The widely respected E-flat clarinet player Walter Seyfarth, who joined the Berlin Philharmonic under Karajan in 1985, will play his farewell concert in Berlin this Friday.

Another Karajan veteran, the bass clarinet player Manfred Preis, retired last month.

Both have been quietly replaced by Slovenians.

Matic Kuder, who starts in December, is solo clarinet of the Nürnberger Symphoniker. Andraž Golobis a member of the Orchestra academy of the Vienna Philharmonic.

Big day for little Slovenia.
