Long tone

Players should practice long tome crescendi and decrescendi so that they can hear how changes in air speed affect intonation.

Clarinet intonation

Increasing air speed on clarinet and saxophone causes the pitch the go flat, while deceasing air speed causes the pitch to go sharp.

I need more practice to get into higher level of playing clarinet

Changing mind

Have just my mind - not going to take the ABRSM Grade 8 clarinet exam this November...I'll do something else

?????

Should I concentrate on Grade 8 Theory and/or A Mus? I may not have enough time for so many exams!
