The Clarinet BBoard

RE: ready for a really stupid question?

Author: David Pegel  Date:   2002-03-29 01:54 Speaking as one who plays tuba about as much as clarinet, French Horn as well, and started on trumpet (My, I jump around!), I will add my 2¢. I find it easist to produce a sound on instruments with the range of a trombone. Tuba requires a bit of air, while trumpet air has to be VERY focused. French Horn, however, is an entirely different matter because you have the worst of both worlds. You have a small mouthpeice (focused air and more precision) AND a mile of tubing (more resistance), and yet it's not that difficult get a note out of it. It's playing with good tone that's hard!! Take it for what it's worth!!
