“The virtuoso bass clarinetist Jeff Reilly extends his cadenzas across the history of sound, from monotony to modernism, in a performance that is dominant and often hypnotic” Norman Lebrecht ¬Jeff Reilly has been praised internationally for his innovative, exploratory, and masterful performances on the bass clarinet. An improviser as well as a skilled interpreter, the emotional beauty of his performance style blurs any simple distinctions between the improvised and the written, and reminds us that such distinctions are moot. As a soloist he has appeared on ECM records, ATMA Classique, and Warner Classics, and most recently on his own project To Dream of Silence. He has performed in concert halls around the world - Shanghai, London, New York, Moscow, Riga, Paris, and more. A composer, music producer and conductor as well as a bass clarinetist, he has produced a catalogue of CDs that are released on Naxos, CBC records, Tafelmusik Media, and Warner Classics. He maintains a career as a music producer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
