Clarinet Concerto, Op 57

Available for over a year

The Clarinet Concerto, written in 1928, is the work of a man who was terminally ill. Nielsen’s harmonic language is in conflict with the discordant fight between the keys of F and E which encourages tension in the music. Composer: Carl Nielsen Performer: BBC Philharmonic Orchestra Performer: Sabine Meyer (Clarinet) Conductor: John Storgårds Recording date: 11 October 2014 Date of broadcast: 11 October 2014
