This video documents my return to clarinet practice after stroke. I talk about slow progress, muscle weakness, cognitive fatigue, and how adapting equipment allowed me to keep practising instead of stopping. It’s about rehabilitation, perseverance, and finding ways to keep going when recovery is slow. If you can move it, you can improve it. Huge thank you to WAMusic and Descript
