- Hi, I'm Alice McDonalds
and I'm a clarinetist from
Great Barrington, Massachusetts.
This summer, I had the
pleasure and privilege
of participating in NSO SMI.
And as part of the program,
I took part in virtual
chamber music coachings
in which I studied Samuel
Barber's summer music
for woodwind quintet.
With the help of our wonderful
coach, Jamie Roberts,
and a horn player who turns
out to be a very skilled
video editor as well,
my group put together a virtual
performance of the work.
Our intention was to
create a musical sketch
or skeleton of sorts
by using only the main voice instruments.
And as you will see,
incorporating just a
little bit of humor too.
So here's Samuel Barber
summer music for wind quintet.
I hope you enjoy.
