Principal clarinettist with the CBSO, Oli Janes talks about the elegies, raucous dances and virtuoso fireworks of Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra, which the orchestra performs in April.
It is a wonderful thing to hear the full range and colour of a symphony orchestra used to its full effect during the course of an evening's programme and tonight the BBC Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Finnish conductor Sakari Oramo showed the diversity, versatility and sheer joy which for me really brings the music to life.
