I'm Jürgen Klotz, a teacher of clarinet, saxophone and eurhythmics (music and movement). On pantarhei-verlag.de I develop web apps for practising – they grew out of my teaching and are open to everyone.
(Please note: the website is in German.)

What you'll find there

Seven practice apps that run in the browser on phone, tablet and computer:

• Tonleiter-Ausschnitte (scale excerpts) – scales in short sections, major and minor
• Akkord-Ausschnitte (chord excerpts) – the same with chord tones (major, minor, dominant 7th, diminished 7th)
• Intervall-Ausschnitte (interval excerpts) – scales in thirds, fourths, fifths, sixths, sevenths and octaves
• Tonleiter-Stufen and Akkord-Stufen (scale steps and chord steps) – short patterns that move up step by step
• Rhythmus-Modelle (rhythm models) – rhythm exercises, including ones you put together yourself
• Licks – short melodic phrases from jazz, blues, bossa nova and jazz waltz, plus your own motifs

Everything is available in all keys. With “Weiter” (next), an excerpt moves note by note through the range; the rotations start it at a new point each time. This way you practise every scale in small, manageable portions.

If you like, you can switch on sound: playback, piano accompaniment, drum grooves, click and swing. For the German-system clarinet, the apps can also show the fingerings and where the right hand stays down.

Every exercise has its own link. My students find it in their homework and land directly on the right exercise – this works just the same for any other teacher. It also lets you build your own exercise collections, since you can create your own exercises too.

The apps are designed for clarinet and saxophone, but they work with any melody instrument.

Free, no ads, no sign-up

The apps cost nothing, show no ads, need no account and include no third-party services. And that's how it should stay.

Why I'm asking for support

I do all of this on my own, alongside my teaching: designing exercises, programming, choosing and mixing sounds, testing, writing instructions. On top of that come server costs and ongoing maintenance. With your support I can keep the apps freely available and keep developing them – with new kinds of exercises, more sound and whatever learners wish for.

Even a small regular amount helps. Thank you!

Happy practising
Jürgen Klotz
