Cliffhanger

Saturday afternoon

the familiar story of the
damsel in distress who is
tied up to the train
tracks as a train is
approaching.The opening
of the piece sets the
scene with danger and
desperation. By m. 6, our
hero is making his way on
horseback to rescue the
fair maiden. This main
melody is developed and
passed around the
ensemble until m. 36, at
which point despair sets
in. The music is rich
with romantic harmonies
and inner lines. Be sure
to bring out these inner
lines to add to the
passion and drama of the
moment. It continues to
build until a thunderous
arrival at m. 49. From
there we return to our
hero, who is now getting
close to the train tracks
to save the fair maiden.
The tension becomes the
highest at m. 61, when we
are still not sure if our
hero will make it in
time. But alas, at m. 68
he swoops in to save the
day and rescue the fair
maiden. Of course, they
live happily ever
after.My hope is that
your ensemble will have
some fun with this style
of music. It was adapted
from an arrangement I
wrote for the new pipe
organ at the Walk Disney
Concert Hall in Los
Angeles. They wanted some
scary train music to show
children how the organ
was used back before
movies had sound. Strings
provide a heightened
sense of drama with this
genre of music.

IApart from
some of his Sonatinas,
Opus 36, Clementi's life
and music are hardly
known to the piano
teachers and students of
today. For example, in
addition to the above
mentioned Sonatinas,
Clementi wrote sixty
sonatas for the piano,
many of them unjustly
neglected, although his
friend Beethoven regarded
some of them very highly.
Clementi also wrote
symphonies (some of which
he arranged as piano
sonatas), a substantial
number of waltzes and
other dances for the
piano as well as sonatas
and sonatinas for piano
four-hands.In addition to
composing, Clementi was a
much sought after piano
teacher, and included
among his students John
Field (Father of the
'Nocturne'), and
Meyerbeer.In his later
years, Clementi became a
very successful music
publisher, publishing
among other works the
first English edition of
Beethoven's Violin
Concerto, in the great
composer's own
arrangement for the
piano, as well as some of
his string quartets.
Clementi was also one of
the first English piano
manufacturers to make
pianos with a metal frame
and string them with
wire.The Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 was one of
six such works Clementi
wrote in 1797. He must
have been partial to
these little pieces (for
which he also provided
the fingerings), since
they were reissued
(without the fingering)
by the composer shortly
after 1801. About 1820,
he issued ''the sixth
edition, with
considerable improvements
by the author;· with
fingerings added and
several minor changes,
among which were that
many of them were written
an octave higher.IIIt has
often been said,
generally by those
unhampered by the facts,
that composers of the
past (and, dare we add,
the present?), usually
handled their financial
affairs with their public
and publishers with a
poor sense of business
acumen or common sense.
As a result they
frequently found
themselves in financial
straits.Contrary to
popular opinion, this was
the exception rather than
the rule. With the
exception of Mozart and
perhaps a few other
composers, the majority
of composers then, as
now, were quite
successful in their
dealings with the public
and their publishers, as
the following examples
will show.It was not
unusual for 18th- and
19th-century composers to
arrange some of their
more popular compositions
for different
combinations of
instruments in order to
increase their
availability to a larger
music-playing public.
Telemann, in the
introduction to his
seventy-two cantatas for
solo voice and one melody
instrument (flute, oboe
or violin, with the usual
continua) Der Harmonische
Gottesdienst, tor
example, suggests that if
a singer is not available
to perform a cantata the
voice part could be
played by another
instrument. And in the
introduction to his Six
Concertos and Six Suites
for flute, violin and
continua, he named four
different instrumental
combinations that could
perform these pieces, and
actually wrote out the
notes for the different
possibilities. Bach
arranged his violin
concertos for keyboard,
and Beethoven not only
arranged his Piano Sonata
in E Major, Opus 14, No.
1 for string quartet, he
also transposed it to the
key of F. Brahm's
well-known Quintet in F
Minor for piano and
strings was his own
arrangement of his
earlier sonata for two
pianos, also in F
Minor.IIIWe come now to
Clementi. It is well
known that some of his
sixty piano sonatas were
his own arrangements of
some of his lost
symphonies, and that some
of his rondos for piano
four-hands were
originally the last
movements of his solo
sonatas or piano trios.In
order to make the first
movement of his
delightful Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 accessible
to young string players,
I have followed the
example established by
the composer himself by
arranging and transposing
one of his piano
compositions from one
medium (the piano) to
another. (string
instruments). In order to
simplify the work for
young string players, in
the process of adapting
it to the new medium it
was necessary to
transpose it from the
original key of C to G,
thereby doing away with
some of the difficulties
they would have
encountered in the
original key. The first
violin and cello parts
are similar to the right-
and left-hand parts of
the original piano
version. The few changes
I have made in these
parts have been for the
convenience of the string
players, but in no way do
they change the nature of
the music.Since the
original implied a
harmonic framework in
many places, I have added
a second violin and viola
part in such a way that
they not only have
interesting music to
play, but also fill in
some of the implied
harmony without in any
way detracting from the
composition's musical
value. Occasionally, it
has been necessary to
raise or lower a few
passages an octave or to
modify others slightly to
make them more accessible
for young players.It is
hoped that the musical
value of the composition
has not been too
compromised, and that
students and teachers
will come to enjoy this
little piece in its new
setting as much as
pianists have in the
original one. This
arrangement may also be
performed by a solo
string quartet. When
performed by a string
orchestra, the double
bass part may be
omitted.- Douglas

Larry Clark
does it again with this
tuneful new feel good
piece. You and your
students will walk away
humming this tune. There
is even a nice
contrasting lyrical
middle section in the
relative minor to break
up the
piece. Solstice: one
of two times in the year
when the sun is at its
greatest distancefrom the
celestial equator.A
solstice happens at the
mid-point of summer,
about June 21, and the
midpoint of winter, about
December 22. Each of
those times of year is
delightful. The carefree
days of summer have just
begun around June 21,
when the mind wanders to
long bike rides or walks
on the beach. During the
winter solstice the mind
is filled with all of the
delights that the holiday
season has to offer.
Either way, a solstice is
a joyous and fun filled
time of year, and this
piece is intended to
bring to mind some of
these wonderful times.
The main theme should be
performed in a light
carefree manner, which is
then contrasted by the
more lyrical and
passionate middle
section.As with all of my
pieces for younger
students, the tempo
indicated is merely a
guide. Adjust the tempo
to fit the needs of your
students. It has been my
pleasure to have the
opportunity to write this
piece. I hope you and
your students enjoy it
and find it useful for
your program.

This
emotional and reflective
work paints a stunning
picture of the holiday
season as seen through
the eyes of a homeless
person on a street
corner. The music relies
heavily on a
juxtaposition of the
Ukrainian Bell Carol and
Greensleeves, painting a
picture of a lonely
person who is eventually
joined by others.
Ultimately, a quartet
performs in dramatic
fashion before switching
to a final duet, leaving
the homeless person with
a granted wish - company.
A stunning and unique
work that brings
incredible awareness to
the holidays and the true
spirit of giving.
