Amer
ican composer and
woodwind performer Mike
Curtis is equally
comfortable in classical,
jazz, and ethnic
settings. He has toured
the world as a klezmer
clarinetist, played
bassoon with symphonies
and opera companies, and
recorded on sax with jazz
greats Charlie Rouse and
Anthony Braxton. His
compositions show the
influence of those
experiences and more. A
Week in Plasencia was
written following
Mike’s 2015 trip
to the International
Clarinet Association
festival in Madrid. After
a week in the City that
Never Sleeps, Mike sought
an unknown, tranquil,
provincial alternative.
Sunny Plasencia, a
riverside town at the
foot of the Sierra de
Gredos, came to reveal
itself as a magical font
of beauty, history, and
inspiration. This piece
exists in two versions,
for solo clarinet and
clarinet quartet. This
product page listing is
for the Solo Clarinet
version.
