Re: Problems with bass clarinet

A common problem. Playing bass in the clarinet register is a good deal more tricky than in the clarinet. You have to get used to the feel of the notes. If anything a softer reed helps. But I would not suggest a Rico. Vandoren are easy in the upper register (disappointing lower register to my mind). I have also found that tenor sax reeds work well in the upper register, but can also be underwhelming in the lower register.
