Clarinet Counterpoint brings together two timeless compositions, showcasing the expressive beauty of the clarinet as a lyrical voice in classical music. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s renowned Clarinet Quintet in A Major, composed over 125 years ago, is a testament to his genius. Despite facing numerous challenges, including his wife Constanze’s difficult pregnancy and personal health and financial troubles, Mozart created a transcendent masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences.
In contrast, Arthur Somervell, primarily known for his song cycles, presents his Clarinet Quintet in G Major. This romantic composition weaves poetic and lyrical elements into a mesmerizing chamber work, offering a different but equally enchanting musical experience.
Join us for an evening of musical excellence and immerse yourself in the timeless melodies of these two remarkable clarinet quintets. The power of music to transcend time and connect hearts awaits you.
Secure your tickets now and be part of this extraordinary event. Don’t miss your chance to witness the magic of “Clarinet Counterpoint” by NEPACMS on November 4th.
