Joshua Ranz, principal clarinet of the New West Symphony has created these fabulous arrangements of Bach’s cello suites for bass clarinet. We think it gives them a very friendly quality.
The Sarabande is a clever arrangement for 2 bass clarinets, with Josh performing both parts in a split screen. It highlights one big difference between string instruments and wind instruments: you can play 2 notes at once on a string instrument but you can’t on a wind. If you love the Sarabande with cello, you really should hear this unique and masterful interpretation by Josh. Listen and let Joshua know how you enjoyed them!
