Description

From album notes by Michele Mangani:

I am particularly gratified to introduce the first monograph dedicated to my chamber music for clarinet and piano.
The project was born in close collaboration with friends and colleagues Sergio Bosi and Riccardo Bartoli, a circumstance that gave the chance to fix in a very faithful way the compositional spirit of the whole program here presented.
Every technical and musical aspect has therefore been thought of as a group of pieces aimed at a unique musical experience.
The project covers a wide period of time and includes several compositional styles, ranging from the academic of the Sonata to the jazzy verve of Clarinettomania, passing through the melodic notes of songs such as Album page, Theme for clarinet and Romanza.
I wish to stress that most of the compositions are in the first absolute recording, a courageous choice of the publisher to whom I express a special thanks. (Translation by Fabiana Binarelli)
