Jack Brymer is world renowned as an international concert soloist and principal clarinettist of London Orchestras and in this spectacular volume he surveys the Clarinet's short history and the vital influence on its development of virtuosi and composers who have written for them. This is an instructional book with a wealth of information with analysis and discussion, often stimulating and controversial views. For all Clarinettists, this book contains historical context as well as methods, techniques, advice and the knowledge and experience of a master, forming a comprehensive and inspiring volume.
The Yehudi Mehuhin Music Guides are hugely important and twice as useful! Each one concentrates on a particular instrument from the orchestral family; giving information, background, history, and technique all by recognised and skilled musicians - experts in their field who are well placed to pass on their experience.
