In the arrangement of Mozart’s Clarinet Quintet, the solo part is divided between the solo viola and the first violin. The result is a remarkable string quintet with elegant exchanges between violin, cello and viola which characterise the movement as it progresses. The highly contrapuntal writing of the development section, in which each string instrument gives its version of the viola’s opening phrase, testifies to Mozart’s recent study of J.S. Bach which had a major effect on all his late music.
Lars Anders Tomter belongs in the international elite of soloists, touring all over the world. He is also Professor of viola at the Norwegian Academy of Music, and Artistic Director of the Risør Chamber Music Festival together with Leif Ove Andsnes.
