The Heil PR20 microphone is a new breed of dynamic microphone with many benefits over other microphones in its price range. The PR20 will do a superior job at exactly capturing the sound from vocals, guitar, snare drums, cymbals, piano and more. Sound professionals, broadcasters and musicians of all genres rely on the PR20 microphone because it faithfully upholds the sound it takes in and is built to last. The PR20 has a large diaphragm providing a wide frequency range, with excellent upper mids. The PR20 does a great job of rejecting side & rear noise (minimizing feedback), and it is tough enough to withstand real-world usage. These attributes make the entire PR & RC series not only great rock music microphones, but they are also great for country, metal, jazz, funk, blues, rap, and opera, for that matter. With the PR20, you get three interchangeable acoustically identical mesh screens (Silver, Black, and Gold), along with additional black acoustical foam windscreen, padded carrying case, and a mic stand clip.

Close Encounters for Clarinet in B flat & Piano draws on historic themes connected to the medieval closes (also know as wynds or vennels) of the Scottish burgh town of Lanark, situated in the rural Clyde Valley. Often named after prominent resident business owners, these otherwise unremarkable narrow lanes are given life by the records of their occupiers or through local tales.Aside from the more self explanatory titles, ‘Luminare’ describes the astronomical interests of electrical pioneer David Hunter; ‘Jumbo Jive’ relates to the legend of an inebriated circus elephant escapee who became stuck in the arch of Wide Close; ‘Amber Sky’ connects the India Ale trade of Brewery Close with an occasional, evocative dusk light that cloaks the town before sunset.Close Encounters comprises five fascinating and contrasted short movements each set within its own very vivid sound world. The colourful harmonic language is drawn from a number of musical influences including flavours of Jazz, the silver screen and the French impressionists, all adding up to music that is both engaging to play and to listen to. The five movements are set at a comfortable technical level for the intermediate to advanced clarinettist, cover the entire range of the instrument, and the set would make for an intriguing addition to any clarinet recital.
- Paul Harris (composer & clarinettist)
