Written for advanced clarinetists aspiring to master their instrument and attain a higher level of artistry, Clarinet Secrets contains concepts that have been repeatedly and successfully used with students over a period of 20 years of teaching. Each strategy is explained on two facing pages with accompanying graphics, photos, and musical examples. The advanced clarinetist who is eager to improve quickly often hits a wall on challenging techniques such as rapid tonguing and the precise control of intonation. These difficult techniques and concepts are discussed right away to assuage the anxiety students usually feel when first presented with these issues. Techniques covered include: .Fingering .Memorization .Practice strategies .Tonal control .Musicianship .Using the right equipment .Non-traditional repertoire .Career-planning exercises
