	C1045: Jazz Scale Studies Clarinet by James Rae. Universal Edition, 2006, 25 pages. The title of this book is a bit deceptive as this is not a book of scale based exercises. Instead it presents and describes the following scales: major scale, Dorian mode, Mixolydian mode, minor pentatonic scale, jazz melodic minor scale, blues scale, chromatic scale, whole-tone scale, and diminished or octatonic scale and then provides two original jazz tunes to demonstrate each scale in action. The first few tunes are quite easy but they progress to the upper intermediate level by the end of the book. In English, German, and French.	16.95
