Prelude, Fugue and Riffs is a "written-out" jazz-in-concert-hall composition composed by Leonard Bernstein for a jazz ensemble featuring solo clarinet. The title points to the union of classical music and jazz: Prelude (first movement) and Fugue (second movement) – both baroque forms – are followed immediately without a pause by a series of "riffs" (third movement), which is a jazz term for a repeated and short melodic figure. It features: It later was transcribed for clarinet and orchestra by Lukas Foss.

| - Prelude, Fugue and Riffs (letteralmente Preludio, Fuga e Riffs) è una composizione jazz per la sala da concerto composta da Leonard Bernstein per un ensemble jazz con clarinetto solista e scritta per l'orchestra di Woody Herman, per cui anche Igor Stravinskij aveva scritto una composizione. Il titolo punta all'unione della musica classica e del jazz: Preludio (primo movimento) e Fuga (secondo movimento) - entrambi forme barocche - sono immediatamente seguiti senza sosta da una serie di "riff" (terzo movimento), che è un termine per indicare una figura melodica ripetuta e breve.

| - Prelude, Fugue and Riffs is a "written-out" jazz-in-concert-hall composition composed by Leonard Bernstein for a jazz ensemble featuring solo clarinet. The title points to the union of classical music and jazz: Prelude (first movement) and Fugue (second movement) – both baroque forms – are followed immediately without a pause by a series of "riffs" (third movement), which is a jazz term for a repeated and short melodic figure. It features:
* brass and rhythm in the first movement,
* saxophones in the second movement, and
* the entire ensemble plus solo clarinet in the third movement first with backing from the piano then by the entire ensemble. Completed in 1949 for Woody Herman's big band as part of a series of commissioned works – that already included Stravinsky's Ebony Concerto – it was never performed by Herman, possibly because his orchestra had disbanded at that time. Instead, it received its premiere as part of Bernstein's Omnibus television show, The World of Jazz on October 16, 1955. According to some sources the soloist at the premiere was Al Gallodoro; other sources state it was premiered by Benny Goodman – Bernstein's Tanglewood neighbour and friend since the 1940s – to whom the work was dedicated. In 1952 Bernstein revised the score from its original instrumentation for a more conventional pit orchestra, and the work was then incorporated into a ballet sequence in the first draft of the musical comedy Wonderful Town. The revised version of Prelude, Fugue and Riffs did not survive and the majority of the music was cut from the final version of the Wonderful Town score with the exception of a few phrases in the musical's numbers "Conquering the City" and "Conversation Piece". It later was transcribed for clarinet and orchestra by Lukas Foss. (en)
