September 21, 2025Sep 21 Hello @dhslamas! Glad to see that your really old pieces still make it to completion! I don't usually like pieces for a solo instrument because it's easy for them to degenerate into exercise-y shows of skill over actual musical content. But this is very interesting rhythmically, harmonically and melodically! The performance of course brings much to the table - did you play this yourself? Great job to whoever played it! It would be really interesting to try and orchestrate this little etude in a Stavinsky-style! What competition was this written for? Well done and thanks for sharing!
September 21, 2025Sep 21 Author Thank you for your feedback @PeterthePapercomPoser! The clarinetist who played it is named Jacob Wolf. He only made a home recording; Unfortunately, the piece was never premiered in any recital or concert. I don't remember which competition I entered this piece in, but I'm sure it didn't win any awards :).
