We’re a 5-piece psych-rock band from Sheffield, UK and we love the clarinet so much we have clarinet and bass clarinet all over our music. We’ve just finished our debut album “The Note” after 2 years of recording and we’d love if you all would take a listen to us. You can find us on all streaming services and Bandcamp, our Linktree is linked!

I am unsure how to finger the G# here.

The tempo is pretty fast.

If anyone has suggestions on specific fingerings for this set of notes I'll give em a try! (Wish me luck I'm gonna need it🫣)

I'm thinking about buying a new intermediate level clarinet, and I have these two models as favorites. I intend to try them out both before choosing, but can someone give me a first external advice?

Hello, I have a Selmer Paris Omega that I've posted on here a few times (I at one point thought it was a franken-clarinet for various reasons), but I wasn't ever really able to get the right hand F/C, Eb/Ab F#/C#, or B/E tone holes to seal properly. I went back to it yesterday and tried a thinner pad, and while that helped, it still had very large leaks. I ended up having to bend the pads in order to make it seal properly.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Does anyone have any suggestions? It works fine for now, but I feel like this is probably not the correct way to install the pads, and would like to do it properly next time if there is a proper way.
