clarinet and sax

I just received today, after a 5 week wait, the bass clarinet I had bought on Ebay back at the end of January. I bought it on a whim, if you will (chorus sings Whim Away, Whim Away), as I have wanted to find an instrument that would be fairly easy to learn due to its similarity with sax. I...

I'm a sax player, with my primary horn the soprano and second on tenor. Right now, I'm fairly competent on the sax, and still improving, and thought it would be fun to do something musical with my wife. She's loved the clarinet all her life and I was thinking of taking lessons with her so we...

Hello, I'm a 20 year old tenor player who has been playing for 2 years now and I want to buy another instrument, and I've narrowed it down to Soprano and Clarinet since I want to compliment the tenor's low register with a high registered instrument. My band plays music inspired by Pat Metheny...

First of all I have to say I just love this forum! Now to the good stuff :D I'm a high school junior and I've been playing saxophone for 5 years mainly Tenor. Since about last year I've begun to play clarinet in my school's Wind Ensembles since my band director loved that clarinet heavy...

Hi, I play the sax (grade 7) and clarinet (gr.5) and I was wondering about a bass clarinet. The main question is, is the bass hard to learn compared to the saxophone and clarinet? Also, would you recommend it to me, do you like it?.... would I?

Does anyone know of any advanced duets for saxophone and clarinet? I've been looking online for a while but I haven't found any so far.

Just read the BOLD part at the bottom, if you want. Some background info for those who like details: So I'm a clarinet player trying to (re)learn saxophone, specifically alto (specifically cannonball big bell global series with a meyer 5 mp and V16, strength 3 reeds if that matters ...). My...
