 Re: A clarinet harder to play than Bb

We're dealing with an awful lot of variables here. Unless two clarinets of different sizes were manufactured as a set at about the same time, it's difficult to come up with an objective comparison test. I can make any of my clarinets difficult to play or make them sound inferior by setting them up with mouthpieces or reeds that don't work well on those particular instruments or don't work well with my embouchure. The B45 mouthpieces I prefer on my Buffet R13s from the 1970s are all wrong for me on my Buffets from the 1930s, for instance -- and the two Buffets from the 1930s play alike because I messed around with vintage mouthpieces and various reeds until I hit on the right combinations.
