Hello Klarinettists,
I hope this raches you and the listserv has not fallen over in the
meantime. After months of e-mail diasaters (1000+ in my inbox) exams, (i
failed grade 3, but am taking grade 4 next week) real exams(best marks in
the year for assorted subjects) I decided it was high time that i found
out if I am able to leave an impression on any size group of people for
more than five minutes. Depending on whether my inbox is full of a) 'Oh
wow your back, we missed you so much, your flair and wit are essential to
the musical melange that is klarinet-l' or b) oh no not her again c) who
is the newbie?? or d) eh? I will scrutinise the results carefully.

I sup[pose i ought to actually say something about playing the clarinet
as well. Why do my reeds only last 5 seconds and nearly always sound
pants? Why is the clarinet so hopeless when it comes to getting C#?G#?
why oh why oh why why is the scale of c mnior so STUPID?

So many questions....
Frances
