I am a Grade 5 student on Bb clarinet. I have recently been playing Study No 50 by Stark, and I am finding that when I am required to go from middle Bb to middle E then to top E (the next one up I mean!) my left thumb pad seems to get caught between the ring of the thumb hole and the underside edge of the register key... does anyone else have this problem and how can I solve it please? My teacher has adjusted the register key a bit which helped a little bit but it still happens.
