Classical Music for Children Ulrike Warnecke

'Klassik für Kinder' wants to introduce clarinet pupils to the beauty of Baroque, Classical and Romantic concert literature. Cautiously, not only original clarinet literature was taken up, but catchy tunes and themes from the opera (e.g. The Magic Flute) and the concert hall (Four Seasons, Capriccio italien, and others) were used as well. The edition starts with a piece from the Renaissance period, followed by the great composers of the Baroque, European Classical and Romantic eras and completed by several discoveries off the common concert programmes (Reinagel, Sullivan). Four centuries of music history which will make the pupils enjoy classical music! The pieces are presented in easy arrangements and can be mastered after about two years of tuition, with the three-line octave being left out.

Instrumentation:
clarinet in Bb and piano
