About
This disc is an exploration of abstract clarinet-and-piano music from the 20th Century. The six items on this programme include three sonatas, one sonatine, a set of pieces which taken together closely resemble a sonata, and another set inspired by the latter. All six might be considered to be rather off the beaten recital-programme path and all six convey something of their national origins. Certainly all have retained particular currency in their composers’ respective countries.

His tone is not just beautiful but finely graded over the widest dynamic and expressive range. Not only that, but his response to lyrical writing, ever sensitive, is matched by his natural feeling for jazzy Cuban rhythms...Though the clarinet is forwardly balanced in the recording, that allows one to appreciate the artistry of Cristo Barrios all the more clearly, well matched by his pianist, Clinton Cormany.
