 Selmer Privilege Bass Clarinet
Author: thehammerclarinet

Hello all,

The title of this post may or may not have been to grab your attention :) .

I am a high school player and I have recently been assigned bass clarinet in my youth orchestra. The clarinet is obviously a very high-end instrument, Selmer Low C Privilege.

For only playing bass for about a week now, I think I am making decent progress. I haven't had a lesson on bass clarinet yet, but I have some minor concerns. Whenever I play anything from [B4] to [D5] the notes sound very stuffy and covered. Or in other words, it feels very awkward when playing them. I assume this is most likely a ME problem and not an instrument problem.

Any opinions or advice would be helpful. Thanks.
