Re: Books DVD's to assists in learning

I suppose rather than ask for suggestions let me explain the situation. My son a high school junior has been chosen as the woodwind captain of their high school. He is obsessed about making the best of the woodwind section. But the resources are limited. And so he has to make the most of the resources. Big confession: I do not play the clarinet but I am interested in learning as much as I can in order to support my child.

My son is a fairly accomplished saxophonist winning several contest and competition. He is starting to learn to double on the clarinet. he has about 8 hours of private clarinet lessons so far. He is willing to share his skills to his fellow students to the benefit of the group.

My concern is that it is most critical to have the very best teacher when the student is starting to learn ( to avoid bad habits) so I caution him about teaching his peers.

The high school has a thrombonist as band director. There are occasional visiting woodwind teachers,

Mr. Blumberg since you are interested here is a link to the youtube of his performance

Thank you all for your help.
