Product Description

Overtones is a single-movement virtuoso work that exploits the contrast between the different registers of the clarinet and their associated timbres.
The basic material uses a scale derived from the clarinets characteristic overtones (or harmonic series), and is displayed at the opening of the work in the form of a toccata-like passage followed by a more relaxed section in which a solo line is echoed by the other clarinets. These two groups of ideas are then subjected to a variety of developments and juxtapositions, culminating in a dissonant climax of note-clusters, followed by a shortened and varied repetition of the opening sections (but without the toccata-like characteristics) climbing up the overtone series and disintegrating into nothingness.
The pdf contains the score and the four instrumental parts.
