As we reach the end of another year (and another decade), we decided to look back upon past issues of The Clarinet to find some musical inspiration for 2020 and beyond. Below, you will find a list of articles discussing various aspects of pedagogy and personal growth collected from the James Gillespie Library.
The James Gillespie Library, named in honor of Dr. James Gillespie, Editor Emeritus of The Clarinet, houses the complete collection of The Clarinet dating back to the first issue from 1973. There are over 2,000 articles in the collection, and you can use the Master Index to search by article or subject. Members can access and read these (and many more!) online in the member portal of our website.
There are dozens of great articles about this subject to be discovered in past issues, but here are just a few of the wonderful articles to get you started:
