I'm a 77yr-old lawyer (listed in Best Lawyers in America) and have played clarinet since 10 years of age. Largely self-taught except for public school bands, I was lucky enough to reach a level which allowed me to start playing professional gigs while still in high school, and have done so ever since--mostly dance bands from big bands to combos, but with numerous shows such as circuses, ice shows, Lipizan Horses, Bob Hope, Red Skelton, Ernie Ford, etc.: originated, underwrote, M.C.'d, played in weekly jazz show for which I received a state Arts Commission award; presented live lectures on history of jazz at severaly colleges and universities in four states; received an award last year from the Community Arts Council as Instrumentalist of the Year; also play sax flute and euphonium, and sing regularly in church choir and community chorus; love many types of music and participate in whatever is available. SO, NOW I'VE FINALLY STARTED TAKING CLARINET LESSONS, about four months ago, and am having great fun trying to unlearn all the bad habits I've learned over the years. This BBis a great source of information for me. Keep it coming. I need all the help I can get.
