3 clarinets in Bb SKU: M7.VGH-2341-71 Pour 3 clarinettes en Sib. Composed by Rene Staar. Sheet music. Score and parts. Op. 10 / 1. Duration 18'. Verlagsgruppe Hermann #VGH 2341-71. Published by Verlagsgruppe Hermann (M7.VGH-2341-71). ISBN 9790206660757.A stay of almost five years in the Swiss UN city Geneva led to the conception of the composer's first large-scale cyclical project, the 'Divertissements Suisses'. The first of these 'Divertissements' for three clarinets was composed in autumn 1983 and took its inspiration from the spiritual proximity to a place by Lake Geneva that had served Igor Stravinsky as refuge during the First World Warin the same way that classicism in general also influenced the piece. Two minuets, a two-part song form, and a rondo thoroughly follow the 250-year-old tradition of the Viennese classical divertimento, although the unique harmonic structure speaks the musical language of the late 20th century.
