Turn those 16 notes into 32 notes by playing them while pressing that long skinny key behind your left thumb.

Also, do yourself a favor if you haven't already -- get a teacher to show you how to do all this stuff the correct way. Learning the clarinet via the Internet is like learning surgery from a book.

Good luck.g

As a relatively new player your embochure is probably not real strong yet.....
