Re: Say I messed up breaking in a clarinet

I totally agee that the breaking in of a clarinet is way over stressed. I'm not suggesting you take it out of the case on day one and play it in practice, rehearsal and performance on day one but I believe after a few days to a week of moderate playing it's good to go. It's more important to swab, keep it from going from one extreme temperture to another to quickly and just using common sense. I've owned three Bb, two A two Eb and three bass clarinets in my school and professional career and NEVER had a single crack in my 51 plus professional career. Common sense is all you need, and a little bit of luck.
