Info zu 5th International Clarinet Competition Ghent

Ursprünglich sollte dieser fünfte Klarinettenwettbewerb Teil des "Van Eyck-Projekts 2020 - 2021" sein. Jeder weiß, warum sich dies um ein Jahr verzögert hat. Für diesen Wettbewerb wurden drei Komponisten gebeten, ein neues Werk zu schreiben, das von dem charakteristischen Gemälde von Jan Van Eyck, "Anbetung des mystischen Lammes", inspiriert ist. Dies ist den Komponisten Alain Crepin (Lam Gods Impressions), Johan Duijck (L'Homme désarmé) und Dirk Brossé (The Secret of the Mystic Lamb) auf ganz besondere Weise gelungen.

Der Internationale Klarinettenwettbewerb Gent wird nun schon zum fünften Mal veranstaltet. Er hat sich inzwischen zu einem besonderen und hochgeschätzten Wettbewerb entwickelt, der aufgrund seines großen und schnell wachsenden Erfolges Anmeldungen von mehr als 200 Kandidaten aus 5 Kontinenten angezogen hat. Von diesen wurden 65 Klarinettisten zur Teilnahme ausgewählt.

Auf diesem Album können Sie sich die drei Finalisten anhören und ihr außergewöhnliches Spiel genießen. Begleitet vom Symphonieorchester Flandern, dem Zemlinsky-Quartett, Johan Duijck (Klavier) und der Sopranistin Franches Dhont nehmen sie Sie mit in die Atmosphäre des Wettbewerbs!
