Product Description

It Aint Necessarily So is a show-stopper when sung by the character Sportin Life in George Gershwins opera PORGY AND BESS (1935). This arrangement for clarinet quintet captures all of the swagger of the original song in a swinging setting that builds from a simple tenor melody to a grand shout section. Alternative transpositions of the fourth part are provided for Bb, alto, and bass clarinets. Instrumentation: 4 Bb clarinets (alternate alto/bass 4th part), bass clarinet. Duration: c. 2:30. Grade 3.
