Carlos Ferreira

Carlos Ferreira pursues a twin career as an orchestral player (formerly with the Philharmonia Orchestra and, most recently, as Principal Clarinet with the Orchestre National de France), chamber musician and recitalist. His magnetic playing, deep rooted understanding of musical style and attention to the finest detail, have won him widespread praise. He’ll bring all these qualities to the playful melodies of Joseph Horovitz’s Sonatina, Debussy’s expressive and seductive First Rhapsody (a deserved cornerstone of the clarinet repertoire) and to his specially commissioned work for this ECHO Rising Stars tour by Lanqing Ding, a fresh and inventive voice in contemporary music.
