Subj: Re: MAXWELL-DAVIES CLARINET CONCERTO
Date: Thu, 26 Oct 1995 15:46:23 -0400

Recently I had the pleasure of hearing the CD of one of the
"Strathclyde Concertos" by Peter Maxwell Davies. The Clarinet Concerto was
recorded by Lewis Morrison and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra on the
Collins label. It's a fine new piece, very challenging and very worthy of
the attention of players.
My question is this...can any of our colleagues in the UK tell me
anything about Lewis Morrison? Is he principal in the SCO? His
performance of this work is really quite fine; his control in the
altissimo is phenomenal. Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks so much.
