FÜNF KOMMENTARE ZU “ICH RUF ZU DIR…” for clarinet & harp

Описание: Fünf Kommentare zu ‘Ich ruf zu Dir...’ (BWV 639) was composed in 2012. It is based on one of Johann Sebastian Bach’s best known, three-voice choral preludes for organ, presumably meant as an exercise for the pedals. For this version, which is one of several by the composer on the same theme, Micháns chose a clarinet and a harp, a rather infrequent combination which beautifully translates the intimacy of the piece and allows for a considerable display of virtuosity from both instruments. The different sections do not necessarily follow the pattern of the piece, but borrow elements from both the melodic line and the underlying figures, which explains the title of “comments”, rather than of “variations”, given to the work.

The KALEIDOS FOUNDATION was created in 2010 for the promotion and dissemination of the works by Argentine-Dutch composer and author Carlos Micháns (Buenos Aires, 1950). Micháns' extensive catalogue includes works in almost every genre, among which five ‘sinfonie concertante’ for soloists and orchestra, two symphonic overtures, several compositions for choir and orchestra, a harp concerto, a saxophone concerto, quartets and quintets for a variety of combinations (strings, saxophones, clarinets and mixed ensembles), countless solo pieces and for small and large chamber groups. Most of them are commissioned by the Dutch Fund for Performing Arts for distinguished Dutch and international soloists and ensembles, such as Ronald Brautigam, Isabelle van Keulen, Liza and Dmitry Ferschtman, Arno Bornkamp, Lavinia Meijer, Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, Radio Chamber Orchestra, Holland Symfonia and many others. They are published in The Netherlands by Donemus.
