 Re: Clarinet and Saxophone - good or bad marriage?
Author: GeorgeL ★2017

I had 7 years of sax lessons before getting 2 years of clarinet lessons, and that was over 50 years ago, so I am not about to tell anyone how to learn to play an instrument.

How does the fact that Funfly has "been learning the clarinet for about a year" factor into the answer for his question? If he is not yet comfortable going over the Bb-A break, once he starts playing sax (which does not have that problem) he may never touch the clarinet again.

And a question for Funfly: If you are taking clarinet lessons, what does your teacher say about you learning sax at this stage of your development?
