Quick question. How advanced should a clarinetist take there classical studies before choosing another genre if they'd like? What I mean is, from what I understand many college musicians choose between classical or jazz studies... as intermediate player who doesn't have the guidance of a band or clarinet teacher I'm wondering how advanced should I get into classical music before focusing on another genre of music if so desired?
The only lead I could provide is that my Mother told me when she was in band class, a lot of college hopefuls, including herself, would learn a movement of a Weber concerto. The Rose 32 were also a staple at some point. I take it there's a certain amount of Technic and basics/fundamentals that you must learn before developing a musical specialty.
I hope I'm not being verbose or talking in circles here. I'd like to one day be able to study and practice other genres, which I do noodle with radio songs and video game tunes if I like them that much, but I do mostly focus on things like the Rubank Intermediate and Concert & Contest collection for now. I've been playing for one year now, every bit of advice helps.
