Early One Morning
Traditional, arr. B. Appleby and S. Rogal
Phrasing and style will be the main challenges of this arrangement of a wonderful traditional tune.
The clarinets play the opening statement of the melody, in a range that lies beautifully on their instruments.
Later, after a key change from B flat to E flat, the melody is played by the lower instruments, first by themselves, and then with a flute countermelody.
