Reminder

Thursday, April 4, 2019 by Karen Hickman | Uncategorized

As its almost the beginning of the Easter holidays it might be worth reminding everyone to make sure that they clean their instruments.

For Clarinets and Saxophones - a wipe over inside and out with a mild disinfectant wipe (e.g. Milton) for parts that come into contact with the mouth is recommended but remember not to immerse mouthpieces in water.  The cork will peel off of the joints if you do this!

You could give the reeds a wipe over too and remember to put them back in their protective cases rather than leave them on the mouthpiece.

Flutes can just have a wipe over inside and out with a very mild disinfectant so as not to tarnish the silver.

Don't forget to practise over the holidays though.
