Clarinet classes in Bogotá, at home and virtual
The clarinet is one of the most versatile instruments of the woods: it is in the symphony orchestra, in jazz, in the music of the camera and at the heart of the Colombian wind gangsits sound from a cane that vibrates against the nozzle, so first classes are focused on the embocture and the air and with that well put base, the rest of the path enjoys much more.

What are you gonna learn in class clarinet
- Simple tongue's mouth: how to place the nozzle, lower lip and upper teeth for a stable sound.
- Respiration and air column to hold long notes, control dynamic and tuning.
- The interplay with the tongue: staccato, legato and accentos, fundamental to the repertoire of the band.
- To cross the "bridge" between serious and clare registration with the registration key, one of the typical challenges of the instrument.
- Readings and transposition notions in the keystone, as the clarinet itself bemol is a transpository instrument.
- A varied Repertoire: classical studies, tang and band fandangos and popular pieces that motivate you.
At how old do we start?
From age 8
In an oriential way, many children start clarinet between 8 and 9 years old, while they have their final teeth from the front (the embocture relies on them), hands that cover holes and sufficient air. Some start earlier with smaller clarinet in do or in my bemol, or are prepared with [sweet flute]](/clases/flauta-dulce)Each child is different, so his or her teacher values his or her case. Adults can start at any age.
What do you need to start with?
- A clarinet itself bemol in good condition and your teacher can help you check one used before you get it.
- Nozzle, clamp and several rods with soft hardness to start with, because they are worn with use.
- A cloth or cleaner to dry the inside after touching and a atrial.
- For virtual classes: a stable connection and a camera device with a face-to-face face.
Why Learning clarinet
Open the door to many forms: symphony bands, orchestras, camera groups, jazz and Colombian Caribbean music.
It develops a fine combination between fingers, tongue and air.
His great dynamic range, from whispering to fortiest, invites his expressivity to work from an early date.
It's a solid basis for passing later on to other tongue instruments, such as saxophone.

FAQ about clarinet
What tightness of cane should I wear at first?
It usually starts with soft rods that responded with little care and help to form the mouth without biting the nozzle. As the air and lips strengthen, your teacher will suggest you get up with toughness. Always have several rods in rotation, because each one sounds different.
What's with my clarinet after I get started?
The shilling usually comes from an excessive or insufficient lipstick or from a bad cane or from fingers that do not cover up the holes at all. It's quite normal at first and fixes with long notes and care to the position. In class, the teacher identifies the concrete cause in your case.
Can I move from clarinet to saxophone later?
Yes, it's a very common step. Share the simple tongue and several digitations, although the saxophone's embocatment is more relaxed and its registration is handled differently. If they call you jazz or popular music, check out [saxophone classes]](/clases/saxofon).
Do clarinet classes work virtual?
They work well for reading, articulation, repertoire and weekly monitoring, as long as the camera shows your mouth and your hands. To correct fine posture details, many students prefer their classes at home in and around Bogotá. In any case, what weighs most is interclass practice and we leave you with ideas about how to practice music at home.
