Today's guest on the podcast is Barbara Borowicz, who is an international performing artist with a specialization in the work of Karlheinz Stockhausen's "Harlekin" for solo clarinet. This work involves not only 50 minutes of challenging, memorized music, but also dance, acting, stage lighting effects, and even an iconic costume. We discuss how Barbara came to love the piece, why it should be performed more often, how to get started with this type of music if you're interested in performing it, and other similar pieces that might be of interest in this genre.

It's your choice, asking people to vote up front means it's heard by more people. However, as a first impression then followed by an advertisement, left me impatient trying to find out what this awesome product was. Thankfully you said "Reed Case" or I would've had to wait even longer for the answer. As someone who knows someone who plays clarinet, I would recommend they listen to the show.
