The AMEB Clarinet Series 3 is a collection of examination repertoire and supplementary learning resources designed to support developing clarinet players. Published by the Australian Music Examinations Board (AMEB), the series covers Preliminary to Grade 4, offering a carefully selected range of music that develops technical ability, musical expression and performance confidence. Each grade book includes piano accompaniment for its accompanied pieces.
Developed with contributions from leading Australian clarinettists and educators, the series features the expertise of Steven Williams, an accomplished Australian clarinettist, music educator and AMEB examiner. Williams also contributed to the development of the revised AMEB Clarinet and Saxophone syllabuses, helping shape repertoire and technical requirements appropriate to each stage of musical development.
Featuring music from a variety of periods and styles, including works by Australian composers, the grade books offer valuable repertoire for AMEB examination preparation, weekly music lessons and independent performance development.
Supplementary Learning Resources
The Clarinet Technical Work (2008) and Clarinet Sight-Reading & Transposition (2000) books provide additional exercises to strengthen scales, arpeggios, technical foundations, reading fluency and transposition skills, supporting students as they progress through their AMEB examinations.
For more advanced players, the Clarinet & Bass Clarinet Orchestral and Chamber Excerpts (2008) book contains over 100 selected passages from orchestral and chamber music repertoire, covering AMEB Grades 6–8. Featuring excerpts of varying difficulty and musical styles, this collection helps develop ensemble awareness, orchestral technique and familiarity with standard repertoire, making it a useful resource for examination and audition preparation.
