From the Publisher
The Second Book of Clarinet Solos continues the natural progression established in the Really Easy Clarinet Book and First Book of Clarinet Solos.
The sixteen pieces are arranged in approximate order of difficulty and provide a wide range of music for study and performance. The book encourages players to address technical issues such as rhythm, tone quality, intonation, articulation and musical character. The wide selection of pieces from a number of composers introduce a variety of styles that each require a slightly different approach to playing.
