Lay Down Your Head .... Solo Clarinet and Piano

He's a "moody" work ... for a contemplative day in another time.

Wow this is very beautiful and lyrical. I loved the modulation around 1:40. I also love how the piano accompanies the clarinet!

Very nice. A well-crafted accompaniment that asserts itself from time to time (example, bars 31-34). Lyrical, slightly sad clarinet theme, definitely contemplative.

All holds together well.

Great.

Thanks for the review.  I am so pleased you enjoyed the work! 😇

Very nice piece.

I only have an observation. The piano part sounds more "classical" (pre-romantic) because que bars are strongly defined or marked, while the clarinet floats in a mor lyric and romantic way. I don't know it is because romantic piano writing is more complicated... althogh yoy did a good work with it, anyway.

First thanks for listening.  I took another look at the piano part and additional legato markings/slurs would definitely help soften the accompaniment.
