Glimpses from the Time of Covid-19
by Nell Clowder

for B-flat clarinet and piano

Glimpses was written early in the pandemic, spring of 2020. Each glimpse is one to two minutes long. "from the time of" indicates the composer's belief, not uncommen then, that covid was something that would become a thing of the past. Alas, not so. The pieces recall the weirdness of those early days, both the whacky and the tragic.

1. waking and remembering
2. am i ok? r u?
3. invoking the spirits of protection
4. people are being crazy
5. health workers dance with the virus
6. many have perished
7. the birds are singing
     7.2 birds version 2
8. good-night blessing: see you tomorrow
