With De Haske Listen, Read & Play - Clarinet (Oehler) Jaap Kastelein presents an ideal school for the clarinet with Oehler system. The concept used here corresponds to that of modern music teaching and makes the learning process refreshingly varied by means of games, puzzles, listening exercises, songs and original compositions. This complete edition includes all three volumes of the series.
Volume 1 of the school is aimed at beginners and teaches the musical basics of playing the clarinet. It covers note values up to eighth notes in a moderate range, a few accidentals and accidentals, as well as necessary auxiliary fingerings. This can be built upon in further lessons to help students become excellent musicians. The holistic knowledge of one's own musical instrument is also an extremely important aspect. For this reason, the edition includes an extra page illustrating the history of the clarinet.
The second volume expands the knowledge of note values up to sixteenths, the 6/8 time signature, chromatic range expansion, and instrument-specific exercises and playing techniques.
In order to bring students even closer to their musical instrument, the third volume focuses on instrument making. It is this approach to learning an instrument that is of great importance, as the subject matter is more easily memorized through an exciting design of the units, thus stimulating a willingness to learn. Playing content in this edition includes the playing of numerous pieces, new scales, intervals and the determination of keys, the development of rhythmic knowledge, further instrument-specific exercises and improvising to chord schemes.
