| Katherine Spencer | Clarinet |
| Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment |
Three composers whose are curiously linked by a date and entanglement. Two of Mozart’s most enduringly popular orchestral pieces are framed by music from his friend Michael Haydn and the ‘Spanish Mozart’ Juan Arriaga, born 50 years to the day after Mozart.
It is no understatement to say that Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto is one of those pieces that changed the history of music. 21st Century audiences are so familiar with the sound of the clarinet – it is inextricably linked with smooth romantic melodies or the iconic opening of Rhapsody in Blue – but when Mozart unveiled the piece its sound would have shocked audiences. This performance aims to recapture that sense of wonder and delight.
Price: £17 – £64 (Premium £82)
