In general the music is extremely quiet, delicate, sensuous and sentimental. The sensuousness is created by the use of South American folkloric idioms, especially the Brazilian choro, which is at times combined with Blues melodies and Jazz harmony. In this version for clarinet and piano, some movements are expanded and some piano harmonies are new.

The clarinet part remains close to the original. Early college level with some glissandos C Chant d'amour for clarinet and piano by Isaac Albeniz arranged by H. Alphonse Leduc, , SS, pages.

This piece was inspired by a visit to Rossini's birthplace to hear the first opera he composed in Paris.

The trombone glissandos now reflect what is in the book. The clarinet and flute have high melody parts. The violin and trumpet have low versions of the melody. The trumpet can play the tenor or a transposition of the alto instead of being heavy on the melody. The piano is just the melody and the octaves of the bass line, sorry! I hope to get to it soon. This is still in progress. The freylekhs part was pulled from Klezmer Band Folio, Yale Klezmer Band and thus started as a pretty complete orchestration. The hora part is from The Compleat Klezmer and thus started as a lead sheet. I am still expanding the orchestration in that part.

This is a very exciting bulgar. I have heard a number of variations. The book has an alto sax part but no tenor sax part. I have constructed the tenor part by using liberal quotes from the alto part and from the violin part. The violin part is NOT a melody part! The violin part is most definitely a harmony part. In the violin score, the melody is a C transposition of the clarinet part. The primary violin part in the book is the second part in this score.

Metropolitan Klezmer has a recording flute, bass and hand drums. This arrangement is so spare because that is the direction I am taking our performance.

It arrangement is basically the same as the December ? The only real change is that I've added a drum part. The MIDI will be useful in understanding the drum rhythms.

Note that in the individual reed parts I have a melody, accompaniment and counter melody. The counter melody is the basis of the alto sax and trombone parts. The midi that I am including here has the clarinet playing melody on the first pass and accompaniment on the second. The trumpet reverses that. I believe it is a Shlomo Carlebach melody. This freylekhs is in the A and B sections the same as Shtiler Bulgar. The C section is a little different. The melody was made into the swing standard, "As the Angels Sing".

This is a nice freylekhs with an interesting bass vamp. We actually play it a bit slower than in the recordings. This is a nice klezmerized tango composed by Reiner Oberbeck. You can find the original of this as well as other compositions and arrangements at his web site. Note, that because of the interplay of the instruments, this is arranged with very specific parts for clarinet, violin and accordion.

We can only do this if we have a piano. This is a moderate speed Chasidic nigun. The piano for the introduction is pretty explicit. You can't just bang chords on that.
