Impromptu for Violin, Clarinet, cello and Piano, Op. 2
Date of Composition: 2006-07; rev. 2011, 2023
Duration: 3.5 Minutes
Program Notes: Scored for Violin, Bb Clarinet, Cello & Piano, this petite quartet is lively and flowing in the manner of an impromptu gathering of friends, each riffing in a seemingly improvisatory style on a theme. After a relaxed adagio of a blues-infused call and response among the players, the opening theme returns in an even more joyous re-gathering. After a dramatic piano solo, all instruments join together for a resounding E-Flat finale.
