Three Rags for Clarinet Quartet. Par JOPLIN SCOTT. Qui dit Scott Joplin, dit ragtime. Surnommé « le roi du ragtime », ce pianiste et compositeur américain (1868?1917) a écrit une bonne centaine de rags, parmi lesquels les célèbres « Maple Leaf Rag » et « The Entertainer ». Ce genre musical se reconnaît aisément : une mélodie syncopée accompagnée d?une ligne de basse régulière au rythme simple. Comme ces deux éléments sont en partie décalés et, parfois, se contrarient même, la musique swingue beaucoup. « Rag » signifiant « lambeau », le terme « ragtime » provient donc de cette impression de déchirement entre mélodie et ligne de basse. La plupart des rags sont écrits pour le piano. Ils ont joui d?une immense popularité au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles, principalement grâce à Joplin lui-même. Après sa disparition, l?ère du ragtime en tant que courant dominant s?acheva. Les années 1970 ont connu un regain d?intérêt pour Scott Joplin, surtout grâce au succès cinématographique The Sting (L?Arnaque), dont la bande sonore comprend plusieurs de ses compositions, y compris « The Entertainer ». Les trois rags rassemblés dans cet arrangement ne comptent pas parmi les plus connus de Joplin, mais ils sont incontestablement de haut niveau. / Date parution : 2022-01-18/ Répertoire / 4 Clarinettes

Le titre Metamorphosis décrit une transformation musicale - autrement dit le processus qui commence avec nos origines (Initium) puis progresse à travers l'évolution du corps et de l'âme (Corpus Animus) et enfin grâceà l'expérience de la vie (Virtus Invidia) se développe en une personnalité adulte (Estasi).Les musiciens connaîtront des états d'esprit changeants entretenant la conscience de ce qui a été et de ce qui sera (le présent et l’avenir) tout en jouant. Les passages d’improvisation ont été délibérément laissés vierges –sans notation – afin de permettre ? l’instrumentiste d’évoluer sans contraintes dans ce style musical et de laisser libre cours ? son imagination.

Arcangelo Corelli a contribué à développer l'art du Concerto grosso, qui consiste à opposer un groupe de solistes (le conccertino) à un orchestre à cordes avec basse continue qui l'accompagne (le ripieno ou concerto grosso).Dans le Concerto grosso #8, le concertino est composé de deux violons et un violoncelle. Il s'avère que l'on entend très souvent ce Concerto Grosso pour la nuit de Noël sous forme réduite pour quatuor à cordes - l'oeuvre n'y perdant pas de son caractère. / 4 Clarinettes Et Quatuors De Clarinettes

3 Original Pieces for Clarinet Quartet. Three works with quotations from well-known composers are contained in this tongue-in-cheek collection. Otto M. Schwarz has produced an outstanding recording of these works with members of the Slovak Philharmonic, which is available on all streaming and download platforms. 1. THE AMADEUS WATCH: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart?s own watch ? if he had one ? ticks away. The ticking carries us back in time with a piece that stylistically imitates the music of the 18th century in melody, harmony and rhythm. 2. COMPOSERS DINNER IN HEAVEN: At the music publisher De Haske, a composers? dinner was an integral part of trade fairs or meetings. The dinner was very popular among anyone who sat at it, not least of all because it offered one the opportunity to chat informally.? Based on such a meeting, Otto M. Schwarz has a composed a work that describes an imaginary dinner of great classical masters on a cloud in the sky. Guess which composers are present by the references in the form of musical quotations and stylistic devices! 3. SCHERZO FOR CLARINET QUARTET: The work, in 12/8 time, moves in a rapid furioso. Underscored by a continues eighth note rhythm, the work creates in the listener the sensation of a frantic rollercoaster ride. The theme moves throughout all the parts and, following a chromatically moving chord sequence, ends in a dramatic crescendo.

French composer and conductor Henri Tomasi (1901-1971) published Three Divertissements for Clarinet Quartet in 1964. As with his other wind compositions Three Divertissements was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured into musical studies by his parents Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor and during the summer he stayed with his Grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However in 1921 he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and went on to become ahigh profile composer and conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes often incorporating themes of the songs he had learnt during the summers with his Grandmother into his compositions. The Three Divertissements are named; 1) Proceedings 2) Masquerade and 3) Rounds. This Tomasi piece is suitable to an advanced Clarinet Quartet providing an exciting alternative addition to the ensemble repertoire.

Three character pieces useful for recitals. The complete work has a duration of five minutes. Originally written for three B Flat Clarinets and Bass Clarinet but can also be played using four B Flat Clarinets-an optional fourth Clarinet part is included.

Toccata, Adagio e Fuga per quartetto di clarinetti. Par CALLIGARIS SERGIO. Sergio Calligaris was born in Rosario (1941), Argentina. He is one of the last musicians to incarnate the traditional 19th century figure of pianist, teacher and composer, inaugurated at the beginning of the 19th century by Muzio Clementi and carriedon after that by a sequence of famous names that the history of music has handed down to us. As a pianist, he began to give public performances at the age of 13, making his debut in his home town Rosario. Following this success, he embarked upon an extremely busy career as a soloist, giving numerous recitals in Buenos Aires and other citiesin Argentina. He continued to take advanced lessons with eminent exponents of the most prestigious international piano schools. In 1974 he became an Italian citizen and settled in Rome, teaching piano as principal instrument at the S. Pietro a Majella StateConservatory in Naples, the Luisa DAnnunzio Conservatory in Pescara and the Alfredo Casella Conservatory in Aquila. As a composer, he began - at just 9 years of age - to study in the rigorous school of Paul Hindemith, under the guidance of Father Luis Machado, from whom he inherited a love of counterpoint and a strong taste for harmony. He took a diploma incomposition, counterpoint and fugue at the age of 16 at the Amigos del Arte Society in Rosario, going on in 1964 to do an advanced course in 12-tone counterpoint at the Cleveland Institute of Music. The catalogue of his compositions, which has nowreached Op. 55, encompasses a huge range of instrumental/vocal chamber music and symphonic works: a vast and articulated catalogue, in which Sergio Calligaris’s composition expresses its inspiration through the dramatic development of a dialecticalcontrast between the two natures of the composer’s personality - the elegiac and the dithyrambic - which confront and interact with each other giving rise to artistic outcomes of a deeply moving nature. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Date parution : 1905-06-17/ Répertoire / 4 Clarinettes
