Andante con Variazioni for Flute and Bb Clarinet |
|
Eager to compose a theme and variations for the first time, after becoming familiar with the genre from Beethoven to Ginastera, I developed a theme with an easily trackable melody and harmonic profile, so I could explore special textures in each of the 5 variations and keep the theme feeling present regardless of how far the actual surface varied. IMPROVEMENTS IN THE 2013 PRINTING: Variation II, tempo should be 78-82 Variation IV, the clarinetist may use an A Clarinet here (fingering a half-step higher)
