Description
For this project, I commissioned and recorded five new works for contrabassclarinet from five different composers. Composition parameters were given to each
composer before they started writing which detailed what needed to be included in each
work. Four of the composers were asked to utilize a single, difficult aspect of playing the
instrument, which included intonation, low note technique and response, phrasing, and
articulation. For the fifth work, the composer was asked to incorporate all parameters of
the project. Because of the differences between contrabass clarinet designs, I recorded
each work three times using the Leblanc Vito, Leblanc “Paperclip”, and Selmer Model 41
contrabass clarinets to demonstrate that the works were adaptable and playable. In this
paper, I will outline the parameters of the project, describe the instruments used for
recording and provide a performance guide for each work. It is my hope that these works
will provide an enjoyable way for future contrabass clarinetists to become more
proficient performers of the instrument.

Description
In an effort to provide greater representation to Latin American musicians, this recording and performance guide provides commentary on three works for clarinet by composers of Mexican ethnicity, commissioned and recorded by the author. The works presented are scored for solo clarinet, clarinet & piano, and clarinet, cello, & piano.
Each piece seeks to communicate and explore current sociopolitical issues related to Mexico, and, like this project as a whole, derive their inspiration from La Onda, a multidisciplinary artistic movement in Mexico, translating as the “wave,” “sound wave,” or “the force” that emerged as part of the 1960s and 1970s North American counterculture. La Onda music emerged as a reflection and consequence of marginalized experiences living in the United States, and is representative of ways the broader public and Latinos have claimed music as their own. As music has historically provided an arena for exploring gender, class, sexuality, and race politics for minority communities, specifically Mexicans in the United States and abroad, music continues to afford a mechanism for communicating the counterfactual in the present day. In this context, this guide synthesizes a broader collaboration with composers to create new, narrative-based repertoire that provides accessibility, greater awareness, and lasting representation to a demographic that has historically been underserved within the classical canon.
