Mr Echidna (Clarinet Quartet)

A clarinet quartet inspired by the very cute and unusual Australian animal, the echidna. Echidnas waddle along fairly slowly and keep to themselves. They are an egg laying mammal with spines that hibernates in winter. This piece has swing and classical elements.

Instrumentation: Clarinet Quartet: Clarinet 1, Clarinet 2, Clarinet 3 and Bass Clarinet.

Composer: Fiona Hickie
