SEEKING CLARINET
PLAYER for SWEENEY TODD Where: LAKELAND
COMMUNITY COLLEGE When: 2-3
Orchestra Rehearsals - TBA Tech Rehearsals – Mon-Thu, Jan
28-31 Performances – Feb 1, 2, 8, 9, 15,
16 @ 8:00 pm; Feb 3, 10, 17 @ 2:00 pm Description:
Director Martin Friedman and I are blessed with a remarkable cast for this
undertaking of Sweeney Todd. The talent of the other instrumentalists is
exceptionally strong. To fill out this pit, I need an accomplished
clarinet player. This is a paid engagement with a stipend comparable to
other local theaters. We are performing
the reduced orchestration (also by Jonathan Tunick, the original
orchestrator). In scaling this orchestration from the original 26 players
down to nine, the parts are remarkably challenging both in terms of technique
and stamina. Because this orchestration does not require doubling, I am
looking for a strong player whose principle instrument is clarinet. This
piece is also exceptionally challenging from a rhythm perspective requiring
flexibility and strong ensemble listening skills. If you are
interested in auditioning to play for this engagement, call Larry Goodpaster at
216-253-2077 or e-mail me at larry_goodpaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxx. Thanks for your
interest and participation. Everyone else, I encourage to come see an
outstanding production! Larry |
