They are not mere postscripts to careers, pale codicils to august musical testaments, a lesser afterglow. Indeed not! These sonates-adieux by three towering masters are among the very finest works for clarinet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51199222e4b0dcc6d8979eae/f7c575fb-a28c-4bb0-a962-ab4220a8749d/Classics+Today_2.jpg Home - “Clairvoyant Collaborators”. Classics Today reviews Epilogues “The title “Epilogues” refers to the fact that Brahms, Saint-Saëns, and Poulenc wrote clarinet sonatas at the end of their composing careers. More importantly, clarinetist Maksim Shtrykov and pianist Misuzu Tanaka serve up world-class performances of these works that yield nothing to competing catalog versions.” Jed Distler, Classics Today https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/51199222e4b0dcc6d8979eae/76ef8988-acf0-4efa-9d94-dc736c60a899/MusicWeb+International_1.jpg Home - "A real affection behind the enterprise: affection for the composers and between the musicians." MusicWeb International reviews album Epilogues It is a strange thing that three composers as different as Brahms, Saint-Saëns and Poulenc should each have turned to the clarinet late in their respective careers. It goes without saying almost that the sound of the clarinet provokes the idea of the autumnal shading into the wintry – or perhaps autumnal masterpieces such as the clarinet quintets of Mozart and Brahms have imprinted these associations in our minds? Either way, these ‘last thoughts’ are the theme of this lovely album. The title ‘Epilogues’ seems appropriate since all three works sit outside the main body of each composer’s work, reflecting on a life in a largely low key, somewhat nostalgic manner.
