 unwanted vibrato (wobble?) when playing - how to banish it?
Author: Maruja

My teacher (who is excellent) is concerned about the wobbly sound coming out of my clarinet (not always, I hasten to add). She has suggested the following:

- too soft a reed (no, that's not it)
- too little mouthpiece in mouth
- bottom lip trembling (because of nerves - I go with this one)
- gripping the mp (biting?) -
- not feeling clarinet is secure (she has suggested a sling).

Any thoughts?
