Turned out to be more than a moment. When Mozart's Clarinet Concerto started play on iTunes shuffle, it became a calming experience. After a few bars, I sat back and enjoyed the entire concerto as nothing else mattered. Nothing did. No doubt my heart slowed down a beat or two.
Compared to other symphonic works, I cannot explain why that Mozart composition calms me every time it is heard.
Good stuff, Lloyd. You'll also love his clarinet quintet then, assuming you're not already familiar with it.
ReplyDeleteGlenn, Not familiar with the clarinet quintet. Listened to fragments at the iTunes store. More good Mozart. When in Tucson, I'll check the bins at Bookmans for a used copy. Thanks for the heads up.
