More about this title

Why we love this

Seventy-five tracks means you have genuine choice in what your students play, not a curated list handed down. The repertoire spans two decades of radio hits, so students recognize the melodies immediately and care about nailing them. This collection turns practice into something students actually want to do.

What to expect

Playing these arrangements feels like stepping into hit radio. The melodies are instantly recognizable and sit naturally on clarinet, with the kind of accessibility that lets you focus on musicality instead of technique. Whether you're approaching a soaring ballad or a syncopated pop groove, these are songs built for enjoyment.

Who it's for

High school clarinetists and older students preparing recital solos, school concert showcase pieces, or informal performance settings. Working musicians and adult amateurs will also find familiar material that makes rehearsal time rewarding.

How to get the most out of it

  • Listen to the original recordings before rehearsing. Knowing the vocal phrasing and groove makes the clarinet line singable rather than mechanical.
  • Attend to the rhythmic pocket on up-tempo tracks like "Bye Bye Bye" and "Larger Than Life." These songs live in their grooves, so locking the subdivision matters more than rushing toward the next phrase.
  • Shape the quieter moments in ballads like "How Do I Live" and "I Will Remember You" with deliberate dynamic control. Pop vocals rely on restraint between big moments, so let your breathing patterns reflect that architecture.

How to use it

Feature individual clarinet solos at casual concerts, receptions, or fundraising events where the audience will appreciate the familiar tunes. Pair selections with other instrumental solos to create mixed-instrumentation showcase performances that showcase your clarinet section.

Skills your students will build

  • Phrasing for vocal-inspired melody lines
  • Reading and executing pop rhythm patterns
  • Dynamic control across contrasting tempos and styles
  • Tone flexibility from lyrical ballads to energetic pop grooves
