Etüden für Klarinette

Éva Perényi has compiled a diverse group of 169 intermediate-level etudes in 85 pages. These etudes progress in difficulty from several that are very simple (although with 16th notes and compound meters) to intermediate level studies that reach a high e only a few times. The etudes are in keys up to three sharps or flats, except for a few of four sharps or flats. The first etudes are four to a page; the last ones fill a page. Although easily sight-readable by an advanced player, this book could fill a second purpose beyond its intended function as a beginning bass clarinet study book for a more experienced player.
