Born
in Switzerland, Jean
Xavier Lefevre
(1763-1829) was a
sought-after clarinetist
and one of the first
clarinet professors at
the Paris Conservatory.
He is still known today
for his Clarinet School
(1802), which became a
standard work in France
and beyond. From this
textbook comes the
popular Sonata no. 1 with
its catchy melody that
encourages light
playfulness. The piece is
graded hereas level 2.
Also available: Sonata
No. 2 g minor (SE 1039).
Lefevre wrote the piece
originally for the then
common C-Clarinet. For
use in the classroom,
this edition omits the
transposition ofthe
clarinet part into the B
tuning. The accompanying
bass voice of the
original was transferred
to the piano and
supplemented with some
suggestions on dynamics
and articulation. Hints
and tips from publisher
Rudolf Mauz (Die
frohliche Klarinette)
offer students assistance
in the preparation of the
work. This edition is
part of the Schott
Student Edition series,
which offers a diverse
repertoire of lessons,
concerts and exams of
varying degrees of
difficulty (from easy to
difficult). To this end
Schott continues to
publish popular standard
works from music history
in a modern and clear
edition. For many pieces
an audio file of the
piano accompaniment is
available for
download.
