SoNA’s principal clarinetist, Trevor Stewart, brings his elegance and poise to the Concerto for Clarinet by Mozart.  Written just months before his untimely death, this is one of his most sublime and intimate works.   We open with a fugue from Venezuela by Aldemaro Romero, and Beethoven’s 3rd Symphony, from the beginnings of the composer’s Romantic style (and written only ten years after the Mozart) completes the program.
