Re: Pretty confused about Ridenour Clarinets

You'll be really annoyed if you just do what your teacher says, and eventually realise he/she just a person with a set of skills you're looking to develop yourself. Just make sure you're not acquiring their biases along with those skills. It's difficult, because we all naturally would like to love our teachers.

Luckily for me, I DO love my teacher, and what she says about "playing" the clarinet, I know now to shut up and listen. About equipment, she has her experience, which is valuable to hear, but it's NOT definitive. I make my own decisions.

Worth quoting Wisco99 again.
Life is too short to play on something that does not make you happy.

You spend an hour a week maybe with your teacher - you'll be spending way more time with your clarinet - put the effort into finding the right one FOR YOU.

There are teachers, and there are players who teach: not the same thing.
