Críticas:

Although Michele Gingras designates 'advanced' clarinetists in the sub-title to her book, there is a wealth of material in Clarinet Secrets that can benefit less accomplished clarinetists....I congratulate Michele Gingras on a well-thought-out and handsomely-presented handbook which contains a great deal of useful advice, concepts, and ideas for clarinetists. Ideally, it should go through many printings in the future. The accompanying CD of Gingras performing clearly illustrates many of the techniques she addresses in the book. This volume should be on the reference shelves of music libraries and band rooms, and in the personal libraries of clarinet teachers and students across North America and beyond. It is a fine contribution to the study of clarinet playing in all its richness and diversity. * Canadian Winds * Michele Gingras' Clarinet Secrets deals with an incredibly wide range of tactics related to teaching and performing the clarinet and does so in an engaging and even entertaining way. The writing style is clear and to the point, never stodgy... Highly recommended. -- Larry Combs, Principal Clarinet, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Clarinet Professor, De Paul University
