In honor of Chris Gryme's recent visit to ECU, and his musical artistry, I thought I'd share this rollicking movement to a suite for solo e-flat clarinet called "Breaking In Pieces."  This music was deemed unplayable (and not worth the effort) by the person for whom the suite was composed. It sat on the shelf for 18 years, and when Chris asked if I had any solo pieces.  I gave him the set and he was able to sight read this heretofore "unplayable" music.  Thanks for your artistry, Chris!!!!
