“A lyric prayer for Peace to the Moon Goddess.” The famous, exalted soprano aria from Vincenzo Bellini’s opera Norma. Arranged for flute and clarinet, with the flute taking the aria part. This flute and clarinet duet sheet music includes score and parts.
From the Sept. 2010 issue of "The Clarinet" , the magazine of the International Clarinet Association
by Gregory Barrett
Duets for Flute and Clarinet. Arranged by Joe Armstrong and Liz Leehey from works of Beethoven, Bellini, Bizet, Cardillo, Catalani, Donizetti, Dvojak, Mascagni, Mozart, and Verdi.
The JB Linear catalog of woodwind chamber music focuses on providing small ensemble versions of well-known works that were originally for more players. This sort of arrangement, as the publisher's name implies, reduces music to a more linear style. The essence of the music is retained for you and your favorite duet, trio, or quartet buddies, but the full harmonic and textural richness of the original is lessened.
Flutist Joe Armstrong and clarinetist Liz Leehey have done a good job of retaining the most essential elements in their duet arrangements that draw mostly from well-known operatic works. The Beethoven arrangement from his Piano Trio, Op. 1, No. 1 is also very satisfying.
In addition to the dozen arrangements that I played through, the online catalog lists four arrangements of works by J.S. Bach that I have not seen.
The arrangements are of medium difficulty and are best suited for friendly get- togethers as opposed to concert performance. The lack of sostenuto that a piano or larger ensemble can provide would be conspicuous in the concert hall
