The Native Hens (Clarinet Quartet)

The Tasmanian native hen is also known as the 'turbo chook'. They are a flightless bird that has red, rather beady, scary eyes. They can also run quite fast, which of course they need to be able to do considering they are flightless. This piece is for clarinet quartet.

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