hey, its simple after awhile, when people hear me playing they ask me if i waz born with a Clarinet in my hands. all u need to do is devote about two hours a day, six days a week for awhile, of just practicing outside of school. i mean I've been doing this and in the 6th grade i was put in the freshman jazz band which was loads of fun, so just do that and you'll go pro
i also play the clarinet and like the persons answer above, you really have to devote time every now and then to get a good tone. I was in the honors band festival for 8th grade and it is for the best of the best. That just goes to show what practice can do for anybody :) for some like me it will come natural though..just put effort and time and you will be successful
only one way....practice practice practice!!!!!
First of all I would really practice being able to do all of the scales, and once you have them well, then see how fast you can do them with the right fingerings and notes. Timing yourself is a fun way to practice.
Also, if you can sight read, then picking an easier piece to play, and sight-read one song a day. Eventually you will be reading harder and harder songs.

--> This goes for pretty much all instruments.
Buy yourself a few beginning band method books that also include fingering charts. Listen to clarinet recordings so you know what sort of sound you are listening for. If you do not already read music, ask for some help figuring out how to read rhythms. Find some one who knows how to play and spend some time playing together on some duets. Search out material that includes play-along CDs, it will help motivate you and keep the rhythms going.
im not sure if their is a trick other than practice!!! i have been playong clarinet for almost a year and i practice alot and i find it easy but some ppl i know dont really practice and suck:p sooooo..... PRACTICE PRACICE PRACTICE!!!
playing a clarinet is just the same with a palatal expander than it is before. I had one and there is no difference.
A plastic clarinet is good for marching band or pep band. They are more durable then wooden clarinets and will not crack due to temperature like a wooden clarinet will. They are also good for students that are just starting out on clarinet. But for anyone serious about playing the clarinet it is better to invest in a wooden clarinet.
The reed on the mouthpiece of the clarinet vibrates to create a sound. Though the whole clarinet is vibrating lightly when you are playing...But the reed is probably the answer you wanted.
"Clarinet" actually comes from the French word, "clarionette", or "little trumpet". This has to do with the size of the clarinet as well as the sounds and tone of its higher notes.
yes, but its probably very difficult all of the fingerings and notes are the same on a bass clarinet as a regular clarinet. i played clarinet 2 and a half year before i switched to bass clarinet. i would recomend at leay 1 year of beginers lessons before playing the bass clarinet

well I learned by playing the clarinet first i've been playing for two years now. It really isn't that much different then playing the clarinet, it's just an octave lower.

Well there is not necessarily one instrument that is dissonant to the clarinet. Really any instrument is dissonant to the clarinet as long as they are playing a note that has dissonance with the note that the clarinet is playing. So say the clarinet plays an A and a violin (or any other instrument) played a G# there will be a lot of dissonant. If after this you still don't understand try to find a piano and play notes that are next to each other and you will find the dissonance

Beethovan played the piano, not the clarinet, by the time he was 12.
No.
