Full program notes

Twelfth Night presents an evening of the clarinet quintets of Mozart and Brahms, titled “Nightingale” — the nickname that Brahms gave to Richard Mühlfeld, the clarinetist that inspired him to come out of retirement to write some of his last compositions. Both works are arguably considered the greatest chamber works for this combination of instruments, and will be played on historical string instruments and a Bassett clarinet.
