Carter, Elliott: Steep Steps for Solo Bass Clarinet
Premiered in 2000 at Weill Recital Hall, New York, by Virgil Blackwell, and recorded by him on Bridge Records. The piece was composed for Blackwell. The composer states: “Its title comes from the fact that, unlike the other woodwind instruments, the clarinet overblows at the twelfth, a large interval that forms the basis of much of this composition.” 3 minutes.
