The quality of the accompaniment is spotty - try to see if you can listen to the one you'd like to purchase first. Some are great, some ore almost unlistenable.
There's a couple other places that make accompaniments; David Blumberg of MyTempo.com (<b><a href=http://www.mytempo.com>www.mytempo.com</a></b> is a sponsor and friend of mine who makes accompaniments at the tempo you you select.

John Cipolla's Baermann stuff is great on Music Minus One. Him and I also offer it as Custom Tempo Accompaniments. I am also fond of the MMO Jewels for Woodwind Quintet - very high quality recording.

MusicPartner (a German label) has some outstanding practice CD's. But the repertoire is still very limited for the clarinet (Shumman, Brahms, Stamitz).
MMO's quality is poor to average. If you are looking to develop proper musicianships through this method, you might get some extremely bad habits with MMO. Beware!

If you buy MMO,you should buy its Laureate Series.Dr.Jerome Bunke(clarinettist) organized this series in 1973 for woodwinds inviting principal players in major orchestras in US. Each instrument series CDs have the teacher play with solos with piano(good piano players were also selected) and they you play.
In clarinet Laureate Series,the teachers are Harold Wright, Stanley Drucker,and Jerome Bunke!!!!
I do not think in future these kind of series will not be available(players fee,inviting fee,and organizing series).
Each teacher have beginning CDs,intermediate series,and advanced series(maybe each two).
Recording qualities of these CDs are far better than ordinary MMOs.
Have fun!
