*hugs* It's okay, My friend, Xan, broke my mouth piece, too. Poor Clar didn't have a face for a day. But I had a back-up mouth piece cause my older sister had a mouth piece and I used that one. Hope you get a new mouth piece soon!!!! deidara_loves_clay speaking of mouth peices.... i droped mine on the floor of the schools instrument room and it broke crying it was meh only mouth peice,meh first one i ever had too...poor clarie it got a concussion.does anyone know how much a 4c plastic yamaha mouthpeice costs?uhh!!!i have to use the schools spare one and its gross and leaks air!but on the plus side i get one that has a protecer on it this time so it wont get all scratched.i hope i get the new one soon cause i get to play a solo at festivel march 6th!!!! crying it will be ok clarie...

toco clarinet night wolf princess are there dif. sized mouthpeices cause the band teacher said we should probly by a better mouthpiece for better sound?it's not true is it your ignorance hurts me...it really does. of course your mouthpiece will make you sound better/worse depending on how well it's made and how it's formed. to be honest, your mouthpiece makes more of a difference to how you sound than your horn. i recently played with a college honor band with people from 3-4 different states in my area and i was the second chair clarinetist. i play on a plastic, student model vito clarinet. i use a gigliotti mouthpiece. most everyone else in the band used wooden clarinets. if i had a wooden clarinet i'm fairly sure i would have been first chair(there was hardly any difference in skill, the first chair clarinetist even had less control in the upper register) mouthpieces make the biggest difference in the world my ignorance hurts u huh well ur rudeness hurts me it make me want to die i just can't stand rude ppl lik u i ask for one piece of info and this is wat i get!

So my mom's calrient got fixed. It sounds amazing. Apparently it was one of the first Normandys. Which is pretty cool. I am in love with it. And I could barely believe it was the same instrument. they removed the tarnish on the keys, replaced all the pads, replaced a cork or two, and put soem special oil on it to help with weather reactions from the wood. We are currently looking into getting a recommended humidifyer for it, because my mom used to live in a more humid place when she palyed it then we live now. It wa skind of annoying though because she was whining about how she wanted to paly it, yet when I offered it to her to play she ignored me.
But then she noticed I was using my mouthpiece.
Mom: I think the orgiinal wooden one is in the case.
Me: I didn't keep it in the case, but i do have it. I prefer to sue mine though.
Mom: It will sound better with the original.
Me: I'm pretty sure it isn't the original 'wooden' mouthpiece, seeing as it is plastic.
Mom: Then it is the wrong mouthpiece.
Me: It was the one in there when you first gave it to me.
Mom: Well, try it then. it might work better.
Me: >.> Fine
So I tried it. It was really thicxk! It was weird. I don't know how you could play on that mouthpiece. I like mine better. It has a good sound, even if it isn't a good brand at all.
And it makes me happy. the annoying tendancy to be impossble to tune on open G isn't existant on this clarient. my old one would alsways be sharp or flat on open g, no matter what I did. The slightest adjustment would change it drastically. Open g is still a bit out fo tune, but not nearly as much, and it is easier to control. The wooden clari(kiki) is also a bit slimmer then my old Claribelle. The thinner body makes it easier for me to do faster fingerings. It is way easier to go over the break on it too.And best yet, the high notes are much darker then on my claribelle. Which is nice, ebcause my bd was just complaining about oru high notes the other day, and now if he does another random aprt check on the aprt he was complaining about I can show off a bit. (Then maybe he will ahve some confidence in me making allstate>.>)
