 Re: My clarinet sounds like a Kazoo

I just tried again and it turns out that I can stand up like a singer and hold the clarinet close-ish in front of me.

The key seems to be supporting the weight of the clarinet well with my hands and the rubber band embouchure. Then it doesn't squash my lower lip, and I can get the whole instrument to vibrate at all registers. Then the sound is really resonant.

It's even better if I hold the instrument out in front, but that is quite hard work, as it is very heavy.

For bonus points, standing straight up makes me look less zonked. :-)
