Farewell - Larry Ashmore
06 March 2013
Josef Weinberger Limited is saddened to report of the death of Larry Ashmore, who suffered a stroke on Monday 4th March.
His works in the Weinberger catalogue are his orchestration of Patrick Doyle’s music for Kenneth Branagh’s film Henry V, which has been performed in concert by orchestras the world over and his arrangement (for the American clarinettist Richard Stolzman) of The Four Seasons and Greensleeves, for which our company was planning a new print edition, was slowly but surely finding its way into the standard clarinet œuvre. This edition will be released in the near future.
