Description

clarinet fingering altissimo Sim, Alan_303 Clarinet Fingerings & 276 TrillsFrom the publisher: "The author, Alan Sim, has enjoyed a career both as a performing musician and as a research engineer. His study of clarinet fingerings has led to this book which should be of value to students, to performers, and to the simply curious! It is an organized collection of 303 fingerings for 52 chromatic notes rising to the altississimo G two octaves above the stave! These are supported by 276 fingerings for half and whole tone trills.

From the publisher:

"The author, Alan Sim, has enjoyed a career both as a performing musician and as a research engineer. His study of clarinet fingerings has led to this book which should be of value to students, to performers, and to the simply curious!

It is an organized collection of 303 fingerings for 52 chromatic notes rising to the altississimo G two octaves above the stave! These are supported by 276 fingerings for half- and whole-tone trills.

In addition there are 8 pages of critical discussion of factors affecting tone and intonation, and liberal comments are given on every page to assist in comparing and evaluating the alternative fingerings.

All fingerings are displayed schematically by diagrams that enable instant interpretation at a glance without having to recall the meanings of various numbers and letters. Many have symbols to indicate qualitative features such as sharpness or dullness.

The fingerings are valid for soprano Boehm system clarinets in Band A having 17 keys and 6 rings."

From the preface:

"I must acknowledge indebtedness in the first place to Frederick J. Thurston and Alan Frank whose tutor 'The Clarinet,' published by Boosey & Hawkes many years ago, enabled me to embark on the task of teaching myself to play the instrument. The exceptional book 'The Clarinet & Clarinet Playing' by Robert Willaman, published by Carl Fischer in 1944, was also a great help in the early days.

It soon became apparent that fingering is a profound problem when trying to master the clarinet, and so I perused every book, tutor and fingering chart that came my way, only to find a rather limited set of fingerings scattered amongst various publications. 

I therefore set out to compile as exhaustive a collection of fingerings as was practicable, and edit the result into a useable form. This is it!

The book is, I hope, small enough to be carried in a pocket, or kept, perhaps, in an instrument case, or even perched on a stand with the music. I trust these advantages will compensate for the rather minimal size of the diagrams. 

No attempt has been made to meet the requirements of multiphonic music, etc. These are well catered for in 'New Directions for Clarinet' by Phillip Rehfeldt, published by The University of California Press Ltd. in 1977. 

A difficulty I have now is in recalling where all the information came from, many of the inclusions being a result of personal experimentation. I wish to record my thanks to those colleagues and pupils who have directly or indirectly contributed to this work, and in particular to Heather and Marion who have helped in checking the contents, and to Ken who has been so valuable with the printing and production."

Charlie’s Angel Steppers
Size: 7, Color: Black, Size: 7, Color: Black
These Beauties 😍 are grown women heels that can only be worn for a short while, Lordt, they are taxing on the arches and the the front of the shoe is very narrow so if you have a wide foot, Please reconsider or take some time to break these babies in. However, these are the Charlie Angels no one will be able to stop complimenting you on the quality and material of the shoes with that leather finished look , most heels are a very plastic or suede material, these took me back in time and that alone was steal for the price point

Gorgeous
Size: 9, Color: Tan
These are so pretty! I ended up returning these because they were so tall and I couldn’t walk in them as good as I thought I was going to be able to. Besides that, they fit true to size and were comfortable.

Wouldn’t recommend these sandals.
I was really excited to try the Steve Madden Women's Wafer Heeled Sandals, but unfortunately, I’m disappointed with the quality. The sandals look great in photos, but when I received them, I noticed that the materials felt cheap and not as durable as I expected from a brand like Steve Madden. The straps are stiff, and they rubbed against my skin, causing discomfort after only a short amount of time. The fit also wasn’t great — they felt a bit tight, especially around the toes, which made them hard to wear for longer periods. While the heel height is cute, the overall construction doesn’t seem to provide enough support, which made walking in them less comfortable than I anticipated. For the price, I expected better quality and comfort. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend these sandals.
