About this concert
Technological advances in instrument making opened the way for the clarinet to play a prominent part in the development of 19th-century music. Mendelssohn helped set the way with his works for clarinet, basset horn and piano, created in 1832 with the talents of his good friend Heinrich Baermann in mind. The Trio di Clarone’s lunchtime programme also includes Schumann’s ‘Fantasy Pieces’, crowned by a thrilling test of virtuosity for the clarinettist.
