She is currently using Vandoren 2 1/2 reeds. She preferred those over Rico. I keep repositioning her reed, but she grumbles and slides it back down. My daughter gets a good sound out of her instrument and is progressing quickly. Neither he nor that clarinetist that comes to the school once a week to work with the beginners have talked to her about the reed misplacement, and she plays for the band director at least once a week to pass off required passages, so I'm guessing they don't hear anything wrong. Once she gets beyond what I can help her do, I will look into getting her private lessons. For now, I don't want her to get in the habit of positioning the reed incorrectly. If the consensus is that it will just take time and effort rather than a new mouthpiece, then that is what we will work towards.
