Maurice Clare, the violinist on this recording, studied with several renowned pedagogues including Otakar Ševčík, Carl Flesch, and Georges Enescu.
Performer Biography
Maurice Clare and his wife, Hungarian pianist Marta Zalan, were supported by the British Council in the 1950s, giving recitals throughout former colonies.
Recording & Production
The album was likely held back from release due to Nimbus's relocation from Birmingham to Wyastone Leys in autumn 1975, which shifted focus to rebuilding and LP manufacturing.
Recording & Production
The recording of Telemann's Fantasias was made in August 1974, but the recording agreement with Maurice Clare was not dated until April 1975, eight months later.
Recording & Production
This album is part of Nimbus's 'Rediscovered Recordings' series, featuring projects that were unissued for decades, some dating back to the label's founding in the late 1960s.
Recording & Production
Many of the 'rediscovered' recordings, including this one, were originally recorded on one-inch, four-track, 30ips analogue tapes, which were transferred to digital at 192k.
Performer Biography
Maurice Clare helped form the nucleus of New Zealand's National Symphony Orchestra in 1939, after being invited by the National Broadcasting Service.
