Product Description

"Three Chorales (In Diminishing Length)"--or "Three Chorales" for short--is the result of a composing experiment combining a scribbled condensed score in concert C and D major with Noteflight. Typically, I'll write evolving chord progressions and only play them later, seeing what will result from a purely theoretical set of movements. This time, I "spot-checked" the handwritten score as I went, making adjustments to it and the digital score. The results are still delightfully weird and borderline atonal, but "Three Chorales" came out well overall (although I'd tweak some of the dynamics for the screeching clarinet part if I ever revisit it). The first chorale is six measures in the original manuscript (seven here to allow the bass clarinet to move to the tonic for a more satisfying chord); the second chorale is five measures; and the third chorale is four measures. Reducing the length of measures added an additional fun challenge in trying to make a musical "point" in a very short space. I don't know if I succeeded, but I had fun trying!
