WOW, I just got back from a performance put on by the Munich Symphony Orchestra and it was AMAZING!!! Whats more it was in my hometown of JOPLIN!!! I hadn't seen a professional orchestra live until today, and...WOW!!! The concert featured piano soloist Phillipe Entremont (Conductor and Pianist). The concert was superb (they played Strauss's Sextet from Capriccio, Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major, Op. 58, and my personal favorite Schubert's Symphony No. 9 in C Major D. 944 "The Great"). My only complaint is the names of the clarinet players were not given in the program (everone BUT the clarinetists!!!). Anyone know their names??
Thanks
Clayton

I could not find anything on the "Munich Symphony Orchestra" (or Symphonie Orchester Munchen auf Deutsch) but I was able to find the Bavarian Symphony (Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks) and the clarinetists are:
Stefan Schilling*
Joachim Olszewski
Werner Mittelbach
Bettina Faiss
Christopher Corbett

Hello,
Their first concert on tour was in Annapolis. I heard the concert. It was good, not great. Entremont's performance of the Mozart Concerto #21 was quite impressive. On my program (if memory serves correctly) the clarinetist's names were inadvertently included in the oboe section. Paul Maier was indeed first, but I don't know who was playing second. I went backstage and talked to the principal flautist--he was quite amazing and dominated the wind section's sound.

The oboe player for the Joplin performance could always be heard and was featured often. I learned a lot by just watching and listening to both the clarinets and the trombones. Definietly an experience to remember!!
