"Interesting Piece No.1" for Bb Clarinet and Piano

Interesting Piece No.1

for the Bb Clarinet and Piano

- Written in Concert C+

- Already transposed for live performance

- Dynamics not written

- About One minute and Thirty seconds.

NOTES:

This piece was written for my brother as a "joke" kind of gift. I think that some of the notation might be a tad "off", but this was just a quick little composition. ALSO, Noteworthy does NOT have broken chord symbols (so please put up with my leading grace-notes)

My dearest apologies to the Pianist for such a confusing part. Even more dear apologies to the audience that may be subject to this auditory abuse.

Do what you wish with this piece. I do not value it all that much.

You call it a "joke" and "auditory abuse;" I say there's some interesting stuff here. The whimsical theme in 5-6 makes the piece--admittedly there's no real move to a contrasting section (not that you need one; it's your call)--but hey: if there was more stuff of that calibre here I'd say you'd be on your way to having more than a musical blague. Keep up the creative use of tonality; I've got to crawl out of my shell more in that department ;). Oh--and thanks for your compliment on the 1st mvt. of Epistrophe (http://www.youngcomposers.com/forum/epistrophe-sonata-cello-piano-mvt-1-pesante-lento-con-tristezza-13249.html).

Post some more stuff!

Do you really intend for the clarinetist to tongue every note?

Nah. That's my lack of motivation.

I suppose it would be up to the performer to put in expression, lyric, and whatever else. Really, it would be better if I was a tad more serious about this one... :whistling:
