I'd just like to say hello and thanks for your
interest! I haven't added some important information
about my pieces before so I have to make it right now. />


The Naive Nerd is a simple, silly, naive and brutally
optimistic tune that shouldn't be taken seriously. I
intend it to be an encore at the end of concert to lighten
the atmosphere. There is none insane quick playing, but
every mistake is therefore more obvious.



Joke the Killer is a little more difficult stuff. The first
part (exposition) should be funny, sharp and tight to the
notes. The slow part is serious, the humour is not quite
forgotten, but should be really cantabile and not rushed. In
the last part everyone is allowed to improvise a little bit
- primarily the bass clarinet. Just enjoy the fun!



Also thanks to Leonard Anderson for nice recordings! Both of
them have some "additives" that are really in the
spirit of what those pieces are and they are almost exactly
IT. For others - try to search IT in your way, I believe
every one of you is an excellent joker - let's see what
happens ;)!



Merry Christmas!



Matt
