The clarinet method op. 63 by Carl Baermann from 1867 is still a standard work in classical clarinet education today. The thoroughly revised new edition aims at reviewing the educational concept, which is still valid today, for modern lessons, adjusting the music and texts, and sensibly complementing the teaching contents.
The editor who draws on many years of experience as a clarinettist in an orchestra and university lecturer of clarinet has succeeded in adapting the valuable teaching material to the requirements of today while maintaining the basic methodology. The result is a total of 7 volumes:

Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (ED 21761, ED 21762)Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, with 2 CDs each (ED 21761-50, ED 21762-50): The CDs contain the piano accompaniment for the performance pieces, with and without clarinetTune Book 1 and 2 (ED 21763, ED 21764): piano score of the method's performance pieces, with additional inserted clarinet partDaily Exercises (ED 21765): systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, complemented and published separately from the original method
Due to trilingual nature of all editions (German, English, French), they can be used universally.

Clefand Key Studies for Clarinet is intended toprovide a comprehensive grounding in the melodic and harmonic gestures of eachkey center so that ?muscle memory? and automaticity aid in the development ofclef reading and transposition skills. Performers should find themselvesreading transpositions the same way they read treble and bass clefs?with noongoing, intervening calculation; transposing musical gestures, not individualnotes. In addition to over five hundred scales and arpeggios and over two hundredshort technical exercises, Clef and KeyStudies for Clarinet provides a wealth of slow melodic studies aimed atdeveloping tone and intonation. All exercises are placed within the context ofkeys and tonal centers so that the performer develops a vocabulary of musicalstructures that share a common syntax.



Clefand Key Studies for Clarinet isdesigned to be adaptable for a number of pedagogical and professional purposes.Work one key at a time or one key signature (major plus following relativeminor) at a time. Pick and choose which clefs to focus on or ignore the exoticclefs altogether. Use clef studies and transposition drills as warm up tunes.Use the extensive indexing to create personalized practice routines. There aremany ways to apply the drills and exercises in Clef and Key Studies forClarinet to meet each performer?s goals and objectives.

With 'Clarinet Fundamentals', Reiner Wehle presents a three-part basic work for studying the clarinet. Volume 2 is a comprehensive fingering method which takes the characteristics of the clarinet-specific fingering technique into account. The successful mastery of the fingering technique and the training of every possible fingering combination are a prerequisite for dexterity and virtuoso playing. Therefore, the volume contains a large number of exercises covering all fingering problems in great detail for the Boehm and Oehler system.
Reiner Wehle frequently teaches at master classes, is a sought-after juror at renowned competitions and has been professor at the Music Academy of Lubeck since 1993.
