Listen to the wind: When considering Mozart’s vast body of work, the clarinet may not be top of mind. Yet, in 1789 the composer “had the wonderful idea of combining a clarinet with a string quartet. The result was one of the greatest musical masterpieces of all time,” says David Shifrin, who will perform the composition, Quintet in A Major for Clarinet, Two Violins, Viola, and Cello, K. 581, along with works by Luigi Bassi and Duke Ellington. The event is one of eight in a series to which the Tuesday Evening Concert Series has been granted special access.
