Thanks for your post.

I'm not sure what you mean by "It's called technique. Da!"

Do you mean Da as in the Russian word for "Yes!"

Do you mean Da as in a sound often prescribed by clarinet instructors for
certain toungings.

Perhaps you mean, 'Da' as in the sound an infant makes early in it's
development. If so, I'm even more confused as to your meaning, Mr. Mark!

By technique do you mean the clarinetists technique? Or do you mean the
technique that was used by the maker of the clarinet for cutting the tone
holes which could lead to the sluggishness in response? Or perhaps the
technique I employ when cleaning or maintaining my clarinet?

I'm sure you meant to be very helpful with you friendly and informative post
of "It's called technique. Da!" but I'm afraid I'm left with a number of
puzzling questions.

Truly,
Don
