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 new 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.
