Eugene Bozza, French composer and conductor, studied at the Paris Conservatory, and won many awards for his violin playing, compositions, and conducting. Many of his larger works have been performed in France; however, internationally his reputation rests on his chamber music for winds. Bozza is especially sensitive to the idiosyncrasies of each instrument in his compositions.
Fantasie Italienne captures many moods of the clarinet. The piece is introduced by a huge cadenza which emphasizes dynamic levels and technical speed. A soft and gentle melodic line follows and sets the stage for various articulated passages. The piece concludes at a bright tempo and covers nearly the entire range of the clarinet. Duo Brillaner
