Join the Silverwood Clarinet Choir for an enchanting afternoon of music at Clarinet Serenade on World Clarinet Day — a celebration of the rich, expressive sound of the clarinet family. The program features beloved classics including Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and Vivaldi’s Concerto Grosso, beautifully arranged for clarinet choir. Contemporary works written specifically for the ensemble, such as Clarinet Moods, highlight the instrument’s lyrical and dynamic range.
Guest artist Allan Kolsky, principal clarinet of the Syracuse Orchestra, will perform an expressive clarinet solo by Ciesla and lead the choir as conductor. Ronald Caravan, retired professor from Syracuse University, will be featured on saxophone in the evocative Aeolian Song. The concert concludes with Autumn Leaves, setting the perfect tone for a beautiful evening of music and the colors of fall.
The Silverwood Clarinet Choir unites 13 accomplished musicians to celebrate the expressive power of the clarinet in all its voices. With rich harmonies, dynamic energy, and a repertoire spanning centuries and styles, the ensemble delivers performances that delight audiences and highlight the beauty and versatility of the clarinet family. Silverwood is entering its 19th year with members from Onondaga, Oswego, Madison and Cayuga Counties, New York.
