From: Sean Osborn <feanor33@-----.net> Subj: [kl] The Beatles for Clarinet Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2005 13:54:40 -0500
Dear colleagues,
I have recently received permission from Hal Leonard to publish my "Quintet
for Clarinet and Strings - The Beatles"
It uses 19 Beatles songs compositionally in 4 movements for more than just
an arrangement. You can listed to excerpts at my site
www.osbornmusic.com/workslist.html
The movements are:
I. For Eleanor - Eleanor Rigby and For No One with a little While My Guitar
Gently Weeps thrown in. There's a fugue, too
II. Mother Julia Will - Julia, I Will, and Mother Nature's Son,
consecutively and in layers for heightened emotional value, especially if
you know the lyrics.
III. Chaos - Only a Northern Song is the vessle into which I pour I Am The
Walrus, She Said/She Said, Stawberry Fields Forever, Being For The Benefit
Of Mr. Kite, and is followed by a Blue Jay Way coda
IV. I've got nowhere. Love sunshine. Think writer! Because, the End. - Many
songs jumbled together pointed towards their inevitable conclusion.
Please contact me if you would like to perform it, or purchase a copy.
Thanks,
Sean Osborn, composer and clarinetist, Metropolitan Opera, retired
