Parts for Arthur Bliss's Quintet For Clarinet And String Quartet. Duration 26 minutes. Composed 1932.

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.' This deluxe 2-CD set includes the quintet in its original key with printed parts for both A and B-flat clarinets and adds a repitched version for B-flat clarinetists allowingplayers of that instrument easier execution plus the ability to learn the same fingerings as the composer's intended A clarinet for performance purposes.Includes a high-quality printed music score for B-flat clarinet; anda compact disc containing a complete version with soloist in split-channel stereo (soloist on the right channel); then a second version in full stereo of the accompaniment minus the soloist. Also includes a second compact disccontaining a recording of the quintet repitched to allow B-flat clarinetists to play the original written part for A-clarinet.

Clarinet Quintet in A major K. 581-Ever since Mozart encountered the Clarinet in Mannheim in 1778 he loved the instrument?s warm and expressive tone. His friendship with Anton Stadler the clarinetist in the Royal-Imperial Court Orchestra in Vienna prompted him to compose not only the Clarinet Concerto (K. 622) but also this ?Quintet of Quintets? which was written two years before his death. Like almost all his works for the Clarinet this Quintet wasprobably intended originally for the Basset Clarinet. However it survives only in two posthumous prints both of which call for a standard Clarinet. These prints form the basis of our edition. As an added bonus the appendixcontains a fragmentary Allegro in Bb major for the same combination of instruments.
