For music class, we get to choose our instruments between flute clarinet and trumpet. When I tried the flute i couldn`t make a sound, and the trumpet makes me dizzy, so i`m left with the clarinet which I realli want to play, but when I tried some of the notes like C, the sound came out kind of squeaky and its suppose to be lower cause its a C and I tried again and it still squeaky. Is there a way i can make it less squeaky and any suggestions or tips for the clarinet?

thanks,
Emily

Not enough pressure on the reed with the bottom lip may be your problem.

Start with G (no fingers down at all) then work your way down to C slowly.
