 Re: Clarinet teacher that can't play instrument

When I posted about a teacher playing in an advanced lesson, I was posting from personal experience from a lesson with Ricardo to myself. At a very advanced level, it can, and did make a difference.

Of course there are great teachers who can't play anymore for various health reasons, but when the teacher shows the student what can be done, it certainly can help.

A master teacher such as Abe Galper was or Marcellus, etc would still give an amazing lesson playing or not, but I would think that it would be enhanced if they could play when/if needed. It can also be very motivating too.

I don't think that Bob Spring would be teaching a student double tonguing without demonstrating it to them, nor Charlie Neidich either. If Charlie is teaching a new Masters or Doctoral Student his mouth formation (which is different from many!), he is going to demonstrate what he is doing as well as play it so that the student can hear what the sound to aim for is.

That doesn't mean that playing has to occur always, at every lesson, etc, but it can help from time to time to show what can be done

at any level.
