This is an updated edition of Francis Poulenc 's 1962 work Sonata For Clarinet And Piano , edited by Millan Sachania . Featuring the full score and separate Clarinet part, this exclusive edition also includes a download card, giving you instant online access to demonstration and accompaniment tracks.

Other amendments like the redistribution of notes between the Piano staves, e xtending slurs so as to incorporate second or final tied notes, in contrast to the previous edition. At all points, Sachania has aimed to reproduce an authoritative and accurate score that is at once playable and a reflection of what Poulenc himself may have intended. What makes this edition of Sonata For Clarinet And Piano really special is the unique download card that provides exclusive online access to demonstration and accompaniment audio tracks. Professionally-recorded by renowned clarinettist Joy Farrall and pianist Huw Watkins, the demonstration track allows you to hear exactly how the piece as a whole should sound, before the independent Piano-only track lets you take the place of the clarinettist in your very own performance.
