    Best clarinet concerto ever composed. It compromises both Romantic and Classical period's style , that's why Spohr can be classified as transition composer from classical to Romantic. I can't understand why this concerto being underestimated.

      Volkan Işılay because audiences largely don’t identify with it, unless it’s full of clarinetists and clarinet enthusiasts (I am a clarinetist and love performing all 4 of his Concerto’s). However, compositionally, his themes and motifs aren’t all that interesting, which is what ties a performance together: symmetry, uniformity, tug the heart strings.

    I had recently discovered that the clarinettist Thomas Lindsay Willman (1784-1840) was a great-great-great-great grand uncle of mine, and played Spohr's first Clarinet Concerto, here, in February 1833. The maternal great grandfather (Johann Bernhard Logier) of my great grandmother married Elizabeth Willman, sister of Thomas Lindsay Willman.

    Speaking of Willman, when researching Spohr for a graduate thesis, I read Spohr's Lebenserrinerungen (Autobiography). Spohr visited London on more than 1 occasion & Willman played his 2nd concerto during 1 visit. Spohr wasn't terribly complimentary about Willman's performance of this piece. Spohr wrote his clarinet concertos for Johann Simon Hermstedt, who must have been an unbelievable clarinetist, considering that the key system was relatively primitive, compared to today's instruments. These pieces still present a significant challenge to the modern performer.

    • @mrjimmienoone2130
      @mrjimmienoone2130 5 лет назад +1

      Spohr was not very friendly to poor clarinetists, concerning technical challenges. He wrote his 4th concert in e-minor which is anything but easy to play on clarinet. - Does anybody know if the clarinets of his time could be tuned down?

    • @mozartsbumbumsrus7750
      @mozartsbumbumsrus7750 Год назад +1

      How do you mean "tuned down"? The pitch wasn't standardised in those days. Mühlfeld's clarinets were tuned to A435 and Clara Schumann had to have her own piano lowered in pitch so that they could play together. I don't remember what Hermstedt's 5-key and 13-key clarinets were tuned to, or Baermann's either. Ted Planas knew and told me about that back in the 1980's.

    • @mozartsbumbumsrus7750
      @mozartsbumbumsrus7750 Год назад +1

      Actually, Hermstedt with Spohr as conductor, gave the première 1st performance on his 5-key clarinet, which caused and motivated him to work with Streitwolf of Göttingen to make a 13-key instrument so that Hermstedt could play it better. I think Heinrich Baermann must have had a better, less strident than Hermstedt, but pity we have no recordings or videos oe either. 😅
