Distant Journeys: 1st B-flat Clarinet

A strong sense of rhythm, dramatic melodic lines, and tension and release characterize the sound and feel of Distant Journeys by Chris M. Bernotas. The rhythmic nature of this piece gives the sense of traveling and adventure, perhaps through the hot sands of a desert, or through a thick jungle. Let your students use their imagination to create their own journey through this piece. (2:20)
