After Hours (Clarinet)

Following on from the very successful After Hours piano volumes, Pam Wedgwood has now penned eight atmospheric pieces for the intermediate clarinettist. They are ideal for teacher or pupil and provide a perfect follow-on forthose that have used and enjoyed Pam’s highly acclaimed Jazzin’ About series.

The book contains piano accompaniments, but for extra sophistication a CD of backing tracks is also included. Each piece within thecollection has two different backing tracks: the first (full performance) includes the backing track along with the instrumental melody; the second (backing only) presents the backing track alone. The full performance trackisprovided to help the player to the learn the melody and its interaction with the accompaniment; the melody is played on a marimba to avoid dominating the acoustic ‘live’ instrument for those players who choose toplay along with this version of the backing.
