Gary Dranch, Clarinet
Three prominent concertos written during the 20th Century and performed to perfection by Gary Dranch. Dranch is well-known as a clarinetist specializing in contemporary music. Accompaniment is by two fine South American Orchestras, the Orquestra De Camara Da Ulbra and Orquesta Filarmonica De Buenos Aires. Impressive!

Currently Principal Clarinetist of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orcherstra, Andrew Simon expertly performs a varied collection of enjoyable clarinet classics. The New York Times says, "Simon plays brilliantly and with character, spirit and humor…" Like the title says, it's HOT!
Robert Spring, Clarinet
Called the "Heifetz of the clarinet" for his double tonguing, circular breathing and extreme high range, clarinetist extraordinaire Robert Spring presents a recording unlike you've ever heard. On this unparalleled CD of historical pieces that were performed and/or recorded by the great Jascha Heifetz, Spring creates many of his own fingerings to expand his extremely high technical range. INCOMPARABLE!!!
Robert Spring, clarinet
A dazzling and dizzying display of digital dexterity! Eight notorious virtuoso solos are performed here by clarinetist Robert Spring, whose technical skill and sumptuous tone will absolutely amaze you! Our highest recommendation.

BBC Music Magazine gave this CD 5 Stars for performance and 5 Stars for sound and commented " The F Minor Brahms Sonata is commandingly played", "This is playing of real distinction", "A notable release"!

Perceptive recordings by a talented young artist who has won numerous national and international solo competitions. Outstanding performances of exquisite music! Should be in the library of all serious clarinetists!
