SUMMARY:“Chansons de la Nature pour la Clarinette”\, by Jenni Brandon\, Performed at ClarinetFest 2022 by Hilary Lowery
DESCRIPTION:“Chansons de la Nature pour la Clarinette”\, by Jenni Brandon\, was performed at ClarinetFest 2022 on Sunday\, July 3\, 2022 by Hilary Lowery\, clarinet. The concert was titled Silent Voices Project. \nClarinetFest® 2022 took place in Reno/Lake Tahoe\, Nevada\, USA\, June 29-July 3\, 2022. The ClarinetFest® 2022 program centered around the theme of Connecting People\, Ideas and Cultures. The conference also featured performances by the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra as well as emerging and established artists in solo and ensemble settings. \n“Chansons de la Nature pour la Clarinette” tells a story about nature as told by the clarinet’s agile voice. The French titles and basis of the pieces were inspired by the lyrical and pastoral quality of the French language and the images it invokes. The piece is also inspired by the images presented in Aesop’s fables (and Jean de la Fontain’s retelling of them); in particular\, the movement “Le Lièvre et la Tortue” tells of the slow tortoise beating the fast hare with his patience and determination. Both creatures are represented in this movement\, from the plodding of the tortoise to the quick movements of the hare. \nThe other movements also represent a variety of characters and situations from these famous fables. “Le Poisson” darts\, “Le Papillon” flutters and floats\, “L’étoile” shimmers in the night sky\, nature ‘dances’\, and “Le Serpent” is slippery and quick.  Each movement is short\, but just long enough to evoke a story and create a ‘song of nature’ for the clarinet. \nI. Les Oiseaux\nII. Le Poisson\nIII. Le Papillon\nIV. Le Lièvre et La Tortue\nV. L’Etoile\nVI. Dansez!\nVII. Le Serpent \nThis work appears on Jenni’s CD Songs Of California: Music For Winds And Piano \nPerformance by Carrie RavenStem of Chansons de la Nature pour la Clarinette during the 2020 Woodwind Fest \n“Chansons de la Nature pour la Clarinette” is available from Jenni’s website at the this link Chansons de la nature pour la clarinette – solo B-flat clarinet sheet music (jennibrandon.com)

SUMMARY:The Latin Premiere of “Double Helix” by Jenni Brandon Is Presented by The University of Costa Rica\, Costa Rica and Fernando Zúñiga.

This is the Latin American premiere of the work Double Helix. The program also includes composer Jorge Mockert. The concert performers are Fernando Zúñiga\, bassoon\, Alonso Saavedra\, piano\, Ricardo Alvarado\, percussion and Fernando Zúñiga at 7 pm\, July 13\, 2022. This is the Latin American premiere of the work Double Helix. The program also includes composer Jorge Mockert. The concert performers are Fernando Zúñiga\, bassoon\, Alonso Saavedra\, piano\, Ricardo Alvarado\, percussion. \nThe concert “Frames” program is: \nDouble Helix\, for bassoon and piano * Jenni Brandon (b. 1977) \n\nPrelude: Intertwine\nEntrechat\nDivertissement: Gentle Beauty\nSoar\nPostlude (Epilogue)\n\nEl Coco ** Fernando Zúñiga (b. 1977) \nIntermission \nSuite to play with Andrea   Jorge Mockert \n\nCandombe de la Solapa (1958-2008)\nDel barro a la ciudad\nChamamerenzón\nChacandrea\nOjo de tormenta\n\nFernando Zúñiga\, bassoon; Alonso Saavedra\, piano; Ricardo Alvarado\, percussion \n*National premiere **Pre-premiere \nDouble Helix for bassoon and piano (bassoon and piano sheet music) was commissioned in 2014 by bassoonist Christin Schillinger to premiere and perform with Jed Moss on piano. This work is inspired by the sculpture of the same name by Long Beach\, California sculptor Susan Hawkins. This sculpture (pictured on the cover of this score) depicts two separate figures dancing around each other\, weaving their stories together\, but never touching. I loved the idea of using terms that are frequently used to describe dance and began to see the curves and lines and unique topography of these sculptures as fluid and moving. The bassoon and the piano become these two dancers\, gracefully moving across a stage to tell the story of this beautiful sculpture. \nIn “Prelude: Intertwine” the figures dance around each other\, one at first (the piano)\, and then the bassoon joining in\, flowing\, and weaving in and out of each other. As they move into the “Entrechat” you can hear the fast movement of the feet as the dancer leaps from the floor\, crossing and uncrossing the feet in mid-air as represented by the repeated staccato notes throughout this section. After much joyful leaping\, the bassoon and piano take turns with solos in “Divertissement: Gentle Beauty.” Leading into the section “Soar” which begins innocuously enough\, the dancers slowly begin to climb higher and higher\, reaching a climax in this section as the bassoon dazzles with its range and the piano moves deftly from one end of the keyboard to the other. Finally\, in “Postlude (Epilogue)” the original intertwine theme returns\, allowing the dancers to shift and flow gently around each other\, gently shifting back into the still image of the sculpture as the sound fades away. \nIt was a joy to write this work for these talented musicians\, who premiered the work at the Ostin Rehearsal Room on the campus of UCLA on September 21st\, 2015. \n  \nDouble Helix is available for purchase on Jenni’s website at Double Helix – Bassoon and piano sheet music (jennibrandon.com)

The inspiration for the piece came from a poetry book written by one of Mrs. Johnson’s friends\, Bette Woolsey Castro. Her book\, The Wildflower\, was inspired by the opening of Lady Bird’s Wildflower Research Center in Austin\, Texas\, and contains a collection of poems about wildflowers and nature. \nThe five movements of The Wildflower Trio for oboe\, bassoon\, and piano (oboe\, bassoon\, piano sheet music) are based on the imagery from several of these poems. The beautiful combination of the oboe\, bassoon\, and piano lend themselves to creating distinct colors and sounds that represent the wildflowers\, hummingbirds\, and summer afternoons in quiet gardens. \nI had the honor and privilege of composing this piece for two fine musicians to premiere. Rebecca Henderson-oboe\, and Kristin Wolfe Jensen-bassoon\, have performed this piece around the world with a variety of pianists\, including at the International Double Reed Society Conference in Melbourne\, Australia in June 2004 as well as for Mrs. Johnson at her Wildflower Center in Austin\, Texas. \nWildflower Trio\, by Jenni Brandon is available on Jenni’s website at The Wildflower Trio – oboe\, bassoon\, piano sheet music (jennibrandon.com)
