I recommend the site for the Chattanooga Clarinet Choir (I grew up in Chattanooga), which has a number of interesting things. http://chattanoogaclarinetchoir.weebly.com/

The heart and soul is Jay Craven, who has been the best clarinetist in town forever http://tnmea.org/Special_Awards/Jay_Craven.htm. Listen to him at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAMYQYX8hgE.

They have put PDFs of public domain exercises and music on line:

http://chattanoogaclarinetchoir.weebly.com/scale-studies.html
http://chattanoogaclarinetchoir.weebly.com/misc-exercises.html

The "misc-exercises" is the JeanJean Vade Mecum. It's a really big download, so be patient.

Ken, thanks for the cites concerning Jay Craven. He is a fine clarinetist who I knew in Chattanooge prior to my leaving there in the fall of 1948. I preceded him by several years as first chair clarinetest at Chattanooga City High School, and have kept up with his accomplishments since that time through mutual friends and his CDs. His service through playing at Erlanger Hospital for the pleasure of patients is outstanding, and serves as a constant reminder that all of us can be useful to society in a wide variety of ways.

P.S. I had forgotten you were from Chattanooga
