@tylerleecutts: Thanks! Eye contact is definitely something we're going to look at (punintended) at our next rehearsal.

I play a Clark Fobes CWF mouthpiece, Peter Leuthner French Cut Professional #4 reeds, and a VD Optimum with vertical rails. My Bb clarinet is a Pre-R13 (c. 1946) handed down to me by the mother of a family friend, who happened to study with Mitchell Lurie. Just got it restored about a month ago and it actually plays very nicely, despite the negative reputations of older instruments.

You're right that the piano isn't totally in tune, especially on the higher notes, but it's not so out of tune that we can't use it as a reference.
