Clarinet evening with Wenzel Fuchs A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

Austrian clarinettist Wenzel Fuchs is one of the major artists of Mozart’s favourite instrument: he is professor of the Hanns Eisler School of Music Berlin, solo clarinettist of the Berlin Philharmonic, and he regularly holds master classes all over the world, for example, in early December at the Budapest Liszt Academy; his concert in the Solti Hall is connected with this course. The clarinettist plays three key pieces of the chamber repertoire as partner of top Hungarian artists. The programme features Bartók’s trio composed for legendary jazz clarinettist Benny Goodman and the no less legendary violinist József Szigeti. The Poulenc Sonata in B flat major was also written for Goodman, although dedicated to his composer colleague Arthur Honegger. Finally, one of the seminal works of the clarinet repertoire: the late Brahms trio for clarinet, cello and piano.
