Unlike the other orchestral woodwinds, however, it was not frequently employed by composers as an instrument to be used in chamber works. Since chamber music is an important vehicle for most musicians it may be of interest to orchestral bass clarinetists, in order to have more performing opportunities, to locate chamber works which include this member of the clarinet family. After searching through a variety of sources this writer discovered a vast number of chamber works with bass clarinet, many of them composed in the last twenty years. This document places all of these works into an organized reference tool useful for identifying chamber works toperform. The bibliography includes published and unpublished works.The bibliography includes approximately 1000 chamber pieces which have been entered into a database. The information on these chamber compositions has been gathered from various locations: library searches, internet lists of national composer groups, internet list servers, and other types of internet searches. The chamber works in the bibliography are grouped in chapters according to the size of the ensemble and within each chapter byinstrumentation type. The size of the works listed ranges from duos (excluding bass clarinet with piano) to ensembles of up to twelve performers. The instruments required for performance of each piece are listed. In another section of the document the works are catalogued by composer name.The final chapter of this document examines the emergence of the bass clarinet at the turn of the century as a virtuosic instrument in the orchestra rather than as an instrument intended primarily to reinforce the bass voice. A summary is provided of how eight selected orchestral composers used the bass clarinet in a prominent manner. Finally, a comparison is made by decade to find a possible correlation between the time that these orchestral works appeared and the composition date of the chamber pieces listed in the bibliography. 2000 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1363864154 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1363864154 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
