Small Ensemble A Clarinet,Cello,Viola,Violin - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1035467 Composed by Jill Elliott. 20th Century,Classical,Contemporary,Holiday. Score and parts. 22 pages. Daffiddle Music #640671. Published by Daffiddle Music (A0.1035467). Three light-hearted short pieces for clarinet and string quartet, evoking the genteel surroundings of a tea-room in the first half of the twentieth century. A group of friends, all amateurs, sight read the whole suite with great enjoyment and only one break (to restart the third movement.) Tea Room Quintet is ideal material to play in the background at social gatherings such as garden parties, wedding anniversaries and art exhibitions. The audio sample is of part of the third movement, which was particularly enjoyed by a recent audience. I am offering the score separately from the set of parts, to allow ensembles to choose how much to purchase. The pdfs include some blank pages, to ensure correct page turns if you are printing booklets.

Program note.<br> Clarinet Quintet, opus 155 is the fourth work I have written for Nancy Braithwaite. The first one was written on the occasion of her sister’s wedding in Vermont. Nancy premiered the solo clarinet piece “Trinca di Chôro” during the wedding ceremony. The second work was “Yo Picasso” (2007) for clarinet, viola, cello and piano. The work was tailor-made for the Arto Ensemble which consisted of two married couples: Oane (piano) and Nancy (clarinet), and Prunella (viola) and Guus (cello). The third work was “Octet in D, opus 144” (2012) scored for clarinet, horn, bassoon, string quartet and double bass. Nancy and her Dutch colleagues premiered the work in a program with the Schubert Octet in Bunnik, a small village west of Utrecht in the Netherlands.Many great composers have tackled the clarinet quintet, most notable Mozart and Brahms.<br> My Quintet is somewhat different in that there are a lot of jazz elements and something new that I have not tackled before: polymeter.<br> <br> Clarinet Quintet, opus 155 is in seven movements.<br> <br> I. Largo<br> II. Allegro<br> III. Interlude 1 … Presto<br> IV. Adagio<br> V. Reprise … a bit faster than before!<br> VI. Interlude 2 … Adagio<br> VII. Allegro con moto<br> <br> The work begins with a clarinet meditation over pianissimo string chords. The music is very static … not unlike the sacred music of Arvo Pärt. This is followed by an allegro that is in 12/8 featuring a pizzicato jazzy bass figure played by the cello. The third movement is my experiment in polymeter. The ostinato pattern is grouped in a metrical scheme of 4, 3, 4 and 5; but the octave melody in the clarinet and first violin unfolds in standard duple meter of 4. The middle fourth movement is an adagio. This is an example of what I love about music, a soaring melody above slow haunting chords. A reprise of the jazzy Interlude 1 comes next, but in a slightly different guise with new elements, both melodically and harmonically.Interlude 2 is reminiscent of the meditative music of the first movement, but again it is quite different in mood and atmosphere.The finale is another experiment in polymeter. At first the metrical scheme is in a pattern of 4, 3, 4, 3, 2, 3 and 2. But eventually the meters get all scrambled up. Have fun trying to count. You’ll get lost! Above the “oom-pah oom-pah” accompaniment, the clarinet soars like a flying bird … diving, hovering, dipping and swooping!!!<br> <br> ENJOY!!!<br> <br> Audio link.
