At its centre is Greenbaum’s Sonata for Clarinet – a work of plangent atmospheric sound; a journey that subsumes the listener. Clarinetist David Griffith’s interpretation is bespoke, masterful. With associate artists Timothy Young and Ken Murray, the album provides a rewarding arc of chamber music.This is Greenbaum’s 10th solo album, captured in high definition at 96k/24b and recorded in the superb acoustics of Hanson Dyer Hall in November 2021, supported by The Melbourne Conservatorium of Music within the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music at The University of Melbourne. Available in hard copy on Lyrebird, this album is distributed digitally through ABC Classic.
