B-Flat Clarinet Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1404050 By Artie Shaw. By Artie Shaw. Arranged by Edited Robert C. Olivia. Jazz. Individual part. 17 pages. Robert C. Olivia #987223. Published by Robert C. Olivia (A0.1404050). This edition of the solo clarinet part of the Artie Shaw Concerto for Clarinet is a note for note transcription of what Shaw recorded on the record version and in the motion picture.Shaw’s solos as played in both the motion picture and record version are represented in great detail with the film solo shown as ossia so the player can view and choose which they might prefer to play. As many techniques as possible are carefully detailed to show ornaments, slurs, accents etc.The companion parts available here for big band and strings restores many elements missing in other versions available.  The strings here are restored to the original voicings so  important to the style of the classic sound of the period. The solos are transcribed note for note as played by greats such as Billy Butterfield on Trumpet, Johnny Guarnieri on Piano, Les Robinson on Alto Sax, Jerry Jerome on Tenor Sax, Vernon “Brownie†Brown on Trombone. There is an entire sax riff that was extemporaneously improvised during the session that is missing entirely in other published versions. The instrumentation is also restored to only the instruments that were used in Shaw’s recordings. There are many details that help the ease of performability of the genre and gesture of jazz idiom. Lastly, the intention is that this should be performed with saxophones. However, there are optional parts for clarinets and bassoons that can be used only if saxes are not available. I have performed from this solo part many times and I hope others will do so as well. I give great thanks to several people, who over the course of my career, taught me many skills that resulted in this. Special thanks to my teachers Bob Wilber, Leon Russianoff & Tom Martin and Marty Burlingame & JoAnn and Artie Kane.

Clarinet Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1018879 Composed by Benjamin Harry Sajo. Contemporary. Individual part. 3 pages. Benjamin Sajo #6056077. Published by Benjamin Sajo (A0.1018879). Programme Notes: Icarus Also Flew takes its title from the first line of the poem Failing and Flying by Jack Gilbert. He is referring to the classical myth of Daedalus and Icarus, an inventive father and son who bravely escape from their imprisonment in a tower by collecting the disposed feathers of seabirds, then fashion wings out of them and fly away. While the story is often treated as a morality tale--listen to your elders, don’t get cocky like the young man, Icarus, who, in such an understandable state of elation, ascended too close to the sun thus causing the wings to melt and his tumbling to his Mediterranean death--what Jack Gilbert reminds us is how regardless of one’s failure, the sheer transcendental experience of mortal flight remains glorious and unforgettable. Icarus’s fall was not into a legacy of disdain and oblivion, but in truth, he had come to the end of his triumph. This piece was the first of a series I composed during the Covid-19 quarantine conditions of 2020, to serve as potential contemporary preludes for each of Ludwig van Beethoven’s nine symphonies--his two hundred and fiftieth anniversary was this year!--though they can all stand on their own on any program. The connection, in this case, is with his celebrated fifth symphony in C minor--the Fate symphony, as it is commonly known. I’ll let the listener find their own connections.About the Composer:Benjamin Sajo (b. 1988) is a Canadian composer of contemporary classical music, as well as an educator. Since developing a fiercely independent creative voice upon the completion of his studies at Western (2010) and McGill Universities (2013), he continues to find inspiration from the intersection of mythology, art, and nature upon the contemporary human experience. In 2019, he released his premiere album of original music, The Great War Sextet: Canadian War Poetry with Trombone & Strings, with support from the Ontario Arts Council. He is a member of SOCAN and the League of Canadian Composers.

B-Flat Clarinet Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1247317 Composed by Everardo GarcÃa Vargas. Chamber,Classical,Holiday,Multicultural,Traditional,World. Individual part. 9 pages. Everardo GarcÃa Vargas #841935. Published by Everardo GarcÃa Vargas (A0.1247317). Fusión Mixe - Para Clarinete Solo en BbLa obra “Fusión Mixe†es una creación única e innovadora que combina elementos de la música tradicional de la región mixe con ritmos, armonÃas y melodÃas contrapuntÃsticas contemporáneas y prehispánicas. Esta fusión se inspira en los motivos rÃtmicos y melódicos de la pieza musical ceremonial “Sones y Jarabes Mixes†del reconocido compositor Rito Marcelino Rovirosa. En “Fusión Mixe†se reflejan las ricas tradiciones y costumbres de la región mixe, incluyendo ceremonias y ritos en honor a la madre naturaleza y al rey “Konk ëy†(rey bueno). También se plasman experiencias vividas en el pueblo y en la región mixe, donde aún se conserva y se habla la lengua mixe con mucho orgullo. Haber nacido en la comunidad de Tlahuitoltepec Mixe, Oaxaca, México, es un privilegio que me permite una conexión profunda con estas raÃces culturales.La obra musical ceremonial “Sones y Jarabes Mixesâ€, compuesta por Rito Marcelino Rovirosa, es ampliamente reconocida como uno de los himnos representativos de la región Mixe. Además de ser una pieza musical, también es un baile que forma parte integral de la cultura Mixe del estado de Oaxaca, México. El mismo autor también compuso un himno especÃfico para la región titulado “Himno Mixeâ€. En la tradición y costumbres de esta región, se realizan ceremonias y ritos para agradecer o pedir a las potencias naturales como el rayo, el viento, el agua, el sol, la montaña, la madre tierra y al rey “Konk ëy†(rey bueno), quien representa el vÃnculo con lo sagrado. Estas ceremonias pueden tener como objetivo tener una buena cosecha, alejar un mal sobrenatural, mejorar las condiciones de vida, tener abundancia económica o un buen año. Durante estas ceremonias se ofrendan bebidas como tepache y mezcal, alimentos y música, incluyendo sones y jarabes para bailar.

Clarinet and piano - advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q16292 Eight Pieces for Clarinet and Piano. Composed by Charles Koechlin. Arranged by Robert Orledge. This edition: Sheet music. Clarinet Library. Downloadable. Op. 140. Schott Music - Digital #Q16292. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q16292). German • English • French.Endlich ist die Musik von Charles Koechlin kein Geheimtipp mehr, sondern wird sowohl für den Konzertsaal als auch die CD entdeckt! Mit unserer Ausgabe präsentieren wir nun eine weithin noch unbekannte Facette seines Schaffens. Denn kaum jemand weiß, dass sich Koechlin in bereits fortgeschrittenem Alter dem Film zuwandte. Obwohl Koechlin bewusst war, dass keine Aussicht auf filmische Umsetzung bestand, entwarf er sogar ein Filmszenario in 20 Szenen, in dem er selbst in einer Doppelrolle erscheinen sollte! Im Alter von 66 Jahren sah er in einem Pariser Filmtheater die Schauspielerin Lilian Harvey als Prinzessin Marie-Christine in Princesse à vos ordres. Er war so verzaubert, dass er für sie die kleinen Stücke Le Portrait de Daisy Hamilton komponierte – hinreißende Miniaturen, die nicht als Filmmusik geschrieben, sondern durch Filmerlebnisse ausgelöst wurden. Von den unvollendet gebliebenen, auf zwei bis vier Linien notierten Kompositionen Le Portrait de Daisy Hamilton sind bei Schott bereits drei Hefte erschienen, nun publizieren wir zwei Bände mit je acht Stücken für Flöte und Klavier bzw. für Klarinette und Klavier. Zwei weitere Hefte (11 Stücke für Klavier und Streichquartett und 10 Stücke für Streichsextett) werden noch folgen. Mit den insgesamt sieben geplanten Heften werden Charles Koechlins letzte noch unveröffentlichte Werke aus dem Umfeld des Films endlich für die Nachwelt zugänglich.

Clarinet Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1018927 Composed by Benjamin Harry Sajo. 20th Century,Contemporary. Individual part. 5 pages. Benjamin Sajo #6072957. Published by Benjamin Sajo (A0.1018927). Fugue: Wear Pearls and Smile is, on the outset, a fast, rambunctious adventure for many voices playing at the same time. It was conceived as a pairing for the equally vivacious second symphony of Ludwig van Beethoven–his 250th birthday is this year–but can stand on its own as one of my hardest, most challenging works to cook up.This piece is dedicated to those forced to appear positive when internally they’re falling apart. The title is inspired by a quote that’s been with me for a while, Why is it that men can be bastards and women must wear pearls and smile? by Lynn Hecht Schafren, the celebrated American jurist famous for campaigning for gender equity in courts. I’m taking the quote out of its initial context, but the power of that quote, for me, exemplifies how hard it is to maintain a sense of emotional decorum and dignity when you’re authentically a hot mess. And what’s more of a musical hot mess than a fugue?There are two realities to this piece. I’ll quote Dmitri Shostakovich, from his autobiography: The rejoicing is forced, created under threat, […] It’s as if someone were beating you with a stick and saying, ‘Your business is rejoicing, your business is rejoicing,’ and you rise, shaky, and go marching off, muttering ‘Our business is rejoicing, our business is rejoicing.’ On the one hand, it is insincere happiness, cloying perhaps. But the other truth, I’ll quote Oscar Hammerstein II, from The King and I: While shivering in my shoes / I strike a careless pose / And whistle a happy tune / And no one ever knows, / I'm afraid. I forced myself, against all impulses of my current being, to forge happiness. This piece, with its origin being a mental puzzle (fugues are puzzles), it became a construct where I could lift myself up and regain a sense of purpose. Therefore, it is invented–out of a literal need to survive–pure, genuine happiness.Future Performances: If you are interested in performing this work, please e-mail me.ABOUT THE COMPOSER: Benjamin Sajo (b. 1988) is a Canadian composer of contemporary classical music, as well as an educator.

Since developing a fiercely independent creative voice upon the completion of his studies at Western (2010) and McGill Universities (2013), he continues to find inspiration from the intersection of mythology, art, and nature upon the contemporary human experience. In 2019, he released his premiere album of original music, The Great War Sextet: Canadian War Poetry with Trombone & Strings , with support from the Ontario Arts Council. He is a member of SOCAN and the League of Canadian Composers.
