Today a ten years old guy came to me: he wants to learn the clarinet, and
his mother, who was with him, said she and her husband were willing to pay a
new instrument for him. When I looked at the boy's teeth I got a shock:: he
has horse's teeth (is that correct? I think it is but am not very sure. the
teeth in the top jaw are standing very frontward), and also there is a large
slit between the two middle teeth of that very top jaw.

Should I advice the boy to play a brass instrument, or advice him and his
parents, to buy any clarinet, but have the mp adapted to him, or what? Can
anyone on this list give me some kind of advice? TIA
