Review: I love it, worth every penny!!! - I am an adult self-learning the clarinet. I have "band" background, lots of it, but as a percussionist. So I have a head-start - I can read music, I am a pretty good sight-reader, I know how to produce good tone and intonation, but I am brand new to the clarinet. This book is about one of the most comprehensive I have seen, and I did buy a few clarinet books. It's well-laid out, easy to follow and learn from, and includes online resources that make everything worthwhile. With your 10-dollar book purchase you get complete access to a full online library of videos, sound files, PDF files, lessons, play-alongs - I mean, it's almost insane what you are getting with this cheap but amazing book. Like I said, I have some band background, and I can tell you, it's really fun to sit with a group of musicians and play together in an ensemble. The online resources included with this book make this almost a reality! You can play dozens of different songs with (usually) several different kinds of accompaniment, from metronome alone to full symphony! I played a movie theme along with an orchestra, and it sounded pretty good! There's even concert band accompaniment on some songs, which takes me right back to band class, it's awesome! And there's no band director to give me dirty looks when I squeak! For an adult self-learner, it's perfect, and even better for a student because their teacher can make and keep track of assignments, etc. Honestly, I can't recommend this book and online companion enough. For the little money you are paying, you are getting a wealth of resources of all kinds, from care to assembly to playing techniques, and the opportunity to play along with bands, pianos, orchestras, etc.! It's a lot of fun and like I said - worth every penny!

Great beginner book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent system for learning clarinet
*by S***S on March 10, 2021*

I initially passed on this book because it looked like it was designed mainly for students in band, but after talking to a friend who teaches band, he strongly recommended it for anyone learning clarinet. It is much better than the other book I initially purchased. It is broken up into a series of brief lessons that allow you to set your own pace and alternate between teaching new notes and keys and teaching simple songs that gradually increase in difficulty. As an adult who is teaching myself the clarinet, this is a great way to learn and motivates me to practice more than I had been before using it, and is well suited for learning with or without a teacher. The only and very minor shortcoming I have found so far is that it is a little brief in teaching things like how to assemble and care for the instrument and proper breathing and embouchure, but videos teaching those topics are easily found on YouTube and videos work better for those in the first place. This book is the first volume in a series of three, and I strongly recommend them for anyone learning clarinet, especially if you are working without an instructor.
