Below: Enjoy this peek at conductor Jonathan Girard leading the UBC Symphony Orchestra through the second movement of Weber’s Clarinet Concerto No. 2 in E-Flat Major. In this movement, the clarinet-solo voice imitates a haunting and heartbreaking tenor aria.

Renowned clarinettist, Jose Franch-Ballester is a captivating performer who has been hailed for his “poetic eloquence” (The New York Sun), and “technical wizardry” (New York Times).⁠
