Re: Trouble explaining clarinet tuning to non clarinet musician

Just say that each note has it's own tuning, and that tuning is also affected by other factors like mouth pressure and the reed.

There is no perfect scale, only generally close - then it's the musician who has to listen and adjust.

Kinda like a car that doesn't steer itself. The road curves and you best curve with it.
