Strange Loops presents clarinettist Mark van de Wiel with colleagues from the Philharmonia Orchestra in three works spanning over two centuries of chamber music. The album centres on the first recording of Anna Clyne’s Strange Loops, written in 2020 and exploring repeating and transforming musical patterns. It is paired with Ruth Gipps’s Rhapsody, a single-movement work highlighting the clarinet’s lyrical and colouristic qualities, and Carl Maria von Weber’s virtuosic Clarinet Quintet, composed for Heinrich Baermann. Recorded at Garsington Studios in 2024, the programme reflects van de Wiel’s longstanding commitment to both contemporary and established clarinet repertoire.
