Divertimento for Clarinet, Flute and Oboe - Malcolm Arnold (4th mvt)

Live performance: University of Illinois Symphony Orchestra, Victor Ho Yip, Conductor. 
“Comet Coggia” (2024) for Orchestra was inspired by the path of the Great Comet of 1874 (C/1874 H1). Discovered by the French astronomer Jérôme Eugène Coggia on April 17, 1874 in Marseille, it was visible to the naked eye by June 1874 and attentively observed in both hemispheres. As Coggia’s comet gathered strength, it caused quite a stir in the United States, and even a panic among some, so much so that Mark Twain satirized the comet in his short story "A Curious Pleasure Excursion” which was published July 6, 1874 in the New York Herald. There are many historical accounts of the comet’s path and observers noted a beautiful naked-eye tail lengths reaching 70 degrees as the comet passed closest to the Earth on July 23, 1874. 

There are many composers throughout history who have written music inspired by comets, planets and the stars. For me, in addition to the music being inspired by the path of the comet, I was also envisioning the global connectedness and unity that comes with such an event. It serves as a reminder that no matter our nationality, beliefs or location on this planet, we all look up and share the night sky and the vastness and power of the universe. 

“Comet Coggia” was commissioned by the University of Illinois Symphony Orchestra to mark the 150-year anniversary of the orchestral program at the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana.

Giuseppe Verdi - Messa di Requiem- Sanctus

An Irish Tale - Clarinet Concerto

This is an orchestral arrangement, I started right after my first string quartet in 2000. It is Beethoven's "Rondo a capriccio" or better known as "Rage Over a Lost Penny" / "Die Wuth über den verlornen Groschen" for solo piano. I had no time to finish it in 2000. But a month ago, I rediscovered it and sat down to finish it. This is the result. I hope you enjoy it. Any comments appreciated.
This is written for (2, 2, 2, +bass, 2 - 4, 2, 3, 1, timp, str).
