Re: brush up on clarinet skills?

I play both guitar and clarinet. I agree that you'll probably be using the guitar for actual music therapy rather than the clarinet. But, to brush up on your clarinet skills is a good idea, especially since you spent 4 years dedicated to it in the past.

There are some great standard books for practicing out there. Selected Studies for Clarinet by H. Voxman, published by Hal Leonard is one. Another is Artistic Studies Book 1-From the French School for Clarinet edited by David Hite (Rose studies and etudes). Or, if you're wanting to brush up on very simple basic stuff, you might try a Belwin Clarinet Method book that we used as beginner/intermediate players. If you're wanting to get your embouchure in shape and refamiliarize yourself with the instrument, you might want the simpler book and really focus on tone and intonation.
