Thanks. As for finding the best teacher, there’s only one in my area, that I can find. It is definitely a good idea to have him test my clarinet, especially because it’s not a high end one.

Ken, you piqued my curiosity about learning the acoustics of it. It’ll be fun studying how it actually works, and knowing how it works might make it easier to get the hang of playing it.

I plan to at least play with it a little every day. The part I think will be hardest for me will be the breathing. I’ve never smoked, yet my lungs aren’t very good. I can’t even hold my breath for more than 15 seconds. I have to practice that.

I was wondering about reading from the music. Until last night I knew nothing about sheet music. I still know very little but have figured out that I will need to look for the sheets for songs I want to play. I’m hoping that as I get to know my notes, I’ll be able to play along with any of the simpler songs by ear. Even if I miss or mess a note here and there, a clarinet will sound better than my voice. :D
