Peter Allen and Richard Hornsby, two of Atlantic Canada’s most experienced performers, present a concert on piano and clarinet of works not originally written for their instruments, some of which are considered major repertoire.

For centuries, composers themselves have transformed their own works for uses in different settings and to benefit from sales of their music following trends. In fact, the great composer Beethoven was particularly successful in creating many different versions of his most popular works so that different individual and ensembles could access his music. In the case of some instruments, there are periods of history where not a great deal of repertoire was created due to historical trends. Adapted music can fill the holes of music history and allow repertoire of certain composers to be accessed by more instrumentalists.
