Mozart – Clarinet Concerto in A Major
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote his last completely instrumental piece in 1791. Clarinet Concerto in A Major was written for his friend Anton Stadler, who gave the first performance of it in Prague to a great reception according to the Berlin Musikalisches Wochenblatt. Today, a major part of the first movement is often used in auditions for orchestras and music schools. In this broadcast, the piece is performed by Casco Phil, a Belgian chamber orchestra led by Benjamin Haemhouts. Belgian clarinettist Geert Baeckelandt is the featured soloist.
