Thank you Lelia for the warm welcome :)

In response to your question about strength 1 1/2 reeds, I had the pleasure of talking with a music historian who plays the old clarinets in a period orchestra.

For those instruments, specifically the chalumeau, softer reeds were essential for the clarinet to speak. I think she was using a vandoren black master 1 1/2 for the demonstration.

As for 1 1/2 on modern clarinets I can't think of ever finding an example of someone using that. Maybe a beginner's first time playing into a clarinet but I think it's perfectly reasonable to have a inexpierenced player on a strength 3 reed.
