Digital Booklet

|||||
Ian Mitchell is a leading performer on all members of the clarinet family and has made recordings with most of them. Here a miscellany of pieces demonstrates the range and mellifluousness of the bass clarinet, in music of several styles from the Romantic to the Modern including the jazz-influenced, duets with voice, Cuban dances and other ensemble pieces. Works by leading American and British composers and some who deserve wider recognition based on the fine pieces presented here. Included is a suite by William O. Smith, better known as jazz legend Bill Smith, for two bass clarinets.
