Beethoven's Symphonic Septet and Brahms’ Love Song to the Clarinet

Experience the whimsy of a young Beethoven, exploring expressive orchestral landscapes with his game-changing Septet in E flat major.  And feel how Brahms, late in life, fell head-over-heels in love with
​the clarinet; it is ever-apparent in his exquisitely romantic Sonata Op. 120 for clarinet and piano.
