Chemins IIc<\/strong>
\nfor bass clarinet and orchestra (1972)<\/p>\n

The best way to analyse and comment on a musical work is to write another one using materials from the original work: a creative exploration of a composition is at the same time an analysis, a commentary and an extension of the original. The most profitable commentary on a symphony or an opera has always been another symphony or another opera. This is why my Chemins<\/em>, where I quote, translate, expand and transcribe my Sequenzas<\/em> for solo instrument, are also the Sequenzas<\/em>\u2019 best analyses. They are a series of specific commentaries which include, almost intact, the object and subject of the commentary. The Chemins<\/em> are not the displacement of an objet trouv\u00e9<\/em> into a different context or the orchestral \u201cdressing up\u201d of a solo piece (the original Sequenza<\/em>), but rather a commentary organically tied to it and generated by it. The instrumental ensemble brings to the surface and develops musical processes that are hidden and compressed in the solo part, amplifying every aspect, including the temporal one: at times the roles are inverted so that the solo part appears to be generated by its own commentary.
\nWhy this insistence on elaborating and transforming again the same material? It is, maybe, a tribute to the belief that a thing done is never finished. Even the \u201ccompleted\u201d work is the ritual and the commentary of something which preceded it, of something which will follow it, as a question that does not provoke an answer but a commentary, and another question…<\/p>\n

Chemins II<\/em>, for viola and nine instruments, was written in 1967 for Walter Trampler. From that work other \u201csolutions\u201d were later developed: Chemins IIb<\/em> for orchestra (1970) and Chemins IIc<\/em> for bass clarinet and orchestra (1972). These three Chemins<\/em> are related to each other something like the layers of an onion: distinct, separate, yet intimately contoured on each other; each new layer creates a new, though related surface, and each older layer assumes a new function as soon as it is covered. Chemins IIc<\/em> is the farthest layer from the original model. I developed in it a virtual melody which was implied in Chemins II, integrating and superimposing the bass clarinet as a soloist.<\/p>\n
