Romanian Folk Dances - Clarinet Sextet

Bartok is famous for his love of Hungarian and Romanian folk music. He spent many summers traveling through small villages in both Hungary and Romania recording and transcribing folk music, a lot of which would appear in many of his compositions. Due to Bartok's thick textures, there is almost no doubling between the parts with the ensemble consisting of five separate B-flat clarinet parts and bass clarinet. Your ensemble will enjoy the variety of folk tunes collected by Bartok, as each of the sections has a turn at sharing the melodic ideas. Arranged by Carmen Gassi for five clarinets and bass clarinet by Carmen Gassi. Includes score and parts. Duration: 4:50.
