Solo bass clarinet

SKU: A7.ALEA1008

Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by Kimberly Davenport and Michael Davenport. Classical. Score. Alea Publishing #ALEA1008. Published by Alea Publishing (A7.ALEA1008).

The Chaconne from the d minor Partita of J.S. Bach for solo violin has long fascinated musical theorists, historians, and performers. It is a Chaconne of enormous development and proportion, especially when we consider that it was written for a solo instrument. Brahms transcribed the Chaconne as an exercise for piano left hand. The bass clarinet again shows itself to be very adaptable in this attractive transcription of the Chaconne for bass clarinet or clarinet. While challenging both technique and endurance, the Chaconne can be successfully played on either soprano or bass clarinet, but is a particularly powerful musical experience as performed on bass clarinet.
