Clarinet Quartet: 2 B-flat Clarinets, Alto Clarinet or Basset Horn, Bass Clarinet.

This arrangement for advanced players aims to present Edvard Grieg's well-known piano miniature as faithfully as possible for a clarinet quartet. The only simplification I've made is to transpose it up half a step from the original D major. It's a musically satisfying teaching piece that will also delight audiences in a "solos and ensembles" concert, or as music for a wedding. The prominent Alto Clarinet part can alternatively be played on Basset Horn.

"Deep River" is an anonymous spiritual of African - American origin. Like all spirituals, it is a song of hope and longing, expressing a desire for peace and freedom in the present and in the afterlife. It is a slow haunting melody filled with emotion and faith and embodying the soul crying out in the universal longing for freedom. Parts included are: Full Score,1st and 2nd Clarinet, Alto Clarinet (Bass Clar. substitute part), Bass Clarinet. Performance time is approx. 2 minutes 25 seconds.
