Romantic modernist - or modern romanticist - Lars Karlsson (b. 1953) composed his Clarinet concerto (2013-2015) for Christoffer Sundqvist. Connections with Nordic mythology and clarinettist as a shaman turned to a more traditional concerto concept in three movements. Harmonic and melodic use of fourths and fifths forms an important basis for the musical material.

Xavier Montsalvatge (1912-2002) was a consummate Spanish composer who explored many 20th century styles including Impressionism, Serialism, Modernism, and Wagnerism, while maintaining a distinctive Catalan character. He first came to prominence in 1940, after the Spanish Civil War, and is seen to represent the lost generation which was active in the second half of the 1900's. He helped to advance Spanish music from the Nationalistic style that dominated before the war, and began to introduce West Indian influences into European music. Self-Parafrasis for Clarinet and Piano was written around 1968, when Montsalvatge was just coming into the height of his compositional prowess. Itis presented here in a high-quality glossy cover, and would make the perfect gift for any clarinettist.

Anton Stadler’s works for solo clarinet are collected into a single volume for the first time, and include hitherto unpublished music. Three Caprices and three Fantaisies are selections of popular contemporary tunes, laced together with virtuosic clarinet writing. Sets of variations, also based on popular themes, display a compendium of classical clarinet technique. The solos offer the modern player a challenging workout in the instrumental idioms of Mozart’s friend and clarinettist.
