What's In A Name

Beyond Noend with Errante features international recording artist, F. Gerard Errante, who Musical America described as "one of our finest clarinetists, possessing a virtuoso technique, beautiful rich sound, and flawless musicality" and Living Music described simply as "a MONSTER of a performer."  Beyond Noend with Errante includes ten compositions for acoustic and electronic clarinet uniquely woven by Errante into an aural fabric that points the way to a new millennium in music.

This evocative recording features the world recording premier of three new works by contemporary new music composers Jane Brockman, Robert Scott Thompson, and Peter Terry.  The CD also features a new work, Silent Tears, by F. Gerard Errante and John Toomey that was commissioned for this recording.   Beyond Noend with Errante blurs the line between contemporary classical and jazz to create a listening space beyond genre, somewhere in time.
