Easy Clarinet Duets Below the Break


Book Description

Easy Clarinet Duets Below the Break is a collection of 10 duets which I have written especially for young students who have not yet ventured over the break. This collection would be very useful for teachers who are looking for something fun to do at the end of a lesson, and they could be performed at an end of term concert or a school assembly. As a teacher, I found that there were very few clarinet duet books that didn't get too difficult too quickly, and the ones that were easy were just a bit boring for the students. This collection aims to fill that niche and there is something for everyone in there, without being difficult or overwhelming.The contents include:1. Marigold2. Summer Moment3. Sparkle4. Ghost Train5. Weekend Winner6. Philosophy7. Class8. Meditation9. Cloudy Lemonade10. Shady SubwayThere is a wide variety of styles included in this collection, and each duet focuses on a different technique, from staccato and legato to dynamics and syncopation. These duets should provide a fun break from exam materiel, while still providing an educational element.




The Art of Clarinet Playing


Book Description

Keith Stein was already a phenomenal clarinetist when he attended the very first session of the National Music Camp at Interlochen, Michigan. Stein was then accepted into the Chicago Symphony, and became one of its youngest members. He earned a master of music degree at the University of Michigan, and his teaching career began at Michigan State University and Interlochen, where he remained for the next 41 years until he retired. Within this book, the author makes the player aware of all the many faulty habits he may have acquired, then offers constructive suggestions for remedying each one.




Best Beginning Clarinet Book for Kids

Finally, a clarinet book with appeal to kids that focuses on fundamentals taught through songs that young people love to play. Author Larry E. Newman (Beginning Band Fun Book series) created this book to be used as a first year beginning method or as a second year review and continuing book for the progressing intermediate student. The book is crammed with tons of musical examples, scales, arpeggios, songs, solos, duets and trios. Mix and match the clarinet book with other instrument books in this collection to create customized woodwind and brass groups.
