Re: Middle ager wanting to pick clarinet back up!

Hello, yes I remember how hard it was for me to start practicing the clarinet when I got serious about it in middle age.. The jaw ache goes away. My goal at first was only 15 minutes per day, and then I worked up from that. I thought I would never get anywhere. I used a Rico #2 Reed as it was softer and now I am up to a Rico 2.5, some years later. I had the clarinet but hadn't used it much. Purchased in 1972, a beautiful horn. Anyhow I guess lessons could not hurt! Good luck to you!
