I would like to know the correct embroucher for the clarinet that provides a warm and strong sound. Would anybody be kind enough to describe it? My teacher says my throat is too tight too. Any excercises that can improve it?
<Added>
And I have some trouble tonguing fast on high notes like A or above. Anyone know how to improve?

ya gotta tongue super light in the upper register, and get your tongue off of the reed as quickly as possible for legato style articulation. trying playing some rhythms on your mpc and barrel only with your free hand wrapped lightly around your throat/neck area. You shouldn't feel your neck move when you tongue, but if it does that means your tongue is moving too much. too much tongue causes all sorts of problems, especially in the upper register. good luck!
