Clarinet Lessons in Bethesda and Potomac
Clarinet Lessons at the International School of Music empower students by helping them form a deeper connection to the music they love and want to play. From Benny Goodman to Artie Shaw, general Jazz Band Music, Classical Music, Orchestra Music, Movie/Broadway themes, Pop/Rock music, or even World Music, a student can learn it all at the International School of Music.
Beginning clarinet students will learn the fundamentals of music such as pitch, rhythm, intonation, and terminology. Assembly and care of the clarinet, ligature, reed placement, and maintenance are covered with all beginning students. Beginning students will also learn tone production, proper embouchure, breath control, phrasing and fingerings leading to simple melodies. Technical exercises and in-lesson examples will ensure the student has an understanding of the unique registers of the instrument and an increasing ability to play music of different styles and complexities.
