Truly a great clarinetist - to needlessly reiterate a now very familiar observation. I remember many of all those late evenings during the early 90:s when we were practicing in adjacent rooms at the (Stockholm) conservatory, where his brother also studied; actually, some odd chromatic runs - part of some contemporary piece - that he practiced "almost eternally" on his clarinet are still engraved in my acoustic memory... Memories can be so vivid and precise, sometimes; spooky!

The best clarinetist of our times! Never stops to explore.By the way... Concerto by Kalevi Aho is enormous...

Okay, now that I know that piece is Vittorio Monti's Czardas, does anyone know where I can see this entire arrangement? I see it was composed for violin, but it's so fun with the two voices!

Martin is very good! But why are they playing Hilborgs concerto in the begining? =)

They are announcing Aho's clarinet concerto, and this video portraits Frost as a performer, that's why you see/hear Hillborg's concerto at the beginning - and a lot of Aho's music later!

This is not the Aho concerto. This piece is by Anders Hillborg
