Par JOLAS BETSY. La place que Betsy Jolas s?accorde elle-même dans le paysage de la musique contemporaine est celle de « l?indépendance » et de la « différence ». Cette position s?est clairement imposée dans les années 1960, lorsque sa vie créatrice est enfin devenue publique. Inflexible dans son choix marginal, elle a cependant côtoyé activement, aux lendemains de la guerre, le courant sériel, sans jamais vraiment y adhérer. Elle s?est de même intéressée aux musiques extra-européennes, américaines et dites « non savantes » ? de Bali au jazz ?, comme également, même si d?assez loin, aux recherches électro-acoustiques, notamment pour son opéra Schliemann (1983-1993)./ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière et Clarinette Basse

Street-Wise is a fantastic book which contains nine jazzy duets for Flute and Clarinet composed by Terry Kenny. These original pieces for two are quite varied in style with Be-bop rock groove jazz and blues but are all most enjoyable to play together. Suitable for players working anywhere between grades 3 and 5 standard.
