Wenzel Fuchs: Mozart Soloists of the Berliner Philharmoniker

“It can be asserted without hesitation that every member of a first-class orchestra deserves to be called an ‘artist’,” Arthur Nikisch once wrote.

Principal Clarinet Wenzel Fuchs is showcased here with what is perhaps the most famous concerto ever written for his instrument: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto in A major. The Innsbruck native has been a member of the Berliner Philharmoniker since 1993. Fuchs performs the work under the baton of Alan Gilbert, with whom he shares not only an artistic friendship but also a passion for skiing.
