Fred, this doesn't leave much room for development for persons who elect not
to have a clarinet instructor. In general, it's always best to have a
teacher. However, for some, the cost is a problem. Of course, embouchure
problems *can't* be solved by someone else, long distance or up close. Still,
I for one hope all sorts and all manner of playing challenges/problems are
solvable on one's own. A group like this one does help 200% as well! Best
wishes,
