Sea Songs: California Coast: a three-movement work for Clarinet in B-flat and Piano that explores the fascinating ecosystem of fish and plants along the Southern California Coast and expanding down through Baja California Sur, Mexico. From rocks and crevices where animals hide and kelp forests that drift toward the surface, to eelgrass and the sandy ocean floor, this magical world is full of life and colorful fish and animals.
