Clarinets

Required Supplies for the Year: 

Links below are our educator suggestions and linked for convenience. You are not limited to these choices. 

1.) Clarinet: Rentals Available Through David French Music

2.) Reeds:  Beginning of Year - One box of Strength 2 1/2 Rico Royal Brand or Strength 2 Vandoren 

**Make sure to get Bb Clarinet Reeds for Soprano Clarinet. Reeds do break as we go through the process of learning to care for them at the start of the year. Once students have mastered the care procedures reeds will last much longer! Reeds are available for delivery through David French Music as well. Strengths will change through the year! Please don't bulk buy! We need these right away as most rentals only come with one or two reeds to start.  

                      From January on - Strength 2 1/2 Vandoren 

 3.) Cleaning Swab:  Amazon Option  or  David French Option  

3.)  Books: Standard of Excellence Book 1 for Clarinet (Red)  and  Rhythms and Beyond  

4.) A 1 Inch, 3 Ring Binder along with a pencil pouch and at least 2 pencils inside. We also suggest sheet protectors to keep your sheet music flat and organized.

                        **this will be used all the way through your band experience at Chenery to organize our music and materials
