Josquin des Prez (1450-1521) was a French-Flemish composer who lived during the Renaissance period. His chamber music was influential in developing modern tonality and musical genres. Josquin's compositions encompassed secular and sacred works, including chansons and Italian frottola. He is regarded as one of the greatest composers of the Renaissance and was among the first to use innovations such as multiple voices and counterpoint. His achievements as a musical magician-mathematician remain stunning even centuries after his death. The importance of Josquin des Prez's chamber music lies in its influence on the development of modern music and its enduring legacy as a masterpiece of the Renaissance period.

The significance of Josquin Des Prez's Bicinia lies in its contribution to the development of Renaissance music. Josquin Des Prez, a renowned composer of the Renaissance, emphasized the relationship between text and music, departing from the early Renaissance tendency towards lengthy melismatic lines on a single syllable. His Bicinia, two-part compositions, showcase his mastery of polyphony and his innovative approach to musical expression. Josquin is universally regarded as the greatest composer of the Renaissance, and his music, including the Bicinia, played a significant role in shaping the musical landscape of his time and beyond.

Franz Josef Haydn was an Austrian composer who is best known for his work in the field of chamber music. He composed in a variety of musical forms, including divertimenti, trios and string quartets. He was a prolific composer who wrote over 100 pieces of chamber music and is believed to have been a major influence on the music of his students and contemporaries, including Mozart and Beethoven. Haydn's music is known for its balance and clarity in structure. His chamber works were known for their accessibility and elegance, with melodies that were often lighthearted and charming. His symphonies were well-crafted and often featured balanced melodic elements. Haydn composed many well-known divertimenti and trios, but his string quartets are what he is most celebrated for. He wrote some sixty to eighty string quartets, and these works were historically significant for expanding the limits of the genre and for their influence on the composers and musicians who followed him.

The Jellybean Jive is a fun and original duet written by David McKeown for two Clarinets. 

The Jellybean Jive is one in a series of ten Easter-themed duets each written in a different American dance style. Jive originally referred to African American slang in the 1930s when Big Band Swing was the popular music of the time. The Second World War brought Swing and Lindy Hop dancing to the UK and British audiences preferred to call it Jive.

The Jellybean Jive is suitable for players at an intermediate level and above, with the accessible key and range balanced by the fast tempo, some syncopated rhythms and accidentals. With a playing-time of around one and a half minutes, The Jellybean Jive is a perfect upbeat addition to any performance program, formal or informal.
