Clarinet,Instrumental Solo,Piano - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.851513 Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Arranged by Brett Thompson. Baroque. Score and individual part. 7 pages. Brett Thompson #433313. Published by Brett Thompson (A0.851513). Also known as Air on the G String, this is, arguably, Bach’s best known and most loved work. As well as being a piece of eternal perfection, it is a brilliant opportunity for students to explore the way in which Bach’s harmonic movement and counterpoint work so effortlessly together. While it is not technically difficult to play each individual part, it presents a wonderful interpretive challenge in bringing to life the seemingly endless melodic line and dialogue that waits eagerly to be realised. In this arrangement the transposition from the original D Major into E flat Major (F Major for the clarinets) more comfortably preserves Bach’s original voicing with the more robust tone color offered here.
