Green, MC
Movie Night - Cinematic Scenarios for flute doubling alto and piccolo, clarinet in Bb doubling bass clarinet, and piano.
From the composer:
Ever since listening to the Superman TV show theme when I was a kid in the 1950s, and also to the hilarious Carl Stalling scores featured in the Bugs Bunny and other Warner Brothers cartoons, I've had a strong appreciation for film music in its sometimes obvious, sometimes subtle partnership with visual media in the main story-telling medium that informs, entertains (or distracts?) our age.
So, in a fond and quirky musical tribute to a few classic cinematic scenes - a comedy routine, a mysterious midnight romantic encounter and, of course, a heart-racing chase sequence - I thought that perhaps the unfolding musical events alone may produce a movie-of-the-mind in the listeners.
Also, in not having an 85-member Hollywood studio orchestra directly at hand, it seemed a worthy, necessary and enjoyable challenge to exploit the expressive personalities and contrasts of just a couple of woodwinds and a piano. By the way, if your bass clarinet doesn't have the Low C, then simply adjust those few lowest notes to the higher octave as needed.
The tongue-in-cheek old Hollywood fanfare introduction is optional. You could just start with the Chiaroscuro Comedy section for a more serious presentation!
