13. Clarinet

Clarinet actually means ‘little trumpet’ and belongs to a family of woodwind instruments. It is played using a single-reed mouthpiece and its cylindrical shape is mainly responsible for the clarinet’s distinctive musical notes. The tone quality can vary greatly with the musician, the music, the instrument, the mouthpiece, and the reed. The clarinet is an easy instrument for beginners to learn. Although high-level players will easily recognize how difficult it is to get things like dynamics, tone and tuning correct, if you are a beginner that sticks to maybe a two-octave range then the clarinet is incredibly forgiving. From a relaxed and open inhalation to a controlled and precise exhale, both brass and woodwind instruments can give your lungs a great respiratory workout.
