I have just been given two clarinets. They aren't in brilliant condition, though one is better than the other. They're both made by Jerome Thibouville Lamy. One looks pretty old and is made of wood. The joints are very loose and I don't think it has been played for a long time. The better one isn't wood I don't think, and has a reed with it, though I can only barely get a sound out of it.

I play recorder but have never actually blown a clarinet.

Any advice or info?

Love Lynne
