James H. Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Like... clarinet... alone? Not accompaniment, at all? That is your preference? How comfortable is your altissimo on bass clarinet? How about your break navigation? I can play quite agilely up to written A above the staff (I mean the REALLY high one) would you feel comfortable letting me assume you can play anything I can? Is a pianist easily available? I can write a very simple piano part - so long as the person is comfortable reading sophisticated chords (not quickly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicman02 Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 So you prefer no accompaniment? That's new. Ok I will see what I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarSanchez Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 I can hit high notes comfortably on bass clarinet. pianist is available, but learning something is difficult last min. which is why I prefer no accomp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmyjuicin Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 How fast can you tongue, as in how many bpm for 16th notes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarSanchez Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 I can double tongue on cl. very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Chicken Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Having a set deadline seems to help my compositional output, so I will give this a shot. It is also a chance to practice woodwind writing. Sooo.. how are you handling submissions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinyip Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I do have a piece with clarinet solo for about 3 minutes long, how would you like to have it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
composerorganist Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Omar - I have an easier clarinet solo piece that I am revising for you - only question - how can you handle fast consecutive leaps of 9th in the top register? meter 6/8 tempo dotted quarter = 72-84. EDIT - I'd rather you just consider mine a back-up piece (well, that is if you even like it!!!) to whatever you choose. I have written a quite a few pieces for clarinet so I may have a slight advantage over composers who have not written for clarinet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicman02 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 there is many pieces like that. I am very well aware of that I meant for me to write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
