Question 1

Is it hard to learn the clarinet?

Accepted Answer

The clarinet isn’t too hard to get started with. The hardest thing at first will be making a good tone. Because it’s a single-reed woodwind, it takes some work to get the clarinet tone clear and beautiful. The next hardest thing will be learning fingerings, which can be quite complex on the clarinet. Learning all this is made a lot easier with a great tutor guiding you. You can find great clarinet teachers at TakeLessons for all levels and ages.

Question 2

Can you teach yourself the clarinet?

Accepted Answer

It is possible to teach yourself the clarinet. New learners can often learn to play a basic song after a few hours of practice. Watching tutorials online or enlisting in online courses will help you along, though eventually you will hit some learning roadblocks. The best way is to find a great teacher and take private lessons. If you have the time and resources, sign up for the best online clarinet lessons or in-person coaching at TakeLessons, an effective and affordable learning platform.
