Scuttlings and Scramblings
for bass clarinet and harpsichord (2000; 10 min.)
Scuttlings and Scramblings was written for Double Action, the Dutch duo of Annelie de Man, harpsichord and Harry Sparnaay, bass clarinet. They premiered the piece in Amsterdam on February 1, 2004.
The nature of the music I wrote- humorous, quick, playful, at times crazy- reminded me of little animals like beetles and crabs running around in a hurry, hence the title.
performed by Harry Sparnaay, bass clarinet and Annelie de Man, harpsichord (excerpt)
