This edition consists of a piano score and clarinet part.
From the composer:
"Chorea is an imaginary ballet in concertino form for clarinet and string orchestra. Using the term “entrée de ballet,” characteristic of 18th-century opera-ballet, it unfolds in three contrasting movements, with a cadenza linking the slow movement to the finale.The first “entrée” is a continuous movement of funk rhythms that develop over an incessant pulse.
The second “entrée” is a pas de deux in which chromatic lines intertwine in the mystery of the night.
A highly narrative, rhythmically free cadenza-pantomime makes the transition between this world of night to the joy of the final "entrée." This is a rondo with two themes, one of pure exultant vitality, the other a quasi-vocal line. It is in this climate of sunny entertainment that my miniature ballet concertante ends."
