Why would a sax player want to switch to a clarinet, the sax is amazing and i would never want to switch
-
The two greatest jazz instruments. The sax exudes sexiness, the clarinet, intelligence. I'm just glad I play both.

Go Clarinet!

That is soo not the clarinets embouchures
-
The hardest thing for me about clarinet is just knowing the names of the notes associated with the tone holes. Since it's built around 12 notes rather than 8, I don't know what notes go where, but that is easily remedied with the internets array of fingering charts.
-
@deardotzilla but even after the 2 1/2 octaves on a sax, you could just keep on voicing it up until you couldn't hear it anymore. Clarinet is harder to play due to the squeaks, but saxophone is way harder to be a professional / accomplished player.
-
you want to put as much clarinet mouthpiece in as possible or you get a bad tone
-
I like the sax embouchure better than the clarinet on
-
@Spectonimous yea but the sax honks more
-
Learning to play sax, and learning how to not sound like ass on saxophone are two different things. The fingering system is the only easy thing about sax. xD

-

-
@ShevardnadzeII lol... clarinet is easier than sax to me... even when i was a beginner.(: the only thing hard on a clarinet is getting a good sound.
-
@Spectonimous they both squeak
-
@ShevardnadzeII yeah, for my jazz band a couple clarinet players had to cross over to sax. The biggest problem I saw in them was learning to have the neckstrap adjusted correctly. haha, other than that they're pretty good
-
@ShevardnadzeII ino im beginer too my friend let my play his sax its so easy
-

-
Doesn't the clarinet squeak a lot more than a sax.
-
On the clarinet part... the pitch was too high on the mouth piece and barrel when the sax player played... her embouchure still wasn't right...
-
