Iain Matheson is a Scottish composer and musician, based in Edinburgh. He writes concert music in the classical tradition. Most of his work is based on some aspect of time, the medium in which music happens. It doesn’t represent programmatic ideas: instead it explores memory, and invites listeners to notice the ways in which time passes. This composition 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.

The Escenas Argentinas (Argentinian Scenes) join the flavours of the local rhythms with a virtuous writing and full of varied effects. One more time, the bass clarinet is a highly versatile instrument, not only in technical aspects, but also in the expressive roles that it adopts. Gentile makes the most of her very idiomatic writing creating a score with an original approach.
