Aleksandar Obradovic's Mikro-sonata is a piece that unfortunately disappeared from the clarinet repertoire when it went out of print, but is now back in a new edition. Its first two movements are early explorations of the potential of multi-phonics and other extended techniques for clarinet. The fanciful, jazz-inspired Praeludium draws the listener in and provides a stark contrast for the haunting tones of the Arietta that follows. A quirky, but fun Fughetta rounds out the composition, challenging the clarinetist to highlight a theme that would normally be found in imitation, but in this case is presented by a solo instrument. Obradovic, perhaps the most prolific and respected twentieth-century Serbian composer, dedicated both this work and a previously composed clarinet concerto to his countryman Milenko Stefanovic, who first recorded each of them.

Antony Clare was born in Nottingham in 1964. He read music at York University and has subsequently combined private instrumental teaching with a range of performing activities. He has formed several successful partnerships with local musicians, focusing on the contemporary music repertoire. In addition to being one half of SCAW (with Sarah Watts, bass clarinet), he particularly enjoys performing 20th century English song repertoire and playing chamber music for piano and wind as pianist with the Hough Ensemble. His composition 'Sybil' was written for bass clarinet soloist Sarah Watts, who did extensive research on bass clarinet multiphonics. This piece is a great illustration on the integration of multiphonics in contemporary music.

Composer, pianist and conductor Kirmo Lintinen is equally at home in jazz as in the world of classical music. Since the turn of the millennium, his main job has specifically been composing concert music. Stylistically, he has found his biggest inspiration in the Baroque and in early 20th-century Neoclassicism. He composed Rieha (Frolic) as a commission from the Crusell Music Festival in Uusikaupunki, Finland, as the obligatory piece for its international clarinet competition, and it was premiered by the semi-finalists in July 2009. The first part of Rieha is dominated by spurting arpeggios, trills and changing tempos. Following this impulsive opening is a brief respite, after which the piano and clarinet begin competing, tossing each other quick, accented semiquaver figures. The rhythm soon becomes syncopated and the piece enters the longest section, a sort of hypertuned, lurching ragtime. The closing section recalls all the work's motifs before burning itself out and vanishing like smoke. Rieha is a consummate virtuoso piece demanding nimble fingers, sharp articulation and a command of tone in all the clarinet's registers. The piano is more than just an accompanying instrument; it is an equal partner. The biggest challenge for the players is synchronising their parts: the changing tempos and metres, and the alternation of quick figures keep the performers on their toes and the audience alert.

The 40 Studies compiled by Cyrille Rose are still today one of the most used by clarinetists. Adapting major violin studies of the 18th and 19th century, Rose made an excellent choice of technical and expressive materials. He freely changed the tone, articulations and note ranges to adapt as much as possible to mechanical and physiological specificities of the clarinet. Nevertheless, each study is a challenge that must be overcome by a slow and patient work which, if properly structured, develops and strengthens greatly the capacity of the clarinetist. In this new edition, the references of original studies are provided, supplemented by a brief biography of their authors. Finally, you will find, at the end of the book some ways of working. ; Instruments: Solo Clarinet; Difficuly Level: Grade 3.
