Artistic Clarinet Performance (a look beyond the notes) by Tony Lamb

This book by Tony Lamb, former principal clarinettist of the English National Opera, a wonderful player and friend of us at The Clarinet Company, focuses on a subject matter often overlooked by other method books.

As the subtitle suggests, Lamb encourages the reader to look beyond the notes and perform in an expressive, authentic way. See the pictures of front and back pages below for the endorsements from leading musicians Jane Glover and Mark Wigglesworth.

Note from the Director of The Clarinet Company: I can also add my endorsement to this book - it is an excellent resource for young players to learn about aspects of style, phrasing, orchestral and chamber playing , opera and ballet, recitals and concerto performances, some history of performance and many aspects of playing musically with integrity and seeking the inner meaning of the music. There are also references to great players including an appreciation of the teacher of Tony and myself, Sidney Fell, one of the unsung heroes of our instrument who taught countless other top professional clarinettists in the UK .
