RIGHT?!? Everything I love about his playing can be heard in the first like 30 seconds of this video: th-cam.com/video/mVor0DwSwAY/w-d-xo.html I attended this concert back in college and it left quite an impression ❤️
this helped me soo muchhh thankyou! i would always tighten up and my sound would sound forced/tight but this tip helped me relax and now i play with ease
I don't know how I found this, but I'm glad I did. I am also a clarinet playing cat mom! More importantly, I have been playing with a lot of tension...everywhere. My professor sometimes says I have a death grip on the clarinet. I know I have jaw/throat tension as well. I wonder if this is why my neck puffs out when I play? Thanks for this video.
Hello Cally, you recommend these exercises to all levels? from young students up to professionals? Because sometimes, even professionals may have some embouchure problems as well... you may have noticed...
I would recommend to anyone of any level who doesn’t already know or use these tips to try them out and see if they help get the sound they want. Fundamentals are always a work in progress, even for the best of the best!
My Clarinet professor and I were working on Kröpsch Etude No. 6 and she noticed that I had muscles moving in the area underneath my tongue as I was seitching between Clarion G and C. This has also been brought up in a previous lesson with her, and I've tried to play between these notes without moving those muscles, but doing so either brings me to Altissimo E or is makes my C flat. And I can't seem to override it with diaphragm support and air. I did have a moment where it worked, but I don't know if I shaped my throat to where it could cover up the movement, rather than eliminating it. I 'm curious if this playing without moving those jaw muscles directly under my tongue just needs time to develop or if this is something that is unrealistic. Thanks.
Larry Combs-the best.

Keep working at it! If things aren't moving and it sounds good, I wouldn't overthink it :-)
