I was inspired to create this suite after the horrendous Paris attacks in 2015, to show our solidarity with French, and love for their music. I originally made an arrangement for string orchestra designed to be played by groups on different ability levels.  This arrangement for two violas  is intended for very advanced students, skilled amateurs, or professionals. I have not included any fingerings so as to leave this to the artistic choice of each performer. The arrangement includes seven selections: Bizet’s Carmen and L'Arésienne, Alouette, Frère Jacques, Offenbach’s Can-Can, Debussy’s Clair de Lune and La Marseillaise (French National Anthem) by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle. There are also brief quotes from Mahler's Symphony No. 1, Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique, and Schumann's Two Grenadiers. The entire suite is approximately eight minutes in length. Score and parts are included.

Hendrik Waelput (1845-1885) was a Belgian composer who was known as the Flemish Schubert.  This work, originally for four violas has been adapted for either 4 Bb clarinets or 3 Bb's and bass clarinet.  Performance time is roughly 2:40.  This work is suited for recitals, church services, and weddings.  It can be sightread by a group of experienced musicians, and is also appropriate for younger clarinetists.  The top 3 parts each have melodic material at various points so everyone can have fun!
