A performer, a composer, a common passion: the clarinet. Philippe Berrod - principal solo clarinet with the Orchestre de Paris - and Alexis Ciesia, whose musical success continues to grow - these two are surrounded by talented instrumentalists* in order to highlight, with sensitivity and virtuosity, all the abilities of the clarinet.

“We conceived this “Fantasia” as a free variation without limits based around the clarinet. We wanted to revisit the classical Sonata form for clarinet and piano and to combine clarinet and strings in a free expression between chamber music and concerto. As in any immediate and ephemeral musical experience, we felt a need to improvise in order to celebrate this coming together. We wanted to invite a young, fresh clarinet ensemble to join us, as well as a saxophone quartet to ignite the display with their sounds and rhythms”. (Philippe Berrod)
