Biography
Biography
Clews, Eileen
Eileen Clews was a music specialist in Warwickshire schools before studying piano and clarinet at the Birmingham School of Music in the early 80's as a mature student. After graduation she taught both instruments to private pupils at home and A level students at the North Warwickshire College, whilst continuing piano and composition studies with Michael Freyhan in London. Eileen's first published composition was a 'Partita' for French Horn, written for her son Richard who was then a music student before going on to become Principal Horn at the Royal Opera House. This work has been in the exam syllabus for the Associated Board, Guildhall and Trinity since the late 80's, along with other works for horn, trombone, tuba and oboe. Eileen's works for woodwind were composed during her time studying composition with Edwin Roxburgh. For her teaching she made arrangements for ensemble groups to encourage players of all levels to enjoy making music together. Alongside trios for flutes and clarinets are a quartet for tubas and a brass quintet. Eileen passed away in November 2021.

This arrangement by Carlo Martelli is of the overture to one of the three suites that comprise the Water Music that Handel wrote in 1717 for a celebration on the Thames.

Handel arr. Martelli – Heart, The Seat of Soft Delight from Acis and Galatea (String Quartet)
This beautiful aria, arranged by Carlo Martelli, expresses Galatea's heartbreak at the loss of her beloved Acis, who has been slain by the monster Polyphemus.
These ingenious arrangements by Ian Lawrence combine the original instrumental and choral lines to create full and varied textures for brass.
Tuba Quartet
This'Partita consists of three short movements - a showy Con Brio, a more reflective Andante and a sparkling Giocoso with a strong rhythmic interest. With attractive melodic lines passed between the parts and varied syncopated rhythms it makes a good show piece for instruments that are usually only given bass lines to play. All parts are of equal difficulty, so making it an ideal piece for study and performance at a brass workshop. For more advanced players it provides good ensemble practice with varied dynamics and tempos, and is useful as a light-hearted encore.

Handel arr. Martelli – Arrival of the Queen of Sheba from Solomon (String Quartet)
A slightly eccentric and unidiomatic arrangement of this popular piece, the distribution of the parts being somewhat unusual. Notwithstanding, it has proved to be one of the most demanded of all Carlo Martelli's many arrangements.

Handel arr. Martelli – Would You Gain The Tender Creature from Acis and Galatea (String Quartet)
This exquisitely beautiful aria, arranged by Carlo Martelli, is sung by Damon to mentor Acis in the best way to capture Galatea's heart.
