PASC012 - Mozart Clarinet Quintet CD

Play sample movement:

Natural Sound"Like the great Clarinet Concerto, this work was written for the Viennese clarinettist Anton Stadler; it has always been regarded as one of the flowers of the chamber music repertory. Many people have been led to explore the great world of chamber music through this gate; it is difficult to imagine a listener who could remain deaf to a flow of melody so limpid and serene. The charms of the clarinet - its incomparably gentle legato, its agility, its sudden plunges down two octaves into a deep, brown pool - all are exhibited by Mozart as though the instrument were a beautiful woman with whom he had just fallen in love."

(The Record Guide, 1952)

 

Reginald Kell (1906-81) was one of Britains finest clarinettists, and in this 1945 recording, made on 5th and 7th February of that year, we find him on top form in one of the greatest works for that instrument. "No other clarinetist can match Mr. Kell's tone & emotion", wrote Stereo Review about him - as this newly XR-remastered gem proves!

FAQ
FLAC info

FLAC downloads use lossless compression - when replayed or transferred to disc they are bit- identical to original recordings.

16 BIT files are at full CD resolution, identical to our CD masters.

24 BIT files are at higher, studio master resolution, identical to our finished master files.

Please ensure you can play our 24 bit FLAC files before purchase - try our test files here.

Not all media players support FLAC yet, so you may need to convert to WAV or AIFF before playback. See our FLAC help guide

FLAC downloads come as a series of tracks in a ZIP archive file.

 

MP3 info

Our MP3 files are encoded at very high variable bitrates using the LAME encoder or at a constant rate of 320kbps.

Each recording is presented as a single, long MP3 which can be split using the CUE sheet at the bottom of the page, adding track titles and other information.

CD writing programs such as Nero and Burrrn can write these files directly to CD with all track information added using MP3+CUE - see our tutorial

Alternatively a cue splitter program can automatically cut and name the MP3 into individual MP3 tracks

There are also media players which use the MP3+CUE system, allowing gapless playback of all long MP3 files - essential for opera and many other classical works
