Leipzig laments its principal clarinet
RIPMembers of the Gewandhaus orchestra are mourning Thomas Ziesch, who died unexpectedly at the age of 69.
He had been principal clarinet of te elite orchestra for over 30 years and a member of the Gewandhaus wind quintet since 1989.
Woodwind quintet, maybe?
Brass quintet?!? You mean wind quintet.
R.I.P.
A clarinet player in the brass quintet? That really is something.
RIP
Brass quintet? Do you mean wind quintet?
“Blaeserquintett!” Let’s get a life. He and this group played phenomenally and he will be missed. THAT’S the important thought in this article.
Thomas Ziesch was 59 (*22.12.1962). A wonderful musician and a decent and lovely human being. RIP
