Debussy Clarinet/piano track 4 u
Thursday, December 6th, 2007
Colleen Dick and son Connor Dick’s recording of Debussy’s Primier Rhapsody for clarinet and piano is yours for the downloading. The online Free Dictionary defines the musical rhapsody form as an irregular form incorporating improvisation. Debussy’s Rhapsody certainly fills the bill–it moves from typical Debussy soft and dreamy to playful stacatto with a little game of tag between the clarinet and piano. Connor is a 22 year old clarinet performance major at the University of Oregon, and Colleen has logged years as an accompanist since seventh grade. (We aren’t even going to say how many years that is.) Thanks for letting us share our own music with you. BTW, the background for this graphic is, in fact, a chunk of the first page of the actual music. Did you think a geek like me would phony it up with just any old music? The link points to the .wav version. The .wav is better quality than the compresed mp3 format but is is quite a bandwidth and space hog. If smaller is what you’re looking for see the widgetized mp3 version in the other post.
