Although i am not playing it, i recently heard the 4 spohr concertos, and i gotta say, they’re probably some of the best I’ve come across. Now I know these works are absurdly hard, from the big octave 16th note jumps in 3, to the unclarinetlike arpeggios in 2 and 1, the stratospheric high notes, and spohrs desire to suffocate clarinetists to death, but they are so fun to listen to, and the effort would be well worth it, especially one of the easier ones like the 3rd movement of spohr 1 and the 3rd movement of spohr 3. (Dont get me wrong they look hard, just not as absurd as the 1st of 1,2, and 3). Its really surprising they arent played more, and I’m thinking of tackling one of them later, which one/movement would you guys recommend?
