If you are looking for real music, swiftly and professionaly prepared 
for any instrumental or vocal combination, has been known to raise the 
hairs on several of the toughest scalps, and useful for any purpose,
then you've chanced on the very place.  

I'm afraid I have no MP3 fragments or free samples at 
the moment, but you can order a CD with some of the best recordings
(and www.lautareasca.com has some sound fragments).  

Here is a catalogue of available work. If you ask me, it's
all good stuff, but then, I'm biased. If you are an interested 
musician, or just interested in this musician, 
you can contact me on dominy.clements@wanadoo.nl 

Brief Biog. 1964 vintage; I spent four years at The Royal Academy of Music 
in London, and subsequently two years at the Royal Conservatory in 
The Hague, with Louis Andriessen among others.  I've been living and 
working in The Netherlands ever since, writing for, 
and performing with various ensembles, as freelance flautist and composer.  
As well as all this, I work at the Royal Conservatory 
in The Hague as assistant co-ordinator of the composition 
department and Podium Manager.
