Australian Brandenburg Orchestra - Beautiful Minds
|
In
an age when "awesome" has come to mean fleetingly interesting rather than
inspiring awe, you could be forgiven for ignoring the publicist's attachment of
the word "beautiful minds" to this concert. However in this case White Hat
believes the hype is well founded. To have written magical works by your mid
teens and by your death in your mid thirties to have left the world with some of
its most glorious music does require a beautiful mind and both Mozart and
Mendelssohn possessed one.
Mozart's clarinet concerto was written for the basset clarinet of the period
but is most often heard today on the modern orchestral clarinet involving the
minor rewriting of some of the passages featuring the lower notes. Only a few
notes you may say, but with Mozart every note is important. Here is a rare
opportunity to hear Mozart's clarinet concerto featuring the instruments for
which he wrote it.Craig Hill (bassett clarinet) and Madeleine Easton (period
violin) perform with the
Australian
