As I've read Karl say in the past, and laughed at in similar conclusion, I often find a thumb (while trying a reed) to be the ultimate ligature, much that I does tie up a hand and effect my clarinet play.
quote..

maybe we should think about hiring someone like a golf buddy, but then a clarinet buddy that holds our reeds firm while we play..
or would that turn out to be something like our father in law pushing against that open door while you try to turn in a vice from the other side..
we all know that he can put in all the power he has, but he still won't be as half as good as you doing it yourself with that completely tired left hand that wouldn't be able to push a marble...

Anyway I agree, a simple thumb is a great ligature.. darn why can't we just have three of them..

kind greats
