    Bernhard Henrik Crusell (15 October 1775 - 28 July 1838) was a Swedish-Finnish clarinetist, composer and translator, "the most significant and internationally best-known Finnish-born classical composer and indeed, - the outstanding Finnish composer before Sibelius".
    Work: Clarinet Concerto No.2 in F-minor, Op.5 (c. 1817) Dedicated to tsar Alexander I of Russia.
    Mov.I: Allegro 00:00
    Mov.II: Andante pastorale 11:23
    Mov.III: Rondo: Allegretto 16:52
    Clarinet: Per Billman
    Orchestra: Uppsala Kammarorkester
    Conductor: Gérard Korsten
    Crusell's Concerto in F minor, Opus 5, has been dated to 1815. It was dedicated to Alexander I, Tsar of Russia, and published, when the necessary permission had been granted, in 1818. The choice of key and the nature of the thematic material make of this work something very different.
    The first movement is again in the expected form, with an orchestral exposition dominated by the principal theme, leading to the entry of the soloist. Again in the solo writing there is a full use of the resources of the instrument and the composer's own virtuosity as a performer, with the two characteristic registers of the clarinet exploited at once, before the development of the theme by the solo instrument. The key of F minor allows an additional element of drama and occasional poignancy that is very much of its period. A portrait of the composer painted in the 1820s by Johan Gustaf Sandberg shows him holding the score of the concerto with the principal theme of the first movement seen in the music he is holding, a suggestion of its importance to him.
    The D flat major slow movement, an Andante pastorale in a lilting 9/8 metre, gives a chance for display of another kind, in its dynamic changes and contrasts, with final echo effects that offer, incidentally, a further technical challenge in the demand for the softest playing imaginable, as the clarinet answers the orchestra. The movement is followed by a final F minor Rondo of great charm, ending in a positive F major.

    Wieder ein gottvolles Andante, Balsam für Geist und Körper. Solche Musik lässt den Menschen gesunden, es weitet sich spürbar das Gemüt. Warum ist heute Keiner mehr fähig solche Musik zu schreiben ? Einfache, klare, vollendete Melodie voll Gefühl und Harmonie.

      The problem is that Mozart’s music, especially his more famous works, is capable of capturing large audience; while that of a lesser known, more obscure composer, is likely to attract less of an audience. The sad truth is that there are literally thousands of neglected works by important composers that are not considered for performance by leading orchestras and ensembles due to lack of commercial interest...

      @@IsaacW. both kind of because I believe that you can learn anything at any age but if this person likes clarinets for there beautiful sound than playing one is not a good idea because getting a great tone on the clarinet is a pain. I have been playing for at least 5 years and I can hardly tell the difference form my 5th year and my 4th years tone. high notes are a pain to play in tune for me it is always flat and it I can't for the life of me make it sound good or have a light entry, the tone is highly dependent on the reed and it creates days where you sound awesome and day were you sound like crap. I will say that being able to nail a hard passage after days of practice is rewarding but if you just want a beautiful sound than listen to professional recordings.

    • @IsaacW.

      @@michaelshi1360 not all of that is true. I've been playing for 4 years and I agree with you about the reeds. I got really great advice from a friend the other day- play on bad reeds until they become good reeds. Try recording yourself more often when practicing. Also this step is not for everyone but consider switching to a different teacher. When I switched from my old teacher to the one I am currently with, my playing skyrocketed. A good teacher can make more of a difference then anyone would think.

    • @stefanherrlinger797

      I would see Crusell more in the neighborhood of Franz Krommer. Both Crusell and Krommer living in a time when the art style began to change from the classical to the romantic era, first very slightly and then with a real rush. Anyway this is a true masterwork, showing elements of both eras.
