Premiered at the Teatro della Scala under director Carlo Rizzi and clarinet soloist Dimitri Ashkenazy, the piece was commissioned by the same theater for the symphonic season of 1994/95. The clarinet concerto is the composer's homage to the American cinema, particularly the Western, in which the typical frames are in the piano americano (American shot) - from the knees to the head of the actor - to better visually narrate the tension between the characters in a duel. 'Twenty minutes of musical pleasure [...] a score ably calibrated and of notable sonorous impact' as called by Angelo Folletto in a review of the premiere at La Scala.

Composed in: 1994
