Description:
Johann Melchior Molter (1696-1765) was a German violinist, composer and conductor. Molter is important for clarinetists, as his clarinet concertos are among the earliest representatives of the genre. His work was influenced by Italian music during his first time in Karlsruhe, where he also incorporated French elements. After his arrival in Eisenach, his proximity to Central German composers, such as Georg Philipp Telemann and Johann Bernhard Bach, became apparent. After his second trip to Italy, he was increasingly influenced by the Neapolitan school. Concerto No. 5 in D major (MWV VI/36)Julia Drukh presents a charming, virtuoso arrangement of the Concerto in D major for clarinet and piano. The clarinet part contains individually designed interpretative elements – including ornamentation, stylistic adjustments to the musical text and specially developed small cadenzas. The piano part was developed by Nikolai Gangnus on the basis of the orchestral score and depicts the tonal structure of the original orchestral movement in a tonally convincing arrangement for piano. The arrangement was the first piano reduction to be made, as there was only one orchestral score available so far. Julia Drukh's interpretation is characterised by her own ornaments and newly composed cadenzas in the clarinet part. Julia Drukh is a German-Russian clarinetist. After studying with Wolfgang Meyer, she completed her postgraduate studies with distinction with Norbert Kaiser. She looks back on many years of work as an orchestral musician. Since October 2024, she has been principal clarinetist at the Plauen-Zwickau Theatre and holds a teaching position at the HMDK Stuttgart. She is a prizewinner of international competitions, performs as a soloist and chamber musician at home and abroad and is one of the few clarinettists who have mastered both the German and French systems at the same high level. Nikolai Gangnus received his pianistic training in Moscow and Karlsruhe. He completed his concert exam with distinction. Since his solo debut in 1992, he has performed regularly in Europe and Russia. As a prizewinner of several international piano competitions, he dedicates himself to a versatile concert activity as a soloist and chamber musician.
