[quote=Anonymous]It is a strange comment the way it's worded too but I don't disagree with her. My daughter "sucks" in her recorder too when it's filled with spit and I remember doing it too with my clarinet. If you don't, it will sound out of tune. Kids recorders filled with spit ends up being cleared in two ways. Either blow hard (teachers get that shrill sound) and it drips at the end. (Yuck) or suck it in! The spit and condensation from warm breath has to go somewhere right? OP was asking too about band. I used the school's clarinet too. It was not new and also shared by so many kids. You can't quite "wash" or boil a clarinet either. I didn't get sick from using the clarinet though. So I wouldn't worry too much about the recorders. Poor kids using communal recorders survive. I don't see why yours can't. [/quote]
