ABRSM Clarinet Grade 8 Piano Accompaniments
on: January 22, 2024, 07:03:58 PM
Hi

I'm new here so sorry if I've posted this in the wrong place.

My daughter is currently studying and working towards her ABRSM grade 8 clarinet. We are trying to source piano accompaniments for the pieces she has chosen. ABRSM do not supply accompaniments for this grade. I've searched everywhere I can think online to no avail. I have spoken with a number of pianists local to us with aim of paying them for their time to make a recording for us, however all say the repertoire is too time consuming to learn.

ABRSM are being less than helpful.

I am at a loss to know what to try next. Any help advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated. If you where I can find the pieces or know someone that could make a recording that would be a great help.

The pieces are:
Francisco Gomez, Lorito Caprice
Richard Rodney Bennett, Ballad in Memory of Shirley Horn
Rachel Matthews, Listen Through the Rustling Leaves


Thanks in advance

Gary

When ABRSM closed their forums its members set up a new one here: https://instrumentalists.freeforums.net/

It's no longer affiliated with AB but many of its members teach their exams, so maybe someone there can help.
