Re: Sax player wanting to start clarinet

I thiknk Bartmann summed it up very well. I started clarinet two years ago after playing sax and believe me, there is no comparison. The clarinet fingerings are very intricate and sometimes cause your fingers to go in a different direction than it feel that you should. However, I have persevered and am making progress. I would say you have to really want it in order to hang in there, because it doesn't come easy-at least for me. It won't hurt you to buy an inexpensive instrument and try it, but I agree with Bartmann and others that you should get a teacher.
