I used to play clarinet and sax in the band in high school but that was forty years ago! A friend just gave me a clarinet and I'm surprised I can get a sound out of it. It's all starting to come back to me and with your help I'm excited to play again. Wow! This is great.

I haven't played my Clarinet for over 3 years. I am surprised how quickly it is coming back to me with your easy to follow lesson thank you. Now to practice. Lots.

I used to play cornet, but lost my front upper teeth so I can't control pitch anymore. So, for my 80th birthday I celebrated by buying a Conn Albert system E-flat clarinet, and a Rubanks Elementary Method by N.W.Hovey as it has a fingering chart for both systems. I have just started, and you have helped me a bunch. 'preciate it!

Very very good. Thank you. Helps me a lot as a beginner again after 50 years of being idle.

Thank you, that was my first scale practice! I only got my clarinet last Tuesday, 3 days ago, never played one before, but I'm getting on with it! Cool!

I’ve been playing the clarinet for 2 months now and surprisingly it is not that hard to learn the notes,😊 just mesmerising the notes is the easiest way together the hang of the notes and you will see yourself playing more consistently.

Thanx. It helped me as a parent with a sixyearold that just started taking lessons. He forgot the instructions, and since I wasn't the parent being with him in the lesson, I searched on youtube for someone to show very clearly the first notes. This video helped me so now I can also play the five notes! I love the clarinetsound. It is lovely!!!

Bit baffled by some of the derogatory comments on here. For someone picking up this gorgeous instrument for the first time this is really helpful. Nicely paced, clearly explained, I'll never be George Lewis but at least now I'm hopeful of learning the basics, thank you!

Well, as my sixtieth birthday rapidly approaches (and having been through my mid-life crisis in my forties), I decided to do more with my life and "learn a new skill". So, I have picked up the clarinet for the first time. I like the way young James takes us simpletons slowly and patiently through these early stages and look forward to following him further as I progress - So far so good!

I haven't played clarinet in 50 years in junior high. I pulled it out today and was shocked at how much I remember. Thanks for this tutorial!

Thanks for the reminders. I haven't played since high school but wanted to refresh so I may be able to play in our church orchestra. Looking forward to practicing again. Great teaching. Patty

I finally learned A-A just in one simple lesson! I also thanks to you I corrected (not perfected yet of course) my embouchure! God bless you my friend.

Played clarinet in band starting in 6th grade, 1975. Continued through the end of freshman year of high school with marching band and symphonic band. So glad my parents bought me a REAL clarinet, not a plastic one. What a wonderful time in my life with music. So sorry to this day I sold it after I graduated high school. I'd love to have it back now. Learning electric and acoustic guitars with beat pedals and some keyboards now.

I appreciate this video so much! I recently inherited a clarinet, and wanted to learn some basics of the notes. This helped a lot.

Ive had a clarinet for 5yrs now and still havent learned to play it even tho I can read music and used to be in a Championship Brass Band. Your Tutorial took me back to the earliest days... I'm gonna give it a go as it's such a lovely sound you get from a Clarinet.
