Shuhei Isobe - Saint-Saens:Clarinet Sonata

Description:

Shuhei Isobe, one of Japan's leading clarinetists, composer, conductor, and classical studies, collaborates with Etsuko Okazaki, a leading figure in the piano world, and the Morgoa Quartet in this rare and gorgeous combination. Not many programs offer sonatas, trios, and quintets, all masterpieces of clarinet chamber music from the classical to the modern era, making this an interesting one. The changes in the sound, which are full of individuality with each new arrangement, and the exquisite ensemble playing of the virtuoso players are a must-hear. (C)RS
