LazyTones

Clarinet Quartet for Concert performance

Hear an excerpt from .LazyTones (Mp3)

Want to wipe the cobwebs off your concert program?
LazyTones is that perfect, laid-back number every audience loves and every clarinet section wants to play.
Picture this: Lights low, a lazy shuffle groove kicks in on the bass clarinet,
three clarinets lean in with a bluesy, velvet-smooth melody that just... swings.
It's 2 a.m. in a jazz club. It's Sunday afternoon with nowhere to be. It's cool without trying too hard.
This isn't hard-bop gymnastics. This is pure feel.
Why players love it:
It sits beautifully - Written idiomatically for clarinet quartet, with soulful lines for Bb 1, 2, and 3 and a bass part that finally gets to be the star, driving the whole groove.
Instantly rewarding - Accessible for good intermediate to advanced groups, but sounds fully professional from the first read-through. No 50 hours of rehearsal needed.
Crowd-pleaser guaranteed - Perfect as a concert contrast piece, an encore, a festival show-stopper, or background music that actually makes people stop and listen.
If your quartet can do swing, smear, and smile - you can play LazyTones.
Cool charts are hard to find for clarinet quartet.
Most are either too classical or too corny.
LazyTones is the real thing - authentic lazy jazz/blues with style, space, and swagger.
Add some late-night cool to your repertoire.
LazyTones. Lay back and let it swing.
