About
This recital of works for clarinet and piano of mostly 20th-century repertoire, but including Weber’s virtuosic Grand Duo Concertant from 1816, was highly regarded when first issued, and receives its first release on CD.
‘Gervase de Peyer is one of the greatest instrumentalist alive’ - Fanfare magazine
‘The brilliance and attack of both players to the Weber is such that you woud hardly think two such athletic performers could quickly assume a poetic disguise. But, stressing the hundred-year gulf, they do so, and it serves to illuminate some music of very great charm … The recording offers an excellent balance between the two instruments; a slight shift away from the traditional stress on the clarinet in this particular combination is all to the good as far as the blend, a difficult one, is concerned.’ - Gramophone, March 1961
‘His phrasing is like that of a human singer, but with a power, agility and range beyond any singer’s capability; technique that treats the music as though it were happening spontaneously for the first time; an acute awareness of overall form and a tone like a voice coming down from Heaven - voices, actually, because the clarinet has more than one.’ - The Washington Post
