About The Studio
The Arkansas State University Clarinet Studio is a diverse group of clarinetists and bass clarinetists, including music majors in our Music Performance, Music Education, and Bachelor of Arts degree programs, as well as non-music majors in programs across the university.
We hold clarinet studio class once a week, in which we host guest artists, perform for one another, and discuss clarinet-related topics like practicing, clarinet performers, and instrument maintenance.
The Arkansas State University Clarinet Ensemble rehearses once a week and performs 1-2 concerts per semester, featuring works for large and small clarinet ensembles.
If you are interested in becoming a music major, auditioning for a band scholarship, or becoming involved in lessons or Clarinet Ensemble, contact Dr. Cameron at ecameron@astate.edu.
