Mendelssohn Scherzo Clarinet Excerpt Practice Routine

This is a practice routine that I have developed over the years that I find to be the quickest and most efficient way of practicing the dreaded Mendelssohn Scherzo clarinet excerpt. One hint is once you master a certain tempo, take the metronome up two beats per minute the next day until you eventually reach your goal tempo! I strongly discourage playing more than one tempo in a day when you are trying to work this up to performance speed.
