From 11-13 December 2014 the 4th European Clarinet Congress was held in Katowice, Poland. While I’ve been involved with the past International clarinet festivals, this was my first European. I was invited to perform a solo concert, where I premiered a solo clarinet piece Fáessa by Thanos Chrysakis, and also played a couple of my bass clarinet favorites, Monólogo Fantástico by Francisco Castillo Trigueros and Wake Up Call by Robert Ratcliffe.
