Mark Goddard’s Party Pieces for Clarinet and Piano is a collection of six pieces; energetic and full of fun, these jolly tunes range from the slow ‘Chalumeau Blues’ to the syncopated variations on ‘Go Tell Aunt Nancy’.
Aimed at players working between Grades 2 and 5, these pieces are not only accessible but also musically engaging, making them ideal for both performance and examination settings.
The piano part has been kept deliberately simple, while allowing gifted pianists potential for improvisation.
