Composer(s): Daniel DorffEnticing for college and professional ensembles, SLIPPERY SLOPES begins as a tender elegy, leading to a spiky 7/8 allegro marked Driving!, all in big-band harmony and Latin-infused rhythm. The 6-minute work calls for 4 Bb clarinets and 2 bass clarinets (that don’t go below low Eb), plus an optional contrabass part. SLIPPERY SLOPES works equally well for full ensembles or six solo players, and the 7/8 Salsa is ideal for clarinetists hungry for challenges that are gratifying to learn and perform.
