For Clarinet solo with wind quartet and string quartet. Score OnlyFirst performed by Michael Collins Clarinet London Winds and the Endellion String Quartet on 27th January 2011 at the Wigmore Hall London.Scoring:Solo ClarinetFluteOboeBassoonFrench Horn2 ViolinsViolaCelloDuration:circa 13 minutes'During a visit to the exhibition of Francis Bacon at the Tate Gallery in December 2008my eye fell on Figure in a Landscape 1945 which resonated in me powerfully. It is a sceneof devastation and despair and also it seemed to me of latent anger and hostility... butabove it all a serene blue sky beckons. So perhaps even in the darkest moments there is aglimmer of hope - the possibility of change.This idea became the starting point for this work - Towards the Blue - a mini concerto forclarinet who eventually becomes the leader of the group.The work starts without the clarinet and all is desolate yet fiercely argumentative discordant and uncomfortable. Suddenly the offstage clarinet is heard and the players insurprise are quietened. However when the clarinet enters and approaches with a lyricalmusical motif some of the players respond others resist. Gradually the clarinetpersuades the dissident voices to join him in a spirit of co-operation and harmony.A brief memory of the opening desolation casts a momentary shadow which is quicklydispelled by the coda marked Gioioso.'Thea Musgrave (May 13th 2010)Parts available for hire separately

Clarinet Play-Along Pack-This luscious quintet is scored for piano oboe clarinet horn and bassoon. Mozart's magnificent orchestration of the winds with piano creates a warm and glowing texture of sound and each instrument emerges at times for a prominent position.

Performed by Keith Dwyer clarinetAccompaniment : Cassini String Quartet: Charles Roth 1st violin; Marla Smith 2nd violin; John Madison viola; John Iatzko violoncelloWritten for his friend and fellow Mason inVienna Anton Stadler the quintet was completed in September of 1789 and premiered a few days before Christmas of that year. It is one of Mozart's most perfect accomplishments ? a score of proud serenity transparenttexture and radiant beauty. It is also an example of Mozart's uncanny ability to combine the best parts of chamber music and concerto music. The solo clarinet leads the ensemble but does not subjugate it. There is an infinitevariety of interplay between the performing partners and all five instruments undertake the virtuoso's role at one time or another. 'The result ' says Homer Ulrich 'is a piece of music whose charm and delicacy are difficult toduplicate in the literature of strings and winds.'
