As I said Seán the arrangement took a bit of getting used to on my part but see if you can get a listen to it on YouTube.

Re: What are you listening to?
couldn't agree more, Fergus... I have tried most of Weber's orchestral work and frankly, little of it moves me anywhere near that of his work for Clarinet, which seems to have much greater emotional depth to my ears... and Emma Johnson as you say, it a great clarinettist...fergus wrote:Great music and a great soloist!
Re: What are you listening to?
This version accompanied by two pianos and harmonium is the original. Rossini later arranged an orchestral accompaniment for fear that somebody else would! I love the original, but if you fancy the orchestra, there's an excellent version coonducted by Riccardo Chailly:fergus wrote:Seán wrote:Hmmm, very interesting, I must say that I am very fond of Rossini's operatic works so I might like that too.fergus wrote:

Re: What are you listening to?
Rossini only orchestrated the Petite Messe because he feared that if he didn´t someone else would do it, but the striking originality of the work is only evident in the original version. In it´s own way the Petite Messe Solennelle is one of the most innovative and original works of the XIX Century, every bit as original as Tristan und Isolde.

just having a bit of a 'dust down' of a few older recordings which have had very little attention over the past couple of years...
