Synopsis

Product Description
Pianist/composer Patrick Beckman's celebration of the Mississippi basin, Big Muddy Suite for Clarinet & Piano, is as musically diverse as the region it depicts. Beckman's last album Street Dance (2008, Produced by Bob Lord), was praised by Gramophone Magazine, stating '[His] craftsmanship is remarkable, and Beckman has the pianistic chops, as it were, to bring it all off.'

He is joined forces here by Grammy-award winning clarinetist Richard Stoltzman. Big Muddy is a romping chamber suite that defies traditional genre classification, blending classical, jazz, rock, and R&B into a unique and blissful musical experience. Stoltzman and Beckman take the through-written piece to greater depths with their improvisational flourishes throughout. The multi-dimensional Big Muddy is rounded out by exclusive photo and video footage from the Boston studio sessions, plus PDF study scores of the music heard on this CD.
