Aesthetic Apparatus: Clarinet Chamber Music Of Hel

Oakes, Gregory; Work, George; Sturm, Jonathan; Huang, Mei-Hsuan; Coley, Matthew

Clarinetist Gregory Oakes releases a recording of the complete chamber works for clarinet by eminent German composer Helmut Lachenmann, the first recording including all three together. Of particular interest is Oakes’ and his colleagues’ virtuosic performance of the seldom heard "Trio Fluido" for clarinet, viola, and percussion. Gregory Oakes is an exciting and energetic clarinetist and a passionate champion of the music of our time. From his Carnegie Hall debut with members of Ensemble Intercontemporain and Pierre Boulez to his performances as a member of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, Mr. Oakes has been praised by critics for his “outstanding performance” (New York Times) and “jazzy flourishes”(Denver Post). American Record Guide says “Oakes is the rare player who has both excellent classical training and a mastery of the otherworldly procedures demanded by non-traditional repertoire,” and Fanfare Magazine lauds the “formidable technical armamentarium at his command.”
