  • He was born in 1946 and studied in Bern, Lausanne and Paris with J. Lancelot and then won 1st prize at the International Geneva competition along with "Prix Ernest Ansermet" in 1972. From 1971 to 1986 he was principal clarinetist of the Berner Symphonie-Orchester, then occupied the same position in the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne until 2008

  • He performed worldwide, appeared at events such as the Lucerne, Gstaad, São Paulo festivals, and many more. He premiered pieces by composers like Sandor Veress etc. And for his recording of the Mozart concerto (which is really one of the very best) he received a Gold Record from Claves.

  • He was also a very fine chamber musician and a much dedicated teacher giving masterclasses worldwide and leading a class at the Conservatoire de Genève from 1978 until his death in April 2008 in Madeira where he had a trekking accident. Here you go!

  • @IRTAMI no, i actually think its called dislikeing a vidoe

  • This had to be composed in the winter.

  • Brahms came out of retirement IN ORDER to write this, and the two sonatas, because he met and heard the remarkable clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld.

  • 1 person has anti-romanticism syndrome

  • Фридли погиб в результате несчастного случая, упав с 80-метровой скалы на острове Мадейра.

  • I love this piece so much!!!

  • A wonderful performance

  • Una de las más grandes y eternas obras de arte en música de cámara... sin palabras.

  • I always marvel at the tone and texture of this piece...for me, there's not another quite like it in all of music.

  • Wonderful piece
