 Re: Band Director teaching open G w/RH down

This discussion reminds me of a story told to me several years ago by a friend who isn't a clarinet player.

The friend was a college music ed. major at the time, and was taking class clarinet. The instructor was a graduate student and a performance major, a likable person who later went on to teach clarinet at the college level.

Although his students liked him, the instructor was mainly interested in performing and teaching advanced students. Teaching basic fingerings and techniques to a class of non-clarinet players wasn't something that thrilled him.

Sometimes, the regular clarinet professor would visit the class. On at least one occasion, the instructor started teaching his beginners about resonance fingerings. The experienced professor interrupted and nicely pointed out that these fingerings could and should wait until later.
