Par LEMMENS JACQUES-NICOLAS. Fanfare by Belgian composer Jacques-Nicolas Lemmens, arranged for Clarinet Choir by Matt Johnston. Jacques-Nicolas Lemmens (1823?1881) is a composer unfamiliar to most, unless you happen to be either an organist, or a Belgian (or a Belgian organist!). At the age of 26, he was appointed organ teacher at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels with two of his most accomplished students being Alexandre Guilmant and Charles-Marie Widor. In 1879 he founded a school for church music in Mechelen, Belgium, which would later bear his name upon moving to Leuven in 1968. The Lemmensinstituut has since broadened its curriculum beyond church music and is a prominent, award-winning music conservatory. This Fanfare of Lemmens is an organ piece popular to play as a postlude or as a wedding recessional. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Clarinettes

for Solo Clarinet and Clarinet Choir. Par WEBER CARL MARIA VON. The Concertino of Carl Maria von Weber was originally composed in Spring 1811 over the course of three days for German clarinet virtuoso Heinrich Joseph Baermann. It was a particularly productive year for Weber, as he also composed the two concertos for clarinet, a bassoon concerto, and the clarinet quintet, among other pieces. A tour with Baermann from December 1811 through March 1812 performing these clarinet works was a turning point in Weber?s career, after which his music gained popularity and was more universally accepted. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Clarinettes

For Clarinet Choir-Rikudim (de l?hébreu rikud ?danse?) est une suite de quatre danses originales inspirées de la musique traditionnelle juive. L?utilisation d?une structure tonale orientale l?introduction de mesures irrégulières et la richesse sonore de l?orchestration apportent à cette œuvre une teinte mélancolique mais surtout une grande authenticité. Les thèmes très inspirés sont clairement différenciés. L?harmonisation quelquefois surprenante sans jamais être dénaturée confère à ces quatre danses originales juives une grande richesse d?expression.

Czárdás for Clarinet choir-Cette œuvre de Johan Nijs est écrite dans la forme de la czardás une danse hongroise du XIXe siècle dans laquelle alternent les passages lents et les passages rapides. Anitschka relate à la manière d?un conte les amours tumultueuses entre une fille tzigane et un jeune prince hongrois.

For Clarinet Choir-There???s a Boat Dat???s Leavin??? Soon for New York/It Ain???t Necessarily So/Summertime/I Got Plenty o' Nuttin??? is a song from the American opera Porgy and Bess composed in 1935 by George Gershwin (1898-1937) to a libretto by DuBose Heyward and his brother Ira Gershwin after Heyward???s novel Porgy - a story about the love between the crippled negro beggar Porgy and the girl Bess in the city of Charleston in South Carolina. The premi?re - not a huge success - took place on 10 October 1935 in New York.With his opera Gershwin wanted to gain recognition as a composer of classical music. Incidentally he demanded that all parts were sung by black performers; only a few unimportant parts without sung lyrics were allowed to be performed by white actors. This rule still applies: Gershwin has stated in the terms of his will that only black people were allowed stage the opera.Porgy and Bess has become popular only after Gershwin???s death. In 1959 a wonderful film was made; the soundtrack won a Grammy Award. The work is not very often performed possibly because of the difficulty of finding a whole cast of black opera singers. However various pieces from the opera are still regularly performed in numerous arrangements.
