Program Notes:

This version of Hidden Reflections is composed for clarinet and piano, originally written for alto saxophone and piano.

Hidden Reflections for Clarinet and piano explores the expressivity, agility, wide range, and rhythmic characteristics of the saxophone. The piece is in two movements: First, “The March of the _______!!!” is an impression of a grotesque march and alternates between odd and steady meters. The second movement, “The Evening of the First Snow,” is nostalgic and meditative, inspired by the falling snowflakes on a Boston winter evening, as experienced in 1996. Hidden Reflections was written for saxophonist Styliani Tartsinis, who premiered and recorded the work.

NOTE:
Currently, the only available reference recording is the original version of this work for alto saxophone and piano.
