condition (record/cover): M/M (still sealed) An important survey of contemporary Italian clarinet repertoire! Distinguished clarinetist Gaspare Tirincanti presents works by leading Italian composers, documenting the rich output for clarinet in post-war Italian music. A remarkable program beginning with Gaetano Donizetti's Studio and Nino Rota's Sonata in Re, then moving into the contemporary avant-garde with Niccolò Castiglioni's Daleth, Alearco Ambrosi's Iara, Luciano Berio's landmark Sequenza IX per Clarinetto - one of the most important solo clarinet works of the 20th century - and Franco Donatoni's Clair. The program concludes with Tirincanti's own Clarinettologia, demonstrating his dual identity as performer-composer.
