Composed by Cyril Scott. Arranged by Stephen Davies. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Multicultural,World. 67 pages. Stephen Davies #917388. Published by Stephen Davies (A0.1329407).This piece has been arranged and adapted for Clarinet Sextet, wildly ignoring the original articulation and dynamics to suit an ensemble of Clarinet technicians playing at their best!!
SOLEMN DANCE
Typical of Scott's style, the time signature is not a constant throughout, the added articulation is meant to bring out the extraordinary harmonies he employs, a particularly lush piece best performed in a generous acoustic.
FUGUE
Possibly the most bizarre fugue that I've ever heard, in the original there is an Adagio beginning and coda, which is omitted here simply to get to the 'nuts and bolts' of this unusual fugue. Scott uses chromaticism in both the melody and the harmony, interspersed with soft landings, and hard tranches of vertical and horizontal passages that grow deeper and deeper. As usual the time signatures are, at times, random.
