Additional Information
In 2011, I wrote this piece for the unusual combination of clarinet and organ. I decided to orchestrate the organ part in 2021 and completed this in 2022. It is called Dialogues as the clarinet solo appears to be in a dialogue with the orchestra.
Lasting 8.75 minutes, the piece is essentially a rondo, the recurring theme featuring harmonies in the orchestra, both straight and arpeggiated, with an interlude of trills and runs between the soloist and saxophone.
A dance-like section follows the first statement. There follows a brief statement of the rondo theme, followed by a slow section prior to a development of the rondo theme. The piece ends quietly and peacefully.
