Denny-Chambers - Finger Fitness Foundations for Clarinet

Finger Fitness Foundations provides a fun way to tackle the most common clarinet finger obstacles. The 68 études feature the "68 Exercises in Mechanism" from the Celebrated Method for the Clarinet by H. Klosé. The études start very simply and progress - great for first and second year players and beyond - plus there are tons of practice tips and fingering guides included to help along the way.

An original Klosé finger drill appears at the top of each étude and is featured within the corresponding étude. Practice the drill with great attention to all details, and then dive into the étude to reinforce the drill. Aside from one étude that includes clarion Bb, the range never exceeds clarion A, making the book accessible to clarinetists of all abilities.

Finger Fitness Foundations is practical for all levels of clarinetists including pre-college students, university students, clarinet enthusiasts, as well as professional players. Simply allow your tempo choice to guide the difficulty level that suits you best. The goal of this book, as well as the other books in the “Finger Fitness” series, is to technically challenge and musically satisfy those who aspire to solidify finger fundamentals.
