I've recently taken on Eb clarinet as a way to challenge myself. I cannot believe how different it is to soprano clarinet, bass, and contrabass. My experiences using the soprano as a baseline for comparison have been LOWER, more fingerspacing, more weight, more air, less firm embouchure.
Going higher is a lot harder.
So, I can handle most of the registers. But the altissimo beyond D# has me bungled! I need tips from real Eb clarinetists! Also, the intonation.... *excuse me, I need to go vomit* However, I feel like having perfect pitch makes it a bit easier to tell when I'm out of tune.
