Tart Stylings

1998 solo bass clarinet (CO) 6'40" Score Get the Music
A recital piece for solo alto saxophone or bass clarinet.

Tart Stylings is playfully virtuosic. The opening theme recurs and is developed – re-stylized – over the course of the piece, with each occurrence giving way to a different fanciful episode. Elements of each episode are summarized and combined as the piece closes.
