The heat of the day ebbs away as the sun slowly dips from view over the western horizon. A dazzling display of warm hues, vibrant yellows, glowing oranges and burning reds, lights up the evening before cooling to calm blues, dark, cool purples andfinally the black of night. Such are the unforgettable sunsets that inspired Jan de Haan to write this piece.De hitte van overdag ebt weg terwijl de zon in het westen langzaam achter de horizon verdwijnt. Een schitterend schouwspel van warme schakeringen - levendig geel, gloedvol oranje en vurig rood - verlicht nog even de avond, waarna koele kleuren volgenmet serene tinten blauw, donkere nuances van paars en ten slotte het zwart van de nacht. Fraaie zonsondergangen als deze vormden voor Jan de Haan de inspiratie tot het schrijven van dit sfeervolle werk voor blaasinstrument en piano.Die Hitze des Tages verebbt, während die Sonne langsam am westlichen Horizont versinkt. Ein schillernder Reigen warmer Farben aus pulsierendem Gelb, glĂÂĽhendem Orange und brennendem Rot erhellt den Abendhimmel, bevor ruhige Blautöne, kĂÂĽhle Lilaschattierungen und schlieĂŸlich die Schwärze der Nacht AbkĂÂĽhlung bringen. Solcheunvergesslichen Sonnenuntergänge inspirieren Jan de Haan zur Komposition dieses StĂÂĽckes fĂÂĽr diverse Blasinstrumente und Klavierbegleitungen. La chaleur de la journĂ©e s’attĂ©nue peu peu alors que le soleil plonge lentement derrière l’horizon. Un Ă©blouissant spectacle met en scène des jaunes vibrants, des oranges lumineux et des rouges br lants qui illuminent le dĂ©but de soirĂ©e alors quedĂ©j , apparaissent les premières nuances bleutĂ©es et pourpres, synonymes de fraĂ®cheur. Ces inoubliables couchers de soleil ont inspirĂ© Jan de Haan lorsqu’il a composĂ© cette pièce pour instrument vent diverses et piano.Il calore del giorno si stempera mentre il sole scompare lentamente all`orizzonte. Una brillante combinazione di calde tonalit di giallo vibrante, arancio luccicante e rosso incandescente riscalda la sera. Colori che lasciano il passo a un blu cherilassa, a rinfrescanti tonalit del viola, e infine al nero della notte. Questi sono i tramonti indimenticabili che hanno ispirato Jan de Haan nel scirvere questo brano per diversi strumenti a fiati e pianoforte.

Close Encounters for Clarinet in B flat & Piano draws on historic themes connected to the medieval closes (also know as wynds or vennels) of the Scottish burgh town of Lanark, situated in the rural Clyde Valley. Often named after prominent resident business owners, these otherwise unremarkable narrow lanes are given life by the records of their occupiers or through local tales.Aside from the more self explanatory titles, â€Luminare’ describes the astronomical interests of electrical pioneer David Hunter; â€Jumbo Jive’ relates to the legend of an inebriated circus elephant escapee who became stuck in the arch of Wide Close; â€Amber Sky’ connects the India Ale trade of Brewery Close with an occasional, evocative dusk light that cloaks the town before sunset.Close Encounters comprises five fascinating and contrasted short movements each set within its own very vivid sound world. The colourful harmonic language is drawn from a number of musical influences including flavours of Jazz, the silver screen and the French impressionists, all adding up to music that is both engaging to play and to listen to. The five movements are set at a comfortable technical level for the intermediate to advanced clarinettist, cover the entire range of the instrument, and the set would make for an intriguing addition to any clarinet recital.

Summer Solstice is a 19-minute concerto in three movements, composed for solo clarinet with a colorfully-textured string orchestra. The piano reduction is comfortably voiced for recital use. Dorff's joy in writing for his own instrument is readily heard in the warm cantabile writing and gracefully idiomatic passagework. Drawing inspiration from the elegance of Mozart's concerto and the rhythmic grit of Copland's, Dorff's concerto is a true hybrid of jazz-inspired language with classical form and counterpoint. The Philadelphia Inquirer has written, Summer Solstice is light without being insubstantial, melodic without being obvious. It has an invariably American sound. Orchestral score and parts are available on rental. Full score is also available for sale as study score (416-41604) or large score (416-41604L)._____________________________________Text from the scanned back cover:Summer Solstice (Concerto for Clarinet and Strings)The Philadelphia Inquirer has written “Summer Solstice is light without being insubstantial, melodic without being obvious.

The Swiss-born clarinet virtuoso Matthias Muller is one of the most versatile and inspiring clarinet players and composers of his generation. This concerto is modelled on classical forms and deploys an aesthetic that is close to the Second Age of Modernism, which does not seek renewal in external appearance but looks for own characteristic ways in the internal structure. The harmony is based on a specific chord structure, exposed in the first part and set to shape in the next parts. The technical Clarity seeks contrasts in motivic and thematic processing of the material and in pronounced variations. This concerto has been recorded by the composer on the NEOS label (20904).
