Take Up The Clarinet

(Music Sales America). Graham Lyons. An exciting up-to-date way of learning to play the clarinet. Play 'The Saints', 'Can Can', 'Ol' Man River' and many more popular pieces.

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.

Carefully graded methods written by instrumental specialists that emphasize good tone production, build a strong rhythmic sense and develop well-rounded musicianship.

A collection that brings enthusiasm to learning the clarinet and provides an alternative for those pupils who are working towards, or have completed Grade 1. It includes pieces that offer suggested fingering, dynamics and tempo together with technical tips, performance notes and an effective piano accompaniment.
