 engraving error or intentional
Author: Ralph Katz

I got copies of Alfred Uhl: 48 Studies for Clarinet books 1 & 2.

The engraving sometimes splits measures across staves, so half the measure is at the end of a line, and the other half at the beginning of the next line. This is not universally done, only in the first few etudes. Maybe they fired the typesetter, or slapped his hands with a ruler. Oh, wait, there is another one in No. 46. Doesn't this make sight-reading a bear?

In Book 1, Etude 2, measure 11 is split. There is a c# in the first half of the bar, and an otherwise unmodified c in the second half of the bar, so it should be c#, but that sure doesn't sound right. Accidentals are clearly marked when bars are split in subsequent etudes.

Is it designed to trip up the player? Or just a mistake?

picky, picky...

Ya know, I never really noticed that. There are plenty of pieces where the measures are particularly long (ie Stravinsky Three Pieces) where there is really no other logical way to present the music. I for one don't actually "count." I play the length of the note or rest at hand. I guess accidentals could be an issue but again, never really occurred to me.

I've always played it as a C natural, to be consistent with the on-going half step pattern.

Yes, careless editing.

Is this the one volume edition? I see that it is available as v.1, v.2, or all in one (published by Schott).

I have the two separate volumes as well. It's equivalent to the Rose 40 Etudes split into two volumes in size. I think it's easier to deal with "books" that are limited to a "stay-open-on-your-stand" size as opposed to The Complete Method for Clarinet by Lazarus. But I think that's the only practical difference.
