Detail 01
Online audio, not a disc
You stream or download the accompaniments, so you need internet and a phone, tablet or computer to practice with.

Carl FischerI Used to Play Clarinet (Book/Online Audio)
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A refresher method for adults who played clarinet years ago and want a structured way back, not a first-time beginner course.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Adults returning to clarinet after a decade or more away
- Players who need play-along audio instead of a teacher
- Rebuilding tone and reading at a self-directed pace
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Complete beginners who have never held a clarinet
- Advancing students who already practice weekly
- Players wanting a printed CD rather than streaming or downloads
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
Book plus audio in one price
The accompaniment tracks set tempo and pitch for you, which substitutes for a teacher on timing and intonation.
Detail 03
Written for the returning player
It assumes you once read music and fingered notes, so it moves faster than a true beginner book.
Detail 04
Carl Fischer WF115
Use this number when ordering or matching editions, since the series has a separate book for each instrument.
Detail 05
$23.99
Roughly the cost of one lesson, so the audio does the work a teacher would otherwise do weekly.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No instrument, reeds, cork grease or swab included — those are separate
- 02Audio access lives online; keep the code page in the book
- 03Confirm you want clarinet, not the alto sax or flute edition
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this for a total beginner?
No. It is built for someone who played before and stopped. A first-time player is better served by a standard beginner method with fingering charts from page one.
02Does it come with a CD?
No. This edition uses online audio you stream or download. If you want a physical disc, look at the CD editions in the same series.
03Do I need a teacher alongside it?
Not required. The audio provides accompaniment and tempo. A teacher still helps most with embouchure and reed problems, which a book cannot hear.
04What clarinet does it fit?
Standard Bb clarinet parts. If you own a different clarinet, check the pitch before ordering.
