 Re: Left Hand Pinkie Problems
Author: Tony F

I am working with a friend to resolve this problem. Her left pinky is severely arthritic and operates more like a switch than a normal finger. It really only has 2 positions, up or down. She also has very small hands, which compounds the problem. The arthritis limits her reach and she has problems with the l/h pinky cluster. I'm waiting on delivery of an order of Sugru modelling material, and I plan to work with her to establish a key shape which works for her. Once we've got it right I'll modify the keys on her clarinet to give a more permanent fix.
