The Cambridge Clarinet Tutor is a comprehensive and stimulating
introduction to clarinet playing. Through the sixteen progressive
stages the beginner will develop the technical skills and
musicianship necessary to establish a love and understanding of the
clarinet and its music. Each stage comprises thorough technical
exercises, scales and arpeggios where relevant, a study, duets for
pupil and teacher, a piece with piano accompaniment and a work
introducing the player to the more traditional repertoire. The
studies and pieces composed by Paul Harris for the tutor are the
result of many years' teaching experience, and will add
significantly to the music available for the early stages of
clarinet playing. The colourful melodies, rhythms and harmonies
combine to make valuable teaching material and, from the beginning,
excite the musical imagination of the pupil.
