Copland: Clarinet Concerto

Includes accompaniments for:

Part 1

Part 2

Part 2 (practice)

Aaron Copland wrote his clarinet concerto between 1947 and 1949, as a commission for the great clarinetist Benny Goodman. The first part is very slow and languid, and then a technically demanding solo cadenza leads straight into part 2. This is full of jazz rhythms with a Latin American vibe in some sections.

These high-quality piano accompaniment tracks help make practising more effective and enjoyable! They are recorded by a professional accompanist and can help you keep in tune and in time, as you play along to the piano part for this work.
