Re: Sax to Clarinet

Not sure. I don't play a lot of classical stuff. I guess if I had to try to think between sax and clarinet, and ponder on what I've heard of other clarinet/sax doublers at my band, I would say that when you play clarinet classically, it might help to focus more on being "smooth" and "blending". If you have an opportunity, I think playing duets, trios, or other small group stuff would be best for helping you figure out how to blend your clarinet sound. Chamber music works wonders for me as far as focusing on my sound, how I fit in, and exposing all those darned mistakes I make since I can't hide in a section of a wind ensemble.
