Summer Waltz

This sensitive and beautiful piece for junior clarinetists highlights tone production, breath control and legato phrasing. The approaches to the break are stepwise and controlled, making it easy for young players to manage. Summer Waltz showcases the clarinet's ability to produce rich and sustained long notes and sounds harder than it is!The playful duet between the piano and soloist when the piano has the melody teaches careful listening and ensemble playing.The delightful lilting waltz rhythms of Summer Breezes are buoyed forward in the accompaniment throughout. The mood is light, free, innocent and fun. A great recital or festival piece!Key: C+Time Signature: 3/4Mood: gentle, dance-like, happyDuration: 2:25
