Published by Cornelius edition (A0.1173353).Prelude II from George Gershwin's "Three Preludes for piano" composed in 1926 and transcribed for Bb Clarinet and two Bassoons.
Gershwin referred to the piece as "a sort of blues lullaby.
The second Prelude is distinctly influenced by jazz and the piece begins with a subdued melody winding its way above a smooth, steady bassline. The harmonies and melodies of this piece are built on thirds, emphasizing both the interval of the seventh and the major/minor duality of the blues scale. In the second section, the key, tempo, and thematic material change and the opening melody and bass return in the final section. This arrangement is transposed down from the original key to B minor.
A perfect ensemble piece for classroom study, woodwind recitals, competitions or church interludes. Duration: 03:00
