C2143: Rapture for Clarinet in B-flat and Tape by Anna Clyne. Boosey & Hawkes, 2005 (fourth printing 2014), SS, 5 pages + CD. "Rapture was composed for Australian clarinetist, Eileen Mack and was premiered at Symphony Space in New York City with live visuals created by Joshue Ott. In performance, the live clarinetist is processed in real time with a combination of effects often associated with electric guitars; namely distortion and reverb [easily obtainable guitar pedals may be used]. The transformed sound of the clarinet is supported with an intense tape part that comprises vocal recordings and recordings of Mack playing sounds, which range from sustained tones to multiphonics. In a similar process to painting, these recordings were then spliced, manipulated and layered to create the music of the tape part." The music includes instructions on setting up the microphones and equipment for performance. This is an advanced work with a duration of about 7:30. Here is an audio recording.

C1443: Reading Key Jazz Rhythms Clarinet by Fred Lipsius. Advance Music, 1996, SS, 68 pages + CD. This is a collection of 24 easy to medium level jazz etudes, and 24 simplified guide tone versions of the etudes. They are ideal for learning the basic language of jazz, swing phrasing, and articulation. The guide tone etudes (guide tones are the essential or defining notes for each given chord type) are followed by a melodious version as the chord changes might actually be performed (the rhythms are the same in both versions). On the accompanying CD the soloist (Ramon Ricker) demonstrates the 24 melodious etudes together with a professional rhythm section. You can also improvise along with the play-along tracks using the chord symbols. So if improvising is new to you and you find yourself getting lost, you can always return to a guide tone and play rhythmically around it. Any etude and its corresponding simplified guide tone version can be played together as a duet (with or without the CD accompaniment). | |
