get used to the higher register? I’ll try what you’re suggesting, hope to see more in your videos!
I’d like to start playing clarinet, but I don’t have one 🫤 i’m undecided between selmer or buffet , also, not sure if I should learn on Bb or Bass clarinet.
Beware the "came with the horn" mouthpiece (including Yamaha). It is the biggest obstacle to developing the upper clarion and the altissimo. My low C bass clarinet cost me AUD$2200; my Vandoren B46 mouthpiece cost me AUD$400. and on that combination I can easily and reliably reach an upper altissimo 2nd F (a G with the wind behind me, after saying a few prayers).

I think that's a personal decision and also depends on your budget :-)
I’m having the same problem, have you been able to fix it?
Thank you so much!!

Well said! Mouthpiece can make such a big difference.
If this doesn't work I'm quitting every dream I will ever have
My dreams are crushed
