A delightful recording of music for flute and clarinet.

The Scott/Garrison Duo, featuring clarinetist Shannon Scott and flutist Leonard Garrison, has performed together since 1988, with a long commitment to contemporary American music. They have been featured at many national conferences of the National Flute Association, College Music Society, and National Association of College Wind and Percussion instructors. Ms. Scott is clarinetist for the Solstice Wind Quintet and principal clarinet of the Walla Walla Symphony and the Eastern Music Festival. Leonard Garrison is on the faculty of the Lionel Hampton School of Music at the University of Idaho, flutist in the Northwest Wind Quintet, and principal flutist of the Walla Walla Symphony. For this recording they perform works for flute and clarinet, flute and marimba, and flute, clarinet, and piano, including works commissioned by their duo. They are joined by pianist Rajung Yang and marimbist Stuart Gerber. This is their fourth recording for Albany Records.

"University of Idaho flute professor Leonard Garrison and Washington State University clarinet professor Shannon Scott submit their fourth Albany release as the Scott-Garrison Duo…The all-American lineup of modernist and ultramodernist pieces ranges from the adventurous to the abstract, presenting the kind of exploratory harmonic language, thematic contour, and special effects appreciated in academia…Scott and Garrison share a palpable musical connection, reading each other well, ably navigating the technical obstacles of each score, and together creating an array of mesmerizing colors. In addition, Yang and Gerber are skilled collaborators who match the enthusiasm and the phrasing of the soloist…" (American Record Guide)
