mouldy clarinet

Hi. I played clarinet years ago, did AB grade 5 but I was a kid and I ended up hating it and giving up. I've just dug the thing out after not playing for eight? ten years? and it's not looking good, all the metalwork is in poor shape. I don't know what it is, it looks like oxidising copper and is going green and corroded. Is there anything I can do about this? I'd appreciate some advice.

What material is it then? What brand?

Depending on this, an overhaul may or may not be worthwhile.

Well, it doesn't sound like you have any sentimental feelings for "the thing".
Do you desire to restore it.....or what?
