CLARINET SHADOWS (San Francisco)

  • San Francisco Conservatory of Music 50 Oak Street San Francisco, CA, 94102 United States (map)

Featuring clarinetists Jerome Simas and Jeff Anderle, this haunting Left Coast Ensemble program pairs Brahms’ autumnal clarinet quintet with Jonathan Russell’s On Sorrow. Inspired by and quoting Tomas Luis de Victoria’s O Vos Omnes, Russell’s quintet explores mortality, consolation, and common humanity across the centuries, finding common themes with one of Brahms’ final and most profound chamber works.
