About this release

The clarinet is perhaps the most versatile of the wind instruments: its character can change from smooth velvety purring to outrageous blurting, in the widest possible dynamic range.

This set offers a wide selection of original works for clarinet and piano, by Mendelssohn, Von Weber, Schumann, Genzmer, Poulenc, Martinu, Stravinsky, Berg and others. Beautifully played by Henk de Graaf, solo clarinettist of the famous Rotterdam Philharmonic, and pianist Daniël Wayenberg.
