About the work ... Few American poems are as well known as The Road Not Taken. Robert Frost, the author, is an international icon, not unlike Pablo Picasso, Winston Churchill or Mark Twain in their own disciplines.The poem is full of contradictions and quirks of form and structure. Perhaps that illusiveness is part of the poem's intrigue. But beyond all of the literary devices that only a few scholars may fully appreciate, this poem has taken on a sort of fanfare for the common person credo - a challenge to individualism, stepping out on one's own, and breaking the mold out of sheer determination if nothing else. Frost connects to the core of the human spirit in just a few stanzas using the analogy of a fork in a road. The message super cedes geography, culture, race or creed. Rather, it is part of the DNA of most every person on the planet - the inner desire to feel empowered to create one's own destiny, to forge a road not taken, and ultimately in doing so, to make a difference. Rehearsal notes ... Research strongly suggests that there is a direct connection between the first rehearsal and the performance. First impressions last. I find it helpful to immediately lock three concepts into place - mechanics (notes/rhythms), text/phrasing (intent and motivation) and color (timbre). Performers need to think musically from the first reading forward (first impression). The cello is very much a collaborative instrument in this work, and should be located in front of the ensemble (not to side). Lastly, let the text speak. The simplest melodic lines are often the most exposed. Keep the voices clear and transparent, floating over the top in softer passages, and singing with vibrancy and forward focus throughout. Z. Randall Stroope A definitive recording was made by the New American Voices, with Randall conducting. This can be found on Spotify, YouTube, his website (www.zrstroope), and other social media. About the composer ... Z. Randall Stroope is an American composer and conductor. His composition teachers were Normand Lockwood and Cecil Effinger, both students of the Nadia Boulanger, the famous French teacher (and student of Gabriel Faure). He is the artistic director of two international summer music festivals, is an Honorary Member of the National Association of Italian Choral Directors, and has conducted in 25 countries. He has directed over 40 times at Carnegie Hall, and is a frequent conductor at other prestigious concert venues. Randall has 190 published works, and his music can be heard on Spotify, YouTube and other platforms, including his website (www.zrstroope.com).

Clarinete Sib y Cuarteto de Cuerda (Bb Clarinet and String Quartet)

SKU: BO.B.3429

Composed by Xavier Benguerel. Woodwind. Duration 20:00. Published by Editorial de Musica Boileau (BO.B.3429).

English comments: In 2003, I wrote Introspeccion for solo clarinet and, although I had already used the clarinet many years ago (in 1963 with a Duo for clarinet and piano), I felt the need to return to that instrument again: malleable, dynamic, with a considerable tessitura and an expressive and effective timbre both in pianissimo and fortissimo.

Apart from the Piano concerto I wrote in 2003, over the last four years I have preferred to work with chamber music. In 2005 I used the clarinet again, this time alongside the classic string quartet, a combination that has always caught my attention. So this is how the Quinteto de la Sala de Llevant arose, as a work designed in a single tempo that I think follows along the same lines marked by my compositions in recent years, in the sense that all superfluous elements are removed to leave a strict musical discourse that I hope can be considered markedly expressive.

The Quinteto de la Sala de Llevant was first performed on 29 June 2005 at the Sala de Llevant in the Library of Catalonia, when I loaned my musical archives to this institution. It was played by Josep Fuster (to whom the work is dedicated) on the clarinet and the Glinka Quartet (Ala Voronkova, Guerassim Voronkov, violins, Bernat Bofarull, viola, Nabi Cabestany).

Comentarios del Espanol: En el ano 2003, escribo Introspeccion para clarinete solo y, si bien ya habia usado el clarinete hace muchos anos (en 1963 con un Duo para clarinete y piano) senti la necesidad de volver al mismo instrumento: ductil, agil, de una tesitura considerable y de un timbre expresivo y eficaz tanto en el pianissimo como en el fortisimo.

Exceptua ndo el Concierto para piano del 2003, en estos ultimos cuatro anos he trabajado preferentemente la musica de camara. En el 2005 vuelvo a usar el clarinete, ahora junto al clasico cuarteto de cuerda, conjuncion que siempre me habia llamado la atencion. Nace, pues, el Quinteto de la Sala de Llevant, obra concebida en un solo tiempo y que creo que continua con la linea marcada por el autor durante estos ultimos anos, en el sentido de eliminar todo elemento superfluo para seguir un discurso musical riguroso y que querria marcadamente expresivo.

El estreno del Quinteto de la Sala de Llevant tuvo lugar el 29 de junio del 2005 en la Sala de Llevant de la Biblioteca de Catalunya, en ocasion de la cesion de mi archivo musical a esta misma institucion. Josep Fuster (a quien la obra esta dedicada), clarinete, y el Cuarteto Glinka (Ala Voronkova, Guerassim Voronkov, violines, Bernat Bofarull, viola, Nabi Cabestany) fueron sus interpretes.
