OVERVIEW
In an evening packed full of infectious melodies and toe-tapping rhythms, the sensational clarinettist Martin Fröst performs Copland’s jazz-influenced Clarinet Concerto, an exciting selection of Eastern European-inspired dances, and three thrillingly virtuosic arrangements of traditional Klezmer dances by his brother, Göran. Tomo Keller also leads the Academy in Britten’s Variations dedicated to his revered teacher, and Elgar’s beautifully romantic Sospiri.
We spoke to Martin in an ASMF Podcast episode to get a glimpse into his head and go on the hunt for the soul of the clarinet ahead of the performance:
