How can I lessen the amount of moisture or what some brass players call "water"? I have a real problem with this. I seem to leave a puddle of "water" on the floor after I`m done playing. It just seems to endlessly drip out of my clarinet`s bell.

you may swap your clarinet during a break in your playing. you may also put a aborbent paper on the floor to absorb the water dripped out. A plastic clarinet drips more water than a wooden one. Are you playing with a plastic or a wooden instrument ?

This may seem like a very bad thing. But it`s a good thing. I leak spit too. It just means that you`re playing hard and blowing through your instrument.

O.K I have a good question I also leak a lot of spit when i play but lately when I play for a while i get a really spitty sound that comes out. When this happens i will usually switch from plastic to wooden because I have both. Is there anything that I can do so I do not have to switch intruments in the middle of a performance? I tried to clean it and it did not change anything.

As disgusting as this may sound you could try "sucking the spit up".
With your mouth on the mouthpiece suck up and you should clear out some of the spit from in your reed and throughout the instrument.
You may also have spit in your pad, in that case you need to figure out which pad it is and use cigarrette paper to clean out the spit.
Put the paper under the spitty pad and press it down (be sure you don`t get any glue on the pad). My clarinet tends to get "spitty pads" on two particular pads so once you find out which pad(s) is causing the problem it will usually be that one all the time.

Thank you so much for the help. I will dtru that when I come back from pracice with Joseph Kroboth. Director of a polka band.

Spit pads are a good idea but you may also want to try and switch reed strengths, cuz there is such thing as over blowing which gives you more spit then usual. This will also improve tone quility as well.

I found a way so spit doesn`t go into the
low C# hole, which is the high G# hole under
the clarinet about 1/3 of the way down the
instrument.
What I do, is twist the two largest sections
of the clarinet at the center cork and play
with this new twist. If you look down the
front of the instrument, you turn the left
hand or top big part counter-clockwise a little,
and this keeps the saliva river in a path in the
bottom of the pipe, a little more to the left.
It works great! Bye.

This is a real problem with whistle players in that the sound generated from the fipple depends on a clear airway. Not good if you`ve got a blob of spit or condensation getting in the way!

The two best methods that we`ve found are - warming up the instrument before you actually need to play it - this allows the inside of the instrument to reach a similar temperature to the air being blown through it - thus minimising condensation.

As for spittle - if you can afford to to change mouthpieces do so - far easier than changing entire instruments. Or, wait until you get a mega loud/high note and belt the air through - this will dislodge the offending moisture away from the reed/fipple (for whistles) and allow continuous playing.

The moisture itself only causes a problem if its around the mouthpiece since thats where the sound is generated. Anywhere else it wont cause any problems to sound or playing (though might look messy).
