About the album
All pieces on this CD, were selected in the same context: we had three soloists with three very different instruments – horn, clarinet and bassoon. All three play in the Danish wind quintet “Carion”. So they know each other very well, also musically. I had often worked with the horn player in Denmark and thus the idea occurred to us to do a project together. But we didn’t want yet another recording of the clarinet concertos by Mozart and Weber. When scouting around for a suitable repertoire for the CD, we came across these very different pieces, and, what is more, with very unusual combinations of instruments.
In fact composers like Belloli, Jadin and Lachner had the courage to experiment with such forms of concerts. That is what makes this CD and these pieces so special.“ (Claus Efland)
