| | Mitchell Lurie Clarinet Reeds - Premium - Box Of Five |
Click on the image above to see a larger version.
The Mitchell Lurie brand of clarinet reeds is one of the best brands available. This model of reed is their premium line and is what we recommend for experienced players. As with all of our boxed reeds, these reeds are at least 10% off list price, and can not be returned.
Reeds are typically available in strengths of 1 through 5 (some brands label their reeds as Soft, Medium Soft, ... through Hard). In general, the lower the number, the easier it is to play most notes. The down side, is that the lower number reeds just don't sound as nice, and make it harder to hit high notes.
As a general rule, we recommend reeds with a strength of 2 (Soft) for people just getting started, and strength 2 1/2 (Medium Soft) for people who have played for a year (less time if they take lessons). The harder reeds should only be used after using the next softer size of reed for six months to a year, or at the recommendation of a private instructor or band director.
The most common type of clarinet is the B Flat soprano clarinet. This is the type of clarinet that almost all clarinet players start with - if you don't know what kind you have, this is most likely it. On any of our products, if it doesn't specify which type of clarinet, this is the one we mean. Other types of clarinets are the E Flat clarinet, the alto clarinet, and the bass clarinet. Any products for these instruments will specifically say what type of clarinet they are made for.

There is an accompaniment CD and an accompaniment MIDI disk available for the piano lessons book. PIANO SOLOS - This book goes hand in hand with the lessons book, and contains performance repertoire that is correlated with concepts in the piano lessons book. Accompaniment CDs and MIDI disks are available for the piano solos book also. PIANO THEORY WORKBOOK - This supplemental book contains writing activities that are used to review the music theory that is introduced in the lessons book. PIANO PRACTICE GAMES - This book contains a program of theory, technique, and creativity which is correlated with music in the lessons book. POPULAR PIANO SOLOS - This is a collection of "fun" songs that are graded and arranged to supplement the piano lessons book. The "Hal Leonard Student Piano Library" is well written, thorough, and fun to use. It is a great piano method from a teaching standpoint, and also from a learning standpoint.
