Two Rags for B-flat Bass Clarinet and Piano - Brian Dykstra

Brian Dykstra Two Bass Clarinet Rags

Concert rags by pianist and composer Brian Dykstra, perfect for a bass clarinet recital. Composed in the style of Joplin, but with a more contemporary style incorporating elements of later jazz styles. The Curly Maple Rag is slow and melancholy, while the Lancashire Rag is upbeat with a raucous coda section featuring the low end of the bass clarinet range.
