This clarinet piece, along with a piano solo piece (Dolor y Dulzura) were the first pieces I premiered at the Cheslock Concert at the North Carolina School of the Arts, in 1991, when I was a student of Sherwood Shaffer. "Her Sensual Mask" describes myself trying to win the love of a girl, and that girl always eluding me whenever I thought I would conquer; something that happened more than once in my youth. The clarinet represents the girl, supposingly luring me towards her or her love, and the piano represents me, following her, and being constantly dissapointed. Now as I look backwards in time I can see that the "luring" was an ilussion on my part and not the fault of those girls; but I was young and fooolish then (and maybe I am still, foolish in things concerning romance). My friends David Malek (clarinet) and Ivan Seng made an excellent and memorable performance. David was at the time like me, in his early twenties, and was already an amazing clarinet performer. Ivan Seng was only 14, but he was also a magnificent performer. Seodi Hiler, a dear friend of mine then who was also a piano major (she was japanese-german in origin) was supposed to be the pianist, but for some reason she was not going to be able to perform the piece, but she very professionaly introduced Ivan to me and David as a replacement.
