The Clarinet BBoard

Re: first concert back

Author: Philip Caron  Date:   2008-07-25 17:06 William, thank you. I was using the Bb! (Hey, are you a service technician?) As you say, all the band parts were for that instrument. They used my concert pitch (clarion C!) to tune the band, and a lot of instruments were higher than me - but not a half step. A few were at the same pitch - including the lead trumpet. Once we got playing, it quickly became as though we hadn't tuned at all, and it drifted worse from there. It was confusing, and I may have been compensating, ah, ineffectually. I'd like to think I can detect intonation issues in my own playing - and I do at least some of it, but again, it's time do some work with a tuner.
