This video features a tough, but effective exercise and a demonstration on how to use the metronome for speed training. Daily practice of this hand/finger exercise will result in strengthening of the left hand for clarinet players. In addition, if practiced daily for an extended period of time using a metronome, one can increas their "top speed," coordination, agility, and strength. It is quite rewarding to push through the struggle over a long period of time to reach a once unattainable tempo! Use my metronome playlist if you need a metronome, link below.
Clarinets, Cats, and Coffee is a Saturday morning series which may or may not include whatever I feel like talking about PLUS a fun little weekend exercise or etude to give viewers a little something different to practice over the weekend. #clarinetscatsandcoffee
