Cantilena. (A Modern Lullaby) for Clarinet Duet and Piano.

"Cantilena" from the Italian for lullaby, is a modern type of lullaby in concert B flat major in triple time. Ideal for Christmas, Weddings, Concerts etc, Scored for Clarinet duet and piano with both instrumental parts equally sharing the material.

It's not unlike a barcarolle in tempo and mood- although there are elements of folk and romantic ideas present. It is designed to be restful and peaceful- It is in ternary form with a 4 bar intro and a similar outro. The Clarinet ranges are about 2 octaves with nothing higher than a top B flat. Rhythmically, it is almost all eighths, quarters, half notes and dotted half notes.

I have set it to early intermediate. The whole score is on the you tube link for you to assess suitability.

The full score is 7 pages- Parts are 2, piano 5 pages and it is around 4 minutes in length.

Price is for the Full Score and Parts.

(Flute and Clarinet Choir versions + other combinations are also available)
