Sounds like an exercise I do, overblowing to hit the first 3 harmonics of each note, starting at low E and ascending chromatically.

Not that useful mk? I have to disagree. So much of clarinet playing is about throat position, and if you practise pitching the WRONG harmonic so that you know what it feels like, you're less likely to pitch them accidentally...i.e. squeak.

Check here for a decent enough explanation of overtones/harmonics.
