David Earl's Clarinet Concerto was written in 2012 and dedicated to Maria du Toit.  The première was in Durban, South Africa, by the KwaZulu-Natal Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Arjan Tien and with Maria du Toit as soloist.  Maria has performed the work in Colorado (USA), Eindhoven and Amsterdam, and in Cape Town.  Her recent recording of the piece by Channel Classics is due to be released in 2025.

The Goois Symphony Orchestra is for advanced amateurs and retired professional musicians who enjoy a challenge.  The GSO was founded around 40 years ago, as Musica Instrumentalis.  The first conductor was a famous violinist and former concert-master of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Jo Juda.  Over the years the orchestra has grown and is now a proper symphony orchestra performing regularly in Hilversum, as well as providing the accompaniment for choral projects in and beyond the region.  Around 2/3 of the orchestra members live in "the Gooi", and the rest are happy to travel a bit further for the chance to play with the GSO.
