Alto clarinets should be in every orchestra and ensemble. They just tie everything together.

Tout à fait d'accord. Super!

It's interesting hearing a clarinet choir do this piece, because all of these instruments are in the original orchestration (yes, even the contrabasses). It's kind of like a seeing a famous painting rendered in shades of red only. Neat. We need more band music that exploits the instrument families' outliers.

I love listening to the likes of Holst and Grainger because of their use larger instrumentations. Large clarinet groups, bass oboe, harmony flutes... I want more of it.

Not the alto clarinets. If they were truly in their original orchestrations they would be playing the opening solo in the fourth movement not the clarinets

As a clarinetist and a lover of the Holst Suites, I love this!

my eye keeps getting drawn to that stellar E-flat clarinetist! E-flat players always have this spriteliness to their playing style, the way they move their hands and bodies. it’s mesmerizing!

And what a difference it makes. They really tie the Bbs in with the bases. The alto is so underrated.

I remember playing this in my high school band i was a freshman MT Whitney high 1987 Visalia CA

A slower and quiet string like sound of a ensemble of clarinet must be one of the most interesting sounds ever.

Wow!Wow! Wow! C'est la première fois que j'entends cette pièce. C'est le meilleur ensemble de clarinettes que j'ai entendu. Je jouais de la clarinette contrebasse (Leblanc) dans un ensemble à Trois-Rivières, Québec Canada. Bel enregistrement. Belle fusion de tous les instruments. Magnifique.

Or at least done on the upper range of bass clarinet so you still get that full resonant brass quality.

As an alto clarinet player (best horn for the blues after the electric guitar!), I agree: we are discriminated against. And this the most altos I've ever seen. Anywhere.

Wonderful! So much warmth coming out of those alto clarinets.

One of my favorite pieces of music. I would never have imagined it arranged for a clarinet ensemble but it makes sense as they are a major component of the work. Very nicely done!

A mark of an outstanding composition is that it works in various orchestrations. I love those mid-range and low clarinets! Here we have Gustaf Holst 2nd Military Suite arranged and performed by an exceptional clarinet choir.

This is quite good, so I'm surprised that it sounds like the Bb clarinets didn't tune before the performance. The places where several Bb's play a melody together sound like their tuning is quite spread.

I don't think tuning beforehand makes much difference. You just have to listen and adjust. Evidently they didn't.

im kind of confused, is the solo for 1st movement "march" meant as an actual solo with a single player or with the entire section.

There are some really quality moments of music making here, despite the distracting sharpness from the E-flat soprano in the second movement.

Per favore, Maestro Caputo, com'è formata l'orchestra? So riconoscere i clarinetti bassi e il contrabasso, ma non saprei dire se ci siano alti o corni di bassetto. Grazie.
