The ICA Clarinet Enthusiasts Committee presents a three-hour workshop, “Reimagine Your Journey – Navigating Equipment, Myths, and More,” on May 3, 2025 from 12 pm – 3 pm ET.
This participatory online clarinet workshop features group warm-ups, and a group ensemble (for you to play along via Zoom), as well as breakout rooms workshops with a more specialized focus. These sessions are designed to help you navigate the clarinet more easily (see the list of topics below). All of our breakout rooms and events will be recorded, so if you register and want to view more than one you will receive a link to the replay video after the event.
