Cathy,

With your determination and practice schedule, I wouldn't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to enroll in a community college band ensemble. I've seen flute players change to french horn (with no prior experience) and they love it! Also, playing in an ensemble setting will help you with the way you hear the other voices and tune with them.

Just a thought.

P.S. I'm 23 and I'm picking the clarinet up after 2 years of neglect.

P.P.S. Your Yamaha YCL-26II is an excellent student instrument. You may want to ask your instructor about a mouthpiece upgrade. It can have a great effect on your sound, and make the instrument easier to play. (I use a Vandoren M13, but follow your teacher's recommendation.)
