CLSW001 Ten Devon Pints - Various

£25.99

Ten Devon Pints is the result of a project that brought together ten composers and ten Devon breweries to inspire ten brewery-themed pieces for solo Bb clarinet. The aim was to create new music which was equally accessible and exciting, whilst celebrating the rich heritage of Devon's brewing industry.

The pieces are of varying difficulty, some folk-inspired, some more lyrical and some exploring extended techniques. The commissioned composers take a range of approaches to their compositions, from musically representing the brewing process, (complete with the sounds of pumps and tastings!) to highlighting the community spirit of the breweries. The result is a unique, diverse compilation of music that celebrates Devon, its people and its beers!

The complete collection was premiered by Sarah Watts at Breweries across Devon in March 2023. She has also recorded the pieces on the Cuillin Sound label, which can be downloaded here: https://sarahwatts1.bandcamp.com
