Five Duets for Clarinet and Trumpet

• Rosenhaus, Steven

In the mid-1980s Steven Rosenhaus donated his services as a composer to the New York Philharmonic then-unique fundraiser, the Radiothon. He offered to write a 3-to-5-minute work for any instrument, with or without accompaniment, in exchange for an appropriate donation to the NYP. The first such work was the Rondo for oboe (or flute) and piano. The second commission was in reality two, for a set of twin musicians who were about to graduate high school and major in music performance in college. The resulting Five Duets for clarinet and trumpet are performance etudes, short studies which focus on 20th-century musical styles as well as playing techniques. No specific works or composers are ever referenced, and no extended techniques are required.
