Chiftetelli
Chiftetelli <http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/markgustavson> Chiftetelli for
clarinet, two violins, viola and cello features melodic clarinet lines
influenced by the Middle Eastern zummara's (the clarinet's ancient
ancestor) ornamented style of playing. The pizzicato cello parts were
inspired by the dombek, a traditional Middle eastern drum. The dombek
produces two basic sounds: a low resonant thump and a higher, brighter
sound when the edge of the drum head is sharply rapped with the fingers.
Together the lyrical clarinet lines and colorful string writing creates
what Ted Shen of the Chicago Tribune described as, "...an adroitly
constructed compendium of tantalizing rhythmic variations."

Edward Gilmore, clarinet
Susan Polifrone & Theresa Fream, violins
Keith Conant, viola
Kim Scholes, cello
