Re: Effect of Oral Cavity Size on Sound

I've thought a lot about Leister's sound over the years. I recall one master class where he, being aware of various Boehm fingerings and their effects, had suggested to a student to use the "1 and 1" Bb (note sitting on the first ledger line above the staff) because it has a lovely covered sound.

Lately I have been experimenting with and incorporating different combinations of fingers for "throat notes" that have not only affected the quality of those notes but the overall sound approach of the entire spectrum of notes. So tonal concept is influenced by many factors but controlled by our brain/ear more than anything else.

Again I put forth GOOD NEWS! Anyone can have a wonderful SOUND on clarinet despite gender, size, or age. Now when it comes to hearing pitch properly or developing technique...that's still up to nature and hard work.
