Re: Question: Is the clarinet an easy instrument to play?

I only chose to do all my grades on clarinet as the syllabus repertoire was specific for it instead of mostly rehashed Baroque flute sonatas and other transcriptions of piano pieces which was the sax syllabus back in the day.

Plus it's a useful instrument for doubling as a sax player and also gives me a chance of doing orchestral playing from time to time.

There are some aspects of it that are 'easy', but with any instrument it does take dedication and determination to become competent. It could be classed as one of the easier instruments, but it's not all that straightforward.
