Composed by Pierre Gabaye Sonatina is a piece for Bb Clarinet and Piano lasting 12 minutes. Divided into three distinctive parts this piece is rated as difficult and can be played by advanced players and above levels. The first part Allegro (4/4 tempo: 120-126) is really energetic as a start evolved shortly after between slower and faster sections. The second part slower (Largo) starts with the Piano on its own for two measures. This part is strongly influenced by Jazz and features long Clarinet lines supported by a rich Piano accompaniment. Finally the third part is really fast (Prestissimo) and displays a Piano more present slightly taking over the Clarinet. This really melodious piece is perfect to be played in contests or for a recital.

for Solo Bb Clarinet and Piano-Cette oeuvre en deux mouvements pour clarinette et orchestre fut commandée par Musica Reservata vof Belgique et est dédiée à Eddy Vanoosthuyse un bon ami et confrère du compositeur. Elle connut du succès à sa première mondiale le 10 décembre 2008à 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 à 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 à 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 à 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 à 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 prom

Concert Pieces from the Clarinet Method. Par BAERMANN CARL. The clarinet method op. 63 by Carl Baermann from 1867 is still a standard work in classical clarinet education today. The thoroughly revised new edition aims at reviewing the educational concept, which is still valid today, for modern lessons, adjusting the music and texts, and sensibly complementing the teaching contents. The editor who draws on many years of experience as a clarinettist in an orchestra and university lecturer of clarinet has succeeded in adapting the valuable teaching material to the requirements of today while maintaining the basic methodology. The result is a total of 7 volumes: Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (ED 21761, ED 21762) Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, with 2 CDs each (ED 21761-50, ED 21762-50): The CDs contain the piano accompaniment for the performance pieces, with and without clarinet Tune Book 1 and 2 (ED 21763, ED 21764): piano score of the method\'s performance pieces, with additional inserted clarinet part Daily Exercises (ED 21765): systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, complemented and published separately from the original method Due to trilingual nature of all editions (German, English, French), they can be used universally. About the revision: The musical text is based on the first edition of the method. Only a few differences concerning the articulation as well as some misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. The content of the text and the performance directions of the original were linguistically modernized and occasionally extended by further ideas from the teaching practice, such as concepts for warming up, breathing exercises, literature suggestions or tips for daily practising. Further additions of scale and triad studies in all major and minor keys make this method a comprehensive and thorough work of study which not only serves as teaching material for young and adult beginners, but is also a valuable compendium of scale exercises and studies for advanced musicians and is ideal for training velocity and dexterity. The tune books contain all performance pieces from the Clarinet Method Op. 63 by Carl Baermann for clarinet and piano. Thanks to the revised editions, they are now available as scores with inserted solo part for the first time. Thus, the popular performance pieces and studies can also be used separately from the textbook ? as an addition to the repertoire of music lessons or simply as a collection of attractive performance pieces for pupils and advanced clarinettists. As with the two volumes of the Clarinet Method, the musical text of the tune books is based on the first edition of the method, and only few differences concerning articulation as well as several misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. / Éducatif / Recueil / Clarinette en Bb et Piano

Duo Concertante Op. 351 by Darius Milhaud was composed in 1956 for the Paris Conservatoire Contest. Many influences can be recognised in this piece: from the Provence where he was born to Jazz and other melodies of South America. Lasting approximately 7 minutes Duo Concertante Op. 351 is started by a fanfare with a strong energy reminiscent of the South of France followed by a simple and moderate Clarinet partly joined by Piano chords. The initial theme is then repeated one last time for the finale. Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) was a French modernist composer and a teacher. He wasalso part of the Les Six and was strongly influenced by Jazz. His opus list ended at 443.

In addition to a busy performing career and a full-time teaching post at the University of Leicester the English composer James Walker produced at least 80 published works. His style is often witty and movements display clear thinking and unfussy construction. The first movement is somewhat reminiscent of early 20th-century neoclassical styles. The central slow movement must be legato throughout the almost constant metrical changes whereas the last movement has wit and drama.
