I love my C clarinet also. It fits in everywhere.
I,too, have been working on one of the Rose etudes. I
think it's a form of self-punishment, perhaps for
every mistake I ever made in life. Perhaps I am
punishing the neighbors. BUT - I have a question. What
do Klarinters do special to their reeds? Do you
lightly sand, perhaps? Or trim a bit? Soak in vinegar?
Anything?
