**Annotation** : Similar to his work Jiddische Sjlimmert , Hiketick’s Tango utilizes requires the bass
clarinetist be able to both read in bass clef and play notes that are typically only found on
professional level instruments (range down to c 1 ). Additionally, this work requires sound
intonation, as it is written in a key in which notes typically have a tendency to run sharp (Concert
C).
