RE: not good enough.

I'm a freshman majoring in clarinet performance, and i feel kind of the same way. Sometimes i feel embarased to work on music in practice rooms when it is busy because i think everyone will hear my misakes. My teacher is always correcting my fingerings and i am am just starting to work on the rose 32. I think it will get better (i hope). As far as squeeking goes, i have this bad habbit of backing away, as my teacher calls it. He tells me to play very loud, but not overblow, when i am doing my scales. This actually helps. If i start to fell embarassed i just think to myself "who cares". I dont know if anyone would recomend doing that, but it seems to help for me. I dont know how my comment could help you, but i felt i should say it anyway.
