Universal Edition

Composer: James Rae
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Solo Clarinet

This book was written in the same format as Rae's 40 Modern Studies for Solo Clarinet. Again, the pieces are of moderate length and cover a wide variety of styles. While the studies are technically demanding, they are all written in comfortable clarinet-orientated keys to allow the student to focus on interpretation. Each study is designed to improve the student's musical as well as technical abilities. These studies make attractive performance pieces pieces and are suitable for contests and auditions as well.
