Prickly Pear Clarinet Ensemble

Located deep in the heart of Texas, the Prickly Pear Clarinet Ensemble is a chamber music group comprised of several local clarinetists founded in 2015. The ensemble is comprised entirely of volunteer members and performers of varied backgrounds—including many active music educators & performers in the San Antonio area—all of whom strive to spread the magic of clarinet! The members of Prickly Pear are collegiately-trained clarinet players from across the country and bring high-quality performances to audiences.

The Prickly Pear Clarinet Ensemble enjoys performing original works, as well as transcriptions for clarinet choir. The primary purpose of the ensemble is to promote the performing arts, with a particular emphasis on the clarinet, by providing musical performances and educational programs to the local and national community. We aim to foster a love for music, encourage artistic excellence, and make the performing arts accessible to individuals of all backgrounds, ages, and abilities.
