Rhapsody on Cue 

Ryan Fraley
Grade 3-4

Here's an ebullient and flashy solo feature for clarinet and big band. The ensemble swings brightly with intricate but accessible orchestrations while the bouncy solo shines with riffs and glissandi. A transcription of the improvised portion of the solo is provided. The top trumpet note is A. This is serious literature for any clarinetist to consider!
