Hi,
I'm a music student at my high school and I've taken clarinet in grade 9 and grade 10 music....so we've basically done books 1 and 2 and partly 3....from this I assume I'm in grade 3 clarinet?
Now, next year, I will be joining senior band, so I will have to have plenty of practice. Of course, I will have to tune up my clarinet skills this upcoming summer. I am planning to buy a clarinet, since the rental clarinets have given me a hard time (repairs and pad problems, cork problems, and a whole lot).
Please note that we constantly play repertoire pieces in our class, and I am playing 1st clarinet. I can also reach the high high notes (e.g. the high C [with ledger lines]).....just letting you know to help me with my buying decision.
Now, I've researched at the music stores in the area that I live in and I was wondering if you would be able to help me decide on a good one, since I really love the clarinet and will be willing to play the clarinet on my own personal time later in my life, such as university, etc.
Buffet BC2540 <---- I am assuming the B12 clarinet
Armstrong 4001
Selmer CL301
Vito 7212
Amati ACL201II
Jupiter JUP631NMT
Selmer 1400B
Vito 7212PC
Nobel 14041
Yamaha YCL250
Selmer CL601
Also, I have heard about mouthpieces. Like should I buy the set and replace the mouthpiece? Do mouthpieces really influence the sound quality that the clarinet produces? Will I have to change reed strengths if I change the mouthpiece?
Thanks for your help,
Daniel
