    Help Playing the Rose Étude #1 (from 32 Rose Etudes) for High School Audition

    For learning passages like these, I tend to take the approach of playing quarter tempo, then half tempo then full tempo. First, I set a metronome up at a much slower tempo than normal. If I were playing a piece at 60bpm, I would set it for 30-40. Second, I would take this passage for 32nd notes...

    Eb Clarinet Bell

    Yea, I'm sure. I played it with her mouthpiece. Same pitch. It's not that much bigger, but it is a bit bigger.

    Eb Clarinet Bell

    I got one sent to me, but it's too small :(. My friends E-11 bell was too small also, so not if I'm going to be able to find one. Think I may ask my repair guy to measure it for me.

    Thanks for the welcome. :) I've been keeping an eye on Ebay since I made the bid. I missed one by a day or so. Darn! It's a Bourdain Eb (soprano) Clarinet. Looks like the size of a general Eb clarinet. Let me friend try it out who plays a lot of Eb and she didn't notice anything out of the...

    Hi. Can't post in the "want to buy" section so I thought I'd try my luck here. I've just came into possession of an Eb clarinet without a bell (and mouthpiece for that matter, but looking for a mouthpiece is a lot easier). Any one have one, or know where I can get an inexpensive bell from? A...
