The book and the CD are very helpful in learning to play the clarinet. Thank you very much!!
My 10 year old is using this book for her first year of clarinet. It's very easy to read for a beginner
The book arrived in a timely manner - only it was for percussion and NOT clarinet as I had ordered! I reordered it and the second time it arrived correctly. It’s annoying as I have to return the first book which is why I took a star off. Otherwise the book is what the music teacher requested and arrived in good shape.
I'm retired and this book is working out for me to teach myself clairenet, so I would recommend this for the young and older student. The CD is what does it.
This is perfect for beginners or those getting back into playing. After 10 years I decided to start playing again. This was the book we used in band class so I knew it would be an excellent choice to relearn notes/fingering chart.
as advertised with quick delivery
Ordered for my son for music class, book met requirements set by the teacher.
This clarinet book has been a great addition as my beginner takes off learning.
