 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.

Thanks for the link, Ken. While I didn't immediately find the exercises, I did spend a bit of time in the blog area, and really enjoyed concepts presented in the Shipp's guide (and the story which went along with it).

I'll revisit the site again when I have more time.

Thanks again,
Fuzzy

I don't know if Mazas is on the site, but he's also very good (Himie Voxman used several of his études). He had a real melodic sense and his music is very vocal. It's a lot of fun making your own spontaneous clarinet arrangements of his studies. As for Dont, don't! (sorry; I've never been able to resist making a stupid joke.)
