Theme and Variations on Shenandoah [Alf:00-48655]

In these variations for B-flat clarinet, percussion, and piano, the haunting theme of the folk song "Shenandoah" begins in the clarinet. The piano follows with all three instruments coming together in a lush setting. The five variations were inspired by famous pieces: "Take Five", "Canon in D", the "Minute Waltz", Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2, and "The Entertainer".
