Born in southern France, Auguste Perier (1883-1947) studied at the Ecole Nationale de Musique in Montpellier before entering the Paris Conservatoire. Whilst studying, he won the 1904 first prize for clarinet, proving his significant ability on the instrument. Therefore, his Complete Study of the Clarinet is very well-informed. The ninth volume of the series, 22 Modern Studies is suitable for clarinetists of grades seven and eight standard. Whilst addressing modern tonality and rhythmic elements, 22 Modern Studies also addresses features including articulation, dynamics, scales, arpeggios, accidentals, ornamentation, performance directions, tempo markings, phrasing, key and time signatures, and complex rhythms, among other aspects. Perier's Complete Study of the Clarinet (22 Modern Studies) is essential to advanced clarinetists seeking to improve their technique for performances of modern repertoire to a high standard.

Xavier Montsalvatge (1912-2002) was a consummate Spanish composer who explored many 20th century styles including Impressionism, Serialism, Modernism, and Wagnerism, while maintaining a distinctive Catalan character. He first came to prominence in 1940, after the Spanish Civil War, and is seen to represent the lost generation which was active in the second half of the 1900's. He helped to advance Spanish music from the Nationalistic style that dominated before the war, and began to introduce West Indian influences into European music. Self-Parafrasis for Clarinet and Piano was written around 1968, when Montsalvatge was just coming into the height of his compositional prowess. Itis presented here in a high-quality glossy cover, and would make the perfect gift for any clarinettist.

“Contemporary Italian-French composer, Armando Ghidoni brings together influences of both Italy and France in his music. Also, as an expert on jazz, the harmonies and rhythms of the composer's works reflect a huge diversity, Nocturne and Sicilienne for Clarinet and Piano or Harp accompaniment being no exception. Ghidoni is significant within the contemporary French music school and his works are regularly chosen as set pieces for leading national and international competitions. Nocturne and Sicilienne reflects Ghidoni's mastery of a range of instruments. With a typical performance lasting about five minutes, Nocturne and Sicilienne is a truly exquisite addition to the modern Clarinet repertoire. &rdquo.

Antti Auvinen's (b. 1974) Eliangelis (2005) for clarinet solo challenges the conventional way of writing for a monophonic solo instrument: at times the multi-layered multiphonic figures create an illusion of polyfony, and at times the timbres for the clarinet are augmented by a combination of broken sound and pitchless hissing. Sounds created by unusual ways of playing do not sound artificial. Auvinen uses them in a service of the musical substance understanding the features of the clarinet. Despite its modern approaches, the music of Auvinen slips with ease into the centuries-old classical-music continuum, and the emotional charges generated by music occupy an important role. Art, he says, affects people deepest down, in the realm of emotion.
