This album brings together four previously unrecorded works whose stimulating and demanding character are uniquely suited to the dynamic energy of clarinetist Richard Spece and pianist Read Gainsford. Among the pieces on this programme is the clarinet sonata by cutting edge composer William O. Smith, also known as Dave Brubeck’s colleague Bill Smith, noted for his groundbreaking use of clarinet multiphonics. Spece wrote his doctoral thesis about the works of Smith and his knowledge of the composer informs this recording.
