<< For the left-handed people, isn't clarinet heavy? As a beginner (I am
right-handed) , I feel that the instrument is relatively heavier than I
imagined. >>

-----It starts off heavy for many people, right of left-handed, because
people underestimate the weight of the horn. If a horn starts off heavy, I
recommend buying a clarinet strap until you are used to the weight.
