From: AnneVacca@-----.com Subj: Re: [kl] Clarinet Cleaning Swabs Date: Thu, 11 Mar 1999 21:20:44 -0500
Dear listers,
I've been having a problem with my beginning clarinetists. It has to do
with cleaning the clarinet after use, I have had bad experiences with the
swabs that come with rental clarinets getting stuck. Are there any better
ways of cleaning the clarinet than the swabs?
Thanks in advance.

The best thing that I can suggest is to replace the swabs that come with the
clarinets with a handkerchief swab. These work much better and if the student
makes sure that the swab isn't bunched up when they pull it through, it
shouldn't get stuck. I also have the students put the swab in the bell end
and pull through the barrel.
Hope this helps-
Anne Vacca
