Clarnival French Touch (2023)

BBC Music: “A varied musical menu, from a Breton dance suite via tango and mazurka to Debussy and Berlioz, ensures that the fairly uniform soundstage never palls in this centuries-spanning smorgasbord of music for clarinet quartet. Most adventurous is Maxime Aulio’s Arachnophobie, which uses glissandos, slaps and more to conjure encounters with our eight-legged friends/foes.”
