Saverio Mercadante: Concertos For Clarinet; Concertoni For Winds & Orchestra
Although not a house-hold name now, Saverio Mercadante [1795-1870] was an eminent composer in his day and was responsible for over 90 operas and much sacred and instrumental music. His music was admired by Rossini, Bellini and particularly Verdi. His Clarinet Concertos are wonderful examples of the light Italian operatic genre-brilliantly written for the soloist with many opportunities for virtuoso display. To perform these works the distinguished Italian clarinettist Luigi Magistrelli is joined by the Chamber Orchestra of Lecco, conducted by Pierangelo Gelmini.

Fantasias Mediterraneas: Spanish Music For Clarinet And Piano
Clarinet Classics presents a recital of Spanish clarinet music given by the pre-eminent Spanish clarinettist Joan Enric Lluna. After the guitar, the clarinet is the most popular instrument in Spain, and there is, therefore a wealth of music written for the instrument by Spanish composers. Virtuoso music written by the Sarasates of the clarinet including Romero, Menendez and Yuste. Evocative pieces performed in a totally authentic style. Music from the best of the older generation, including Montsalvatge, and from the brightest lights of the younger generation including Cano and Brotons. This CD, the first of its kind, presents an example of this rich and exciting repertoire - showing a variety of periods in Spanish 20th century music. Press Quote Little of the extensive Spanish solo repertoire for the instrument has found its way out of the country, however; this conspectus of a century and-a-half of composers for it will be practically virgin territory for all but the best informed. Lluna and his excellent pianist......most impressive. Gramophone
