This is an updated edition of Francis Poulenc's 1962 work Sonata For Clarinet And Piano, edited by Millan Sachania. Featuring the full score and separate Clarinet part, this exclusive edition also includes a download card, giving you instant online access to demonstration and accompaniment tracks.Originally completed in 1962, Poulenc tragically passed away before it could be definitively engraved, leaving behind a work with a number of ambiguous notational marks that resulted in an incomplete first edition, published just a year later. A number of revisions have taken place, but this, expertly edited by Millan Sachania, aims to provide a playable, legible, precise and authoritative score that reflect closest Poulenc's intentions.This new edition includes accidentals that may have been intended by Poulenc within square brackets, as well as cautionary accidentals and the deletion of redundant accidentals. Other amendments like the redistribution of notes between the Piano staves, extending slurs so as to incorporate second or final tied notes, in contrast to the previous edition. At all points, Sachania has aimed to reproduce an authoritative and accurate score that is at once playable and a reflection of what Poulenc himself may have intended.What makes this edition of Sonata For Clarinet And Piano really special is the unique download card that provides exclusive online access to demonstration and accompaniment audio tracks. Professionally-recorded by renowned clarinettist Joy Farrall and pianist Huw Watkins, the demonstration track allows you to hear exactly how the piece as a whole should sound, before the independent Piano-only track lets you take the place of the clarinettist in your very own performance. This is a unique opportunity for clarinettists to learn from an authoritative score, and play along to a special backing track, with a work that's one of the finest for the instrument ever composed.For clarinettist fans of Francis Poulenc, lovers of Les Six, or just players with a proclivity for beautiful music, this edition of Sonata For Clarinet And Piano has been a long-time coming, and now it's available in this unique edition with accompanying download card. / Clarinette Et Piano

Par MANTOVANI BRUNO. La clarinette est l'instrument que j'ai le plus mis à l'honneur dans mon catalogue, de mon solo Bug jusqu'à Quasi lento où elle est un soliste permanent à l'intérieur d'un grand orchestre en passant par Mit ausdruck, concerto pour clarinette basse et orchestre. Depuis longtemps, j'éprouvais le désir de la confronter au piano dans une logique de sonate. Le centenaire de la disparition de Claude Debussy dont la Rhapsodie est un modèle du genre m'en a donné l'occasion. Waiting est un 'solo orchestré' dans la mesure où toute la matière pianistique semble déterminée par l'instrument à vent. Une longue mélodie mélismatique débute l'oeuvre, le piano entrant de façon très discrète par une note répétée comme un glas. Puis le piano agit en doublure de l'instrument soliste et enfin en relai, prolongeant la clarinette par des résonances ou des imitations. Malgré les nombreuses sections très rythmiques et virtuoses, le caractère monodique de l'ensemble et la permanence de tenues évoquant le bourdon médiéval créent un sentiment d'attente qui justifie le titre. Waiting est dédié à Romain Guyot et François Chaplin. / Contemporain / Répertoire / Clarinette et Piano
