review

“The new clarinet book CLARINET UPDATE – New music for young clarinet players fills a gap in the market. It targets young clarinet players in particular, clearly explaining different playing methods which have become an integral part of many compositions today, especially in contemporary music.
Multiphonics, bisbigliando, glissando, microtones, vibrato, flutter tongue, even breath effects or smorzato, teeth-on-reed or slap tongue, are all techniques young musicians will soon be playing as if they were nothing. In addition, the reader will also find interesting and useful instructions for circular breathing.
Moreover, this book has also been supplemented with musical examples and a CD that demonstrates how these theoretical explanations can be implemented successfully in practice.
For young (and adult) open-minded clarinettists this book presents difficult techniques in a congenial, serious, and fun way and encourages students to try the supplementary musical material for themselves. Thus CLARINET UPDATE is sure to become an important work for students, teaching them the precise execution of apparently complicated techniques in a way that puts the play back into playing.
I hope all clarinettists will enjoy and benefit from this work – I personally had a lot of fun with it.”
