Oh, so you are referring to third space (on the staff) "C?"



The bridge key could also be out of adjustment as well. The pad above your right index finger needs to close securely to get all the notes below that point (the lowest notes of the horn speak easier and may speak even when that pad is not closing quite right), AND you need to be able to play the "Bb" that sits above the first ledger line above the staff using just the first fingers of both hands (the one-and-one "Bb"). So what you say is the problem when you don't have the clarinet lined up right is that the pad between the first and second fingers of the left hand comes down completely BEFORE the pad above the right first finger completely seals. The reverse is more common, where you try to use the one-and-one "Bb" but that note won't speak because the pad in between the left hand fingers remains slightly open.


Chances are that there is still some "adjusting" needed even when you bridge mechanism is lined up perfectly. If you are not able to make adjustments to the keys, you should have a repair tech tweak that for you.


Of course you did mention that you were able to play more notes (up to "G" and "A") with the cane reeds opposed to Legere. What type of reed you use should not affect this scenario.
