Infos

Originally written with flute players in mind, 10 IMPROVISATIONAL CLARINET ETUDES actually works great for clarinet too! These etudes cover a wide variety of standard jazz material and are recommended for classical as well as jazz players and woodwind doublers. Because of the wide range of the clarinet, the book contains all 10 etudes in two different registers! It's like getting two books in one!! The lower register is great for learning the low end of the clarinet and the high register is more traditional for soloing. Both registers are challenging and have their merits of course. Most everything has been transposed up from the lower octave with the exception of any notes above the high G as we think it's best not to tempt fate. : )Streaming MP3s and free downloads are included so you can listen to and emulate the style, articulation, and feel of the etudes. The free streaming (and downloadable) clarinet MP3's are played by one of the great clarinetists on the planet, James Zimmermann (Principle Clarinetist Nashville Symphony 2008-2020)! 10 Improvisational Clarinet Etudes written by 3x Grammy winning woodwinds virtuoso Jeff Coffin (Dave Matthews Band/Bela Fleck & the Flecktones) over the changes of 10 jazz standards. This is a great book for any clarinet player who wants to learn more about jazz improvisation, jazz articulation, voice leading, and swing feel. Ideal for all classical or jazz clarinet players and saxophone doublers. Streaming MP3s and free MP3 downloads are available at www.jeffcoffin.com/clarinet If you're a clarinet player and you're looking for a fun challenge that will help you get more comfortable with improvisation, look no further! Jeff has put together a fun collection of etudes that'll stretch your ear and help you understand the structure of a well-improvised solo. You'll explore a wide range of styles and you'll emerge with more confidence in your own abilities. And you'll be whistling the tunes for weeks!James Zimmermann - Principal Clarinetist / Nashville Symphony (2008-2020)***I really enjoyed your book of etudes and plan to use them with students.Greg Tardy - Jazz Saxophonist & ClarinetistProfessor of Saxophone / University of Tennessee, Knoxville TN***Jeff Coffin's Improvisational Etudes for Clarinet are a great resource for classical teachers and students looking for a way to introduce the improvisational style into their playing. The etudes are written in a way that allows us to see clearly into the mind of a great improviser, while being accessible enough for the classically trained clarinetist to perform without fear!Bixby Kennedy - Associate Principal Clarinetist of the New Haven Symphony Orchestra, Associate Principal in the Albany Symphony, Principal Clarinetist of Symphony in C, Professor of Clarinet / Vanderbilt University***
