MODERN CLARINET MUSIC
CRISTO BARRIOS (clarinet), CLINTON CORMANY (piano)

Following their fine recital of song transcriptions (Voice of the Clarinet - Divine Art dda25040) these fine musicians tackle a wide range of modern music from the post romantic Arnold Bax to the contemporary world of Esa-Pekka Salonen and Salvador Brotons. All of the music is however very approachable and given life and soul in these brilliant performances.

review extracts: for full reviews click here
"A nice balanced programme to extend 20.C clarinettists' repertoire, without venturing too far into extended techniques etc. All well played and recorded by Simon Fox." - Peter Grahame Woolf (Musical Pointers)
A nice recital for clarinet and piano...These two pros are on top of their game and can make this basic instrumentation sound like a lot more. Charming in its deceptive simplicity, the best cats always make it look easy.” - Chris Spector (Mid West Record)
“Cristo Barrios and Clinton Cormany present...[their repertoire] in the best possible light. In the lower registers Barrios has a wonderfully rich tone and he is an alert, sensitive player. Cormany contributes as much musical intelligence to the programme as Barrios.” – Raymond S. Tuttle (International Record Review)
