Music for clarinet

Description

The clarinetist Patrick Messina and the pianist Fabrizio Chiovettano invite you on a journey through the poetic universe of Schumann, from romance to fantasy to storytelling. What could be better than the intimacy of chamber music and the muted timbre of the clarinet to resonate the unspeakable of a musical imagination that does not choose between sounds and words? The pieces performed on this disc immerse the listener in the creative years of Robert Schumann, which our two artists complement with a transcription for the instrument oh so autumnal and lyrical that is the clarinet. A duo with the violist Pierre Lenert further enriches the expressive palette of this disc. They also do not forget Clara Schumann, whose inspiration dialogues with that of Robert in this beautiful chamber music program.
