Clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld unexpectedly kindled a creative fire in the aging Johannes Brahms one last time, resulting in a beautiful series of chamber music works for this instrument. Musicians of the WDR Symphony Orchestra now present an album on GENUIN featuring the Clarinet Trio and the Clarinet Quintet. Trio Chronos (with Simon Deffner, violoncello, and Gottlieb Wallisch, piano), joined by violinists José Maria Blumenschein and Cristian Suvaiala, and violist Junichiro Murakami, forms the basis of the two distinguished chamber music formations led by clarinettist Andreas Langenbach. Autumnul works of aching beauty!
