For anyone who needs help: I've been playing for four years and I'm the first chair in my high school band. When you have your mouth on the mouthpiece, SMILE with the corners of your mouth! And also try not to put too much or too little mouthpiece in your mouth. Another tip is to not blow out your cheeks and keep your corners of your mouth nice and tight! Don't give up! Everybody is a beginner once! Keep trying and you'll do it :)
at first I was like WHAT THE HECK?! and I was just trying to do it and i got frustrated so I blew hard and it scared me to death, but I did it!
I literally disassembled and reassembled my clarinet three times just to find out I wasn't blowing hard enough 😂
I'm a 40-something complete newcomer to music and the clarinet - and thanks to this great video I've now played my first note. Thanks! I look forward to moving on to your other lessons!
I was like why u no work then i realized my mouthpeice was upside down
How do I breath while I doing clarinet
I don't get it, some days my clarinet plays and then others it won't. I use the same type of blowing and the same pressure and everything but it's like it just stops working help please.
This helped SOOOO much! I have been playing the clarinet since September and I had the wrong embouchure the whole time!
I have a question. I am just starting the clarinet and I am making a noise but it isn't high pitched, it sounds lower. Am I doing it correctly then? Or am I doing it wrong? 😕
First thing to try would be to blow faster air. If it still isn't up to the F#, try taking a LITTLE more mouthpiece in and bite a LITTLE firmer. That should do it.
I play flute in my school band, and I have a clarinet too, so I'm going to play both in band after I learn! Thank you!!
I've been playing the clarinet for 3 years now and this tutorial sorta brough back memories from the first day of band lol
Oh my god! Your my life saver! I forgot my instrument at home and our class was assembling the instruments! I went home and went straight to you! Thanks!!!
Thank you no sound was coming out and the reason was I didn't have much mouth piece in my mouth. I'm definitely gonna get my clarinet tomorrow. I am in 6th grade and have passed all my tests for band, new sub :)
Thanks for making this video everyone in my class knew this besides me cause I had a broken reed for a week.
Thank u so much, I'm learning now, I'm teaching myself the clarinet and I was looking for CZcams accounts for me to subscribe to so I can learn and this account is perfect, u are great at explaining things, I already learned how to do the first 3 notes and I stared yesterday!
Your videos are very good. They would have been a great resource for my beginners back in the 80's and 90's. After being a principal for the last 15 years, I back to teaching and I'm using your videos as resources for my kiddos. Thanks. CP
Yes! I finished assembling my clarinet! Thank you very much!
YOU SAVED MY BAND LIFE THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much I'm just starting band in 6th grade an was confused thanks for lesson 1too

this is very helpful, I have had my clarinet for two days, i only know how to go up the scale and back down. I also can only play for short amounts of time
Thanks for this video! This helps me a lot.
Omg this guy is a miracle worker
Is this normal: It takes an enormous amount of pressure to sound the note. I tried readjusting the reed, applied more moisture to it and still no changes.
I tried the ten count exercise and all I got was a big headache. what am I doing wrong?
I know it has been 5 months but I thought someone else could use the insight as well.
If you are using just the mouthpiece and barrel combination for your first sounds, there are three things I would check first to fix that problem (assuming it is all assembled correctly):
1. Make sure your reed strength is 2.5 or softer. Check the back. If it does not say, but a new reed that does.
2. Possibly too little mouthpiece in your mouth. With too little mouthpiece in, it is easy to pinch the reed closed without realizing it. Try adding a little more mouthpiece.
3. Make sure the tube is clear. Yes, I've had students leave swabs (and things) in their clarinet and forget to take them out.
loosen your grip on the mouthpiece... u r pushing too hard on the reed
I do this and no noise comes out my clarinet at school I’m starting to get worried I’ll never figure it out
OMG! I used to play the clarinet back in school and was good at it. I didn't continue because it was the schools clarinet and had to return it. Now yeeeeaaaaarrrrrsss later, I made the decision to return to it. Yes I have bought my first clarinet. I am very very shocked that I cant a sound out of it (neighbours should be happy for now). I guess I'll have to sit and practice and practice again to get the sound out. My stomach is hurting already....lol
Riversflowin good luck to your neighbors ;3;
You have a nice easy listening voice which helps a lot.
You have earned a subscriber! :D 😀😀☺☺🤗🤗😁👍
Thank you..It has been great help for me to teach my juniours..Continue the good work:)
I'm teaching my cousin and she couldn't get any sound ot and I made her watch this video and it works great video
i held it for 10 counts, thx for the lesson, it really helped me out
Thx for helping
the dude just started 6th grade band and got my clarinet today already know how to make a noise thanks!!!
it wont make any noise and im doing exactly as instructed
Thank you so much your channel is just what I need I just stared 6th grad band and all of vids are helping
same
Big thanks for your help I made my first sound ever and my girlfriend immediately took my reed away hahaha
very helpful
Very helpful thanks
2:04 I sound nothing like that. When I play it sounds almost like something is blocking it :/
is it correct to play high pitched because i cant do it low pitched
Like if you have the whole thing built will it sound more low?
trid so trid triddy yes
thak you!
I tried the challenge and it sounds at least two notes lower than yours (Yes I do ear training) Is it my instrument? (it's metal not plastic) I know with brass, it's your lip position, so I tried tightening my lips more and kind of got the pitch to go higher, but not by much. And yes it is just the mouthpiece, not fully set up.
(lol don't try this when you have a cold, it makes breathing a lot harder :D I can do that challenge, I know I can, but I'm trying to learn clarinet because I'm very behind on my goals. I play the flute already and was given a used clarinet I have fixed up. It sounds amazing! Now to get the musician to sound amazing too... ) Thank you for the lessons! They help a lot!
Thx I finally learned how to use it thank you thank you thank you!!!
you expressed it the best
Amazing can you suggest a beginners book for clarinet.thanks.
This video helped me because I couldn't play the clarinet and I'm in band but I kept practicing and I got it right cuz I use to puff out my cheeks
I play saxophone and i wanted to try something new so this part was really easy
I still can't do it makes that blowing sound that sounds like air
That and it won't vibrate
Thanks for you're help
I CAN'T DO IT I JUST CANT😭
DUDE YES! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you have any whistling tips? u r a gr8 teacher :)
If you were wandering the mouth piece and makes a different sound. This is because if you are beginner you use a less stronger reed than Selfridge. He uses a much stronger reed which makes a more greater tone i think.
Thank you so much you helped me a lot
I'm in 5th grade and I couldn't do a thing I have lessons tomorrow and I thought I would have to say I can't play but I was just about to give up I was just blowing into it and I made a noice this really helped 👍up
Finaly i did it !! Thanks :)
This is a very nice video
u JUST GOT'S A NEW SUBSCRIBER!!
i'm learning to impress my daughter. she just started playing last august. and this is her lasat and final christmas present. #thethingsdadsdofortheirnumber1lady
thank you so much!! this helped me improve by my clarinet! THANK YOU!
just one problem .what can I do when I'm sqeaking on my clarinet. what do i do
+Lily-rose Stoly too much of the mouthpiece is in your mouth. I've been playing for a while and I've decided to give people advice
Yasmin is love Yasmin is life thanks for the advice!! Now I dont sound like squidward from spongebob squarepants lol
OMG sooo helpful!!! :)
i am not able to make sounds even if i do the band face but i need little practice to get this done i started playing the Instrument for a week
hey @MrSelfridge, I just realized I was playing the clarinet with the reed side of the mouthpiece facing up. however I'm finding it easier to play and make sounds with it this way. Do you know if there have been any tests to see if this is in fact an easier way to play the clarinet? have there been any musicians that made this way of playing their thing?
What do u do if I lost my mouthpiece cap😪 idk what to do and I'm afraid I'm gonna get in trouble😭
thanks bro I did it
Thank you so much!!!!! I am gonna get a good grade on homework now! It was so hard on my face :D xD
I DID IT THX
I can't hold in 10 secobd
I'm new and I have had my clarinet for 4 days and I can make the sound but I have to practice my band face. And does anyone get this popping feeling in your jaw when you blow?
i like how i am relay learning
why does mine sound really harsh and not as nice as yours?
I do this but it always squeaks and i don't know what I'm doing wrong and sometimes I just stop and when I try to get air it doesn't work
__ __ To much mouth piece possibly?
You put too much mouthpice in your mouth
MaryUncensord you helped me so much
Why does it go super high when I play it? It's so high it sounds like a fire alarm in my house. Please help me!
same!
Mine sounds quite high😥 whyyyyy????
I don't understand the theory. As in cos its tuned to a Bb does that mean it should say E on my chromatic tuner?
hello when do u upgrade r ligature on r clarniet !! how long sure wait i been doing it about few month now............
If my sound flat Whether in higher notes or lower notes how can i tune?
thanks you:)) :))
I'm not able to make that sound. All that comes out is that blowing sound 😖😫
this is the same for me
Obviously with the reed. Use the mouth piece with the reed first then start adding the other pieces of the clarinet.
are you playing a clarinet in A?
When I tried on just the mouthpiece it worked but then when I put it on the rest it would not work or make a sound
Easier than expected
I did it
my sound keeps counting out when I blow how do I stop this from happening please respond I need help
i cant do the 10 second challenge but still thanks this helped a lot
I made a horable sound
I am unable to follow the embouchure you explained i.e. the the teeth touching the mouthpiece. If I try hard, the Air is slipping off from the sides. Does this change from person to person based on his / her size of mouth? Looks like that to me. My Upper lip is not closing in while biting with teeth. Can you clarify please? Thank you for the wonderful tutorial (going into practically every nitty gritty.).
It happens to me too... I am very confused about that too
Prasad Burra If a bit of air slips out that's fine
where do you get this stuf
I still can't get it I was able to get it on my first and 2nd try with my band directors clarinet but now practicing at home I can't make the sound :/... (yes I've tripled check everything so it's all setup right)
I'm making sound its just I can keep the sound for along time
Mine makes a really high noise. But please don't say put more mouth piece in or blow harder. Because I'm tried ever play of the mouth piece. But it doesn't make a sound until I'm half way down the mouth piece, which feels really uncomfortable. And I've tried blowing different amounts of air and it doesn't make a noise unless I let all my air out at once. And I can only hold it for like 2 seconds or less. I don't know what else could be wrong. The ones at school work fine but we aren't aloud to play those ones
Chloe Pr0pp if it makes a high pitched sound then you have to much of the mouth piece in your mouth
I can’t play it!😣 When I tried someone helped me I was fine but now I can’t😫😫😫😫
who else is in 5th and going to 6th grade
MLGJJSAV me
The tone out of my mouthpiece is making a low E pitch, is that ok?
First thing to try would be to blow faster air. If it still isn't up to the F#, try taking a LITTLE more mouthpiece in and bite a LITTLE firmer. That should do it.
what happens if you sound low when you practice
I’m watching this even though I play saxophone to see how similar they are
I did everything but my clarinet doesn't make a sound. What do I do?
Sorry I was using the mouthpiece upside down, but thank you for responding! 😂
How come I can make a sound with the whole Clarinet, but not the barrel and mouthpiece?
i cant do this what am i doing wrong
A way to make a band face is say wee(hold it)too than roll you bottom lip aver you bottom teeth(my music lesson teach told me and others this it's very simply)
