Amy,
I have to agree with Larry. Baermann is something that I practice. I can't imagine using
it as a warm up.
To warm up for the day, I have recently began using "Clarinet Warm-Ups: Materials for
the Contemporary Clarinetist" by Kelly Burke for about a year now. It's much like a "buffet" of
warm up materials (even contains scale exercises). I choose different exercises each day to
maintain variety. She has several exercises in each section. I think any player would find this
book invaluable... no matter what level! Burke's book contains the following:
Pre-playing Warm-Ups (mental preparation, breathing, physical preparation)
Playing Warm-Ups (long tones, sound exercises, intonation, technical warm-ups, finger
exercises, basic finger motions, over the break, articulation, basic scale and chordal patterns,
chromatic patterns, intervals)
Expanding the Warm-Up (contemporary scale forms, multiple articulation, quarter tones,
multiphonics)
Performance Routine
Reference Materials
I believe I bought the book from Muncy Winds, but I can't recall the price. It was a typical
price one would expect of a technique or method book.
Kelly Burke is on staff at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG).
Good Luck!
