Clarinet Grade 6: Performance Pieces

Demanding repertoire across classical, romantic, and contemporary styles

What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Imagine you're holding your clarinet 🎵. A performance piece is like a story — you need to show different moods, like happy, sad, or excited!

  2. 2

    What do you change to show a different mood in your piece?

  3. 3

    Let's look at a short phrase from a Grade 6 piece. It starts quietly (piano), then gets louder (crescendo).

  4. 4

    Practise changing from soft to loud on one note. Tap the note to hear it, then slide to change volume!

  5. 5

    What does 'p' mean in your music?

  6. 6

    Listen to these two short clips. Which one sounds more sad and gentle?

  7. 7

    When you see 'crescendo' in your piece, what should you do?
