Wedding Bells was inspired by the wedding of our eldest daughter, Tess. The Wagner and Mendelssohn wedding marches are of course ever popular and the slow movement of the Mozart clarinet concerto contrasts beautifully. My own piece Wedding Bells conveys a celebratory, loving and joyous atmosphere and on the big day I played it during the signing of the register, accompanied by the father of the bride — it was an emotional performance!These arrangements are intended to catch the mood: purists please forgive me — Wagner, Mozart and Mendelssohn may not have written every note here, but I hope that they would have approved.ContentsRichard Wagner: Bridal Chorus from LohengrinWolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Clarinet Concerto — 2nd MovementPat Goddard: Wedding BellsFelix Mendelssohn: Wedding March from the incidental music to A Midsummer Night’s DreamGrades 5–7Former Spartan Press Cat.

Born in Switzerland, Jean Xavier Lefevre (1763-1829) was a sought-after clarinetist and one of the first clarinet professors at the Paris Conservatory. He is still known today for his Clarinet School (1802), which became a standard work in France and beyond. From this textbook comes the popular Sonata no. 1 with its catchy melody that encourages light playfulness. The piece is graded hereas level 2. Also available: Sonata No. 2 g minor (SE 1039). Lefevre wrote the piece originally for the then common C-Clarinet. For use in the classroom, this edition omits the transposition ofthe clarinet part into the B tuning. The accompanying bass voice of the original was transferred to the piano and supplemented with some suggestions on dynamics and articulation. Hints and tips from publisher Rudolf Mauz (Die frohliche Klarinette) offer students assistance in the preparation of the work. This edition is part of the Schott Student Edition series, which offers a diverse repertoire of lessons, concerts and exams of varying degrees of difficulty (from easy to difficult). To this end Schott continues to publish popular standard works from music history in a modern and clear edition. For many pieces an audio file of the piano accompaniment is available for download.

A 'Last Night of the Proms' without this march - unthinkable! 'Pomp and Circumstance Military March No. 1' with its middle section, the hymn-like 'Land of Hope and Glory' by Edward Elgar (1857-1934), belongs to the finale of the London music event like the Radetzky March usually played as last piece to the New Year's Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The fame and popularity of the other four military marches composed by Elgar between 1901 and 1907 fade in comparison to this secret national anthem of Great Britain (although strongly rivalled by 'Rule, Britannia!'). It is, indeed, an equally rousing and catchy piece of music, and the catchy tune in the middle has just become a classical 'hit'. Thanks to the present edition, all those who do not have a large symphony orchestra at home can now play this rousing march by themselves.

Cette oeuvre en deux mouvements pour clarinette et orchestre fut commandée par Musica Reservata vof, Belgique, et est dédiée Eddy Vanoosthuyse, un bon ami et confrère du compositeur. Elle connut du succès sa première mondiale le 10 décembre 2008 Salt Lake City (Etats-Unis), interprétée par l’orchestre Utah Philharmonia sous la direction de Robert Baldwin, avec Eddy Vanoosthuyse comme soliste. Par la suite, l’oeuvre fut mise de côté pendant quelques années, surtout parce que les agendaschargés des deux protagonistes ne leur permettaient pas de trouver le temps pour un enregistrement discographique. Pour finir, l’oeuvre fut enfin enregistrée en juin 2015 Nagoya (Japon), avec le Central Aichi Symphony Orchestra, mené par l’étoilemontante vénézolane, SergioRosales. La même semaine, le 12 juin, l’oeuvre fut présentée en concert pour la première fois au Japon par les mêmes interprètes, et connut ici aussi un grand succès. Après Concerto Doppio pour deux clarinettes et orchestre cordes, composé en 2001,voici la deuxième oeuvre de concert de Jan Van der Roost qui met la clarinette en vedette.Le premier mouvement, Doloroso e Contemplativo, transmet le côté sérieux de la clarinette et, par conséquent, il n’y figure presque pas de virtuosité ou de spectacle. Au contraire, l’orchestration colorée et variée qui est entrelacée autour de lapartie solo est bien plus qu’un simple accompagnement, et prend la forme de partenairemusical, d’importance comparable au soliste. Une introduction un peu mystérieuse mène une première apogée orchestrale en passant par des cellules musicales ascendantes. Ensuite on entend l’entrée du soliste, d’abord par des idées musicales plusfragmentaires, puis par des lignes mélodiques plus longues. L’orchestre entre en dialogue avec le soliste, et son instrumentation délicate et colorée crée un parfait encadrement musical. Vers la fin, l’atmosphère du début est réaffirmée, et lesoliste finit par la même note par laquelle il avait commencé.Le deuxième mouvement, Giocoso e Con Bravura, est une toute autre histoire : ici, le côté virtuose, et parfois presqu’acrobatique, de la clarinette est exploré. Des cascades imposantes et continuelles de notes demandent une dextérité exceptionnelleau soliste, ce qui, un certain moment, et « récompensé » par l’orchestre, par un clin d’oeil au « Hallelujah » de Handel vraiment mérité après ces feux d’artifice ! De temps en temps, l’instrument solo présente une phrase humoristique : laclarinette ne peut pas que chanter, briller et pleurer, mais aussi rire et plaisanter. Plusieurs passages sont presque caricaturaux ! La palette variée de cet instrument magnifique est démontrée parfaitement, parfois avec un brin d’humour oud’ironie. En effet, les deux mouvements contrastants de ce concerto démontrent les différentes facettes de l’instrument qui s’est établi sur la scène de musique classique ainsi que la musique légère (quel nom peu prometteur !). Dans le deuxièmemouvement, rapide pour la plupart du temps, l’orchestre est nouveau traité de manière créative et variée, offrant une palette généreuse de couleurs : sans enlever l’attention de la partie solo difficile, on peut dire que l’orchestre n’est pas qu’ l’arrière-plan, mais saisit l’occasion de briller en même temps. Pourtant, les dernières notes sont accordées la clarinette : après un tuttiorchestral énergique, le soliste conclut l’oeuvre par trois notes courtes de pianissimo comme si, de façon subtile, il voulait avoir le dernier mot. Après les nombreuses notes jouées par le clarinettiste, cette conclusion modeste estune fin surprenante d’une oeuvre au style plutôt traditionnel, qui démontre clairement la passion du compositeur pour cette merveilleuse combinaison instrumentale.br> Un merci particulier Peter Knockaert pour cette réduction pour piano duClarinet Concerto, qui fut créée pour le 4th International Clarinet Competition Ghent en 2017.

Nico Samitz has been composing for chamber ensembles since his school days. For over ten years he has been writing works in a wide variety of genres for the “BlechReiz BrassQuintett†ensemble, in which he himself plays trumpet and piano. His field of expertise ranges from classical pieces to jazz and meditative music—and even to pop-oriented compositions. While honing his skills in ear-training and composition at the Mozarteum, Salzburg, Nico became acquainted with a wide repertoire of works as a trumpet player with the Munich Symphony Orchestra, The Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Bavarian State Opera, all of which have influenced his writing style. The driving force behind his creative work is a winning combination of passion, the fun of music-making and a desire to express, through the medium of music, feelings that are difficult to put into words. Like many of his works, Nico composedThe Joy of Freedom for the “BlechReiz BrassQuintetâ€. The catchy tune is reworked in a variety of styles throughout the entire work, giving it the quality of a true 'earworm'.

This edition is enriched with a historical introduction in French and English by notable clarinettist Pierre Génisson. “[...] this piece is, without a doubt, one of the sweetest I have ever written.†As this letter that Claude Debussy wrote to Durand, his publisher, indicates, the composer held his Rhapsodie for clarinet and piano in very high regard. In 1909, when Gabriel Fauré, then director of the Paris Conservatoire, commissioned the piece, Debussy had never before written for clarinet. He dedicated it to P. Mimart, “as a token of my regard.†After the unanimous recognition of the high quality of this solo, written for competition, Mimart premiered it in public on 16 January 1911 at the Salle Gaveau in Paris. Two years later, Debussy would choose to expand it further, writing a version accompanied by orchestra with a greatly expanded palette of colors. As its name suggests, it is freeform, and emanates a great poetry. The introduction, “Rêveusement lent,†is an evocation of the dawn. This gives way to a scene of nature's awakening, which never ceases to amaze us with its transformations. At times calm and lyrical, it sometimes becomes mischievous, vindictive or even joyous, especially during the scherzando passages. In a heightened impressionist style, Debussy gives free rein to his imagination, demanding tremendous speed and precision from the clarinettist.

“Having won many prizes at the Paris Conservatoire during the 1920s-1930s, Eugène Bozza went on to conduct the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and to become Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes. As a major figure on the classical music frontline, Bozza's compositions were well-received by audiences, Bucolic for Clarinet and Piano being no exception. This Bozza piece for Clarinet is expressive and virtuosic, displaying the entire range of the instrument, accompanied by rhythmic and spread chords in the Piano. As music educationalist, Paul Griffiths has written of Bozza's compositions, â€â€œhis works reveal melodic fluency, elegance of structure and a consistenly sensitive concern of instrumental capabilities.â€â€œ Bucolic for Clarinet and Piano is suitable to the advanced clarinetist's repertoire.â€.

Verdiana is a musical tribute to Giuseppe Verdi. It takes some of his most famous melodies and reimagines them in styles of Samba, Bossa Nova and Tango to produce a virtuosic showpiece for clarinet and orchestra. The work is structured in three movements. The titles of the movements do not only indicate from which operas the main melodies were taken, they also function as a hint to the styles in which the movements are written. The first movement, titled Il Sambatore, is a Samba based primarily on the melodic material from Verdi's Il Trovatore. The second one, Un Bossa in Maschera, is a slow Bossa Nova and consists of an aria from Un Ballo in Maschera. The third and the most virtuosic movement is called Don Tangoletto and derives most of its material from Don Carlos and Rigoletto. The piece exists in 4 versions: Solo clarinet with either full orchestra, string orchestra, string quartet or piano. This publication also includes an alto sax part that can be used instead of a clarinet.An Hommage to Giuseppe Verdi.
