Hey guys, I'm new here, still don't know how things work seems like a nice place though. A little background info about myself. I'm 17, born in greece moved here when I was 5, started playing drums, guitar and tuba 2 and a half years ago, then June 20th I went and got a clarinet, I had some complications and couldn't really get started but now that I've been playing for a couple of week straight I'm really loving it. I'm learning out of a book, and I know alot about theory so I can teach myself a good amount. I play an albert system buffet clarinet I think key of Eb or E. Can you guys just tell me some bad habits to avoid, good habits to fall in to. The couple that I know are to use alot of air, support with your diaphram, point your chin, and keep your corners tight. Anything else, tips and tricks, scales I should learn(for playing greek music, I'm going to go to this guy when I get a little better but I want to get ahead to make the lesson better when I go), anything really to make me better and things to pratice(exept for maj/min scales, thirds etc, I'm talking tone/sound, not so much technique)
