GRAMMY® NOMINATED FOR BEST CLASSICAL COMPENDIUM
ASPIRE is a GRAMMY® nominated album featuring clarinetist Seunghee Lee and bandoneonist and composer JP Jofre, joined by the London Symphony Orchestra. The album’s centerpiece is the world premiere recording of Jofre’s Double Concerto for Clarinet and Bandoneon, first concerto ever written for this combination, commissioned by and written expressly for Seunghee Lee, who has been recognized by Clarinet Magazine as “an uncompromising soloist, destined to be an upcoming contender of top stature.” Five other original compositions by Jofre round out the program, along with the Aria (Cantilena) from Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5 and an orchestral arrangement of Piazzolla’s Tango Etude No. 3, also commissioned from Jofre by Lee.
