Die Gardinenpredigt (The Curtain Lecture), op. 268, Burleske

for clarinet, bassoon, and piano

by Julius Fucik (1872-1916) - Czech composer

This piece is shorter (under 5 minutes) and features a back-and-forth dialogue between the two wind voices, almost as if the two are arguing. Fucik's language is tonal, and a straightforward use of rhythm marks this piece which is appropriate for advanced high school players, or early undergraduates.
