Brahms had already announced his ?retirement' from composition when in the spring of 1894 he played chamber music with the cellist Robert Hausmann and the clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld. This encounter apparently renewed his enthusiasm for Mühlfeld's much admired playing and inspired him to write two clarinet sonatas in the summer of the same year. It remains unclear when exactly Brahms drafted vio…

Sonata for Bass Clarinet and Piano was commissioned by virtuoso former Houston Symphony clarinetist Richard Nunemaker, and takes full advantage of his prodigious technique and the instrument's extraordinary range. Although the sonata is traditional in its structure - with three movements whose tempi are ordered as fast, slow, fast - it is highly original in its musical content.
The first move…

Peteris Vasks occupe une position particulière dans le cercle des compositeurs baltes. Il n'est pas seulement le compositeur le plus important et populaire jamais à sortir de la Lettonie, il parle toujours à ses auditeurs avec une intensité fervente qui semble pointer vers quelque chose de supérieur. Cet aspect supérieur est sans doute quelque chose qui se dresse au-dessus du monde de l'humanité, …

Tonalité : C-Moll - Kv 427. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. The Mass in C minor, K. 427, Mozart's 'Great Mass' remaines a torso - a circumstance which is extremely regrettable, especially given the monumentality of this work. Mozart finished only the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, 'Osanna', and Benedictus of the Mass. For two movements from the Credo he only completed sketches without instrumentation. In Ma…
