Larghetto

14 pieces for clarinet and piano, with German pianist Florian Henschel. Miniature masterpieces in which we are Koechlin's companions on his lengthy trips - not so smart luxury hotels or on cruise ships, but with a tent, a rucksack and invariably a heavy Verascope, a camera with which he took fabulous pictures. Spain, North Africa, Turkey and most especially Greece feature on the itinerary.
