Spanish clarinettist, composer, and teacher Antonio Romero y Andia was born in 1815 in Madrid. He made his debut at 14, and later became solo clarinettist and music director of the Royal Court Orchestra. He is now remembered primarily for the Clarinet key system that bears his name, as his compositional works, though high quality, were few in number. From 1849-1876, Romero was the Clarinet Professor at the Madrid Conservatory, where he wrote his Complete Clarinet Method . Over 150 years later, it is still in popular use by schools and conservatories all over the world.

American composer and woodwind performer Mike Curtis is equally comfortable in classical, jazz, and ethnic settings. He has toured the world as a klezmer clarinetist, played bassoon with symphonies and opera companies, and recorded on sax with jazz greats Charlie Rouse and Anthony Braxton. His compositions show the influence of those experiences and more. A Week in Plasencia was written following Mike’s 2015 trip to the International Clarinet Association festival in Madrid. After a week in the City that Never Sleeps, Mike sought an unknown, tranquil, provincial alternative. Sunny Plasencia, a riverside town at the foot of the Sierra de Gredos, came to reveal itself as a magical font of beauty, history, and inspiration. This piece exists in two versions, for solo clarinet and clarinet quartet. This product page listing is for the Solo Clarinet version.

The piece is about observing the most diverse anxiety states in extreme degrees of emotional intensity, from slight distress up to acute panic attacks. What interests me here is not merely the musical realization of these phenomena, but grasping the energetic nature of those psycho-physical processes, emotions, reflexes, and proceedings. To this end, I'm seeking, at the clarinet myself, for an intimate sound world where expanded styles of playing in a flexible and permanently moving context appear. A very intensive music of the nerves, with a broad palette of psycho-physical emotions that, found in myself and my surroundings, are made audible. The title Psychogramm II has (as always) a subtitle: rettegos (fearful). In the order of increasingly emotional anxiety words, this stands for the highest level and means very great, profound anxiety, though in a grammatical form not in fact devitalizing the serious idea, but mitigating it a bit, not entirely without humor and somewhat childishly.

The sense of longing, characteristic of every elegy, is really made for the tonal world of the clarinet. In this attractive concert piece, however, it is 'loaded with barbed hooks', as the composer once stated.
