Being a former clarinet player, I would really like to enjoy this more. I think the main issue here is that there is way to much glare off of the keys and the lack of interest in the fingering.
Unfortunately, unlike a flute of sax, the clarinet doesn't look good being played (at least in photographs this close), even an oboe looks better photographed this way than a clarinet (I think it has to do with the greater number of keys and the visual delicacy of the instrument). I think the best shot for a clarinet would be to put it on a piece of sheet music on a table or piano and let it go with that. Soft lighting and perhaps play around with the DoF.
I give you credit for trying this. I took a look through your portfolio here, very nice work overall.
