Small Ensemble B-Flat Clarinet,Bass Clarinet - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1028052 Composed by Sarah Hersh. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and parts. 59 pages. Burbury Lane Music #3368591. Published by Burbury Lane Music (A0.1028052). River MusicÂ is aÂ fun and accessible pieceÂ thatÂ has receivedÂ much positiveÂ feedbackÂ in the clarinet worldÂ and has been performed manyÂ times, includingÂ at the International ClarinetÂ Association'sÂ ClarinetFest.Â ItÂ is an approximately 8 minute piece for two Bb clarinets and bass clarinet thatÂ would beÂ equally at home on an environmental-themed concert or any other type of program.Â ItÂ is a relatively advanced pieceÂ butÂ hasÂ been performedÂ byÂ highÂ school students.Â River MusicÂ wasÂ writtenÂ forÂ Clarinets for Conservation.Program Note: River Music was inspired by my time one summer spent on the Chattahoochee River and at the Chattahoochee Nature Center nearÂ Atlanta, Georgia. I have always had a connection to bodies of water, having spent many summers and weekends at the lake by my grandparentsâ€™ house in New York. While sometimes I feel like an outsider as a New Yorker living in the South, as soon as I got on the river, canoeing down the Chattahoochee, I felt at home again. Something about the river reminds me of my childhood on Lake Peekskill, and River Music was partially inspired by that connection.Once I started writing the piece, it took on a life of its own, as water and nature (and composing) often does. One reason Iâ€™ve always felt strongly about environmentalism and protecting our natural environment is that all of it â€“ the trees, the earth, the rivers, the lakes â€“ has been here long before we came along and started messing it up, and it will (hopefully) be here long after weâ€™re gone, as long as we make sure to protect these natural spaces and wilderness areas. I often think about how much trees have seen, and as I wrote this piece I started thinking about how much the river has seen too. I hear stories in River Music, and to me itâ€™s the river telling us some, though certainly nowhere near all, of its stories.Perhaps River Music will take you, the listener, on a journey down the river-not just through space, but through time. You might hear some of the same stories I hear. Or you may not. Part of the beauty of writing a piece inspired by a river is that I hope you hear in it whatever the river means to you.Note:Â TheÂ sheet musicÂ includes a score, regular setÂ of parts,Â andÂ a bonusÂ setÂ ofÂ parts thatÂ includeÂ a partial score underneath the main part.The composer is a member of ASCAP and may be reached at www.sarahhersh.com or sarahhershcomposer@gmail.com.
