Ricordanze

I composed my piece “Ricordanze” for clarinet and string trio in 1984. I wanted to write a one-movement piece of chamber music in which the clarinet would have a leading role.

I recommended it to my friend György Marton, who presented the work with his ensemble at the Trinitatis Church in Mannheim on November 23, 1985. This date is even more memorable for me, because the city of Mannheim organized three concerts for my 80th birthday. — Ferenc Farkas
