Review
Contemporary British Clarinet Music CD Moods for Solo Clarinet David Golightly Modrana Music Publishers Ltd
The most substantial and ambitious piece in this collection is undoubtedly David Golightly's Moods (1980) for solo clarinet, written for Roger Heaton who plays this rather difficult and technically demanding piece with consummate ease and assured technique. Golightly relies on a number of modern techniques, such as quarter tones, multiphonics, glissandi, breath tones and the like without ever giving the impression of mere experiment. Quite the contrary, each mood is vividly depicted with imagination and poetical insight. Obviously, to my ears at least, this is a major addition to the repertoire. Rob Barnet British Music Review
PERFORMANCE NOTES Moods for Solo Clarinet.

Reviews

Flute Concerto. Orchestra of the Square Chapel, Soloist Stuart Coldwell Conductor Lawrence Killian. Not so long ago the prospect of a new composition, a piece of "contemporary" music in an orchestral concert such as last night's would have filled most members of the audience with apprehension, if not dread. How times have changed. Recent generations of composers have turned away from atonal astringencies and are actually communicating with concertgoers again. This was certainly the case with the main item on last night's programme by the enterprising Orchestra of the Square Chapel. Already notable for unusual repertoire it now had a world premiere to offer.

This was the "Concerto for Flute" by the Cheshire composer David Golightly and while it was an undoubted challenge for soloist, orchestra and for conductor Lawrence Killian, it presented the audience with no barrier to enjoyment. Not that the concerto was a piece of easy listening. Its three, ambitious movements had material that ranged from spiky, modern rhythms to plangent passages based on ancient modalities. The composer was aiming at and frequently achieved a spiritual dimension, especially in the slow central movement. Elsewhere the orchestra was used to provide a pulsating rhythmic platform for the solo flute's leaping phrases. The final movement was tantamount to a concerto grosso for flute and tuned percussion. In this the excellent performance throughout by flautist Stuart Coldwell was matched by fine playing on vibraphone and xylophone by Graham Butcher and Ronan McKee. Not only was the concerto a premiere, it was, the composer informed us, the first time an established English orchestra had played any of his original music.
