All things Mozart have been said and done, you'd think. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. The exegesis of the Mozart verse is a full-time job to many. The works on this recording alone raise a bunch of questions of which several remain unanswered. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's story for clarinet and string ensemble hasn't been fully written yet. Part of it is voiced through some of the most often performed works in the repertoire. Still, every clarinetist is left with the challenge to get hands-on with the music and put a personal, original spin on it. To accomplish this, one has to be willing to do the necessary homework, returning to the source - and to go about it diligently.

(2-LP set) Many critics regard Dave Brubeck's Carnegie Hall concert from February 1963 as his greatest ever live appearance. But who can really determine that? For no one - apart from Brubeck himself - would have seen and heard his conservatively estimated 12,000 concerts. Although the twelve titles had already been released on LPs that had been recorded in the studio, these records were certainly not known to all those in the audience. In between the numbers on each LP, Brubeck made little 'advertising spots' in short comments, but with such charm and wit that one really cannot be angry with him.The concert programme begins with InchSt. Louis BluesInch and ends with InchTake FiveInch. Luckily, the solos are distributed among all the musicians, so that Paul Desmond and Joe Morello - whose prowess on this evening can only be called 'amazingly good' - justifiably received enthusiastic applause from both the audience and us alike. InchCastilian DrumsInch demonstrates Morello's wealth of ideas and his grandiose feeling for rhythm; though short, Paul Desmond's solos (InchSouthern SceneInch is a good example!) are compelling, highly melodic, lyrical and possess a unique tone - as such they are immediately recognisable.How fortunate that the twelve brilliantly improvised numbers are now available once again on vinyl, having been recorded live at the legendary Carnegie Hall 60 years ago..Inch Recording February 1963 Carnegie Hall, New YorkProduction Teo Macero.Inch InchAt Carnegie HallInch - Dave Brubeck (p); Paul Desmond (as); Eugene Wright (b); Joe Morello (dr).Inch gatefold sleeve Album Tracks 1.
