Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this work for bass clarinet?
No. This edition is written for B-flat soprano clarinet. A bass clarinet player needs the edition printed for that instrument.
02Is this for absolute beginners?
Yes. Book 1 is the starting volume in the series, so it begins with first notes and rhythms.
03Can I teach myself from it?
It's a band method built around class instruction. You can work through it alone, but reeds, embouchure and tone still need a teacher's ear.
04Do I need Book 2 right away?
No. Book 1 stands on its own for the first stretch of playing; move up when you finish it.
