Par WEBER CARL MARIA VON / BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Carl Maria von Weber, great innovator and orchestrator who paved the way for such Romantic giants as Wagner and Liszt, wrote this famous and oft-performed 'little concerto' in 1811. Lovely sonorities, beautiful themes - in short, a great piece for clarinet and orchestra. Also featured in this MMO edition, Beethoven's beautiful, warm-toned Piano Trio No. 4 is a treasure-trove of possibilities for the clarinetist. Lovely themes - young Beethoven at his best! Includes a high-quality printed music score for B-flat clarinet and a compact disc containing a complete version with soloist, in split-channel stereo (soloist on the right channel), then a second version in full stereo of theorchestral accompaniment, minus the soloist. Performed by Keith Dwyer, clarinet Accompaniment: Weber Concertino: Stuttgart Festival Orchestra/Emil Kahn, Beethoven Trio: Richard Mattson, violoncello, Robert Conway, piano/ Répertoire / Divers
