Heroes & Heroines of Clarinettistry contains a representative
selection of articles written over a 40-year period by Pamela
Weston, well-known as an authority in all aspects relating to the
clarinet, especially its performers and the composers who wrote for
them. New and fascinating information is revealed on best-known
composer/clarinettist relationships such as Mozart with Anton
Stadler, Weber with Heinrich Baermann, Spohr with Simon Hermstedt
and Brahms with Richard Muhlfeld. Further subjects include the
following: clarinettists of the French Revolution (including a map
of Paris showing where they lived), Russia's clarinet dynasty,
early 19th-century female performers, the great Finnish
clarinettist Crussell whose diary tells of French Revolution events
and a Napoleonic military parade, Verdi's clarinettist Cavallini
who played for and was on familiar terms with the Tsar, the full
stories of Stanford's concerto (it was Pamela Weston who got this
beautiful work published for the first time, fifty years after the
composer's death) and Ireland's Fantasy-Sonata (how the composer
worked with the Sonata's dedicatee, Frederick Thurston). These
articles were originally published in the following journals: The
Clarinet (U.S.A.), National Association of College Wind &
Percussion Instructors (U.S.A.), Clarinet & Saxophone (U.K.),
Musical Times (U.K.), Music & Musicians (U.K.), Music Teacher
(U.K.).
