Short Scene

for Clarinet Quartet

Instrumentation:

  • Bb Clarinet 1
  • Bb Clarinet 2
  • Bb Clarinet 3
  • Bb Bass Clarinet

Program Notes:

A short somewhat peaceful scene for four clarinets, featuring lots of ensemble playing, and a few solo moments for each of the parts. The melody is very linear and based on a descending Eb Major scale (F Major for Clarinets) and a slight sting of dissonance at the end adds a taste of mysterious to this overall accessible work for Clarinets.
