no homicide before the holidays♥ asked:


I’m attending a Fine Arts Camp this summer for the Bb clarinet, and apparantly I have to do an audition. What it says on the sheet is:
“…Music auditions consist of several major scales, a chromatic scale the full range of the instrument, and sight-reading.”

What scales are most likely going to be in the audition, and a bigger problem is I need a site that will help me with the chromatic scale. What does it mean by “the full range of the instrument:”? where can I find the fingerings? Please help me?!
Gah I’ve played the instrument from 2 years, but I’m in middle school and they don’t teach the -really- high notes. Plus I can barely play on a 3 1/2 reed, which would make it very hard to reach the notes above C (thumb+register key)

–second answerer, you are NO help at all. Thanks
Sorry I’m so worried, just I didn’t expect the “full range” thing, I don’t know the full range, I think I’m missing like 5 notes from it. I’ll try what you guys are telling me. Thank you!
