Clarinet Quintet

Clarinet Quintet in A major op. 146-With his Clarinet quintet begun in 1915 Reger was remembering his role models Mozart and Brahms whose works in this genre he particularly admired. This melancholic quintet that is worked through in a strictlymotivic way was to be Reger’s last opus.Shortly after he had sent it to his publisher he died of heart attack in May 1916. The quintet was to become his swan song first performed at a memorial for the composer on6 November 1916. Almost one hundred years later we are now publishing it for the first time in an Urtext edition edited by the Reger scholar Michael Kube.

The first movement of Mozart's second clarinet quintet-Mozart's Sonata Allegro For Clarinet And String Quartet is certainly an exciting addition to the Clarinet repertoire. The first movement of Mozart's projected Second Clarinet Quintet the 'fragment' that is the basis of this work had been known about for many years and was always considered a trial run for the great K581; however recent dating has shown the two pages of manuscript date from after the Clarinet Quintet.The distinguished Mozart scholar Timothy Jones has proved this to be the beginning of a response to the popularity of K581. It was only as a result of his early death that the workremained incomplete. Jones has completed the work using his deep knowledge of late Mozart and we have now a very important new addition to the Clarinet Quintet repertoire.

pour clarinette (La), 2 violons, alto, et violoncelle. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. En 1890, Brahms avait pour ainsi dire pris la résolution d’en finir avec la composition. Mais sa rencontre avec le clarinettiste Richard Mühlfeld lui donna tellement d’inspiration qu’en peu de temps il composa aussitôt plusieurs œuvres pour lui. Le Quintette op. 115 aux mélodies célestes fait partie depuis sa création en 1891 des œuvres préférées du public comme des musiciens. Dès la préparation pour la mise à l’impression – et sans doute avec un regard sur la diffusion future de l’œuvre – fut réalisée une version alternative avec un alto à la place de la clarinette, qui fut créée par ni plus ni moins que le grand Joseph Joachim lui-même, et qui reçut l’autorisation de Brahms. C’est pourquoi l’édition Urtext de Henle, revue sur la base du texte de la Nouvelle édition intégrale des œuvres de Brahms, comprend également la partie d’alto alternative. La responsable d’édition Kathrin Kirsch donne dans une courte préface un aperçu sur la genèse de l’œuvre, et fournit dans les Bemerkungen ou Comments d’intéressants éléments de discussion sur les variantes liées à la réception de l’œuvre./ Répertoire / Clarinette (La), 2 Violons, Alto et Violoncelle

Brahms's Clarinet Quintet in B minor, also in four movements, is equally popular and often recorded as a companion to Mozart's work.
