The ABC Clarinet Series provides useful material for the young learner. The lastest addition to the series is Stepping Down, a set of 12 concert pieces for clarinet and piano for the elementary player. These low-register pieces only assume knowledge of the left-hand (middle C to A) and the pieces help to gradually increase the players range downwards through B, Bb, A and G.
