Versions for Clarinet/SopranoSax/Violin with Guitar and Strings
The guitar part came inspirational first to me as one of my 24 Studies that I wrote few years ago. For a while though I wondered if a melodic part should be added to this part and form eventually a duo. A request from my dear colleague Corey Whitehead, for a duo plus strings led me to orchestrate it in this version.
The work starts with a meditative introduction before the main part unfolds a dance idea between the two instruments and the string orchestra, almost humoresque which hands over a pensive thought in the soprano sax/clarinet/solo violin that repeats itself almost as an unanswered question. Could please anyone answers? The Strings do play an important part in terms of balance and the one of an extra third corresponding force.
My composition language is sometimes folklorist around my Greek heritage, sometimes around tonal centers, and sometimes simple within a few "key" notes, evolves around programmatic ideas that I get from every day living.
