The Clarinet BBoard

tuning frustrations despite new mouthpieces.....

Author: metalheadsimon  Date:   2010-06-30 14:42 I own a Buffet R13 and an A equivalent, which i was using a vandoran m30 mouthpiece to provide a good solid tone that i became adapted to. However my teacher reccomended i bought a ridenour hw model to adjust the tuning as i am constantly sharp. Due to this been tuned to a different frequency this should counteract the sharpness provided by buffet clarinets (due to where they are made) when tested against my tuner, the new mouthpiece showed a deffinate improvement tuning wise, however when playing with pianos that are tuned regularly i appear to still have to pull my barrell bell and middle section of the clarinet to somewhat a similar position to when i used the m30...... any advice on what aspect of my playing could be affecting the tuning and what i can do about it? thank you very much
