Preludio #2 for Clarinet and Piano by Javier Zalba. Advance Music, 2010, SS, 6 + 2 pages + CD. Written as a duo for Bb clarinet and piano, this piece exemplifies contemporary Cuban chamber music, offering a variety of technical and interpretative possibilities for both instrumentalists. The work features the use of polytonality, yet it also includes huge intervallic leaps and improvisational fragments. A rewarding recital selection for proficient players! The CD has a performance by the composer. (C1691)
