Clarinet Pinky Strength Training Exercises

Level up your pinky finger dexterity with these strength training exercises!

I created these exercises to help clarinetists develop the precision of each pinky (little) finger. This 6-page PDF includes exercises in both the chalumeau and clarion register to train clarinetists to encourage proper pinky usage, such as identifying the correct order to avoid sliding. The pinky is the weakest finger, and these exercises will help you develop strength and dexterity to improve your technique!
