Bass Clarinet & Friends: A Miscellany

简介

Ian Mitchell is a leading performer on all members of the clarinet family and has made recordings with most of them. Here, a range of contemporary pieces (and one Romantic) demonstrate the range and mellifluousness of the bass clarinet, in music of several styles from the jazz-influenced to vocal and ensemble pieces. Works by leading American and British composers and some who deserve wider recognition based on the fine pieces presented here are featured. Included is a suite by William O. Smith, better known as jazz legend Bill Smith, for two bass clarinets. Ian Mitchell has for many years also led the Gemini ensemble, which is very highly regarded in the UK for its work in modern music. Guest appearances from Friends complete a fine line up of expert musicians.
