Clarinet and Piano Charles Neidich 21st Century Series for Clarinet-Written for virtuoso clarinetist Heinrich Baermann Concertino would become the first work of an impressive oeuvre for clarinet one which along with that of Mozart Spohr and Brahms constitutes the backbone of the repertoire.Internationally-recognized clarinetist Charles Neidich unites for the first time Weber's original text with the edition published by Baermann's son which had formed the basis of most subsequent editions. Also presented areexamples from Cyrille Rose's 1879 edition which was the foundation of the French tradition and which held much more closely to Weber's original. This new critical edition inspires those learning the piece to develop their ownpersonal yet informed interpretation of Weber's premiere clarinet masterpiece.

The composer and violin virtuoso Johann Stamitz not only established the world-famous Mannheim school in the 18th century but is known among clarinettists above all for presumably being the first to present them with a true solo concerto. Even though Stamitz left it at just this one concerto, it has enjoyed great popularity since its rediscovery in the 20th century and has become a standard work in the concert repertoire. Due to its moderate technical demands, it is ideally suited for music students as a ?first? solo concerto, and as preparation for the more demanding solo parts of Mozart, Weber and Spohr. The newly prepared piano reduction was undertaken with a view to make it easy to play so that also less experienced piano players can undertake the accompaniment of the soloist; a renowned clarinettist, editor Nicolai Pfeffer also contributes suggestions for the cadenzas ? the result is an ideal Urtext edition for student recitals and music schools.
