AVAILABLE TODAY: "Brian Landrus Plays Ellington & Strayhorn"
Here is the latest release from #silversteinartist Brian Landrus and his collection of low winds. Brian arranged the Ellington and Strayhorn compositions and then overdubbed multiple flutes, alto flutes, bass flutes, bass clarinets, contra alto clarinets, and bass saxophones to create a woodwind orchestra.
“There's an elegance and sophistication to Ellington and Strayhorn’s music,” Landrus says. “But it’s mixed in with this darker quality that Mingus always recognized – these harmonic rubs and beautiful textures. I definitely wanted to add my own colors to these compositions, but I wasn’t trying to reinvent each song. I felt the unusual timbres of the woodwinds would give them a unique atmosphere that hadn’t been heard before on these tunes. I let those sonic qualities guide me in the direction that I felt would be most respectful for Strayhorn and Duke.”

The long awaited results of the SILVERSTEIN CLARINET CONTEST are finally here!
It was another successful celebration of talent filled with vibrant bursts of energy and individuality from all parts of the world.
The level of competition was especially high this year, and it was apparent that each and every contestant, as well as the judges, really gave it their very best. For this reason, we’ve added a new category of winners called “Special Recognition” to acknowledge a few extra talents worth highlighting.
We are grateful to every contestant for blessing us with their talent, hard-work, and passion. We applaud their courage to stand tall on the world stage and let their music speak.
And a special thank you to this year’s judges for allowing time in their schedules to make this contest happen. Year after year, our judges play a vital role in upholding a high standard for integrity, transparency, and fairness. This contest simply cannot exist without their selflessness and love for the future generation of clarinet.
