Dear friends, I hope you’re well. In these complicated times when people are dying or going into exile to avoid war, being a musician can sometimes seem futile. But sharing music and giving emotions is what we musicians have been put on earth to do, and arts are even more important in dark times to remind us humanity and purpose. That’s why I would like to dedicate this video to all people suffering of war at the moment.
For today’s video, I’m very honored to have 4 exceptional guests: Carlos Ferreira (Principal of @orchestrenationaldefrance), Sebastian Manz (Principal of SWR Symphony Orchestra), Philippe Cuper (Principal of @operadeparis) and Julien Hardy (Principal bassoon of @philharmoniquederadiofrance) 😍 We decided to play one movement of the well-known Vivaldi concerto for 4 violins RV580, a gem extracted from L’estro armonico (The Harmonic Inspiration), which is a set of 12 concertos for stringed instruments first published in Amsterdam in 1711.
But you’ll tell me, what is the link between us 5? We are simply all prizewinners of the @ard_competition in Munich! Philippe Cuper in 1982, myself in 1998, Sebastian Manz and Julien Hardy in 2008, Carlos Ferreira in 2019, an incredible competition that definitely changed our lives.
It’s also the occasion to show you a wide variety of clarinet models, Philippe is playing a beautiful old RC Prestige built in the early 80’s, I’m playing a boxwood Legende that many of you know already from previous videos, Carlos is playing a gorgeous Légende and Sebastian, especially for this video is playing… the brand new Buffet Légende GERMAN SYSTEM! A clarinet designed by the Buffet R&D team with the precious advices of Matthias Schorn and Reiner Wehle 🔥
I hope you’ll like it!
Take care and stay safe ❤️
