Synergy: Clarinet Concertos for Wind Band, Yeh (CD)

Chicago Symphony Orchestra clarinetist John Bruce Yeh joins forces with his wife, Teresa Reilly, and daughter, Food Network star Molly Yeh, in a compilation of concertos and double concertos for clarinet. Described by the composer as "a panoramic clarinet concerto," Daugherty's Brooklyn Bridge pays tribute to the splendid views from this New York landmark. David's Fantasy Etudes pay tribute to Stravinsky and Ligeti, while McAllister's Black Dog rhapsodizes on the classic Led Zeppelin song. Recorded in 2007 at Columbus State University, Georgia.
