Harberg: Tenement Rhapsody (arr. for clarinet octet)

Description

Originally written for two pianos, Tenement Rhapsody was arranged for clarinet ensemble in 2012 for the New York Licorice Ensemble. Three descriptive movements (1. Subway; 2. At Home; 3. At Play) provide a fun, if challenging, rhythmic interplay for advanced performers.

"...skillfully and idiomatically scored, rhythmically complex, challenging to play and exciting to hear. Clarinet ensembles with professional-level members who enjoy contemporary idioms and the challenge of virtuosic counterpoint will find this piece a wonderful new repertoire option." -- The Clarinet
