Beginner Wants To Learn Jazz

Author: Richard Starkly

Not quite a total beginner, but almost. I've been teaching myself clarinet for a while, I've worked my way through the first twelve chapters of A New Tune A Day For Clarinet and I'm starting to wonder if I've chosen the best route to go where I want to go with my playing. Most of the music in the book isn't really to my taste, up to now I've figured it's just something I'm going to have to push on through but I'm looking at the next chapter and wondering if I'll have the stoumach for Danny Boy. No offence to anyone who loves it, but that's really not my type of thing.

Looking online I've seen a few books on playing jazz clarinet which look potentially more interesting but find it hard to tell if they're aimed at my level or at more accomplished players looking to learn a new style.

Does anyone out there have any recommendations?
