About the creation of the work
I originally wrote these three easy performance pieces in 2016 and 2017 for my children for the winter season, for clarinet(s) and piano. The melodies were created during our pre-Christmas family music-making sessions, and year after year my children learned new notes on their instruments. As a result, I expanded the range and wrote the pieces in several levels of difficulty, so that both younger and older children can enjoy playing them.
Performance note
The three movements may also be played independently of each other.
If all three movements are performed in a concert, the first movement is played by player A and the third movement by player B. The original order should be retained.
About the sheet music
For the first and third movements, easier ossia parts with a smaller or lower range are also available.
If no piano is available, demos and playalongs are available for practice purposes, for use at home, or for internal recital evenings. In public concerts, the pieces should only be performed with live piano accompaniment.
(Theodor Burkali 2019)
In 2023, the composer created and made available a new instrumentation for saxophones and in 2024 for flute(s).
The sheet music is available in print or digital form (licensed PDFs). The audio files are available online free of charge. *
