On the Guadalquivir-clarinet solo

Landis Maitland-Whitelaw-On the Guadalquivir
On the Guadalquivir was originally written for voice and guitar. This adaptation is for unaccompanied clarinet. It depicts a river in Spain and starts out with a pastoral section reflecting on the feeling of being beside this river and then breaks into melodic chorus/verse sections.

Another Day in Paradise

Another Day in Paradise

Another day in Paradise - Landis Maitland-Whitelaw

This piece is a contemporary-classical solo piece for the clarinet. It is the feelings I had when I was anchored off the shore in Barbuda. Sun, warm, pristine beaches, fish jumping out of the water, and sea turtles. You can get the feeling that you are gently rocking on the boat.You can hear a representation of the song here on SoundCloud.

The Sparrow & the Lark

The Sparrow & the Lark

The Sparrow and the Lark

The Sparrow & the Lark was inspired when I was sitting on the porch in my backyard and watching the birds around the birdbath and how they interacted with elements around them. After I wrote this piece I expanded it into an orchestral piece that I named Birds at the Bath.

Old & New

Old & New

Landis Maitland-Whitelaw - Old and New

Old & New was originally composed for two guitars one electric and the other classical to play with a friend of mine. I transformed it into a solo classical guitar solo so that I was able to play it by myself. You will find questions and answers being presented and this is due to the original duality of the piece.

Landis Maitland-Whitelaw - Malaguena

Malaguena comes from a Spanish Dance which is very spirited. This Malaguena is in contrast is very Moody, it creeps in slow and leaps to fast and ends on a satisfying hush.
