Blog Alert: The Curious Clarinetist

A new blog has popped up on our radar-The Curious Clarinetist. Active for just over a year, this blog features numerous posts on master classes, videos, reeds, and teaching, just to name a few topics. Geared towards clarinetists of all ages and levels, this wonderful site collects and presents material in a personal, yet informative manner. Check out the post on a master class by Yehuda Gliad; the seamless flow of the prose and content makes you feel as if you were witnessing it firsthand.  The author has also taken the time to create lists of some of the most commonly requested orchestral excerpts in auditions and offers links to IMSLP for the clarinet parts and scores. If you like what you see, don't forget to "like" the blog on Facebook to stay connected and keep tabs on new postings.
