Notes for Clarinetists: A Guide to the Repertoire offers important
historical and analytical information about thirty-five of the
best-known pieces written for the instrument. Numerous contextual
and theoretical insights make it an essential resource for
professional, amateur, and student clarinetists. With engaging
prose supported by fact-filled analytical charts, the book offers
rich biographical information and informative analyses to help
clarinetists gain a more complete understanding of Three Pieces for
Clarinet Solo by Igor Stravinsky, Aaron Copland's Concerto for
Clarinet, String Orchestra, Harp, and Piano, Robert Schumann's
Fantasy Pieces for Clarinet and Piano, Op. 73. and Time Pieces for
Clarinet and Piano, Op. 43. by Robert Muczynski, among many others.
With close attention to matters of context, style, and harmonic and
formal analysis, Albert Rice explores a significant portion of the
repertoire, and offers a faithful and comprehensive guide that
includes works by Boulez, Brahms, and Mozart to Hindemith, Poulenc,
and Stamitz. Rice includes biographical information on each
composer and highlights history's impact on the creation and
performance of important works for clarinet. Intended as a starting
point for connecting performance studies with scholarship, Rice's
analysis will help clarinetists gain a more complete picture of a
given work. Its valuable insights make it essential to musicians
preparing and presenting programs, and its detailed historical
information about the work and composer will encourage readers to
explore other works in a similarly analytical way. Covering
concertos, chamber pieces, and works for solo clarinet, Rice
presents Notes for Clarinetists as an indispensable handbook for
students and professionals alike.
