Carl FischerComplete Method For Clarinet Op.63 - Parts 1 & 2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A two-part clarinet method in one volume, aimed at players building fundamentals from the beginning through intermediate study with a teacher.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Beginning clarinetists working weekly with a private teacher
- Students who need scales and exercises in one book
- School players wanting structured practice outside band rehearsal
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Advanced players hunting orchestral excerpts or solo repertoire
- Self-teaching adults who want video or audio guidance
- Saxophone or flute students — the fingerings do not transfer
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Method book, not a song collection
Content is graded exercises and studies. Progress is sequential, not pick-and-choose.
Detail 03
Op. 63 clarinet method
A long-standing conservatory-style course, so most teachers already know the page order.
Detail 04
Print format
Lies on a stand and takes pencil marks, but has no play-along audio.
Detail 05
Under $25 for both parts
Cheaper per page than buying two separate method volumes.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No instrument, reeds, or accessories included — this is the book alone
- 02Thick volume; a sturdy wire stand holds it better than a folding one
- 03Progress assumes a teacher explaining tone and embouchure alongside the exercises
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this good for a complete beginner?
Yes. Part 1 starts at the beginning. Most students work through it with a teacher rather than alone, since embouchure and air support need outside feedback.
02Do I need both parts, or just Part 1?
Both are in this single volume. Part 1 covers early study, Part 2 continues into more advanced material, so it lasts several years of lessons.
03Does it include a CD or downloadable audio?
It is a printed exercise book. Practice is with a metronome and a teacher, not play-along tracks.
04Will it lie flat on a music stand?
It is a full-size volume, so a solid stand with a wide lip works better than a lightweight folding stand.
