The programme features the Clarinet Concerto in A K622 and the Clarinet Quintet in A K581 by her favourite composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, both written at the end of his life for Austrian clarinet and basset horn player Anton Stadler. These ‘sublime’, very popular works are a perfect showcase for the outstanding abilities of Paul Dean.
The Brisbane-born clarinettist Paul Dean is much in demand as a soloist, chamber and orchestral musician and teacher. He was principal clarinet with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra between 1987 and 2000. He has premiered over 70 works including his brother Brett Dean’s clarinet concerto Ariel’s Music. He is also a composer.
Brilliant young French conductor Guillaume Tourniaire is currently enjoying a meteoric rise onto the international conducting stage. The Grainger Quartet, named after Australian composer Percy Grainger, was founded in 2006 by violinists Natsuko Yoshimoto and James Cuddeford, and violist Jeremy Williams, all of the former Australian String Quartet.
“… in both works Paul Dean demonstrates his exemplary fluency and a stylish, marvellously phrased affinity for Mozart's classical demands. Moreover conductor Tourniaire appears to have the measure of the enduringly superlative score. Still better, Dean and the Grainger Quartet turn in a sensitive, eminently competitive account of the Clarinet Quintet.” - Music & Vision Daily (Feb 2009)
