The NSO’s Stanford 100 series marking the centenary of Charles Villiers Stanford’s death begins with the enchanting Clarinet Concerto paired with his peers, Wagner and Brahms. ‘Extraordinary clarinettist’ (New York Times) Carol McGonnell is the soloist for the romantic and characterful concerto with Mihhail Gerts – ‘captivating from the first to the last note’ (RPonline) – conducting. The Prelude & Liebestod from Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde is sensual and sublime, Brahms’ mighty and magnificent Fourth Symphony a poetic, passionate masterpiece.
