SOMM Recordings is pleased to present Peter Cigleris and his album, Clarinet Concertos, for your GRAMMY® Consideration for Best Classical Instrumental Solo!

SOMM Recordings is pleased to release Clarinet Concertos, four works for solo clarinet and wind orchestra, including two world-premiere recordings. The soloist is the English clarinettist, Peter Cigleris, who enjoys a wide and varied career and is in great demand as a soloist and chamber musician. His burgeoning career as a clarinet soloist has taken him to Festivals in Spain, France, the Netherlands, and the U.S. Recently, he was invited to perform in Győr, Hungary for the European Clarinet Festival, which led to a special invitation from the Győr Symphonic Band to record four hugely enjoyable concertos for clarinet and wind orchestra. These are conducted by László Marosi, the world’s foremost authority on Hungarian wind music, and Ferenc Szabó, the founder of the Györ Symphonic Band.

Marvelous ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review for the Eusebius Quartet's Elgar & Fauré String Quartets in BBC Music Magazine!

“Fauré's String Quartet was written six years after Elgar's in 1924, and was his last completed composition. Its elusive opening movement is clearly linked by the Eusebius to the probingly introspective world of Beethoven’s late quartets, all four instruments equally eloquent in their interactions with one another. The central Andante movement is exquisite, its subtly inflected hues of sadness fully reflected in the Eusebius's sentient playing.

The 'floating on air' quality that suffuses the music of Fauré quartet is difficult to catch, but it’s sustained across all three movements of this constantly stimulating interpretation.” —Terry Blain
