About this Event
Bass Clarinet Festival: the unifying force of the bass clarinet
The Bass Clarinet Festival is a recurring event that gives the bass clarinet a platform for contemporary music. The instrument can perform solos and accompaniments, and like a chameleon, it can blend with other instruments, vocals, or electronics; it's like a jukebox full of unusual sounds.
