Here is the world premiere performance of the Leshoff Clarinet Concerto played by Ricardo Morales. That quick upper register articulation and the cadenza in the second movement are something to behold!
But why is the audience so sparse?

The Leshoff Concerto was excellent, and Ricardo was fantastic! I attended the performance on Saturday night, May 16--the house was full and the audience VERY appreciative of an incredible performance.

Is it another "boom-squeak" piece or is there musical content?

Thanks for the honesty.
I stop at the beginning of the 20th century. I'm a melody guy.

No squeaks and no booms, just a very beautiful piece performed by a master. And yes, it is very melodic and should satisfy those who are not aficionados of much post-early- 20th century music, among whom I include myself.

Nice playing.
The piece is consonant and lyrical, but not really melodic. He uses lyrical phrases as cells and restates them over and again in different keys--pretty common technique in contemporary tonal/modal music. I agree with Glenn...you won't come away humming a melody, unless you happen to know your Kenny Dorham tunes...one of his important motives bears a pretty strong resemblance to "Blue Bossa."
