Programme Note
Chamber Ensemble of London directed by Peter Fisher with solos by Peter Cigleris (clarinet)
A (mostly) light-hearted concert celebrating transatlantic connections. Clarinettist Peter Cigleris has given masterclasses and university performances in the USA. His recent British concerto recordings have been played on American radio as well as BBC Radio 3 which has also featured the Clive Jenkins items in this programme.
