Reed Recommendation for a Non-Clarinet

Author: bthorpyuma

Hello all,

I've been skimming through some of your conversations and come to the conclusion that most of you are conversing about concepts that I, as a drummer, just don't quite have an appreciation for. I do however have to make some decisions that will have a significant impact on many of my young students. So, I come in peace and ask for some assistance from you.

What reeds do you recommend that I stock for my young clarinet and bass clarinet players. Please keep the following in mind:

... will generally have between 2 and 8 year of playing experience.
... will be involved in performing concert literature and marching literature
... may be involved in a "big band" style ensemble

Some students will have limited finances, so is it better to have higher quality reeds and have to use longer than may be acceptable, or to have ample supply of a slightly lower quality reed?

One last question ... what's the best way for me to store the reeds, since some boxes may not be opened for as long as 24 months in a worst case scenario?

Thank you for your time, I appreciate the help.
