Gerald Finzi: Clarinet Concerto, David Hattner, clarinet, Huw Edwards, conductor

[@jerrera45]

What a hauntingly beautiful piece of music. The orchestra plays with such maturity and David Hattner's performance is spellbinding.

Cannot find enough words to express how beautiful this execution is, both from the soloist and the orchestra. Greetings from someone who used to be a clarinettist. Glad to hear this music.

[@jungorgan]

It is a very interesting piece! Bravo!

[@stephenhardaker540]

What a wonderful performance!

[@clarinetdonn]

Splendid playing from the Youth Orchestra (AND the soloist of course!)

[@keywest5184]

Thank you!

[@WilfriedBerk]

Excellent !

[@Aidanfc]

Lovely to hear this. But beware: weirdly, the titles at the start give totally the wrong dates for Finzi's life. It was short, but not that short, and later. The real dates are 1901-1956.

Wow, great catch. And hard to fix!

[@CloudyMcCloud00]

Seems to have mixed him up with George Butterworth!

A haunting concerto that I find deeply moving every time I hear it

[@ぴぴ-d4k]

My brother’s in the bass section.

[@robbell9444]

Yes Finzi more reflective and moving I think

[@robbell9444]

I don't know why I thought his name was Gerald Finzi

[@geraldsobel3470]

But, it is. I play clarent too, but not nearly this well, and I stopped playing over 40 years ago. Let this be an inspiration to me. Ain't it bootieful?!!

[@robbell9444]

Arguably more interesting than Bike by Pink Floyd when Roger 'Syd' Barrett was the front man.
