What Makes It Great?
with Rob Kapilow
Mozart's Clarinet Concerto, with A Far Cry 
Featuring Romie de Guise-Langlois, clarinet

NEC's Jordan Hall

Host Rob Kapilow, Boston's A Far Cry chamber orchestra, and clarinetist Romie de Guise-Langlois—hailed as "extraordinary" by the New York Times—unlock the secrets of the most celebrated clarinet concerto ever written.

Composed just weeks before Mozart's death at age 35, this luminous masterpiece helped establish the clarinet as a true solo voice in the orchestra. Blending in-depth analysis with storytelling, fun facts, and plenty of good humor, Kapilow will put this late treasure in a dazzling new light and forever change how you listen to Mozart. 

“Rob Kapilow has an exceptional gift for illuminating music's secrets without diminishing its magic.”
