The Chakra Suite is an original work for clarinet and piano. Published by Clifton Edition, it was written in July 2020, and has seven movements, one for each chakra, with each representing the character of that particular chakra; from the bright solidity of the Root Chakra, and the pulsating heart-beat of the Heart Chakra, through to the frenetic ‘chatty’ quality of the Throat Chakra, and the finality and defiance of the Crown Chakra.

The music offers a brief snap-shot of this fascinating ancient energy system. Each movement is named after its Sanskrit title. Dedicated to clarinettist Nadia Barbosa and pianist Yuki Negishi, you can find out more about it by clicking the link below.
