Hallo Chuck and Ragnhild.

Yes of course I know of Martin Fröst. He is a great swedish musician and he
has done a lot of spectacular recordings and perfomances. I've heard him a
couple of times. Once he played and danced dressed as a harlequin.
I dont know where you can reach him but I'm sure his recordcompany can help
you. It's BIS Records AB and here's where you can get in touch with them:
Tel +46-8-544 102-30
Fax +46-8-544 102-40
You can also look at:
www.bis.se

On this website you can see the recordings Martin has made up to date. Some
examples:

Close Ups: Anders Hillborg: Nursery Rhymes; Close Ups for clarinet and
percussion. Pär Lindgren: Beep-Ooh for clarinet and percussion; Woodpeckers'
Chant for percussion. Edison Denisov: Sonata for B flat Clarinet. Joann
Kuchera-Morin: Yugen for clarinet solo. Niklas Sivelöv: Twist and Shout for
clarinet solo. Fredrik Högberg: PlastMusikk for clarinet, percussion and
tape.

Bernhard Henrik Crusell: A) Introduction, Theme and Variations on a Swedish
Air, Op.12, for clarinet and wind band. Mats Larsson: B) Concerto for
trombone and wind instruments. Nils Tykesson: Tre arabesker (Three
Arabesques). Peter Bengtson: 'Hekas! for symphonic winds. (with Östgöta
Blåsarsymfoniker conducted by Arie van Beek; A) Martin Fröst, clarinet; B)
Christian Lindberg, trombone.)

FRENCH BEAUTIES AND SWEDISH BEASTS (with Roland Pöntinen, piano): Claude
Debussy: Première Rhapsodie for clarinet and piano. Camille Saint-Saëns:
Sonata for clarinet and piano. Francis Poulenc: Sonata for clarinet and
piano. Ingvar Lidholm: Amicizia for clarinet solo. Anders Hillborg: Tampere

Hope this may help you
