Anthony McGill on Saint Paul Sunday
On the Saint Paul Sunday Website there is an archived recording of clarinetist Anthony McGill and pianist Natalie Zhu playing a few pieces. Among those performed are Poulenc's Sonata for Clarinet and Piano, Debussy's Premiére Rhapsodie, and Brahms Sonata No. 2 in E-flat Major.
...what? Poulanc?? Who's that?? Poulenc, Francis Poulenc for sure!
