Par MANTOVANI BRUNO. La clarinette est l'instrument que j'ai le plus mis à l'honneur dans mon catalogue, de mon solo Bug jusqu'à Quasi lento où elle est un soliste permanent à l'intérieur d'un grand orchestre en passant par Mit ausdruck, concerto pour clarinette basse et orchestre.

Drop drop slow tears was written for The Arcadian Singers of Oxford University for a recording in 2002. The work is set in a simple three-verse format beginning with upper voices whose melting harmonies are intended to convey dropping tears. The second verse sung by lower voices is more urgent but subsiding to a serene final verse. Here all eight voice parts sing in rich almost claustrophobi…

It was originally written for the flute but may equally well be played on the violin cello or sopranosaxophone.The piece is in three sections - slow/fast/slow.

The composer writes:'My Symphony is in two movements which however are played without a break. Taken together they progress from the extremely high almost unison screams and glissandi of the opening via blurred melodic and swarming rhythmic formations towards the slow ending with its simple and more clearly out-lined melodic fragments. The designation 'symphony' is in this case much more a ti…
