I had a friend who was a clarinetist, she played a clarinet in a orchestra.  Do you play or have friends that do?
I have one friend that plays the clarinet its a beautiful instrument with its single reed. 
It is, I am a bit into jazz and Ben Goodman was a clarinetist as well.  He was called the "King of Swing" back in the 30s.
Thats an awesome title do you happen to know how many finger holes it has?
I actually don't know.  I know it has wooden reed in for the mouthpiece and it has kind of bell shape at the end.
I truly think the wooden reed is an awesome idea.
Yeah you have to make sure to clean those though, they can collect bacteria or mold and that would be bad for your mouth!
