I am going to play Dominick Argento's To Be Sung Upon the Water, =
Barcarolles and Nocturnes for High Voice, Piano, and Clarinet (with Bass =
Clarinet) for my upcoming Master's recital. I have never heard it before =
and I understand it is supposed to be a really great piece.=20

I have two questions:

1) Does anybody know anything about the piece that I should know prior =
to performing? I know nothing other than the fact it is based on poems =
of Wordsworth.

2) Does anybody know of any recordings that are available of the piece? =
I am curious to hear what everything sounds like.

Thanks in advance.
