Enjoyable Progression with Online Support
I'm loving my journey with Essential Elements Book 2! The mix of familiar tunes and new exercises keeps it really engaging for a weekend player. The difficulty is just right – challenging but totally achievable for adult learners. Plus, the access to EEi with all those videos and pop songs makes practicing at home so much more fun and makes me feel like I'm making real progress.

Excellent Resource for Developing Clarinetists
Essential Elements Book 2 is a fantastic follow-up for young clarinet students. The pedagogy is clear and carefully paced, perfect for reinforcing rhythm and note reading from the beginning stages. The updated layout with new color photography enhances clarity, and the included EEi interactive resources, especially the videos, are invaluable for both classroom and home practice. Highly recommend for any beginning band program.

Solid Foundation for Future Ensemble Work
As a working musician, I appreciate material that builds solid fundamentals. This Clarinet Book 2, while a method book, excels at developing technique crucial for ensemble playing. The clear progression and diverse exercises prepare students for adaptable musicianship. While specific chord symbols aren't the focus here, the robust learning environment sets students up for success when they tackle more complex charts later on.
