Clarinet Hard Case
Clarinet Hard Case

Public Speaking Practice, Practice, Practice
When I was in high school, I played clarinet in the school band. Every afternoon, I climbed up the hill from the bus stop carrying my clarinet case and every morning, I trudged back down the hill carrying my clarinet case, still unopened and untouched.
My performance on the clarinet failed to improve because merely carrying the clarinet was not enough to help improve my skill at playing it.
The same is true for presentations. When you're preparing to speak to a group, no matter how small or large, it's not enough to think about what you're going to say or flip through your slides while you're sitting at your desk. That doesn't count as practice.
Practice means that you actually open your mouth and say the words out loud in as close to the real environment as possible. So, for example, if you're going to stand while presenting, stand while practicing. If you're going to present while sitting around a conference table, then practice while sitting around a conference table. The purpose of practice is to become comfortable enough with your material and the mechanics of presenting it in the environment that you will be able to deliver your presentation naturally and effectively.
You should practice going through your presentation at least a few times. Memorizing it may make you more anxious since you'll be worried about forgetting the exact words you memorized. Instead, become familiar enough with your key ideas and message that you can use different words and phrases to express them each time you practice. If you choose to use notes, practice how to use them effectively without clinging to them or reading from them.
There are three major areas of content that you should focus on during your practice:
Introduction
This is your opportunity to engage the audience and also to build your confidence. You should be so comfortable with your introduction that you can deliver it effortlessly, with full eye contact, a strong voice and few pause words (like "um" or "ah").
Transitions
Presenters often get lost between points or slides. You want to practice how you will move smoothly and logically from one idea to the next. Having a well-organized presentation makes transitions easier because you can say something like, "the second reason we need a new process for handling customer complaints is…" or "the next phase of the project involves testing the software against the requirements…"
Conclusion
This is your last chance to remind the audience of your message. Don't just let your voice trail off with "well… that's it, I guess…." You should end with a powerful conclusion such as a call to action or a strong reiteration of your message and its importance to the audience.
I learned the hard way – it's not enough to carry the clarinet around and think about practicing. To improve, you actually have to open the case and play it. So the next time you have to give a presentation, make the time to practice the right way by saying the words out loud in as close the real environment as possible. As a result, your actual delivery of it will be smooth and effective.

CLARINET CASe?
I have a silver plated clarinet with a one piece body/bell. The neck and mouthpiece come off however. I need to find a one-piece clarinet case. I would prefer a hard case but anything is okay. Any suggestions?
Well, I can only find one case online and its on ebay. I don't like the color of it so I am looking for something else.
Its a selmer, silver plated clarinet. It was made in the 1930's. The two joints are connected to the barrel. The neck and mouth piece can be removed. This is the link to the ebay auction that I bought it from.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=310010095841&_trksid=p3984.cWON.m313.lVI
Could you tell me the brand of your clarinet? I've never come across a one-piece soprano clarinet, only bass. If you tell me the name I might be able to help you a little more--the company might sell hard cases. I strongly discourage soft cases, they are too risky.
OOOHHH, you have an all-metal clarinet! I'm really sorry, but a metal clarinet is not a wise choice:( There's a reason they aren't made by big manufacturers anymore.
Your best bet is to measure the dimensions of your clarinet case and the dimensions the clarinet occupies within the case, and then do as another answerer suggests--find a soprano sax case that is the same dimensions. All-metal clarinets are not in-demand and used enough by the mass market to make cases by themselves. You could have a professional make you a new case, but you're better off trying to find a soprano sax case that will fit your clarinet dimensions.
If the soprano sax case is only a little bit bigger than your clarinet, I advise you to buy some stuffing in square-shaped sheets. You can find them at any craft store--tape the stuffing (with the tape on the UNDER portion that doesn't touch the clarinet) on the outline where the clarinet will lay so it has a better cushion and doesn't roll around. You could also wrap the clarinet in the stuffing before you put it away if you don't want to tape it to the case.
Please know that repairing an all-metal clarinet (when the time comes) will be an expensive because it is much more challenging than a normal clarinet to repair.
When you can, I really advise you to get a nice used wooden clarinet. Make sure to know the exact specifications you want in your clarinet and what you're buying BEFORE you buy it. Get help from your band teacher or an employee at your local music shop.
