Programme Note
A Mozart Clarinet Concerto Directed and performed by dazzling virtuoso clarinettist Michael Collins
Composed in 1791, it remains one of his most enduringly popular pieces and demonstrates Mozart’s obvious love of the clarinet. Schubert’s perfectly conceived 5th Symphony showcases his infatuation with Mozart and represents something of a personal tribute to his idol.
