A Tribute To Benny Goodman
Beniamin Baczewski - Concerto for Clarinet and Chamber Orchestra
Aaron Copland - Concerto for Clarinet and String Orchestra, with Harp and Piano
Artur Guza - Suite The Cursed Forest for Clarinet and Orchestra
Gdańsk Academy of Music Chamber Orchestra, Łukasz Borowicz
Andrzej Wojciechowski, clarinet
via Qobuz




Two works from very young composers (°91 and °82!), and the marvellous piece from Copland.
I own already the original version with Benny Goodman, conducted by the composer himself.
This is equally well played and the sound is better.

More baroque transcriptions. The original harpsichord accompaniment must be viciously hard to play on the guitar. Excellent playing and sound.

John Luther Adams: Become Desert

Cantaloupe Musoc (2019), via Qobuz

Intriguing music, requires some attention but well worth it.

Enjoyable enough but not essential.

Philip Glass - Solo Piano
via Qobuz




Strangely, I find other piano players (and harpists) perform his pieces even better.
