Minor, Janice

The motivation for this recording came to Janice Minor upon a study of her inspiring mentors and teachers, notably Ben Armato, clarinetist with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra for 45 years. Ben compiled the solos in the Recital Clarinetist, published by Carl Fisher, to provide a resource of clarinet repertoire for students of the clarinet. This recording serves two purposes: the first is to provide audio recordings (a companion to the published music) of the repertoire
for pedagogical learning, the second is a tribute to Ben Armato, a distinguished musician, teacher, and mentor.

Clarinetist, Janice L. Minor enjoys an active career as a solo recitalist, chamber musician, orchestral player, clinician, and music educator. She has performed and appeared in a wide variety of venues and festivals throughout the United States and Europe, including the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Rococo Theater in Schwetzingen Germany, the Puccini Theater in Italy, the Interlochen Center for the Arts, the Aspen Music Festival, the Lucca Music Festival in Lucca, Italy, and the Saarburger Serenaden Music Festival in Saarburg, Germany. As an orchestral player, she has performed with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the Cincinnati Pops, the Cincinnati Opera, and on soundtracks for The Discovery Channel and National Geographic.
