Hi Dougie,

Yes that's right.

It might be nice to start with F major, which is a really easy scale on the clarinet.

If you learn that then you will very quickly be able to sight read Moon River.

I'm not sure if that is to your taste but I always enjoyed it. There are lots of beginner pieces in F major, so either way, it will get you off to a great start.

I have attached here what that F major would look like on paper. You just need to find out where the F key is, from your fingering chart.

If you do fancy a shot at Moon River, it is in this book:

and it is also one of the pieces for the ABRSM grade 1 exam. I really like the ABRSM grade books as they choose really satisfying pieces of music and advance things at a very manageable pace.
