Once you've read this book you'll be able to get the best out of a clarinet, make an informed purchase, and understand pretty much all the jargon that you'll come across in magazines, brochures and on the Internet. This is a book that tells you everything you need to know rather than everything there is to know.
Features include:
- What to look for when buying a clarinet - and how to avoid making expensive mistakes
- A run-through of the different brands
- Learning to play: how hard is it? Do you need to read music?
- Tips on reeds, mouthpieces, and tuning and maintaining your instrument
- Clear diagrams to illustrate all the key points
- Glossary of technical terms
