Description:
A must-have for Clarinet. This Sonata in 4 movements comes from a group of 3 Sonatas for wind instruments (oboe, clarinet and bassoon) composed in May and june 1921. They are the last in the catalogue of Saint-Saëns' works. In this first movement of the sonata, be careful not to accent the quaver in the Barcarolle rhythm so that the phrase doesn't become too heavy. In the central section, you should be more 'feverish' but master your touch carefully so that the result is always limpid.
