A comprehensive study text for students beginning a serious study of jazz. The first part of the book begins by teaching elements of jazz phrasing, articulation, vibrato and interpretation of rhythms through exercises and original pieces. Next, the book encourages improvisational skills through both theoretical and technical studies of scales and chords. The second half of the book builds on the skills learned in the first part with an in-depth study of the theory, which underlies improvisational techniques including scales, modal concepts and chord construction. Ear training, particularly the development of the ability to hear chord progressions is also emphasized.

This collection of music arranged for B-flat clarinet and piano is divided into two sections. The first features eleven folk songs from around the world that can be played by intermediate-level performers (both instruments). The second section consists of ten compositions that are well known and were written in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries by esteemed composers such as Pachelbel, Handel, J.S. Bach, Mendelssohn, and Beethoven. This music can be played by intermediate-level clarinetists, and the piano accompaniment will be of moderate challenge. The tunes in each section are of moderate length and can be played for festival, church, school, and leisure occasions. The piano accompaniment is available as a free download.

The first Gymnopedie, a word coined by Satie himself, is perhaps the composer's most recognizable work. The melancholic nature of the melody lends itself well to the sombre mood of the clarinet.

The famous Mexican Hat Dance is a traditional melody that has been used extensively in movie scores. This arrangement has used several creative compositional devices to make it more rhythmically and melodically interesting. The use of 3/4 interspersed occasionally throughout the piece breaks up the 6/8 feel. The form is simple---a short introduction, the melody [A] repeats several times, the [B] section starts slowly and dramatically (with clapping at the appropriate moments) accelerating, leading back to the [A] melody. What is interesting in this recap is that the two major themes are played simultaneously.

This arrangement, for 6 clarinets, was taken from a collection of short pieces for five voices. It was written in the early 1600s for Christmas time but is well suited for performances at any time of year. A call and response between a soloist and the rest of the ensemble adds to the interest of this work.

The most often performed Christmas piece is now scored for five flutes. The key has been altered to A-flat concert and everyone has a chance to play some of the melody so all parts are interesting and fun.

This popular aria is a beautiful addition to the music for flute ensemble. The lyrical side of the instrument is explored with the elegant melody of the solo line and the background figures that support the theme. Not too long nor too difficult, this could be played by a young flute quartet with some practice.
