Re: Clarinet Care (Polishing Silver Keys)

Author: bethmhil  Date:   2012-09-18 00:46 I'm glad to see that you are overreacting, rather than underreacting! For any new clarinet, the most important thing you can do is keep it stable. This can be done by keeping a humidifier in the case, getting an insulated case cover, and never storing the horn in places with temperatures below 55 degrees or above 75 degrees. Understand that wooden instruments do not crack from high or low humidity or temperatures-- it's the drastic, sudden changes in climate/temperature that put the instrument at risk. For the keys, just polish them with a microfiber polishing cloth maybe once a week. I use the one that came with my Tosca, but I believe Vandoren makes one that is identical.
