 Re: The most appropriate Clarinet temperature & humudity

I don't think these specs have been established empirically or scientifically, but anyway....

As I've written many times before here, the critical matter is not the temperature or humidity (WITHIN REASON) at a given point, but what happens when abruptly subjecting an instrument to a temperature and-or humidity that is radically different. This stresses in the wood, which cause cracks. (Any accomplished woodworker or furniture restorer knows what "shocking" wood like that will do.)

In other words, by trying to keep your instrument at a particular temperature and-or humidity, you may be risking more than you would by just being careful to avoid extreme changes.

(Sure would like to have a couple of clarinet makers and accomplished wood workers chime in on this.)
