I'm trying to go from 2 inch to 2.5 inch clarinet reeds but the 2.5 inch reed is a lot harder. How do I play 2.5 inch reeds better
Not inches - hardness. Therefore, 2.5 is indeed harder than 2 - which is harder than a 1.
But it's not "hard to play" it's "this wood is hard"
Reed strengths come in a range from 1 to about 6. 3...

I'm at a total loss here.
Prices vary so much
From $1.08 each to $1.99 each
And the 1.99 ones are 25 to a box - you would think they would be cheaper.
Personally, I would not recommend Rico reeds. Everyone says they suck and not even a beginner should play on them. I know you're asking for a good site to order Rico reeds but I would suggest Vandoren. In the site below, a box of 10 costs about...
So...this is my 8th year playing (my senior year in high school) and i play on a size 4 vandoren paris reed. I have some questions:

If you want to play in college, I advise you to upgrade your reed choice.
Vandorens are not good reeds for professional playing. They're mainly step-ups for high school students. If your tone is decreasing and you're using Vandoren 4's,...
I have a small question regarding clarinet reeds. I have an unopened box of 2 1/2 rico reeds. However, they are several months old. Will they still play as well as new 2 1/2 reeds? Remember, although they are unopened the box has been sitting in...
Those will be fine. I've played on a box of reeds that was 40 years old and all they needed was soaking.
Ok. I bought a box of V12 strength 3 reeds. And I tried playing on them and I couldn't make a sound. But I noticed when I loosenend up a bit a sound came. Does this mean I should move up to 3 1/2 reeds? (btw 3 reeds are feeling a little on the...
Stick to your size 3 reeds. When you use a new reed you have to tune it to your mouth. After a while it will be alright. You could try moistening your reed extra or pressing it while its in the mouthpiece gently...
Message From The Tribe: An Anthology of Tribe Records 1972-1976
If the 1960s was the decade of sexual liberation and psycho-pharmaceuticals, the 1970s was the decade of self-empowerment and community activism, and nowhere was this more true than in black America. Musicians were among the vanguard of the activists, forming collectives to increase their leverage within the "entertainment" industry and, through education projects, to strengthen their links with the communities in which they operated. The first, and still the best known, of these collectives was Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians, which was actually founded in 1965, but whose community work was ramped up significantly around 1970. Another was the Strata-East Records label founded by pianist Stanley Cowell and trumpeter Charles Tolliver in New York in 1971.
Less well remembered—and until now, barely documented—was the Tribe collective, which ran a record label and published a quarterly black awareness magazine, and was active in Detroit from 1972-77.
