The release opens with Barnaby Robson's collaboration with BAFTA-winning sound designer Martin Cantwell: a recording of Steve Reich's intricate New York Counterpoint, which involves eight pre-recorded clarinet lines (the forces of which are referenced in the album's title.) Herbert Howells is celebrated for his choral music but his instrumental works are less famous; with pianist Fiona Harris, Robson performs the 1946 version of Howells's Clarinet Sonata, never recorded before. Three further world-premiere recordings follow: Robson's arrangement for clarinet, viola and piano of George Fenton's Snow Leopard - music originally composed for the BBC's Planet Earth - for which Robson is joined by Simon Chamberlain and Rebecca Chambers; Graham Fitkin's mercurial Cusp for solo clarinet; and the witty Red Herring Blues for clarinet and piano by baritone-composer Roderick Williams. The recording is rounded off with two 20th-century French works: Poulenc's Sonata for two clarinets (Robson has recorded both parts) and Debussy's dazzling Première Rhapsodie for clarinet and piano.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orchid Classics","offers":[{"title":"New \/ CD \/ 1 2 3 11 Orchid Classics","offer_id":48949420654900,"sku":"ORCC100184.2","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/7436\/1652\/files\/4018136-3521225_3e11062c-6e11-43e8-b7f3-bfdfe7dca7f3.jpg?v=1791509351","url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/various-artists-1-2-3-11_aec-orcc100184-2","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
