Martin frost is a Swedish Clarientist. He is in ever-increasing demand to appear with major orchestras worldwide. He has been appointed artist in residence with the Hamburg and Gothenburg Symphony Orchestras as well as the Iceland Symphony Orchestra. He will also appear with the Orchestre National de Bordeaux Aquitaine as well as the Orquesta Sinfonica de Euskadi and the Real Orquesta Sinfónica de Sevilla, the Czech Philharmonic and the Oslo Philharmonic.

When i was listening to the performace i like where it is located. The window shows snow, and wilderness, which reminds me of the clarinet sounds that he is making. It just seems to all fit togeather. He does like really funny when he plays, cause hes moving the Clarinet around so much. and he kinda looks consitpated, but thats kinda what i probaly look like to when i play it.

The range is beautiful,. and his clarity is perfect. his tone is good. Hes actually pretty good all togeahter. Theres really nothing wrong with his overall sound. He keeps up with this fellow players, and he is in time. i can get a key signature out of the song from him. The only thing that i didnt like was his posture and how he was moving the clairnet around, and not holding it in a proper position.

overal he is a great clarinetist!
