Dimitri Ashkenazy
“Dimitri Ashkenazy is an individual and captivating artist. His clarinet can sing gently, he shapes the phrases lovingly: just as one likes to hear.” (tz)

Reviews
“He surprised us from the first phrase of Aaron Copland’s Clarinet Concerto with wonderfully sensitive and songlike expression. In the second movement he transformed himself into a jazzman, with siren-like howls which worked well in this piece, composed in 1949 for Benny Goodman.” (Muenchner Abendzeitung, February 2010)
