**Annotation**: There are few works for four Bb clarinets as interesting and as challenging than this
work. Written in four uniquely distinct movements, each part is equally difficult in its
independence. The range of all of the parts reach to at least G 6 and the intricacy of the parts
requires a skilled ensemble that has confidence in their own parts.
