His compositions for clarinet duet and trio are some of the most worthwhile written for the medium. They are full-scale works of considerable substance and were doubtless intended for performance by professionals.LaPorta was a jazz clarinetist and composer. At one point it looked as if he would be one of the leading clarinetists in modern jazz, but he chose the educator’s chair instead. He was a fixture at Berklee College of Music for many decades and played a pivotal role in the earliest stage of formalized American jazz education, shaping the unique Berklee curriculum. He wrote 15 books on music education and more than two hundred compositions.Holmes is a musician, saxophonist, educator and musical mentor. “Tuxedo” is a musical score for two alto saxophones. It contains musical notation across three staves for each saxophone, including notes, rhythms, dynamics and other performance instructions. The score consists of multiple pages of music for the two instruments to play together.Kennan was an American composer, author, educator and professor. His compositions include works for orchestra, chamber ensemble and solo instrument as well as songs and choral music. His “Sonata for Trumpet and Piano” is part of the standard repertoire for many collegiate trumpet studios.“Moon River” is a song composed by Mancini with lyrics by Johnny Mercer. It was originally performed by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” winning an Academy Award for Best Original Song. Mercer wrote three sets of lyrics, his favorite version inspired by the full moon over a river near his childhood home in Savannah, Ga.Hindemith was a German and American composer, music theorist, teacher, violist and conductor. As a composer, he became a major advocate of the Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) style of music in the 1920s. Hindemith composed “Concert Piece for Two Alto Saxophones” in 1933. Sigurd Raschèr, one of the best-known classical saxophonists of the 20th century, commissioned the work from Hindemith.“Salamander” (2019) is a sequel to “Jackdaw,” a piece that Siegel wrote 24 years earlier. The piece starts with a slow, dreamy section that is interrupted by a quick and lively section and that finally returns to a palindrome version of the first slow section.For more information, contact FSU’s Department of Music at 301-687-4109.
