Description

The introduction is angular, but very lyrical, and spans the full range of the instrument. The Joropo is a lively Latin American folk dance. The music is pitch-centric and moderately challenging. The composer is a renowned clarinetist, and a bass clarinet version of this piece has become standard repertoire.
