Sean Osborn, former clarinetist with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and graduate of the Curtis Institute of music, runs a very handy website. On it you will find many things such as Sean's bio, schedule, discography, etc., but the part of the site I want to focus on is his "Educational" section. Here you will find warmups, technique studies, legato exercises, an orchestral excerpt guide and more, all with written instructions and tips from Sean. I have found myself using this site many times for warm up ideas and help with phrasing. I haven't even begun to go through all of the information avaliable there. If you are ever bored, frustrated, or feeling uninspired, check out his site!
