About the event
Misnomer has three movements and is inspired by my friendship with Katherine and our mutual struggles with being called the wrong name. The first movement is for the upper half of the clarinet alone. The second is for the lower half of the clarinet alone. The third is for both demi-clarinets together performed by one player at the same time. This piece is influenced by William O. Smith, who was a pioneer for demi-clarinet and pushed the capabilities of the clarinet beyond imagination.
