The Clarinet has a reed in its' mouthpiece to generate its' sound. You must learn to place your tongue on it as you blow to start the sound. The buttons on the instrument open and close the holes to make notes. That is how sound is made, music is a different matter. Also, keeping the corners of your mouth shut like a drawstring bag around the mouthpiece also helps. It might need getting used to, the feel of the vibration of the reed in your mouth, and the feel of the mouthpiece, which can get tiring. But practice makes perfect. (Even though it might kill your lips :)
