‘He has liberated the soul of the clarinet…’ So wrote one reviewer after hearing Nielsen’s Clarinet Concerto. Performed by RCM Concerto Competition winner Reynold Yang, the concerto combines the lyrical and powerful aspects of the instrument’s personality.
Schoenberg is still considered an enfant terrible of classical music, but the RCM Philharmonic sheds light on this often-misunderstood figure with the enigmatically beautiful Variations for Orchestra, led by Chair of Conducting Martyn Brabbins.
