Windswept
Adrienne Albert
About this work:
Originally conceived as the final movement to a horn and piano sonata, I realized that the clarinet, with its agility, tonal colors and range would make the perfect partner to the piano. "Windswept" is a playful and lyrical interchange between the instruments. The piano has a cascading motif of triplets throughout that represents the wind sweeping across the plains and over the seas.
