RE: Wonderful Warm-ups

First of all, good for you for practicing Baermann (I assume we're talking about Book 3, or Hite's FOUNDATION STUDIES, which is the Baermann book in a more logical sequence).

Here are some other books that will supplement your studies.
Rudolf Jettel: Klarinetten Schule, Book 2
Gaston Hamelin: Gammes et Excercises
Paul Jeanjean: Vade-Mecum
Robert Stark: Arpeggio Studies

None of these are what I would call 'fun.' They are just different from the Baermann in various ways. They will all help make you a better clarinetist.

Spend an hour or 90 minutes a day using any combination of the 5 books with a metronome and you will probably notice excellent results within 6 months.

Incedentally, don't set the tempos too fast!
