String Quartet No. 1, Mvts. 2 and 3
Composer: Beethoven, Ludvig van Arranger: Mietz, Joshua
Instrumentation: Quartet Instruments: Bass Clarinet, Clarinet
Genre: Romantic3 Clarinets and Bass Clarinet
Dedicated to Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz, String Quartet No. 1 in F Major, Op. 18, No. 1, was finished on June 25, 1799 with some revisions thereafter. Beethoven initially felt it to be a work in progress and commented that he had not yet “learned to write quartets properly.” Despite his perfectionism, only minor changes were made after the premier performance. The Adagio is impassioned, tragic, and dark. Karl Amenda, Beethoven’s violinist friend, revealed that the composer contemplated the tomb scene from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet when composing this operatic second movement. Toward the end of the movement, the rhythms of the solo voices become faster and, as such, become more severe. The Scherzo third movement closely resembles the playful quality found in Haydn’s quartets and is most closely aligned with the harmonic structures of the first movement.
A clarinetist approaching this work faces many of the same challenges of his string-playing colleagues including: interpretation, note length, tempi, dynamics, and all other musical decisions. To further complicate matters, clarinetists must also discuss and agree upon breathing strategies and alternative fingerings. While this work is orchestrated for three B-flat soprano clarinets and a B-flat bass clarinet with a low C extension, it may be performed by a larger clarinet-choir as well. Throughout the original work, there are places where a string player performs double or even triple stops and those notes have been included in this transcription for two reasons: the first is to provide options to the players performing in a quartet to add a slight variance in color, the second is to further enhance the harmony when the work is performed by more than four clarinetists. It is remarkable to observe the subtle variances in flexibility and tone when performed by a four-person ensemble as opposed to a larger group. This edition does not vary from the original in key or, to the extent possible, range with the exception of a few octaves that have been transposed to better promote facility on the clarinet.

Sextet, Op. 81b
Composer: Beethoven, Ludvig van Arranger: Ardovino, Lori
Instrumentation: Ensemble Instruments: Alto Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Clarinet, Contrabass Clarinet, Contralto Clarinet , Eb Clarinet
Genre: RomanticE-flat Clarinet, Solo B-flat Clarinet, 3 B-flat Clarinets, Alto Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Contralto Clarinet and Contrabass Clarinet
Beethoven’s Sextet for Two Horns and String Quartet, Op. 81b is a bit of an oddity in the composer’s catalog. The sextet for the very old-fashioned instrumentation of two horns, two violins, viola and cello, is especially rare. The work seems to have been written around 1795, in the period when Beethoven was beginning to make his way in Viennese society as a composer and keyboard virtuoso after a period of study with Haydn. The work has the light-hearted, easy-going tone of the serenade/divertimento tradition, although the way that Beethoven writes for the horns makes the Sextet unusual. In this work, the horns are featured, with brilliant fanfares and technically challenging passages, while the four strings are relegated to a subsidiary role. In this arrangement, the Eb clarinet and a solo Bb clarinet play the role of the horns, while the rest of the choir assume the position of the string parts.

String Quartet No. 1, Mvt. 1
Composer: Beethoven, Ludvig van Arranger: Mietz, Joshua
Instrumentation: Quartet Instruments: Bass Clarinet, Clarinet
Genre: Romantic3 Clarinets and Bass Clarinet
Dedicated to Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz, String Quartet No. 1 in F Major, Op. 18, No. 1 was finished on June 25, 1799 with some revisions thereafter. Beethoven initially felt it to be a work in progress and commented that he had not yet “learned to write quartets properly”. Despite his perfectionism, only minor changes were made after the premier performance.
Compositionally, this work is best aligned with the string quartets of Mozart and Haydn – two of Beethoven’s largest influences; however, a seasoned listener can feel his strain against the established norms of the classical period. The opening motive of the first movement is a six-note turn that was originally heard over 130 times throughout the movement. The composer later scaled this number down to 109 in subsequent revisions. It follows closely to a sonata allegro form and, with the exception of his typical dramatic dynamic changes, follows the patterns established by his predecessors.

String Quartet No. 1, Mvt. 4
Composer: Beethoven, Ludvig van Arranger: Mietz, Joshua
Instrumentation: Quartet Instruments: Bass Clarinet, Clarinet
Genre: Romantic3 Clarinets and Bass Clarinet
Dedicated to Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz, String Quartet No. 1 in F Major, Op. 18, No. 1 was finished on June 25, 1799 with some revisions thereafter. Beethoven initially felt it to be a work in progress and commented that he had not yet “learned to write quartets properly”. Despite his perfectionism, only minor changes were made after the premier performance.
The opening of this Allegro finale pays homage to Mozart with its wild swirls in the solo voices followed by a response of the whole ensemble. As the movement develops, the ensemble plays what we later discover as Beethoven’s true voice. Like the first movement, the last movement affords the ensemble dramatic dynamic changes and driving motor devices. The virtuosity required of the players makes this the most challenging of any of the movements in the quartet.
