Luca Pettinato: Fiore di un giorno, for B-flat Clarinet, Violin, Cello and Piano

About this edition

Luca Pettinato’s Fiore di un giorno is scored for B-flat clarinet, violin, cello and piano. The composer’s introductory note evokes the fragile life of a flower that opens in the morning and falls by night.

The score explores clarinet multiphonics, varied string sonorities and a light preparation of the piano using a thin ball chain on the strings. Performance notes explain the notation and techniques employed.

If the separate instrumental parts are not included with the volume, digital copies may be requested free of charge from the publisher, as stated in the edition.
