Hyacinthe Eléonore Klosé (11 October 1808 – 29 August 1880) was a French clarinet player, professor at the Conservatoire de Paris, and composer. Klosé was also noted for his design improvements to the clarinet using the principles laid down by Theobald Boehm in his innovative work on the flute keywork.
His Air Varie has become a favourite for clarinet and another unexpected contender: the ophicleide! The introduction, theme and 3 variations, followed by a rond are so charming and highly suitable for Treble or Bass recorders that – having performed the piece on the ophicleide ourselves- we felt this edition could make a great concert piece and addition to the repertoire for recorder players on the hunt for new music.
This edition includes solo parts for recorders in F in Treble and Bass clef.
