- How to make a sound on your Clarinet. For new students and parents to help their children learning. Useful for new teachers and experienced teachers looking for web resources for their students. An earlier video on Assembling your Clarinet will help you get started.
I was frustrated because I could not get a good sound out of my clarinet. After this tutorial, I can now get a good sound and play "Cardiff by the Sea" in my clarinet book. Thank you for this tutorial. It is excellent. I am 10 years old.
I've been playing clarinet for 7 years and i still learned a lot... fantastic video
I was the worst person in my section until right now! Thanks to you, I can now make an "open G"!!!
Found a clarinet at Salvation army. Watched some videos on how to replace the cork, found this and I'm playing! I've never had a lesson, never held on before. So fun.
This guy is great! Perfect first lesson for beginners! He is like the Rick Steves of Clarinet lessons! Thank you!
Thanks for this video! I play the flute and the recorder, and I decided to try the clarinet now. I thought it would be similar! Wrong! A lot harder! My respect for clarinet players has deepened.
I was told to start on a 2-and-a-half reed when I was 11, and my teacher was legendary in my area. But other than that, I think this video is extremely helpful and accurate.
Thank you very much for very clear and accurate tutorial. I just bought a clarinet and with your instructions I was getting a decent sound out of the instrument literally in minutes.
What a great video. Thanks for taking the time, you're clearly a talented and patient teacher.
Started clarinet a month ago, biggest challenge was finding decent reeds & the right strength. Rico reeds were honestly so random I gave up, after lots of experimentation I ended up with Vandoren 1.5 strength. I have a couple of 2's but really wouldn't recommend starting on anything higher than 1.5!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUUU !! Great video!! Like the viewer below I too played the flute and recorder and thought it would be a "piece of cake" playing the clarinet...harder..but still in love with it! Thank you again and, pleeaaase, keep up with the videos! Rose ( from Brazil)
Wow! Thank you soooooo much!!!! 20 minuets ago I was squeaking like a bird was getting ran over!!!!! Now I am making a clarinet sound! Thank you sooooooooooooooo much Philip!!!!!! I also didn't know how to clean my clarinet but watched your other video and all the spit came out!!!!!!!!!! Thanks sooooo much again!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
i have been watching a TON of clarinet videos, and yours is by far the best Philip!!! thanks
Great instruction Phil. Much more information than I got from the "professional" at the music store where I bought my clarinet after waiting half an hour just to speak to her.
Thanks so much for this! Really conversational, easy pace and lots of tips.
i cant even make a sound on my clarinet it is so hard
Thank you very much indeed! I just played my first tune; eight bars long and many of the sounds resembled actual notes :D
At first when I tried out the Clarinet I had the ligatures in the wrong place, And the mouth piece was backwards. LOL!
But now after about a month of practicing real hard I was really more advanced then the people in my band class.
Thank you so very much this helped tremendously!!
Thank you! I've been trying to make a sound for quite a while now without squeaking --watched a few videos, no breakthrough until you said the tip to say "mmm". Great tip!
Thanks a lot.... amazing instruction for a total beginner... my daughter is learning and I will have her see this video for sure...
Great video, I don't play clarinet but it certainly helped as a beginner with my sax embouchure, more so than most sax related videos.
Thanks you Phillip. My daughter loved your lessons.
Thank you so much
I had been trying for hours but I wasn't able to do it until I watched this video. Thank you so much
It's probably better to start on a lower reed size to build up your muscles. A harder read will give you a more characteristic tone only if your muscles are strong enough for it.
Great explanations and very helpful for my son as a first time clarinetist!
Helped me and i think that my teacher will be proud of me for knowing how to assemble and play before anyone else i thank you alot!
Mine dosent even make a sound pls help all I hear is air blowing out
Thank you so much I am just starting clarinet and your video helped me so much thanks
This definatly needs more views :D I learned sooo much!
I love your video! I haven't even received my clarinet yet and I've learned so much.
This guy gets the message across in plain English.
this helped me so much thank you philip!! i owe you so much!!!
thank you sooooooo much. im going in a school band and my clarinet was sounding like a dying bird but now i am good to go!!!!!!!!! thx
Thanks so much I learned a bunch! I'm just starting band and this advice was very helpful
There's a hardest scale 1-5, 5 being the hardest, 1 being the softest.
I had my first band concert on the fifteenth of December!! In 2011... it was last night
Thank you! I recommend two easy little peaces for clarinet: "Clarinet-Dreams" and "Your Eyes Are So Blue", perfomed by Ok-Dreamband (iTunes) on CD "Clarinet-Dreams".
I worked for 7 months to learn my clarinet and then on the 7th month I did a solo at six flags great adventure
And.. i finally made a sound... time to tell my band teacher!!!
Thank you so much for this video it helped so much for my band class
I don't think children should start with a 1. It's too easy. Most people use around a 2 or 2 1/2. Intermediate players may use a 3 like I do. It is supposedly harder to blow but it gets great sounds and if you're tough on your reed then 2 1/2 or 3 is perfect. Still I think this is an amazing video. I show everyone this video who wants to learn. Thank you.
***** Same, don't listen to them, they don't know anything.
i just want to hear the sound😭
All I need is: Correct reed placement; detailed emboucher description; finger placement including half-step notes;
If I play saxophone will that make it easier to play the clarinet?
thank you! thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
thanks but i thought it would help nalot but i already figured some out by myself! keep makin vids!
What's the highest number a reed can go to for clarinet?
that was all i needed my clarinet was squeaking too:)
Really helpful and explanation is wonderful now I can really play.
How do you blow in the clarinet with such ease? My teacher says "Not to puff your cheeks, due to the muscles expanding," so how do l blow in the clarinet without puffing my cheeks? l also have a hard time adjusting with a tight embouchure.
Excellent video
Awesome I'm a clarinet player to!!! I'm learning how to master when I was your man in clarinet it's kind of hard
i know how to play the clarinet and i have been told i have a beutiful tone but i was wondering how could i make it better.
Seems like a good explantation, but why do turn your head up/back when you breatch in? (eg: at 9:00)?
Thanks, got it!
@dazzlefloppy205 where does he teach you how to clean it?
very good vid, thanks!
Thank you for instructions........many greetings from OK-Dreamband. CD "Clarinet-Dreams" is available for download (iTunes, amazon).
Any store that sells concert instruments. The store available to you depends on the city you live in. Search for Yamaha stores. The are a very big music brand and you should have one decently close to you.
I don't feel that my reed vibrates anymore
Thanks squidward
I don't get it I just got my clarinet today on a Friday 12 December a week before Christmas
Thank you!
thank you kind sir
Hi I have a clarinet and every time I try to play notes I get the same sound I dont know why though can you do a video on that
THANK U THANK U THANK U THANK U
Nice....I recommend five lovely tracks for beginners - easy to play: "Clarinet-Dreams" performed by OK-Dreamband (iTunes, emusic, amazon). I have downloaded.
@MyHaloman123 Same here but it still made the same sounds. I am running out of breath after two notes....
awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you so much! i am probably not going to break any more windowpanes!
Now I'm staying in band! I thank you.
Your suppose to be putting your bottom lip curved over your bottom teeth to you don't brake the reed my music teacher told me that for a fact to put the bottom lip over the bottom teeth then put the top lip over the bottom lip and that's how you place your mouth on the mouth piece of the clarinet the for reading my comment if you have any questions just tell me thank you
Can Someone Tell Me Where I Can Buy The Mouth Piece For My Clarinet? Please?And Thank You Because Am 10 Years Old And I Have No Idea Where To Buy It! :(
Thank you so much. Many greetings from OK-Dreamband. CD "Clarinet-Dreams" is available for download (iTunes, amazon).
How do I get that sound so nice. I just got my clarinet and have a 21/2 reed. I am 41 and have not played in years and when I play low notes on the upper register or open g I get air sound I don't get that tunnel sound. Sound lime other is a led in my clarinet. This only happens on the lower notes. Help!
if you don't want the airy sound, (which it shouldn't sound like) you have to tighten your embouchure and make sure it is firm. you can tighten your embouchure by pulling your cheeks back, I guess you could say. It may be uncomfortable at first especially since you are older but you will get used to it.
very helpful
awesome. THANKS
thank u very much i finally learned
A natural horn angle is not always correct...Some people naturally hold their clarinet out more.
Thanks man, my reed was to low and you show me the same height as the top of the mouth piece
cant believe u had tht much time 2 right tht :)
Good instruction.
Thank u
If that didn't help you..maybe you aren't paying attention to what he is saying. Except for one thing everything he is saying is crucial points of playing the clarinet.
This is useful, thanks a lot for this, but you should know the difference between 'to and 'too.'
@mavl91 likeshadow was telling, the reason you hear airflow is probably because you need to push a bit harder with you under lip / or upper teeth, its the way you look at it. XD
Got mine yesterday I'm nine and on doing it by my self stills won't make a little sound
:(
Your suppose to put the lip in all the way well half way you can't just let it be loose or it won't make any sounds k
Yeah well miss Arthur told me that
wow thanks all i got when trying to play clarinet was a blow sounds
Great Sound)
I wish I had this before
My teacher says the sound has to be low and 'powerful'.. But, in this video it's fairly high.. What the hell do I do?! D;
Thank so much
THANK YOU TAUGHT HOW TO BLOW AIR!!!LOL JK I ALREADY KNOW HOW TO PLAY BUT GOOD TUT!
