Prélude Valsé et Irish Reel for Clarinet and Piano by Raoul LaParra. Alphonse Leduc, 1927, SS, 10 + 4 pages. Raoul Laparra (1876-1943) was a French composer. This piece was written for the Morceau de Concours, Concours du Conservatoire National de Musique in 1927, and is dedicated to Professor August Perier. A somewhat unusual juxtaposition of material. The Waltz (Moderato) is followed immediately by an accompanied Cadence ad libertum which leads to the Irish Reel (Allegretto vivo). Early college level. (C1516)
