I wish I could practice first thing in the morning, but I live in an apartment!

Thank you I think I’ll give it a try. I love both MOBA barrels but I particularly like Cocobolo which I also play your C clarinet barrel on an old Leblanc C clarinet. It sounds great. Thank you for what you are all doing over there in Canada! Have a great 2025. Bill. Uk

That’s gonna be one smelly instrument if i skip brushing

Sounds like a great way to learn to hate the clarinet (and for everyone you live with to do the same). Don't brush your teeth? The first 15 minutes will feel painful? It shouldn't. If you are consistently starting with pain you are definitley doing it wrong.

What is a good scale book?

My daughter wakes up early. I can’t imagine hearing that squeak at 5.30 am… no thanks I won’t be suggesting that.

Thank you. I have MOBA barrels. How is this different? God bless. Bill. Uk

Thank you God bless you. Bill. Uk

Are different parts of that clarinet different woods?

When do you prefer to practice?

Gosh I wish I could practice 2 hours a day … I’m just a hobbyist 😅

Thank You. Love your teaching videos. Have a great 2025. God bless you and yours. Bill. Uk

I love mine!

WONDERFUL! I usually get away with actually cutting my Bb reeds but this would make that a problem of the past!

Do you give them a mat? The band room floor is full of spit.

Playing clarinet for the 1st time in 30yrs. Very thankful for our local community band. So much fun!!!

Now that you’ve got that shiny new mouthpiece, Tim, why not give it a whirl and serenade us all? After all, we’re dying to hear your sax skills-don’t leave us hanging!

Who else loves their Backun Lumière Barrel?

I admire Timothy McAllister and his work, and i appreciate it very much. Also first

Great suggestion!

When will Atelier de Celia be in Spain?

Great, something completely new!😂

Sit up prim and proper and tap your belly to show your intelligence

That would make me fart

incredible work as always!

I love mine!

Smart

How do you like to have your students Engage their Cage?

How long can you or your students hold that paper?

Try this with your students and comment below how it went!

Wow. I wanna play like that.

I do this a lot on my baritone sax

Excellent insights. I wore out my Dad’s Marcel Mule recording of the Concertina. Dad played alto and had a copy of the music, which I liked to read along with.

Dec 15th... and man oh man did I fall for that one! I was about to search for this magic!

I'd love to win a barrel and a mouthpiece to add on to my collection!

Just think hawk Tuah

You can obviously tell he’s not actually playing by looking at his mouth

I did now this melody was produced by a saxophone! It is such a mysteriousband foreign sound. I can't quite describe it.

Best gift ever ❤

I live in Australia any more free bachun alphas clarinets😊 just hoping

A clarinetist back in the 1920s by the name of Fess William used slap tonging in many of his recordings. For example, in the 1927 song, "Phantom Blues," Williams's clarinet solo at the 56 second mark includes the slap tongue technique.

A new mouthepiece for my new backun!!!

Thank you for showing this great clarinet. Have you ever played the Selmer Recital. God bless you sir. Happy Hanukkah/Christmas. Bill. Uk
