Episode 20: Stories of Original Wind Instruments - Part 2

Marie speaks with her colleagues, specialists of historical performance, about their original wind instruments. They tell the stories of their favorite instruments - where and how they got them, and what they had to do to play it again today! German oboist, Peter Wuttke, talks about the English Horn by Carl Theodor Golde that was played in the orchestra in Weimar that Liszt was conducting. He tells us about how he used this instrument for a recording of the Liszt Dante Symphony. Italian clarinetist, Luigi Magistrelli, tells us the incredible story of his set of clarinets that he acquired from the legendary player, Dieter Klöcker, just before his death. We hear all about these instruments, their history, and Luigi's personal experience of playing them and recording his CD of Brahms chamber music with them. Argentinian historical trumpet player, Alejandro Sandler, chats with us about his cornet by Thibouville-Lamy which was owned by a student of Jean-Baptiste Arban. He plays the Carnival of Venice on this cornet and on the modern trumpet so you can hear the difference!
