There are special adhesives for it. Take it to a professional to fix. They can fix it quick and it'll only be a few dollars.

you can go to E-bay or your band director and there are flat cork strips you jstu wrape it around the place where you old cork came off, with the help of some supper glue apoxy or pad and cork glue ( you can get on e-bay) and let it dry for a day or to and then jstu greese it up and there you go. much cheaper than sendginti to a repair place. Also you coudl invest in a repair kit taht will inclue cork strips pads and springs alogn with the tools. Reapairs on clarinets are pretty easy, and can be costly. so do it yoruself.

Let it air-dry before you put the clarinet together again--carefully. Worst-case scenario, the cork will be unglued and you'll need that piece re-corked. Not a huge deal. But I'm guessing that if you let it air dry completely, it'll be fine.

The "official secret method" is contact cement. Put a little on the mouthpiece, a little on the cork...and wait about 30-45 seconds. Then attach them carefully because it won't come apart if you don't get it straight.

Just ducttape the mouthpiece on to the neck of the clarinet. That way you wont need cork!!!!! It looks good too as an added bonus.

You take it to be repaired professionally, unless you like playing a ghetto rigged clarinet.

try little dabs of super glue, let dry completely before putting it back together, otherwise, take it to a shop, it probably won't cost a lot, use masking tape to replace it until you can get it fixed...

Take it to the music shop, and they'll re-cork it for you

Go to a music shop, because if you did it yourself you can really mess it up. Trust me. I have a trumpet, and i really messed it up trying to fix it up myself. I ended up paying more that I needed to.
