Hey all,
I am trying to ID a clarinet solo I played in college. It was clarinet and piano and the beginning featured clarinet by itself, quietly. Then the clarinet plays into an open grand piano very loudly...
It's a contemporary composition and I believe the title or the composer starts with B.
Thanks for any help!
Matt

Don't think so.
Berg never has the clarinettist play into the piano, although there is a place here he has the pianist silently depress keys so the strings can sympathetically vibrate.

It wasnt Berg. The beginning is quite soft and then, all of a sudden, the clarinet plays a low chalumeau E into the piano.

I'm not sure if this is your piece, but could it have been by Peter Sculthorpe?
A couple years ago I attended a Richard Stoltzman recital, and he played a Sculthorpe work (possibly Songs of Sea and Sky). At one point, Stoltzman got up and played into the open grand piano.

That does not sound familiar, unfortunately. Maybe I will contact the new professor of clarinet there and see if he has the music library Dr. Jahn had.
I want to say the composer had a short name and the piece was one movement only.
