Re: Most difficult double

I do not have as much trouble with embouchures between doubles as much as with the huge physical challenge of just getting to and from the instruments.

For Chicago recently, the major instruments for Reed III were bari, bass clarinet, and sop sax (plus tenor and clarinet). I finally settled on the bari on the close right so if I could just lean out for a few notes if I had to but could pull it close for more extended periods.

BC on the left and I always hooked up to the shorter neck strap (the white one) with sop sax close left but a little forward. Tenor and clarinet, back right and the tenor then hooked to the black strap after being lifted over the top.

And then the conductor was at 80 degree to the right and if Reed II leaned forward...

All of this took a little thought and a couple of rehearsals to work out. Maybe I need a CAD program? For Gypsy in the spring, fewer doubles as far as I know.
