for clarinet and string quartet
This work has been composed in 1990 and is built on a free use of the 12-tone technique. In 2007 it was orchestrated for the Charlemagne Orchestra, for CLARINET & STRING ORCHESTRA .
The first part Furioso is composed of obsessive rhythms in which melodical phrases develop little by little.
After the quiet and slower second part Misterioso, Comodo takes off with a mechanical pizzicato by the 2 violins. Following some melodical arabesques by the clarinet, this movement ends with a cadense for the clarinet, which passes on to the lower register and dies out gradually.
The last part Deciso is getting into a huge climax, built up with unisono passages and finishes suddenly in a mysterious coda, in which percussion effects for the strings and multiphonics for the clarinet create a surprising ending.
