Yes, Tony; thank you. But what's interesting is that I've studied with a private teacher for several years now whose tone and phrasing were not often to my personal liking. I even questioned her playing advice at times. As I've grown musically, though, I've come to realize that nearly everything she's told me is correct, or at least, it works. And what's more interesting, without even modifying my basic concept of tone or my preferred phrasing style, I have come to realize that my teacher is really a very very good player. I now enjoy her tone very much (maybe it's her different mpc... you never know) and I have just generally learned to appreciate her more and more.
Between private lessons, practicing, and my own diligent study in books/online/etc., I feel like I have been relatively very successful in my high school stage of studying clarinet..........well, I have one 'final project' for this stage: the High School ICA Competition. But anyway, I think the above three aspects of clarinet study each carry significant weight toward success.
Thank you all again!
