Just toss them and get to playing 🎶

Thanks to for keeping those instruments safe (and sounding great)! 💛

This weekend’s balance looks like:

Show up fully. Protect your time fiercely.

Avoid this common clarinet pitfall! 🎵
❌ Don’t say “Too.” When students say “Too,” that puts the tongue on the roof of the mouth instead of the reed—and that creates a thuddy, popping sound instead of a clean articulation.
✅ Quick fix: say, “Thoo” to place tip of the tongue in a more forward position to tongue on the tip of the reed for a crisp “T” articulation.
👉 Try it with your clarinet section this week!
