In light of Rick Sowash's recent post about the success he has had
with interesting the good people of Klarinet list in his music, I would
like to renew and clarify my offer from last month. I too am a composer
who is interested in disseminating my music. I am offering the following
laser-printed finale scores and parts (with page turns) for what it costs
me to reproduce bound copies and to post them. I can also provide
recordings of the pieces. Mike Charette, in his infinite kindness has put
the first page or so of Poh Ben and and Boreas and Zephyrus on sneezy for
you to peruse. Please e-mail me privately with your snail mail
address if you are interested in any of the following:

1. Poh Ben Suite - an 8 minute, three movement set of jazz pieces for Bb
Clarinet and Piano. Written in 1992 for Clarinetist Ben Coleman and
Pianist Kee Poh Lim (two of my best friends in college), this suite was
premiered by them at Queens College, and has since been performed in both
Minneapolis and in NYC. (12 score pages, 5 part pages - $5.70 plus
postage.)

2. Boreas and Zephyrus - an 8 minute, single movement piece for Bb
Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, and Piano. Written in 1994 as a piece originally
for MIDI Clarinet and Electronics for John Anderson of the University of
Minnesota, I rearranged it in 1996. The new version will be premiered in
March at the Chelsea Center on Long Island, by students of Naomi Drucker.
(9 score pages, 7 part pages - $5.60 plus postage.)

3. Concentric Dance - a 9 minute, single movement wind trio (Flute, Bb
Clarinet, and Bassoon), written in late 1996 for the Mariah Wind Trio, who
will perform the piece in Kansas in March and in Missouri in May. The
piece is jazzy, with a minimalist tinge to it. (14 score pages, 18 part
pages - $7.20 plus postage.)

4. Jiminez Suite - an 8 minute, three movement set of vignettes for
Woodwind Quintet, inspired by three poems dealing with memory and remorse
by Juan Ramon Jiminez. Written in 1993, this piece has been performed by
The Emerald Winds (Ohio), the North Woods Quintet (Minnesota), and the
Quintet of the Americas (New York). (16 score pages, 28 part pages - $8.40
plus postage.)

Thank you for you indulgence.
