Subj: [kl] The Beatles for Clarinet

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
