Most clarinet performing problems
creep up on us without notice, but how do you fix them? If you
have a good clarinet teacher - great. But what if you are on
your own? Or one of a group struggling to keep up?
That's where we can help.
All of the difficulties answered in our books are commonly experienced
by clarinet students all over the world. Peter Moore has over
46 years of clarinet playing and teaching experience and has personal
experience of overcoming many of the problems in his books. Simple,
clearly written solutions quickly get you playing your clarinet better
than ever.
Do any of these questions ring
a bell with you?
1. My sound is weak in the bottom

a good sound?
3. I have difficulty playing long,
fast staccato passages evenly and accurately.
4. My fingers and tongue get out
of phase when I play rapid staccato or tongued passages.
5. When I am trying to get a strong
tongued accent I often get squeaks at the start of a note.
6. I find it difficult to get the
altissimo register above high Clarion C.
7. How do I get the notes above
top G?
 8.
I Find it awkward to move from side-key clarion B flat to D and chalumeau
E flat to G. (Click on small picture)
9. I always find reading keys with
more than three sharps or three flats a nightmare. Why?
10. How can I make sure that I
start playing exactly on the beat, especially in orchestra or band?
11. What is the best way to play
with vibrato?
12. I find the Bass or Contrabass
clarinets difficult to control. What's wrong?
The Music Teacher , December 1998
says: "It is an eminently sensible little book, full
of nuggets of advice from which every player can benefit."
 Not
only a sensible little book - it easily fits your pocket, purse or clarinet
case.
Please note, you WILL need
the Clarinettist's Technique Doctor
as well, if you do not already have it. This book is effectively part
2 in the series.
