Subj: [kl] getting rid of unwanted partials in contra
Date: Mon, 28 Dec 1998 23:47:08 -0500

hi,
I got a question regarding the Contra-alto clarinet/contrabass

How do you get rid of those unwanted Partials that is generated with certain
notes.( or is that what you call it?) for example, when I play the chalameau
C#, I notice that there is an G#(throat) in the background. could it be due
to the vibration and inherent property of the instrument?
is there a way to minimise it such that a "purer" note can be obtained?

thanx
Sean :)
