“Italian clarinetist and composer, Ernesto Cavallini (1807-1874) studied at the Milan Conservatory. He has been described as the â€â€œPaganini of the Clarinetâ€â€œ therefore, it is no surprise that his studies for the instrument, such as 30 Caprices are very well-informed. Volume 2 of Cavallini's 30 Caprices contains caprices 19 to 30. All of the studies are virtuosic, addressing features including chromaticism, scales, articulation, a wide range, breath control, intervals, variations in performance directions, dynamics and tempo, differing key signatures and time signatures, complex rhythms and ornamentation, amongst other aspects. For all advanced clarinetists, Cavallini's 30 Caprices are essential, ensuring technical progression to a high standard.â€.

“Belgian composer, Marcel Poot (1901-1988) was a professional composer, professor and musician. He studied at the Belgian Conservatory and went on to attain success as an organist and composer. His substantial compositions for wind and brass are still performed to this day, Trio for 3 Clarinets being no exception. In 1925, Poot and several of his contemporaries founded 'The Synthetists', a group to rival 'Les Six' in France. They wished to inject dynamicism in to the conservative Belgian music scene through the composition of modern pieces. Trio for 3 Clarinets reflects this, whilst maintaining recognisable musical elements. Poot's Trio is made up of three movements; 1) Allegretto grazioso, 2) Tempo di Barcarola, and 3) Allegro giocoso. For advanced clarinetists, Poot's Trio for 3 Clarinets is an exciting addition to the ensemble repertoire.â€.

“Philippe Gaubert (1879-1941) was a distinguished performer on the Flute. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that his compositions for woodwind are at the forefront of the musical family's repertoire, Fantasy for Clarinet being no exception. After a prominent career as a flautist with the Paris Opéra, Gaubert was appointed as professor of Flute at the Paris Conservatoire, as well as principal conductor of leading orchestras. It was during this time that Gaubert composed, including his Fantasy for Clarinet, which he wrote towards the beginning of his career. Addressing many technical features, including flourishing semiquaver passages, a wide range, lyrical melodies, intervals, chromaticism and complex rhythms, Fantasy is a challenging, yet riveting and stirring piece for aspiring advanced clarinetists.â€.
