Assembled Mouthpiece & Barrel
To make our first sounds, we will begin with just the mouthpiece and the barrel. We will add the rest of the clarinet back on soon.
If your clarinet is already assembled, carefully remove the bell, lower joint, upper joint and place them back in the case to keep them protected.

Parts & Assembly
Before we play the clarinet, it is important to understand proper assembly of the instrument to keep the clarinet in good working condition. There are a few keys on the clarinet that we must be mindful of as we assembly the instrument. Follow the instructions below to ensure you assemble your clarinet properly and keep it in good playing condition. Let's get started!
Opening the Case
Step 1- place the case on a flat surface with the handle facing you.
Step 2- carefully pull the latches up or unzip the case.
Step 3- slowly open the lid. The clarinet parts should rest easily on the bottom of the case inside pockets precisely shaped to fit each piece.
Step 4- check to make sure all the necessary pieces are in the case. Do not be alarmed if there are more pieces in your case than there are listed in the diagram; many clarinets have multiple barrels and/or mouthpieces to choose from.
Inside the Case
**Watch the assembly video before taking any of the clarinet parts out of the case**
