New Clarinet Mouthpieces, Please!

Help me give my students new mouthpieces to replace the broken ones on their clarinets, and cork grease to keep them together.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Aye yai yai, so many of our clarinet mouthpieces have been getting chipped this year, it's hard to keep up! Small accidents are bound to occur, especially with our youngest players who are just learning to put together and care for their instruments. Our fleet of clarinets is aging, and so are the mouthpieces which are easily chipped when they fall on the ground.

It would be wonderful to have 10 new clarinet mouthpieces on hand to save the day after these accidents happen.

I don't want my students to be discouraged when their instruments get dented or chipped, especially when they are working so hard to succeed in band.

Also, we have almost 40 new clarinet players this year, and everyone needs cork grease to keep their instruments in tip-top shape. Little things mean a lot. Thank you for your support with this project.
