Unexpected Amusements Facilitating Hijinks of Chaotic Invention is a short three-movement work for Bb clarinet, oboe, and bassoon. Unexpected Amusements introduces the quirky trio with its major stylings and chromatic flourishes, Facilitating Hijinks adds an air of sneakiness and extreme upper-register clarinet before incorporating an extended oboe technique, and Of Chaotic Invention rips through to the end with virtuosic solo moments and call-backs to the first two movements before ending on a delightfully squealing chord. Lasting approximately four and a half minutes in total (~4:30 min.), Unexpected Amusements Facilitating Hijinks of Chaotic Invention is tonal despite its chromaticism and extended instrumental techniques, and it encourages acting at a couple points (which the performers can expand upon or ignore as desired). It is appropriate for a wide variety of contexts, including concerts and competitions. This listing includes both the full score and all individual parts (one copy each) for all three movements. Kat Felicis Ioco is a composer, lyricist, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist with a Bachelor of Music in Composition from the University of Northwestern - St. Paul. Her works include classical/concert pieces and film scores; she is also a solo symphonic metal artist and an active performer. Visit katfelicisioco.com for full bio, credits list, and links.
