Jawad,

To address your desire to play a glissando, someone might mention that that effect is usually easier to produce on a rather open faced mouthpiece than a close faced one like your M13 Vandoren. You get the ascending glissando to come out partly by gradually sliding the fingers off the keys but more by varying the tongue position to "squeeze" the air inside your oral cavity and make the pitch rise. Close faced mouthpieces like the M13 tend to stabilize the pitch rather than vary it in the way jazz performers often prefer. If you can borrow or otherwise find a somewhat more open faced mouthpiece (Vandoren M30 or M40 for example or Reserve X10) and experiment with that for the glissando, you might see (or feel) that that special effect is easier on a more open mouthpiece. Some players, of course, can gliss well on an M13, but even they will usually find the gliss easier to do on a more open tipped model.

Mike Lowenstern in one of his "earspasm" YouTube videos has a good lesson on how to manage the Rhapsody in Blue gliss. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=How+to+play+Gershwin's+Rhapsody+in+Blue+clarinet+solo.
