Contrabass clarinet solos

At 8pm this Saturday (December 6), I'm playing contrabass clarinet with the MITWE. I have several solos in our arrangement of Bach's Art of the Fugue.

Details: MIT Wind Ensemble

Program:

  • Shostakovich, Festive Overture
  • Wagner, Trauersinfonie
  • Hasse, Pulling (for flute ensemble)
  • Brown, The Gift of the Modupe (for percussion ensemble)
  • Weill, music from Threepenny Opera (for saxophone ensemble)
  • Bernstein, America (for saxophone ensemble)
  • Bach, The Art of the Fugue, contrapunctus I, V, VIII, IX
  • Gould, Symphony No. 4 West Point, movement II

The Bach arrangement is as recently transcribed by Kenneth Amis. To the best of our knowledge, this has never been set for wind ensemble; we'll be performing it in a special configuration.

December 6, 8pm, Kresge Auditorium. $3 at the door.

Blah. Now I'm even more bummed that I can't come to this. Stupid, stupid West African Dance!
