Level: Grades 1-Intermediate 

Take your clarinet playing to the next level with Style Workout for Clarinet, a collection of 40 original studies designed to help you master classical, jazz, rock, and Latin styles. Perfect for players from grade 1 to intermediate level, this book follows the success of the saxophone version, which was included in the new Associated Board examinations (grades 1-5).

The studies are grouped into four sections—Classical, Jazz, Rock, and Latin—each written in player-friendly keys to help you focus on developing a strong sense of style. James Rae offers helpful hints and tips for each piece, along with a Listening List to encourage you to explore different genres of music and develop a deeper feel for each style.
