Thank-you for your detailed comments Mike (psych. ward???).

Premiere will be Wednesday, June 4th 2008. The clarinetist is François Lebrun, who will be accompanied at the piano by Michael Baskin.

The programme is as follows:
my Sonata
Michael Baskin: Impressions pour clarinette basse (premiere)

intermission
Léo Weiner: Peregi Verbunk
Milton Barnes: Jewish Dances
Claude Debussy: Petite Pièce
Alan Belkin: Sonate pour clarinette (premiere)


Much of the same concert programme will possibly be repeated in late August with a different clarinetist, and almost definately again in October. My librarian/researcher and I are heading off tomorrow to do some research on 18th and 19th century Canadian music for clarinet, so I may have more news on the subsequant concerts' programmes later this week.

To those who enjoyed this piece, thank-you.
To those who did not, well, (phblllllllllt!)

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
