I think I get it, we just have to practice 8 hours a day, from scales to Opperman's Studies, for 5 years, but then what about the other 50%? This is a fantastic composition. The soloist and orchestra were amazing! Thank you for sharing.

[MandolinaPianoforte]

Fantastc!!
But what is the name of the claninetist??

[gerardbegni]

The style of this toung Finnish composer is surprising. It sounds very personally modern in some sections, and mich more conventional almost post-tonal in some others. Even the very first notes of the soloclarinet sound as degrees V, II and II of a major sa cale with an embroidery at VI. The following seems to be an ispired follow-on of 'tonal slips" in the style of Prokofiev or R. Starauss. Things become slowly more complex.

Amazing work! Great performance. Thanks for posting.

Wonderful playing of a compelling concerto that will hopefully find its place in clarinetists’ standard repertoire. But. But. Is there no way to prevent ads from appearing in the middle of the recording? Will you kindly remove those?

[muslit]

you have a fast first movement full of harmonic riffs, then 13 minutes into the concerto a slow movement with a kind of melody. at 21 minutes in you have the cadenza, remotely based on that melody, then the last movement based on the first movement's harmonic riffs, and a coda with a hollywood treatment of the 2nd movement melody. Virtuosic and fun throughout, with some redundant moments in the last movement. But not a lot of depth. And a terrific soloist performer.

This is a good piece, should get more performances. Unfortunately most orchestras, while they do several violin concertos every year, will do a clarinet concerto only once every five years or so - even when they have the likes of Riccardo Morales, Wentzel Fuchs, or Anthony McGill in their midst. And so they concerto they usually play is, of course, Mozart.
