 Break-in and Pitch
Author: Slowoldman

My old R13 (from 1968) was consistently sharp. My new instrument (also Buffet) is playing slightly flat. I've been playing the new one for about 5 weeks, progressively increasing the playing time (currently 45 minutes a day).

Does the pitch/tuning usually change as a clarinet "breaks in"? If I can expect change, I don't want to start messing with barrels and mouthpieces right away, of course.

Thanks for any info on this.
