Tirred of the Same Old Etudes?

From the wonderful http://www.natesviolin.com/ site, here are some etudes and exercises you haven't done a million times already. They fit on clarinet with occasional octave-down transpositions. All are free on IMSLP:

Schradieck, School of Violin Technics, vol. 1.
Sevcik, School of Violin Technics, vol. 1
Kreutzer, Complete Etudes
Rode, 24 Caprices
Dont, 24 Studies and Caprices

Many of these (especially the Kreutzer and Rode) are familiar from clarinet transcriptions, but there is a lot more. Some have multiple stops and string crossing arpeggios that are awkward or even unplayable on clarinet, but you can just play the melody or skip to the next one.

The site is full of technical and musical wisdom. It pays to read everything he writes.
