Not your mother's Brahms Clarinet Quintet (Mühlfeldtänze)

Author: odhecaton

I'd like to share my brand new clarinet quintet:

Titled Mühlfeldtänze ("Mühlfeld Dances"), it was commissioned by the Aaron Copland House and the Hoff-Barthelson Music School.

As the title implies, it's a recontextualization of the Brahms: The majority of the clarinet part is comprised of licks and passages from Brahms’ Clarinet Quintet – at times quoted verbatim, at times slightly altered – recontextualized (did I just use that word twice? poor form) in a syncopated, jazz/rock-inspired, dance-like framework.

It's published by American Composers Press, but here is a webpage where you can view the score, and stream the audio:

Thanks!
