When I played it, the throat was sharper that the rest, but other than that=
, the intonation was fairly even. I'm going to hook her up with a tuner and=
teach her how to use it (she doesn't have one, and for some reason, I have=
two or three of them; probably because I lose things, replace them, then f=
ind what I lost). Next week we will have more time to explore things. =

As for her mouthpiece, as far as I can remember, the word Woodwind was encl=
osed with a design similar to the one you see the word Bundy enclosed with =
on their clarinets. She said she got the mouthpiece from a teacher a long t=
ime (she's an adult getting back into playing after taking a few years off).
