For seven clarinet parts (E-flat clarinet, 3 B-flat clarinets, alto clarinet, bass clarinet, and contra alto clarinet). At the conductor's discretion, more than one performer may be assigned to a given part."Repose and Cascades" is composed as an introduction and allegro. The work opens with a chorale texture, although rhythmically blurred. A melody emerges, played in octaves in the E-flat clarinet and the bass clarinet. The faster section is more rhythmically direct, yet quirky and often humorous. The work builds to a climax in which the E-flat clarinet soars above the rest of the ensemble in a cascade of sound.
