Hi to All,
I am about three weeks into Clarinet ( Yamaha Ycl255 ) and six months into Soprano sax, long story why the two.
My question is with the Clarinet. I have found the low register chela.... so easy ( sound wise according to the chromatic meter ), the clarion on the other hand up to C6 was a challenge.
I could not get D5 at all so started backwards from C6, now this region is far more consistent.
BUT for the love of me I just can not get B5 or C5 even if I try and slur. On the odd occasion I have just flaked the notes.
At 70 I appreciate things are a little slower and I am very new to the clarinet, but is it unusual not to able to achieve these two notes.
Any advice would be most welcomed to correct the situation.
Regards
John
